Hit them. Loved them. I have a question though. Because I hit a 16* and 20* hybrid I am not getting anything longer than a 5 iron. I am thinking about getting all the wedges that are available in the G10 as I need to replace my wedges anyways. Any reason NOT to get the G10 wedges? I swear I have a harder time making a decision on wedges than I do the entire set! Thanks for the help.

Only reason not to would be if there is another wedge that you hit better and feel more comfortable with.

That is what I was thinking. I am pretty weird about things, I like everything in my bag to look and feel the same especially the grips. I actually have ping grips on my cobra speed and cleveland hybrids. Good news is a buddy just ordered almost the exact same measurements I neex in the same G10's...I will make a test run of his as soon as he gets them dirty.

I just got fit for G10's and the pro recomended that I get the 4-PW and the UW in the G10 and get the the Tour W wedges for the SW and LW. I ordered the 4-UW and will be getting the Tour W SW and LW in a few months, and he will regrip and lengthen my current wedges.

He also recomended that I not get any hybrids as I will hit the 4 better, but he is a firm believer in not spending the high cost of fairway woods and hybrids compared to the cost of irons.

One thing to keep in mind is that the lofts of the G10 wedges are a little different from other clubs so if you get the PW it is recomended that you get the UW.

Get the Ping Tour W's vs the stock wedges. I never really liked the wedges that came with iron sets. Just my opinion.

Enjoy the new iron's.

If you want it to match, get the G10 iron wedges, but they are a bit thick and chunky.
Maybe go for the Ping Tour W wedges I think they are called because they are not bad wedges, and will be the same price.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry

      You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.

      Day 288 6-17 Low point control without ball. hit quite a few swing where i was wanting the club to hit the ground.  Added a ball with towel behind it, just to see where im at. Wasn't horrible but need some more work. Pretty much full speed swings.

      Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here.

      Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.
