What are your thoughts on the above irons for a high handicap player. Would they be as forgiving as the Ping G15? I want something new and shiny, as my Pings are 10 years old. What year are the Titleist AP1’s from? Thanks

I had the 716 AP1. They are forgiving. I would suggest trying their new version to get a feel for them. The 718 will be very similar.

I found them to very forgiving. I can’t comment on how comparable they are to the G15’s, but even bad mishits generally stayed on target and didn’t lose a crazy amount of distance.

      Approach Play to Elevated / Lowered Greens?

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Where do you tend to miss it? When the green is below you, the ball is spending more time in the air, so to the extent that side spin is making it move one way or the other, it has more time to do that and therefore will be affected more. That's why it's so dang hard to hit a fairway that's a long way below you. When the ground gets in the way it stops the slice/hook spin from moving the ball away from the middle. If you play, let's say, a fade, then you want to aim further to the left to allow the fade to move the ball further. That also means if you play for a fade and don't hit a fade you're going to miss by more than you would if the green was at the same level.  I think the person who brought this up is trying to limit the impact of that by hitting it lower so the ball doesn't spend as much time in the air. If that's not how you normally hit it and you haven't practiced it, then it's likely going to be more detrimental than just figuring out how to deal with your normal shot.
