How important is club loft spacing to you? Does it really matter if the spacing is uneven or are you happy enough knowing how far you hit each club?
The main reason I ask is that I'm unsure on what to do with my new irons.
My old Nike Sumo SQ's had the following loft spacing between clubs:
|
CLUB |
#4 | #5 | #6 | #7 | #8 | #9 | #PW | #SW |
| LOFT | 23 | 26 | 30 | 34 | 38 | 42 | 46 | 55 |
I added 3 Titleist Vokeys with 4 degrees of loft between each of them to make the set more consistent:
| CLUB | #4 | #5 | #6 | #7 | #8 | #9 | #PW | #AW | #SW | #LW |
| LOFT | 23 | 26 | 30 | 34 | 38 | 42 | 46 | 50 - 8 bounce | 54 - 11 bounce | 58 - 8 bounce |
With my new Yonex VMS's though the lofts are stronger by 0.5 to 2.5 degrees per club right up to the #AW which is the same.
The question I'm faced with then is whether I should keep as much of the 'set' of irons together as possible and use the set #AW and #SW, removing the #LW from my bag as 2 degrees doesn't seem worth carrying or do I keep the Vokeys and not use the set #AW and #SW?
For reference the VMS lofts are:
| CLUB | #4 | #5 | #6 | #7 | #8 | #9 | #PW | #AW | #SW |
| LOFT | 22.5 | 25.5 | 28.5 | 31.5 | 35.5 | 39.5 | 45 | 50 | 56 |
