I was wondering if any of you have experience with these clubs? I am a beginning player. I know that these clubs will get the ball high up in the air, but Im wondering if this is really necessary? I sometimes have a problem with getting the ball in the air, and I dont know if that is just a beginning mistake, or an actual problem I have. But Im wondering if I should get these, or go for something else. What do you think?

Exact clubs I played prior to my AP-1's that I got this year. I had them for about 4 years. Honestly they're very nice clubs. They have a wide sole on them which is good for higher handicap players and they'll definitely help you get the ball airborne. But only you know if that's a trouble spot for you. Still have them sitting in my living room.

Just my opinion of course, but I don't think they're a "full blown" beginners club. Some will disagree I'm sure. They help for sure; solid clubs.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.  
    • Distances look fine, no?
    • Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
    • Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
