Just wondering I have a set of cally x24s I also have a pursuit forged MB 7 iron 36 degree lofty My cally 7 iron is 31 degrees Why when hit both pure do I get 10-15 yards more distance with the pursuit MB And just seems more accurate then the x24 Any thoughts

Today's manufacturers are SOOO focused on distance, that club lofts tend to get stronger and stronger every year. Some people will tell you as CoG changes so to does the need for the loft to get lower so the ball flight stays at roughly the same, but it is true, yesterday's 9 iron is today's PW. As for why you hit the mb further on the best shots, I can't answer that. But remember, unless you struggle for distance, it really doesn't matter how far you hit clubs, just how accurate. A good golfer that hits a 7 iron 140 at the pin is still going to score better than the guy who hits a 9 iron the Same 140 but ends up in the trap.

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

For whatever reason a MB look helps you hit it better.  Do you have a hard time hitting the ball high?

No problems hitting ball high. I hit the MB flush and good distance it's predictable I know it's going where I want I tested theory today I teed off on a couple holes and the MB long and straight. My x24 were straight but no feel at all like hitting and hoping. I feel as it is time to fill the rest of the order

    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting. 
    • Day 96 (18 Mar 24) - Continued work with the Divot Board with the GW and hard foam balls.  Focused on small target/small miss…setup to hit target about 30yds out - success if it hit within 6’ circle of target, fail if outside.  Had decent success averaging about 3 out of 4 (hitting in groups of four).

    • I'm relieved someone finally defined hiking. I was giddy when I saw these new TPI videos a day or so after they dropped. Very easy to understand the problem and solution the way they have presented it. Been working on fixing this for about a year and a half now. It's nice to be able to call it something so communication becomes easy.  I was working on more lateral and up too, but just having someone define it clearly in video form was so helpful for me to continue confidently with what I thought was wrong and how I had to fix it.  My conceptual error here was just trying to rotate like a tour pro but without including the necessary forward pressure/weight shift associated with enough lateral and upward motion of the pelvis.  This video is great too, as is Greg Rose.
    • Day 2.    couple mins of rolling putts end over end.    10 mins of Slow, mirror work, working on starting the downswing and impact wrist positions. Hit a couple balls into the net after.    Then finished with a couple chips to see if I could repeat what I worked on yesterday.
