I'm looking for a set of quality irons that will hopefully improve my consistancy in the fairways.

I have a very high ball flight, but a lower ball flight isn't necessary with my irons since I hit them a little further than I'd like. I hit my 4-iron as far as my 5-wood, and hit the PW ~135, which leaves a problem for shots under 115.
I usually hit the irons solidly, but have a moderate draw/hook on most shots.
I know that part of the problem is the regular flex shafts on my current set, since my swing requires a stiff flex.

I'm looking for game improvement, but I feel uncomfortable with a huge sole.
I was considering used Ping G2's, Callaway X-16's, Mizuno MX-17's, and Cleveland CG4's.
These all can be found around $300-400. Durability is very important to me, since I plan on keeping this next set for several years.
Of these, or any other irons in this range, which would fit my needs the best?

PS. I guess I should add that I'm left handed, and it can be hard to get my hands on some sets.

Any advice would be appreciated
