weird title i know...i'm in a quandary regarding my game right now. for years i had not been able to hit mid to long irons very well, but was pretty darn good with 8 and lower....i think the heavier weight of short irons and game improvement designs of my irons were responsible for being able to get the ball in the air easily. as my swing has taken shape though, i find myself hitting my mid to long irons much better, particularly because i feel that the weight of the head isn't overbearing and I have really good control of the head at every position of my swing....sounds a bit illogical, i know, but i just have an easier time keeping it square when the head is not too heavy. is there anyone else who feels like this or has had this experience before? and are there any irons out there where the weight of short irons isn't as notable.

in my bag:

Driver: '08 Cobra F Speed LD 10.5 w/UST Proforce V2 Tour Flight stiff

Fairway: Adams Speedline Fast10 3-wood w/Aldila Wasabi stiff
Hybrid: Nickent 3dx 3H

mizuno mp-57 irons and vokey wedges are great short game weapons. the mizunos especially easy to control short irons. The weight differences throughout the set arent really noticeable. give any of the mizzys a try, and maybe with the px shafts in them... i think you could handle the 62's or 57's as a 10 handicap. i know i could.

    • I enjoyed the A-B-C-D scramble we did at Kittyhawk before it shut down. Yes. The point was to meet the other members and get the season kicked off. Nobody took it too seriously. At least with that group, cheating wasn't a big issue.  As the D part of A-B-C-D, I enjoyed getting to play with one of the Association's top players. One year I played with the city champ. Man could he hit a ball.  It probably isn't something I'd want to do more than once a year, but it has its place.

    • This year the 2 person scramble at Garland was flighted after 36 holes.  The final 18 holes determined the winner.  This was more fair since most people really wouldn't know what flight they would be in.
