Hi tom, I got some iron heads in a nice wooden box with Wishon on the outside top of the box. They are cb irons with an unusual color.Their is a piece of tap on the inside of the box that says Pane Stewart design. The heads do not have a model number but have Tom Wishon on the heads. Could you give some info on these heads? Thanks
JOE Well how about that!! Where’d you get these iron heads in the box? I’m just curious. This was our first venture to create a Limited Edition set of heads as a special offering. The 555C iron heads you have were our very first such Ltd Ed set, done in a pine box with the logo and company name and each head put in a foam internal holder for presentation and protection. I’m trying to remember when we did this first one – 2005 or so I think. We did this every five years – the Ltd Edition for 2010… Read more »
Hello Tom! I’ve gotten my hands on a set of 550c and they’re about the best clubs I’ve ever hit! According to alot of people I’m not supposed to be able to play blades, but I’m doing really well. I love them! The thing is, I fear they’re getting a little old, and I’ve been looking to buy a new set of irons, but I’ve yet to come across a modern club, blade or otherwise that I like more. So I looked up the origin of your clubs (I didn’t know much about you or your clubs beforehand tbh) just… Read more »
JOHAN Thanks very much for your message. It’s fun to hear that you discovered the 550C’s which were our very first forged carbon steel iron design that debuted in spring 2003 and stayed in the product line until 2008. The current cavity back forging that we offer is the 575MMC Cavity Back. It is forged from the same exact carbon steel as the 550C and all other manufacturing processes are the same from a metallurgical sense. The 575 is however a little smaller in overall head size compared to the 550C. Not a lot but to the discerning eye, it… Read more »
Mr. Wishon, Just thought I should report. In order to sell more product, I felt I should be playing it. Well the driver, a 919 9* is twenty yards longer and more accurate than my Bridgestone 445. The fairway 3 and 5 929 also much better. 560 irons excellent. I am now going try the Micro wedges. I am also going to build a smooth 7 putter.I use the arm anchor style. I have developed a system where by I can build to the specs that account for the added loft and shaft off set needed for this style by… Read more »
Gerald Thanks so much for taking the time to post your comments of your experience in having fit yourself with our designs. That’s really great news to hear that the clubs are performing better for you than your previous clubs!!!!! News like this is always a great way for us to get a big smile on our faces here at Wishon GOlf. And I have to think that the performance might have brought a little bit of a smile to you as well !!! Thanks so much for your support and we wish you all the best as you tell… Read more »
This is a fantastic iron for the better player wanting some forgiveness in his irons. Nice traditional look at address, great feel and performance. Best of all it can be matched with the 555M to provide a custom forged set where the golfer wants some forgiveness in the longer irons but the feel of a blade in the shorter irons.
