I have a set of 690 MB irons that I bought when they first came out. I paid $999. Gawd they were pretty when they were new! I am considering getting some new irons. I will probably just trade them in at Golf Galaxy, but I don't know how much they would give me for them.

These iron puppies have been put to a lot of use. Since keeping track as of 2005 using my golf site I have entered 300 scores (187 18 hole rounds). They all have the original grips except the 9 iron (replaced after removing a vibration dampener that came loose).

I could use these irons for another several years just as they are. They are great clubs. I just like new toys every now and then.
