1960.0. "Cleveland V.A.S Irons" by STRATA::SZEWCZYK () Mon Oct 24 1994 03:30

    Hi Folks,,,
    
        Does anyone know very much about the Cleveland V.A.S irons that
        Corey Pavin plays and advertises for? I checked them out and they 
        look like they'd play well. They run about 500 a set.
    
        I wondered how they'd compare to Pings or Tommy Aaron's??
    
    
                                             Thanks,,,,, Vic

1960.1I could hit them, but I'm no expert!MSBCS::GALVINR.T. Galvin, PKO2 223-2625Mon Oct 24 1994 11:089
    I spent 2 weeks in Fla earlier this year with a guy who carries a 3
    handicap.  He was using a new set of VAS, and although he like the
    club, he sold them after the first week.  The only reason for him
    getting rid of them was that everything was pushing to the right.  This
    guy can hit the ball wherever he wants, so for the club to pushing
    right on him, didn't sit well.  In any case he has gone back to Zings
    and DCI's as his regular clubs.

    They have to be just about the UGLIEST clubs ever...
1960.3Very Ugly!MSBCS::GALVINR.T. Galvin, PKO2 223-2625Wed Oct 26 1994 11:104
    With that LOGO on the club, it isn't a club that you will keep over the
    years.  It looks wierd now....Imagine handing these clubs down to you
    kid 15 years from now.  They would look so out of place, compared to a
    normal looking golf club.

    *** They have to be just about the UGLIEST clubs ever...
    
    That's exactly the reason I like them.  They make my Zing 2's almost
    look decent...
    
1960.5FOR ME, VAS'S ARE THE BEST!STOWOA::BBAKSTRANWed Oct 26 1994 18:4210
    I have been playing golf about ten years and have used the same set
    of clubs that entire time. For my wedding anniversary (Sept) my wife 
    surpised me with a set of VAS's. I LOVE THEM! They immediately cut 3-5 
    strokes of my game. Two weeks after owning them I shot the BEST round of my
    life. I would highly recommend them. The sweet spot on the club is
    extremely large. And, the "Vibration Assistance System" really works. I
    described hitting a ball to a friend recently as "feeling like I was
    hitting a marshmellow!". As for how they look; I don't think my son
    would be as concerned about the look of the club as he would be with
    how he hit them. And, I think he would be very pleased!

    Hi Guy's
    
       I kinda like that purple ceramic look on the back of the club face
       myself.  They are kinda flashy,,,,but i like flashy things.
       I guess it really doesn't matter what they look like as long as
       they shave a few strokes from my game.
    
       Besides i think almost everyone that can afford it plays Pings.
