Made a little impulse decision today, figure I'll do some research now. I currently own MX23s with Stiff Dynalite Golds, and picked up a set of MP 52s with Project X 5.5s. I like the MX23s, but sometimes feel like I'm ballooning the stock shafts, and they can be a litte inconsistent when I feel like I put a good swing on the ball. I picked up the 52s for a ridiculously low price, and think they're a nice club. However, they are a little much for me on days when I'm not hitting the ball well, shots off the toe or a bit thin lose distance moreso then the 23s. Not in love with the Project X either, as many people have reported, they can be a little harsh especially in cold weather. I swing a 6i 88-89mph and still feel like I have to go after them to get the most out of these shafts.

Ran out to GG during lunch and they had a set of used White Dot i10s in a 5i-SW set, with AWT stiff shafts for a great price. These interested me as I liked them last year when I was looking for my first set (ended up with the MX23s because they were cheap). I've been wanting to go with a 1/2" long set as well (which these i10s are compared to the Mizunos), because I have a 37" wrist to floor measurement and longer clubs feel a little better to me the few times I've hit them. Anyway, I put the clubs on hold and will pick them up at the end of next week.

My guess is the i10s play pretty similar to the MX23s, but wanted to see if anyone has personal experience with the sets I've listed, and differences between them? They felt extremely solid hitting in the simulator (just based on feel, ignored the numbers).

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
