That's not that hard. A lot of times you can text them to your email. Or if you have a fancier phone you probably have a cable that connects it to your computer.

most long hitters here on the forum would hit a 4 iron 200 meters..
There is no way you can shape a hybrid better than a blade, in the same way you can't shape a muscle back iron better than a blade.,..
On a sweet-spot hit, it's just about at easy to shape any club out there. What matters most is blade length, not if it's a hybrid or blade.
Also, a blade is a muscle back. They're the same thing.

Titleist do a driving iron with extra cavity too.
remember if your in play with your first shot, you will have a good chance of greens in regulation. nothing wrong with hitting an iron off the tee, some courses are designed that way for a placement first shot.
My home course was designed by ian baker finch and Roger McKay and is a tough links set up and requires a good placement drive at 225 meters for at least 7 holes out of the 18..
So he of the 36 handicap he demeaning the ballstriking abilities of everyone who can't hit a 1 iron? Do you realize how few people in the world hit a 1 iron, or even a 2 iron?

You don't get momentum through the ball with your 1 iron? Or you just don't know what momentum means?

When you hit a fade or a draw, you don't do it by hitting it off the toe or heel.

Clubhead speed means literally nothing when it comes to ballstriking.
