What are the best game improvement irons?

I am not a great golfer and usually score between 90 and 100. I have a set of Ping G425 irons. They feel good, look good, and sound nice. I can hit them consistently long and fairly accurate. They are the best part of my game.

I’ve tried some forged irons and more advanced player irons, but they don’t feel any better to me. The heads are smaller and more compact. About half of my shots with them feel great and accurate, but the other half are slightly off-center and lose performance and feel. These irons are definitely harder to hit than the larger and more forgiving game improvement irons. If I used these other irons regularly on the course, I wouldn’t enjoy the game as much.

With new technology making game improvement irons softer and longer, why wouldn’t more low handicap players want to use them? For me, the Ping G425 iron is the right choice. But why would I want to make golf harder by choosing a less forgiving club?

Club selection is largely a matter of personal choice.
