Though, in all honesty, I think you should go with something even more forgiving like the MX-200 or the PING G10. I'm a 28 handicapper and I still find it tough to hit my Callaway X-14's at times when my swing is totally headed south, and the 14th are considered SGIs. But maybe that's just me, I'm the most inconsistent golfer around, maybe because I don't play much these days.

A GI or SGI iron can't fix a flawed swing. If you want a players iron go for it. I cannot stand the chunkiness, offset, thick top line, etc of GI irons so I can understand if a noob golfer wants to have something a little more streamline and appealing at address.

That was my opinion. It says nothing about my skill when the club is doing all of the work. My swing isn't flawed per say, it's more so my habit of pulling up that really kills me.

"The club doing all the work" is a bunch of BS, you still need to make a good swing to get a good result with a G.I. club. They just make your misses a little less awful. And you can still tell when and where you mis-hit it, if you have any touch at all.
It sounds like you have talked yourself into a set of blades, so I won't try to talk you out of it, only wish you good luck, with a 35 hcp. and blades.

    • The MTB Prime and Prime X had issues with the cover being too soft and getting cut too easily. They said it was more prevalent in the Prime than the Prime X which I found odd because that was the exact opposite of my experience.
    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though.
