i have a set of 18's and 22 tours and the 18's are the most forgiving clubs ive ever hit. The 22's are just as good tho, a little different for me, but definately a great club. Id go with them.

Thanks a lot man! So you have both 18s and 22s but prefer the 18s? Just preference or any reason why?

This is probably a dumb question, but is there two different lines of x22s, regular and tours or are they one and the same? I also heard callaways are lefty friendly and have great customer service, so those are big pluses

The tours have less offeset and are a touch less forgiving. Thinner sole and the weighting isn't quite so extreme.

Yeah i just lean towards the 18's more for more workability and comfort. But yeah the x22's and tours are different just by a little bit. The 22's have a full offset club head which enables a higher ball flight where as the tours have a tour offset head club which keeps the ball to a medium height.

I just got a set of X-22s and as you can see I'm definitely a beginner. I hit them for the first time at the range yesterday, and after my first experience with them, I think they are excellent.

I play the X20's, and they are excellent clubs. The X22's are almost identical, I have tried them, and would recommend them.

I shot a couple of balls using an X-22 9 iron. It's good, I think it's more forgiving than my old X-14s. But if you're really a beginner I'd suggest something more game improvement; Mizuno MX950 or MX100, Adams hybrid irons or PING G10. You can't really go wrong with any of these. But if you're set on the X-22's then go for them.

    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.

    • Day 18: drill swing in my garage after getting home from work. 
    • Day 32 (12 Dec 25) - What was the Friday shootout became a practice round due to lack of enough players (temps kept a lot of the regulars home).  Used it to dial in some playing distances as I played back a set of tees to force alternate club selections.  Plenty of long approaches - every club was put into action thru the course is 18 holes. Was not a GiR day but rather nGIR (5 up and down pars).  Pin placement was tough - the smallest miss would see the ball roll just as far past or even off the green.  Was a great day of battling what the course was dealing. Overall - I finished 5 strokes over my average score of 86.
