New irons, can't hit my 7 but the other clubs are great

I just bought a set of G25 (5-U).  I had them fitted for me and almost all of my clubs are great.  My 7i has been giving me trouble however, as I push sliced it 4 out of the 7 balls I hit with it yesterday.  I tried to close my face on set up and hooked 2/7.  I hit around 7 balls with each of my new clubs, and all of the other clubs fit me like a glove

My question is h ave you ever gotten a bad club when you got a new set of irons?  Is it all in my head?  I will be at the range again today to see if this was just a blip.

It's possible that the MOI (heft) of that particular club is different from the rest of the set for some reason. Often it's something minor like a grip not being seated all the way. But it can make a huge difference to how it feels in your hand and how you actually hit it.

Have your lofts and lies checked. The lie may be off on your 7-iron. While they are checking, have them check for swing weight and overall weight and grips as said above.

From what I hear, it is pretty common to get a set with a club or two a bit off spec. A little off spec can give you fits.

Then again, it could be the archer and not the arrow. You may have just gotten into a mental loop that has you blocked on that club. But, eliminate any excuses by have your clubs checked.

Maybe you were just reading it upside down and it's actually your lob wedge? ;)

Otherwise, take rusty's advice and get them checked against their specs.

Have it checked for loft and lie, AND

give a club maker your 8i and 7i, and check the CPM's for consistency between irons/flex

It's happened to me a couple of times ... one iron too stiff in comparison with the remainder of the set.
