I know there are a million different threads with people asking what irons they should buy. I haven't tried many sets but i would like the sandtrap's opinion anyway.

I am thinking about either the Mp57's, the i10's or maybe the Ap2's. I know people probably will suggest the AP1's but my mate has them and I personally don't like them. (too much offset and thick looking and a pretty big sole width also) So what do you guys think?

Driver: Taylormade R11 set to 8*
3 Wood: R9 15* Motore Stiff
Hybrid: 19° 909 H Voodoo
Irons: 4-PW AP2 Project X 5.5
52*, 60* Vokey SM Chrome

Putter: Odyssey XG #7

Ball: Titleist Pro V1x

PLEASE! Get the Ping S58's. there is a great deal going on ebay right now, outbid me please, I already found a set! haha..

Really though, you can always try the S58's and get used to them, will leave so much room as your handicap decreases. The i10s are exactly like the S58's, although I found the S58's to give me a little more distance, and believe it or not I was more consistent with them and it felt to give me more forgiveness.

Well, I can't really say much more about how much I love the MP-57's. I got a great deal on them from a friend who owns a golf shop, so I kind of lucked out. I wasn't even going to buy them til he gave me the price. I bought them without even trying them, just based off reputation. Now I know I didn't make a mistake.

Ping i10's! holy cow i got these this week and theyre freaking awesome. best irons ive ever owned. Ive probably played every brand and model of iron this year and I'm forever sold on pings.

I did have a toss up between the i10's S58's but my club pro said i should go with the i10's and if i didnt like them go with the others.

Im really big on how clubs look at address and they both look awesome and feel great. I really cannot do these clubs justice with words.

Pings or bust... for real.

Definitely get the MP-57's. They are very solid. You get good feedback from these irons, but they are quite forgiving as well. My swing has improved since purchasing these irons. I love that Mizuno feel!

Another vote for the MP-57s. Great irons, excellent feel, and I was surprised at the forgiveness too.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By iacas · Posted

      Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.

      Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
