He is currently in the lead of a tournament he is in and he plays Edel irons that are ALL 37.5" long.  This is basically seven iron length.  Watch until the end of the video and take a look at his very upright swing as well.

Saw a story this morning about his new Augusta/Masters themed irons, where he nicknamed all of them (and had them stamped with said nickname) something to do with Augusta or the Masters... I

I don't either. A 3I head, because it's usually on a longer shaft, is much lighter than a SW head. So if you make them all the same length you have to add weight to a 3I (and possibly remove it

Interesting stuff -- that Edel putter is a wild one-off.

Talk about custom fit!

Saw his name mentioned on the 1irongolf.com website, didn't realize he was still in college? His irons are all the same length. I opted to have 5-PW at 37.25 and 52/56/60 at 35.5 inches.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

So i wonder if this will bring about a change in how people look at the length of each of their irons....

It might if they want to swing how he does.  His woods appear to be longer so I'm curious how his swing changes to accommodate the added length and why that's different from irons.  I'd also think that on his lower lofted irons (3,4,5,6) that the lofts have to be jacked to compensate for the shorter shaft lengths otherwise he'd be giving up some distance with them.

Not a new idea... been around for quite some time. I've thought about it only because it means one swing and less to think about. He probably has a bit of variation in the lie angles but not much. A bit more yardage for the wedge end and a bit less on the long iron end. Again, variations in loft may make up for some of that, but most pro's would have the same tweaks anyway.

Not for me, I don't have the one plane swing though. I use my single length irons with a classic two plane setup.

Just wondering if anyone else saw this. I've never seen a golfer on TV playing Edel equipment, but thought this community might appreciate it. Looks like he uses Edel irons, wedges, and a putter.

I've never seen a golfer play ( and win) with all their irons 37.5 inches long either.

I'm confused here? Whose irons were all the same length?

And his irons aren't numbered, they just have the lofts printed on them. That seems like a good idea to me, make it easier to compare clubs and prevent manufacturers from gaming distances.

I'm not sure on the lengths though, I assume there's a valid reason that loft and length move in opposite directions for a standard set of clubs but then it also makes sense that hitting the same length club would improve consistency then loft would change the distance on each club.

Hmmm. Ok. I've heard of this concept, but in the whats in his bag part it just said cavity back Edel irons. When I searched for those clubs, they were all different length irons. I didn't see the part of the article where his clubs are all the same length?

      Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!

      LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.
