Pro Modus\u00b3 Tour 105 steel shafts, this set bridges the gap between players-irons feel\/control and game-improvement forgiveness\u2014ideal for skilled amateurs or single-digit\/low-handicap golfers who still want a little more launch and forgiveness.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2135\" data-end=\"2277\">\n<p data-start=\"2137\" data-end=\"2277\">The fact that the set has been \u201cvery well looked after\u201d adds confidence for the buyer: minimal wear, good cosmetic condition, ready to play.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"2279\" data-end=\"2282\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"2284\" data-end=\"2305\">Fit &amp; Use Notes<\/h3>\n<ul data-start=\"2306\" data-end=\"3247\">\n<li data-start=\"2306\" data-end=\"2536\">\n<p data-start=\"2308\" data-end=\"2536\">Because the lie angle is upright by ~1\u00b0, this set is likely built for a golfer whose height\/wrist-to-floor or impact pattern suits that lie. If a buyer is flatter (toe low) with the Blue Dot lie, they may wish to re-check fit.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2537\" data-end=\"2813\">\n<p data-start=\"2539\" data-end=\"2813\">The shaft profile (Modus\u00b3 105) is on the heavier side (mid-100s grams) and higher trajectory\/spin than ultra-low spinning shafts \u2014 so the set suits a player who already has decent swing speed and wants a reliable premium shaft; it may be less ideal for very slow swingers.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2814\" data-end=\"3082\">\n<p data-start=\"2816\" data-end=\"3082\">Being a 5-iron through gap wedge set, a buyer will want to confirm gapping (5-iron loft, then 6, 7, 8, 9, PW, U). The i E1 specification list gives typical 5-iron length 38\u2033 and loft 26\u00b0 for standard build in men\u2019s right-hand.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3083\" data-end=\"3247\">\n<p data-start=\"3085\" data-end=\"3247\">Given the \u201cBlue Dot\u201d lie spec, if the buyer\u2019s wrist-to-floor or height is quite outside the typical Blue Dot zone, they may wish to adjust (lie\u2010bend) accordingly.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"3249\" data-end=\"3252\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"3254\" data-end=\"3284\">Listing Text (suggested)<\/h3>\n<blockquote data-start=\"3285\" data-end=\"4793\">\n<p data-start=\"3287\" data-end=\"3493\">For sale: Premium set of PING i Series E1 irons (Blue Dot +1\u00b0 upright) \u2013 7 clubs (5-iron through gap wedge) in <strong data-start=\"3398\" data-end=\"3421\">excellent condition<\/strong>.
