     They are the same exact stats, but if you can hold off just 3 more levels, there is also the L83 G20's for the same cost. Not quite as precise (1/2 dot less), and slightly lower yardage (215-110 vs 220-125), as well as 1/2 dot less spin, however, they are 1/2 more forgiving - with a slightly lower meter speed. I tried out the Speedblades over the Christmas weekend free rental, and there were too fast for me. Then only 2 more levels after that is the VForged irons with similar stats to the G20s, with 1/2 more precision and spin, and 5 more yards total (220-115) for only 5 more credits than the Speedblades.

    Taking a look at the profile with the clubs, I'd also recommend getting a 3rd wedge (the 200c/345c Ping ones would be good or the high level CG16's) - removing the hybrid in the process, and buying the Rossa or the L66 Ghost Spider. Then perhaps a longer wood (G20 @ L81).

    Used the Bladez from Master to Legend and liked them. They are (according to several other players) the second most accurate irons at WGT.  They were pretty consistent, in terms of performance - most WTF shots, upon reflection, were the operator's fault. If you buy them, you will not be making a mistake. I did not play the L75 irons - but tried the L85 Nike & felt that the Bladez were equal to (if not better than) the Nikes. If you buy them, send me a friend request for more info.
