The S58s, S59s, or these new S57s will be fairly difficult to be consistent for a beginner. However, there are exceptions, so don't rule out giving them a try. As far as the way they look, they look awesome. I've been a fan of the first two models and this one looks to be just as nice if not nicer. I'm sure we'll have them at the pro shop whenever they come out!

The red s57 logo looks a bit tacky to me but other than that those are probably some of the nicest looking irons to come out of late. They almost look forged.

Check them out

Yeah, they look a lot like the Titleist AP2s sitting behind me here, except the Pings a bit tackier in my opinion and likely won't look as good at address (super-thick topline).

I bought a new set of PING Raptures (the G10 on steriods) with graphite shafts. Very happy with these; about a club longer than anything else I tried and much easier to hit consistenly well (and I think I tried just about every premium make and model, including all the blades).

Haven't pings always been a club longer.....there 8 iron loft is a 7 for most companies...at least this is what I was told years and years ago...

it was a great marketing idea...worked too

Great find Mr. 425.

I'll wait for these to appear (hopefully) in Europe instead of reshafting my S58's this season. I'll try them out at least. They'll probably be as/more expensive as the 58/59's when they came out though...

They look great - a little shinier than the dull heads of the S58's.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
