I noticed that KZG is now selling a cavity back version of the Evolution
irons. Other than being able to adjust the lofts (and having them get
out of whack more easily on their own) do you really think there's any
advantage to forged irons? I suspect that any differences in feel between
forged and cast irons are probably due to the fact that historically, cast
clubs are cavity back and forged are blades. If they were identical I
doubt it would be possible to feel the difference....if so, is there any
difference other than bendability?
