About the Cleveland TA3 Form Forged
The TA3 Form Forged is the cavity-back half of Cleveland's 2000 Form Forged pairing, offering "increased forgiveness while maintaining the ability to work the ball" through a slight cavity and moderate perimeter weighting, with the patented Vibration Absorbing System (VAS) damping impact shock. It succeeded the late-90s cast TA3 and sold alongside the TA1 FF muscle back, gaining a GunMetal satin finish variant in 2001. Lofts are traditional — 34 degrees at the 7-iron and 46 at the pitching wedge — and Cleveland published the set 1-iron through sand wedge in steel, with Dynamic Gold standard. This record files it as a players iron per its forged better-player positioning; the task brief's game-improvement label fits the wide-soled TA5 and TA6 better. Note Cleveland's published PW lie of 65 degrees sits above the DW's 64 — recorded as printed.

Frequently asked questions
What is the loft of a Cleveland TA3 Form Forged 7-iron?
The Cleveland TA3 Form Forged 7-iron has a loft of 34 degrees, a lie of 62.5 degrees and a length of 36.75 inches.
What is the difference between the Cleveland TA1 and TA3 Form Forged?
Both are forged with traditional lofts, but the TA1 is a pure muscle back while the TA3 adds a slight cavity and moderate perimeter weighting — about two degrees weaker in the 7-iron on the TA1 (36 versus 34 degrees) and noticeably more forgiving on the TA3.
Is there more than one Cleveland TA3 iron?
Yes — a cast Tour Action TA3 appears in 1998-1999 records, and this forged TA3 Form Forged replaced it in 2000, later adding a GunMetal satin-finish version.
Finding a used set
The Cleveland TA3 Form Forged ran from 2000 to 2004 and is no longer in production, so the used market is the only source. Search the used listings on eBay, and check the loft and lie against the chart above before buying — sets this age have often been bent from standard.
