Need some new irons that are forgiving, but I hate excessive offset.

Sorry to tell you, but the ap1's have a ton of offset to them, compare them to the Cleveland CG Golds . Anyways, the ap1's are fine clubs, wish I could get some.

hmm.. I took a look at them today, offset doesn't seem too bad.

I love them too..I got them a few weeks ago and they are by far the the best irons ever. The ball just launches off the face and has a nice high trajectory..2 things I was looking for. It made golf fun again for me.

Just curious: what is it about your 775s that make you wish to change?

The 775's - way too much offset for my liking, the NS steel shafts even in stiff are too soft.
Plus something that bugs me - there's a thick red line across the back of the 3-4-5 irons, and it's scratching off after about a month of use. I saw a bunch of returned ones at the Golf Mart by house and they all had the something or worse. Don't want mine looking like that after a few more months.

Perhaps you should consider the AP2s, since the AP1s seem to have almost the same offset as the 775s.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
