Ever heard of Google?

I read that a good time ago before there was much for comments. Sorry for not making it my homepage and religiously checking to see if any new comments were posted.

Good grief - what raw nerve has been exposed here? My comment was related to your question "Would they be considered a "blade" or are they one of those combo irons that use a little bit of both?" My point was that with a few keystrokes you could find out, rather than asking for a whole bunch of "opinions" about what, surely, is a relatively objective topic.

Well you should really find a better way of making your point. "Have you ever heard of Google?" is seen as a smartass way to say something over here. I apologize if it's different over there, but a lot of people would take offense to that if they heard it.

I'm sorry for getting upset, just watch that next time.

They have. Try out the Cleveland CG-Red or Callaway x-20 tour. IMHO, the CGred is closer to a players club and x20 tour is closer to a GI, but..

INMHO, X20 tour plays like a plyer club with forgiveness for mis-hit that gives me a fair feedback, so probably is in between two genres.

Workability is up for definition, no? Most good golfers work the ball to a certain area of the course. I don't know anyone who says, "Well, I teed up, I'm going to hit it straight." Andulations, slope of the green, traps, doglegs, trees, etc., dictate whether you're going left, right, hitting a ball lower, higher. I don't think every golfer

I consider trajectory and short game to be part of that issue also. I chose my irons because I could knock them down fairly easily. Also the slightly thinner sole gives me more options, our turf varys from soggy to rock hard. I fade or draw the ball only minimally unless hitting a recovery shot.

That's the next thing I'm putting in my hands when I go back to the golf shop. AP1s were good. But I'm excited about trying those next.

    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
    • I know Dean Snell designed the original Pro V along with a couple of other brands tour balls.  How exactly does the Snell ball have problems.  Did he change something in the design or is a manufacturing error since he cannot afford the unlimited R&D budgets of the big manufacturers to iron out flaws
