| I have one question for you regarding your wanting to switch to blades. How often do you mishit an iron shot during a round with your current cavity back irons? if you answer more than twice then leave the blades alone. The sweetspot on blades is far smaller than it is on CB irons. Do not get caught up in the BS that you can only work the ball with blades. I for one know you can work the ball with CB irons. If you don't that is possible then take a good hard look at the PRO's. Many of them do not use blades.
Don't get me wrong, I am not telling you to not buy them. I am saying that if you are not shooting in the 70's on a regular basis then do not waste your money on blades. I have been around this game for 25 years, so I am speaking with some experiece.
I own both blades and CB's. I am a single digit handicap. The majority of my rounds (last year 123 rounds) are played with the CB's. I own Wishon 550C irons which are forged CB's. They do not have as much offset as Pings, TM or Callaways etc. The cavity back is not all that deep. But they would still be considered CB's.
I own a set of forged blades, and everyone once in awhile I put the 8-9-PW in my bag.
So you decide what you want to play. Just remember that blades are not the most forgiving club you can swing.
