Your bidding on the limited release, 2-PW (9 irons) forged blade set built to the same specs, grind, weight, stampings, etc. as the set Tiger Woods used to win his early tour victories including the "Tiger Slam," where he held all 4 major golf championships at the same time. They couldn't stamp "Tiger" on the club because he was sponsored by Nike at the time he turned pro. He still played Titleist irons before Nike had its' golf division up and running. I'm not sure about this but I think the only difference between Tigers specs were he hit the "X-100" flex. Titleist produced this club to be played, not collected, and thus installed the much more marketable "S-400" flex. The two shafts are identical except the flex point in the S-400 is slightly lower.This club design produced the "Tiger Slam" of 2000-2001. They are traditionally spec'd, compact, thin-topline blades with minimal offset. They also produced such phenomenon as the "stinger" 2-iron, a laser like, low flying bullet that traveled about 260 yards down the middle of the fairway... A very handy shot to have for those golf courses that have not yet been "Tiger-Proofed."It's very difficult to put a price on this set. There were only a couple of thousand sets produced for worldwide distribution in 2001. Like stated eariler, this set was sold by Titleist and meant to be played by the best amatuers and professionals. You may find an occasional well-used set but I haven't seen a set like this anywhere on the internet, ever! I challenge you to try and find another set like this... And if you do, check out the price.And who is the customer for this set? Is it someone who wants to put it away and let the value continue to rise -OR- someone who strikes the ball so pure they want to play maybe the the best forged iron ever produced, with its thin top line and precise sweet spot. Who knows, maybe this person will pull the heads and reshaft and regrip, and change the loft and lie. Either way, it will be someone where money is no object...The price was set so as not to be greedy, yet at the same time, I am not having a "fire-sale" either. This has to be a win-win for both of us. So here goes... Good Luck!Here is some stuff found on the web...
