Got my new irons (Wilson d9 forged) and had the first round yesterday with them. Noticed after there’s a weird light coloured mark on the corner of my pw face. Anyone know what this could be and if it’s just cosmetic? It doesn’t seem to want to wipe off. Wasn’t sure if it’s just a mark from the factory bending the lie angle etc?

That’s what I’m hoping to do. Just wondered if there’s any reason or explanation what it could be?

I mean it could be so many different things.

It could be from a small pebble.

Could be from some grains of sand.

Could be from it hitting another club in your bag as it bounced in the cart. 

Could be a blemish from the factory.

I say don't worry about it and enjoy the clubs. They're going to get dinged up.

There's a small scratch to the right of your circle too. I'm sure if you looked at your other clubs under bright lighting you'd see blemishes already too.

I have those irons. In fact they are back in the bag as we speak. I sent my brand new Titleist's back, the back of the 9 and 7 irons were peeling, like a poor job at the electro-platers or something. I don't mind if I bang up a set of 1000 dollar irons but I'll be damned if they come out of the box dinged up. Those are nice irons you have there, I have had zero complaints from them KBS Max Lite shafts for my smooth and easy old man swing. I only bought the Titleist's because I wanted them. Also sent the bag, Vokey's back as well. F-them. 3-SW Wilson Staff. I should update my signature thing.

Yeah they’re lovely irons! I’m assuming that marks just been a blemish and it’s nothing to worry about or peeling like you say.

Looks like a manufacturing defect. If you care about it you can probably send it back. Even if you don’t care, they might want to know about it.

I wouldn’t bother sending it back but I’d just like peace of mind that the clubs ok and it’s just a factory scuff etc.

On that I’m sure it’s fine. Looks cosmetic to me.

    • 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.
