Ben Sayers M8 utility
Review Date: 9th August 2008
Design and Tech Benefits
The weight screws in the rear are designed to improve balance, reduce clubhead distortion at impact and help enlarge the sweetspot. A wide head design is intended to make it easier to achieve a more consistent contact from a variety of lies.
Golf Monthly Verdict
Generates a fairly low ball flight but still achieves plenty of distance. It has a fairly large and heavy head for a utility and this can make it slightly more difficult to power through the rough.

I have all four lofts of this club in my bag and they have transformed my game. I have always struggled with five irons and lower, but have no trouble with these. To be fair I cannot rate them against other hybrids, I only know that the first one I purchased just sat nicely and felt right.
I have gradually added the others and now the longest iron in my bag is a six iron. The 26 degree loft compares to a five iron, and the 17 degree to a two iron. I have never had a two iron and rarely ever used a three iron. Well our course is 64000 yards from the yellow tees and now I do use the 17 degree, and the 20 degree (three iron equiv) is my third most used club behind my putter and driver.

This is an excellent club!
I only have the 17 deg at the moment but I'm waiting for the 23 deg to drop through my door any day.
Fantastic off the tee as well as the fairway, it has helped my game immensely as I struggle with my woods off the deck, but with this I feel confident. It looks good behind the ball, not too complicated a design and inspires confidence of a good clean strike. Off the tee it is amazing, long straight penetrating drives.
it is defintely the first club i go to on tight or narrow holes. I just know I will have no worries hitting the fairway.

Played three rounds with it so far and will not take it out of the bag. Gives me the confidence I lacked with the 3 & 4 irons. Birdied our 516 yard par 5 for the 1st time in 3 years. For the price, less than £30.00 for this gem of a club, quality value for money.
