About the Tommy Armour 855s Silver Scot
The 855s Silver Scot followed the enormously successful 845s as Tommy Armour's flagship cavity-back, announced in late 1994 and sold through the mid-to-late 1990s. It kept the 845s formula — investment-cast stainless steel, perimeter weighting and progressive offset behind a relatively traditional profile — while enlarging the head slightly and varying the cavity depth through the set to keep the centre of gravity consistent. Lofts are identical to the 845s catalog spec (36-degree 7-iron), but the set was built a quarter inch longer per club and the full range again ran from a 1-iron through the 48-degree pitching wedge, a 52-degree gap wedge and a 56-degree sand wedge.

Frequently asked questions
What is the loft of a Tommy Armour 855s Silver Scot 7-iron?
The Tommy Armour 855s Silver Scot 7-iron has a loft of 36 degrees, a lie of 61.5 degrees and a length of 37.25 inches — the same loft as the 845s catalog spec but built a quarter inch longer.
What is the difference between the Tommy Armour 845s and 855s?
The 855s is the 845s's successor, announced in late 1994. It kept the same investment-cast, cavity-balanced concept and identical lofts, but used a slightly larger head with varied cavity depths for consistent centre-of-gravity placement, and each club was built a quarter inch longer.
What wedges came with the Tommy Armour 855s?
The set ran through a 48-degree pitching wedge, a 52-degree gap wedge and a 56-degree sand wedge, all at a 63-degree lie.
Where it sits in the lineup
Introduced in 1994, the Tommy Armour 855s Silver Scot is a current game improvement set in the Tommy Armour range, with no replacement announced. It replaced the Tommy Armour 845s Silver Scot. New sets are built to the standard lofts, lies and lengths in the chart above, though a fitting can move any of them — so confirm the numbers on the order sheet. Used sets appear on eBay, 2nd Swing and Golf Avenue, and should be measured against this chart before buying.
- GolfClubSpec.com / Equip2Golf specification database (mirrored at qsponge.com, 'What is loft angle of Tommy Armour 855s Irons?') — full 1-iron-through-SW loft, lie and length chart as recorded here. Individual-club retail listings (2nd Swing, Mikes Golf Outlet, golfroots, eBay) corroborate the 24.5-degree 4-iron and the 2-PW-plus-wedges set makeup with True Temper steel shafts.
- Driving Range Heroes, 'Throwback Golf: Tommy Armour 855s Silver Scot Irons Review' — cast stainless cavity-back with oversized head, perimeter weighting, progressive offset and varied cavity depths for consistent CG placement; production dated to the mid-to-late 1990s; steel and graphite stock options.
- Year note: year_introduced 1994 is the announcement year, with retail volume in 1995 — the GolfWorks Maltby MPF chart (MPF_TOMMYARMOUR.pdf) lists the 855s Silver Scot under 1995, and this site's 845s entry records 1995 as the year its successor (this model) was announced. year_discontinued is null because no successor announcement is documented; the model was in practice out of the catalog by the late 1990s.
- Spec-provenance note: unlike the 845s entry (built from the 1988 factory catalog), no 855s factory catalog scan was available, so this chart follows the spec database; lofts match the 845s catalog exactly while lengths run 0.25 inch longer per club. Offset and bounce are not published in any consulted source and are omitted.
