post #19 of 23

the thing is though.... you don't see Tiger playing cast clubs. Yeah Ping is great, phenomenal, but Tiger woods has the stats.

Vokeys are cast. They sell pretty well (and are used by PGA Tour players more than any other wedges). You have outdated information about the quality of casting.

By that logic everybody should be playing Nike clubs and balls too ... Doesn't really make sense. Further, your argument isn't really that cast is bad, it's that manufacturers other than ping are bad at casting. That's two totally different things.

Lastly, to mention that Tiger plays forged and that he has the stats is to give a portion of the credit for those stats to forged irons. You think if Tiger preferred cast irons, he wouldn't be as good?

All im saying is that tiger uses forged irons. There has to be a reason why he does.
