It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything.

For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use?

1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips.

2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me.

I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno….

P7TWs all day IMO.

Especially because they're already fit for you. And it sounds like you have an interest in buying/selling so using the Vapor Pros would only decrease their value.

If you see the Nikes as an investment, then play the TaylorMade. It’s rare for irons to remain valuable, but some are.

I was hitting my friend’s TW today and will end up finally unboxing  mine to use.  I’ll put the Nikes aside.  The Vapor Pro irons , the Vapor line in general have an odd cult following and the prices stay up there.  I almost pushed the original grips off of them so as not to wear them out and regrip them for my own use.   It’s crazy that they are worth more with the grips🙄.

    • Brutal! Get well soon, Vishal. Good to hear it's feeling strong and stable.
    • Could have been but not for sure. Felt a slight knee 'click' during a ski run down the slope in late December but didn't think much of it at that time. Didn't feel right for a few weeks so went to the doctor, got an MRI in late Jan, which revealed the damage. Seems like a cocktail of ligament/cartilage possible long term degeneration and some new tears. Throw in some tibial over-calcification for garnish. Interestingly there was never much pain/swelling, etc for anything catastrophic. Just didn't feel 100% stable with some bone clicking doing couple of mundane things.  I'm feeling pretty strong and stable now but docs order to not test the knee for a while while I'm doing some PT. Have some major travel coming up in March so will get another MRI in April to reassess further treatment if required. In the least have some interesting times ahead of me. 
    • Dang! You didn't share that info. Soccer?
    • Checking in. Haven't posted in a while since haven't done much this year and not sure I will for a while. Nursing partially torn ACL and meniscus on the left knee since late December and trying my best to avoid surgery for now. May not be any golf for me for a bit. Of course, I did pick a good time to get benched.
