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?

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.

    • Birdied #13 at Quail Brook, which is new. Blocked tee shot right which ended up being fine because I didn't hit it well enough to reach the fescue. Had 110 to the flag and was ready to hit a 3/4 GW to it (even tagged the club) but felt the wind pick up behind me so I decided to club down to the SW and hit it to 4'. Lipped out a 15-footer on #17 for birdie for a tap-in par that also would have been new.
    • I've had a couple of good shots since the last time I posted, 1 a 90 yard approach that I manufactured with my gap wedge that I knocked to about 18 inches, 1 a ~140 yard 8 iron that I got to about 3 feet (pictured), but this week my best shot was a 60 yard pitch. It wasn't anything special but I did hit it out of a divot, so that's what I'm more proud of. Plus, i didn't really have any memorable shots this week.
    • Just a  follow up, I had the best lessons ever on gears with the best instructor! Wish I would’ve made the drive earlier in the year but put it together during a golf trip. Gears was incredible to see your swing in 3d with all the necessary data. I’ve had very few formal lessons in the past and a couple online but nothing compared to working with Erik. He made it  very comfortable and relaxed, patient with all my  questions and showed some swing comparisons of pros swings.    Our main focus was getting the pelvis to move in a better pattern and when he first pushed on my hip with that pvc going back it was like a “wow” moment. And to see the affects in real time just made it quicker to adapt and learn how to find it again, however, even without gears I’m sure it would’ve been an awesome lesson..it’s just nice for some players to see the facts, no debate… At the end of the 1st session I was shocked at the video seeing my pelvis move better, hips open, no early extension. I was literally like I can’t believe that video capture is me! I’m glad I had a second session the following morning, just to reinforce the earlier ideas and work on the next piece to complete the movement, and we still had plenty of time to mess around with lower priority ideas for later. I left that afternoon armed with a practice plan, he took extra time to show me what to look for on my own video and I got a copy of LSW. We’ll continue on evolvr for checkups until another road trip for sure! I also just ordered the stack system with his discount code to work on some speed training as well.    Just wanted to share my appreciation for all Erik’s help and anyone finding there way here like I did over the winter to give it a try!
    • Day 8. Did a bit of setup and backswing work but hip is not ready to swing yet.
