Hey all I recently won a new set of irons.

I currently play ping g30s 1 inch longer 2 degrees upright 5 to pw and then a 50 54 and 58 vokey. Top end of the bag is a g430 driver g425 5 wood and g425 7 wood 

I settled on a set of ping g430s but the lofts are much stronger ger with the PW at 41 degrees. I am going to go with a 6 to pw but to fill the gap do I go with the 45 degree g430 or should I opt for a 46 degree vokey?

Well you could always start with the G430 GW and see how you like it....  plus it will be more forgiving on off hits vs the Vokey.   

If you end up not liking the G430 GW, you could always get a Vokey afterwards.

It kind of depends on how you hit them and what your gaps actually end up being.  The 46° Vokey might not fill the gap the way the G430 UW does. If you’re planning on using the club mostly on full swing motion shots you might be better off with the G430.

Or you can just put your G30 PW in the bag as your GW since it’s 45° standard loft.

    • Yeah - I'll keep an eye on that - I've been across the line for about forever, so I assume that I want to overexaggerate the laid off bit to get it closer to square when I take a real swipe at the ball. 
    • Those are better. Watch where the shaft points at the top, too. Bit over-rolled there (laid off).
    • First swings at after a 2.5 month forced hiatus. No surgery in the forecast at the moment! Doc said okay to start easing in gently over a few weeks. The effort is barely 30% here but felt solid.  I think my swing changed a few years ago after my right ankle injury (weight shift profile). I wonder if this may bring about another change. I certainly won't pivot on to the knee (left) aggressively any time soon, if ever. Could even be a good thing..heh.      
    • I mean, I just assume he mistyped something. 🙂 Promos were on X/Twitter and today I put the promo on IG. The full video is landscape (not good for Instagram) and too big for X (file size), so it's always been on YouTube.
