TAKOMO 18 MONTH REVIEW | IS HIGH HCP GOLFER HAPPY HE BOUGHT TAKOMO IRONS?... 

You do realize that clickbait titles and taking forever to get to the point is a sure way to ensure people stop watching and unsubscribe?

Great video Gary always nice to get a review from a higher handicapper for a change all irons look good when you or James are using them so a thumbs up from Rob is a good sign

I got my 101s after James' video and sold my Callaway Rogues. I hit these Takomos so much straighter than I ever did. I've been loving them

I got my 101 set ten months ago and I love them

Nice to get a review of the clubs and to see the condition they're in after 18 months. It's always risky to take a chance on something like this but it looks to have paid off. Keep the videos coming they're always a pleasure to watch. By the way we're you playing with a headless golfer on minute 5.57😮

I absolutely love my 301 combo I got at the beginning of the season I've went from 43 to 26.1 on my handicap so far can see it easily being in the mid teens by end of the season. I switched from callaway rogue

Good vid. You edited it so I looked half decent. Lol cheers mate.

7 handicaper,had my 101's for 18mths to and they're fantastic,,,no ego to use more expensive or smaller heads....its scores that count.

I'm looking forward to the Takomo - Caley comparison. I've had a set of Takomo 201's for over a year, and I want to replace them for another set with graphite shafts. Probably the 101T or 301C.

Lovely guy Rob and I’m looking forward to watching him test the CALEY irons with the graphite shafts, great win as well Rob 👏👏

I bought the 101t after watching many reviews, especially Mr Robinson and must say I love them, never struck the ball so well I just wished they would do combie sets because the low iron's 4 and 5 I do sometimes struggle and would like the 101 in these clubs

And they look nice too. 👍

Gary, could you do a video of the new ram irons? Only £299. Probably using the new Vice putter. Great video 👍

Well done gaz 😊

I jumped on the Takomo bandwagon after watching James, the Bryan Bros (only Wesley at the time) and others use them. I got the 101Ts. After a few outings using them I determined they just aren't for me. They are small and don't have enough heft behind them. They are good clubs that go an average distance, but they just don't give me confidence standing over them. I've since bought the Paradym irons off of the Callaway Preowned site for roughly the same price and they are amazing. Perfect irons for me.

I can't speak about the irons but I can graphite shafts. 3 hcp, age 57, driver SS 98-100 and played steel forever. Due to injury I wanted to get another fitting. Based on data of strikes, consistency, etc. Speed was still where it was before. I could continue with Modus 3 105s, Stiff or move to a softer feeling Recoil graphite shaft. It plays a tad stiff so went into regular flex. Hitting the ball best in years. The feel of the shafts with Mizuno 923 forged irons what I can say is never felt better.

Love my 101s

Takomo do offer custom options including graphite shafts or heads only but they could do with offering individual irons or short sets as not everyone wants 4-PW. It would increase sales if they did.

Thank you for bringing up graphite shafts. I need graphite as well, and that is the reason I have not ordered Takomo.

I am interested in Takomo but fear buying sight unseen. How is their offset? I hit a natural draw with my irons.

Id play them just based on the nsx widebody racecar. Japan youve got style baby

There are so many 2nd hand clubs out there these days you can virtually get whatever spec/model/even shaft/loft/lie combo… if you know what you like I reckon that’s the best value route. But others just enjoy trying the latest and greatest like any other hobby. But I think going in with the expectation realistically it’s not going to improve your scores.. just your confidence (which can help scores no doubt)

In Cincinnati,just got my 101’s 3 Day’s ago .was Impressed with the packing first of all every club bubble wrap on the iron heads and they were in foam cube ,shafts wrapped and grips seperately wrapped .Totally protected from China to Ohio!! Beautiful irons ,played yesterday and have had Mizuno’s and have an set of King Cobra forged tech and these just feel so Buttery and great Distance and I can work them either way ! Just Amazing product for the price !!!!!!!!

I had a set of the 101s but sold them as they only seemed to go low and left for me. Now playing fitted Wilson D9 forged and they are a big improvement (for me) Takomo make good irons for sure but the lack of custom fit is a deal breaker (for me)

I just bought some 101’s and I like the so far

i have 101s and i switched back to my 10 year old package set irons .. kinda disappointed maybe they just arent for me

I’m very interested in this brand, I need most of the middle of my bag replacing soon, wedges and irons are near 15 years old now.

Gary what make & model glasses are you wearing ? Like them & fancy a pair of

i have not bought a set of new irons since 2003. used and not fit for me. I went with Gen5 pxg when they had them on sale around Christmas. 899 for GW - 4i. little more than tacomo but i did get a quality fitting experience. Takomo was def on the list tho

Ahhh haha I have been playing my cobra F7 irons and a Bertha and sldr driver I play. Odessey putter from same time 2017-2018 era and I play 4-5 rounds a week. Shoot in low 80’s and sometimes break into the 70’s. It’s not the clubs. It is the person holding them. The gun doesn’t shoot, the person holding it does. The club doesn’t swing good nor bad.. the person holding it does!

So glad i got out of buying the latest and greatest equipment. Wasted so much money lol. " its not me it must be the clubs " no more 😁

I believe that Takomo and Caley golf irons may be made by the same foundary. They look identical.

Takomo are sponsoring Golf Mates channel. I will stick with Ping as I’ve played them years and if it isn’t broke you don’t mend it and they are half hour away. Takomo look good though.

those putting stands will miss left most of the time lol why do it?

Just out of interest did you hit his takomos or your clubs gary???

Not wearing too bad after 18 months. They look as good as my Callaway X12s their only 25 years old lol

From all James's videos and now your review, these do seem like a good deal for the money, instead of the £1000+ sets out there now. I went middle off the road with my Wilson D9 Forged, an over the moon with them so far 🏌️

Im surprised how big the sole is. This is the first time I've seen anyone really show them up close on the video. They normally only show them at address. I was thinking about buying a set but that sole has me concerned.

I’ve had my eye on Takomo for years. They might be cheaper but I still can’t just drop 500 bones like that. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Did you just do a Takomo 101 review using 2 total iron shots !?!?!? I saw those gushing reviews on the 101's for the last few years and I finally pulled the trigger on a set. Total nightmare. I played 6 full rounds with them carding my worst scores ever and I'm a 4 handicap. I'm getting older so I thought I could get a few more yards out of these. I take divots (2 degree down strikes) and these are the worst turf interaction I've ever tried. Even center strikes felt clanky and muted. I asked to try my buddies g425 irons and shot 2 over par the next time we went out. I went to a used club site the next day and bought a set of used g425's for $400 shipped. It's been 2 months now and I haven't looked back. And the irons you see Bryan brothers playing (and other RU-vidrs) are the 301's which are more of a cavity or muscle blade.

golfmates have just been sponsored by takomo

Takomo is garbage. After 20 months my 101T irons will not create any spin, hit low shots, and will not hold a green. They are made of cheap metal and the grooves collapse. I even used a groove tool to clean and in hopes for deeper groove but no go. Don’t buy clubs from a half ass cheap Finnish company made in a Chinese none quality control factory.

takomo is chunk! l fell for this crap and l should have known better. l bought a set and what a piece of shyt3 it is!!!!! Never trust a u tuber trying to sell anything!

Bring it on! ⛳🏌
