Hey all-

I've been playing golf for about three years and absolutely love it. All my friends were serious players in high school and that wasn't exactly conducive to hacking around with them... when I got to college I decided to give it a shot, and like everyone here (I'm assuming) I totally got the bug.

Anyway, I'm 23 and have been playing for 3 years and am ready to get rid of my junky, poorly fitting, too stiff, graphite, Adams GT2 Undercut irons.

I've been thinking long and hard about a 5-AW R flex steel (I have a 4 hybrid I love) Geomax set from Tour Edge.

Everyone raves about their woods, and the warranty sounds great, but I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge about these super game improvement irons.

Thanks again, any advice would be appreciated!

I'm a fan of Tour Edge, obviously. My Geomax driver and woods are honestly the best purchases I've made since I started playing... I've only briefly tested the geomax irons and thought they were pretty nice, if a bit bulky and heavy feeling...

The only way for you to get an idea if these clubs are right for you is to go to to pro-shop or store that will let you test them on a range. I'm fortunate to live less than half an hour from a great store, Fiddler's Green in Oregon, that will keep bringing you buckets of balls until you are tired of hitting the test clubs.

I didn't seriously consider purchase because I have some decent irons and it wasn't in my budget at the time.

When I do decide to get new irons, I'm going to seriously check out the Tour Edge Exotics because they look pretty sweet

What's in my bag:
Cleveland Hibore XLS Monster Driver
TourEdge Exotics 2,3,4 hybrid irons
Tommy Armour 845cs Silverbacks 5-PW
Assorted wedges, Ping Scottsdale Anser

I don't play with the Geomax irons but do use the Tour Edge Bazooka Iron/Woods as well as an Exotics driver. I like the irons and have been playing with them for about 2 1/2 years with no problems. Overall I think tour Edge is a pretty good buy.

Loyalty above all else, except honor.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
