That's very interesting, as I have a set of the original Nike Blades, and looking into it my Wedge is at 49 degrees, which would explain why I've noticed little difference between it and my 52, and why I tend to take an iron more than everyone further up the bag. I think this also means I can look to drop my pitching wedge which means I can put my 2 iron back in the bag, which is a result.
On the wedges, don't suppose yo have tried the Nike SV's and know how these SCOR wedges compare? I do love my SV's, bu the hosel is starting to break on the 56, so I may be looking to swap.
//edit...looking into it my 6 iron has 33 degrees of loft! Exactly your 7?

No problem!
My PW is 46 degrees. 49 degrees is normally a gap wedge loft.
My lofts are nicely gapped now:
4 iron @ 24
5 iron @ 27
6 iron @ 30
7 iron @ 33
8 iron @ 37
9 iron @ 41
PW @ 46
GW @ 50
SW @ 55
LW @ 60
That was one of the reasons I liked the i25's - their lofts were realistic in relationship to the iron.
For example TM Speedblades have 7 irons set with 30.5 degrees of loft - a normal 6 iron! No wonder they're a 'distance' iron!

Interestingly, you clubs are still 1/2 a club longer than ,mine (2deg per club)Wilson FG62's
Just goes to show that the number on the club is only relevant to the person hitting them .
Played yesterday, enjoyed a really good first 9, chickened out on an eagle putt. Back 9 was a disaster, the rain came, but everything went to pot.
Also noticed I have a very sore little finger on my right hand today, (I'm right handed) not changed grip or anything but something's obviously caused it.

have any of you suffered with back back, more specifically sciatic nerve or disc issues?
Yes a few years ago terrible constant nagging pain down one side . A friend of mine is a physio he recommended a Swiss Ball and I followed the DVD for a few weeks and I have never had the problem since.Get yourself along to a physio.
