Wish I had never said that.  Though you probably know, it was a reference to Vinsk's special ability to shank a rare shot.

Yeah. I got it. Just having a bit of fun at @Vinskexpense. I’m betting he hasn’t taken offense at some lightheartedness. 😊

Lol. Oh hell no…fire away! I must say having clubs that are 2* flat has helped me. Well….I just f***** that all up.😳

Have you considered hockey sticks? I bet it would be hard to hit a hosel rocket with those.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Hey @Vinsk,

Do you like PXG putters? 

I haven’t tried one. I use the Odyssey Stroke Lab Seven. I like the looks of the PXG mallets of course.

Lol. I’ve actually never played hockey nor even ice skated. The strange thing is if I picture myself hitting a hockey shot, either left or right handed ‘feels’ good. My mixed-dominance often does that to me.

I am thinking of picking up the 2021 0221 dc irons. Read a lot about them over the last few days. Jacked up lofts by design with 1/2 in longer shafts. Very attractive irons for a very reasonable price. Am i missing anything about these irons? If this is not the proper thread please move.

If you prefer more traditional lofts and lengths you could always go for the 0221 ST's. 

Roughly the same price.

I pulled the trigger on the 0211 dc irons. It came down between them and the Titleist T300 irons.  For the price and the reviews on the 0211 it made the choice easy. $60 shipping was annoying but even so well under what I had allocated for irons. 
 

Playing the AP1 714 now. Could have held off but why not. You guys re peaked my interest with this thread.

Will post more later in the what’s in your golf bag thread(still a favorite thread). Very attractive clubs at first glance. I do not like the grips. Not a big deal as they weee getting changed regardless. I am the insane person where all clubs must have the same grip(does not improve my game).

Despite being a cast, not forged iron, I find contact just as pleasing as I do with my Apex 19s. I haven't seen the performance on the course that I saw in my fitting, yet. I may need time to adjust to the added length or offset, or, it could just be the cold weather and having to wear as many as 5 layers to stay warm! I think they are a great value for someone on a budget in particular and they really are a nice looking club.

I agree. I have them and often compare them with my Callaway X Forged CB irons. I have the Mitsubishi MMT 80 in the PXG set and the 950 GH NEO In the X Forged. Higher launch with the Callaway as expected with the shafts. The X Forged may be a little hotter off the face but otherwise I really like them both.

I have the MMT 60 in my PXG set and Recoils in my Apex irons. How do you think those two shafts compare?

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      By Shindig · Posted

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??

      I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
