Im stuck between these two as well. Anyone have thoughts?

Im playing at about 100 usually right now, would like to be able to make more consistent contact with the ball if that helps...

Wow an old thread but
Diablo line replaces the Big Bertha line, they are marketed towards high handicappers.
The x-22's will have thinner top lines and narrower soles, although these are forgiving they are designed for better players.

Scvbrent: You need to try the clubs. It's the only way to tell which set you will like. I will ad. That the Adams Os sets(a3os, a7os, etc...) are very very good on mishits.

I purchased the Diablo Edge Irons about a month ago from Golfsmith. I tried both the Diablo Edge and X-22 irons (among others) with the launch monitor and the pro who was helping me said, with the Diablo's I was putting less sidespin on the ball and hitting the ball about 5-10 yards further. I'm guessing the deeper cavity back makes them more forgiving, if you occasionally hook or slice the ball, and adds a little distance.

I've had them for about a month and have gone from shooting around 100 to low 90s/high 80s. I attribute some of that improvement to the clubs and some to improving my overall game.

The Diablo's are the replacement for the Big Bertha series, a super game improvement iron. The X22's are the previous offering in the Callaway X series, which is classified as game improvement. You list your handicap as 6, so I would guess the X22's may be a better fit for you, but both are good clubs. You may want to check out the Diablo Forged, a really nice set for people who want a more "player" type club.

      Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.

      Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.

      Looking for a Possible Equipment Switch

      By WUTiger · Posted

      You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
