Got the chance to hit them today with rifle 6.0 shafts at a demo tent at a club I got to play at today. I must say they are some truly awesome irons. The rep says they are pressed much harder at forging than any other forgings available in the US which makes the tolerances in the balance of the club more consistent. I dont know who true that is or not.

Really, really thin top line on those things but surprisingly very very easy to strike and get into the air with backspin. It was even easier to do this with the musclebacks. The MB's are awesome. Much easier to hit than my Titleists. Im told they wont be avaiable in the US until sometime this summer, but I am seriously considering saving to get a set. At 799 for p-3i they seem very affordable. I only hit them for about 45 minutes but from that session I thought they are the best performing irons ive ever hit. From Bridgestone no less. Who knew?

Are you sure these won't be available until the summer? I have seen sets on ebay and gppgolf.com.

I see that you said that they were easy to hit in comparison to your Titleist. What other irons have you hit that you feel the J36 performed better?

Titleist 905T Accra SC75 M4 Shaft

Nike SQ 4W Accra T70 M4 Shaft
HB001 17* Hybrid with Mitsubishi Diamana Thump X Stiff Flex

Yeah I did, the guy had a full set of each for testing. All of them performed awesome but I prefer the MB's in the p-6 and the pocket cavity in the 5-3. He mentioned you can mix and match any of the styles at the website or certified dealerfor the same price because the lofts are consistent.

Ive hit Mizuo MP's 32's and their newer muscle cuts, and the X-forged. I learned on a set of 20 year old mcgregors..lol. They even blow away the x-forged for me, which is saying alot.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 82: mirror work again tonight. Working on the same shoulder down and roll and twist stuff. Going on vacation tomorrow and putting the clubs down, so new streak starts in about 10 days!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)

      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

      My Swing (Gestate0560)

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