I have a set of Titleist 962b's in 2-pw.  I'm curious as to how they'd compare to a modern iron?  I own some Callaway Apex Pro 19's.  I know the loft is going to be weaker on the Titleist irons.  I thought about having them bent back to standard and maybe strengthening the loft, regripping,  and then playing them.  They were my first set of irons.  Any thoughts on performance to todays more modern irons?

I wouldn’t strengthen the loft. That’s not what they’re designed to do. The Apex have stronger lofts because they launch higher, so the lower the loft to optimize trajectory. Unless there are odd distance gaps, the standard lofts would work best.

    • ETSU men’s golf receives apology from Delta Airlines after baggage mishandling video goes viral SAN DIEGO, Calif. (WJHL) — The East Tennessee State University (ETSU) men’s golf team has received an apology from Delta Airlines after a video that has over 5 million views showed staff haph… I feel for the team! 15 years ago I changed planes in Atlanta on my way to Las Vegas. With a window seat on the Hartsville tarmac I could see my golf bag, in a hard case, tossed onto the conveyor belt, and overhang the edge, to the cargo section. As it rose, I saw it fall off from about 20’. Couldn’t see the impact. When I landed and retrieved the case, it was destroyed but the clubs were okay!   When I filed a claim with Delta they put me through an administrative nightmare and I finally gave up. Still have that case in my attic!
    • The last Aimpoint I received last year was as follows: from 4' (used to be 6') 1% is inside the cup: 2% is 1" outside the cup: 3% is 3" out of the cup    
    • Day 147: 5/22/24 Stack Training Full Speed Spectrum session 15/24. Hit my high speed for this program and tied my highest speed ever for a session. This is a speed I have hit 4 other times in the past year. Hotter temperatures have been good for me and speed has improved. On my last day in my fifties, I was happy with tonight’s performance.  Looking forward to Friday’s session. 
    • I don’t care if your make % from inside 10’ is 100%, if I see you reading the green on your knees I’m going to make fun of you 😜
    • Day 69. Few mins working on standard putt length followed by impact technique practice. Got to what I think was a good place, took a 10 min break and came back but wasn’t able to repeat it.
