And you thought they were cute and cuddly.

I realize the answer is "get fitted" but...

My playing partner is convinced that my '09 Callaway X-Forged irons (Graphite Stiff, +1/2") are too difficult for me to play. While I disagree with him I'm willing to humor him and check out some used irons that I could possibly replace them with. At this moment I'm looking at the TM Rocketbladesz or Wilson Staff D100.

I'm not a decent golfer by any means. I played varsity golf in high school and took lessons and was able to fade/draw on command back in the day. In the many years since then, I've lost that touch. My HC is 20 and my club speed is in the 90-100 range. I can hit my irons straight about 80% of the time however my miss hits are pretty bad. No real difference between my short and long irons, but I tend to hit my long irons slightly better.

Are there any other irons I should be looking at? If I'm going to upgrade I'm looking for something more on the forgiveness side than distance or control. I'm hoping to keep this under $250.

Also does anyone have any recommendations in the Northern VA area for lessons or to get fitted?
