Titleist T300

[Esox]

I always played forgings. But with pretty bad arthritis and me never knowing which swing will show up, it was time to get game improvement irons. I didnt bother getting fit for the same reason, too inconsistent in swing speed and path day to day.. Last two times I got fit, it was a good day and they wanted to put me in stiff shafts. Stiff wont work for me on bad days, I'd barely get a 5 iron off the ground.  Kid and I went to  Carl's Golf Land today and we hit clubs. Lots of clubs. T200's, T300's,  Both Apex cavities, Mizzy JPX series. Srixon, you name it, if there is a name brand game improvement iron out there, we hit it. Came down to the Mizuno Hot Metal Pro and the T300. I ended up with the T300's because the long irons were a lot easier to hit, and I didnt get as many jumpers, shots that went unexpectedly 15 yards long. The Mizunos appealed to my eye better, but the T300's were easier to play knockdowns and were more willing to work with control either way.  Hit the course. Scored like crap, need to learn my distances on these monsters. I think I'll drop the 48 degree wedge and put my 50 degree Vokey back in, it's a money club for me.  The 4 iron is a beast off the tee., I was carrying it 215-220. May have to keep the 4 and drop the 5 for my M6 6 wood I fell in love with for its versatility. Got a pretty damn good deal too, 4-pw + 48degree wedge for $920.00.... That was a lot less money that most of the other clubs we tried, not all (I.E. Callaway Mavric was a lot less, felt fantastic, but was just too long for me, I'd need 6 wedges...........

6-wood? Don’t you mean 9-wood? 
 

I tested the T300 irons, didn’t really care for them. Thought they were too long for me.

You didn’t try the Mavrik Pro? The lofts are almost the same as the T300s.

Yes, I meant 9 wood. I tried the Mavriks, they were both very long. And I just couldnt deal with the colors on the cavity insert. Same with the Taylormade Sims. Just too gaudy for my concervative old man taste.
