Hi All

 

cannot decide what to do.  Have swing speed 80-90mph with driver 

 

am am looking at either Honma Beres IS-06 with regular shafts or Gimar NRB2 with veylix alpine 673 regular.  Another thought was Edel single length irons.  At present play Hogsn pxt with recoil regular shafts.  Length on 7 iron is 140 yards

 

any thoughts please

 

cheers

Hi

That's some seriously expensive irons you're looking at there but fair play to you, I'd do the same if I could be sure the wife wouldn't divorce me.

With regards to the single length irons from my own experience it was not a smooth transition. I naively believed they would instantly improve my game but I really struggled with the low irons (4,5 & 6), lost yardage and gapping and it's only after many trips to the range that I'm now getting close to my old irons. With hindsight I probably should have gone with a new variable set but I'm stubborn so I'll continue with these The Edels are very expensive to realise that the concept may not really suit you but that's not to say they won't, I'd advise trying them first.

Hope this helps.

Zenith, because of the money you would spend on Honma, I would suggest a trip to Club Champion or Golftec to get fitted. Yes, it will cost $300 or so, but it's better to spend that, than to waste $1000s.

    • @colin007, in terms of realistic sci-fi, its the best ever. They actually had an astrophysicist consult on the movie to be as accurate as possible with what we know about the universe.  For like dystopian, Blade Runner is probably king. Action/suspense is probably Alien/Aliens. Though Starship Troopers is fantastic. The Matrix is amazing.  
    • Day 4 (August 14).  Full swing in my indoor practice room;  6-iron, off a mat, into a net.  Focus was on what I believe was my priority piece at last lesson (which, admittedly, was almost three years ago, due to absence).  I hit about a dozen balls this morning before going into the office.  (Also, errata to yesterday:  9 of the 12 coins were picked up on the second or third go around -- you can't pick up one on the first go around for that drill)
    • Watched The Gentlemen, took a little bit to get into it, but very good Guy Ritchie movie.  Collin Farrell and Hugh Grant were great. Give it a birdie.
    • Played in the Rhode Island CC Senior Member guest, my partner and I won the tournament. 2-day Stableford format, we ended with 104 points, won by 7. Points include 2 holes on each 9, where both players score count, can make up some points if you both play well on those holes.  @DaveP043has played a similar format (I played with Dann from RICC).   
    • Played Wannamoisett CC on Monday.  What a neat old Donald Ross course, Par 69.  The conditions were immaculate, might be one of the best maintained courses, I've played.
