Let's be honest, no need for a 1 iron today.
Gonna disagree. I carry what is basically a 2 iron strictly for hitting longer punch shots from the trees. It's the same loft as my hybrid, but I can't keep a hybrid down. I'd like to see the baw hit his one iron.

What you going to take out of your bag? I would rather have another scoring club...like an extra wedge.

Carrying a club specifically to hit shots from under trees sounds like you need to work on driving and ditch the 2 iron for a scoring club.
I can hit a knee high punch shot with my 4i or 5i so I guess I don't even see the need for a 2i in that scenario.

Sounds like you need to work on blading more shots. Nothing keeps a ball lower than a good blading

I can actually swing the 1 very well.
It's the other clubs I can't swing worth a damn.

Had a ping eye2 1i and it was too inconsistent.
, something tells me it wasn't the club's fault.

Anyone here hit one and can chime in?
No, because there are other clubs I could use to get the same benefit, minus the risk. Getting a 1-iron is stupid.

I used to have an older Ping 1-Iron. I was very consistent with it and could hit it about 240-250 off the box. I didn't even carry a driver for about 2 years after the shaft in my old Titleist 975J broke.
I eventually replaced my driver and I replaced the 1-Iron with an 18° 5-wood. The 5-wood is a little more versatile for me. I can move it better and get a higher shot trajectory with it.

It's like trying to hit a golf ball with a hickey stick. What point does a 1 serve?

You can hit punch shots with a 4 iron or any club really.

You're 100% correct. I can't drive the ball off the tee for shite. I'd gladly give it up for another wedge, but my game just isn't in that place right now

I typically hit punch shots with my 7-Iron... I just deloft it and put it back in my stance.... no problem.

i'll contemplate the 1 iron after i can hit the 2 iron.
so that may be day after never.
