Name is Ryan, I live in the Palm Springs, CA area. I shared this somewhere else, though you all might get a kick:

I called Titleist just maybe 2-3 days ago and asked them if they make a 2 Iron in the new 710 MB Forged Clubs. The lady laughed at me and told me that I have not had one of those request in quite some time. I know that most players including tour players have gone to hybrids. I have actually never tried a hybrid. I love my 670 (old Titleist) and I don't have the heart to change. I guess now I am forced to change unless I keep the 670 or I know they make the 2-iron in a cavity back, but I have not hit a cavity back in about 22 years.

First thing, welcome!

So, if you're wanting the new 710 series MBs, I would think an option you may have is to get a 2nd 3 iron at .5" longer, and have the lie and loft bent down to that of your current 2 iron. It may not have the same bounce angle as your current one, but that may be as close as you'll get. That's the only thing I can really think of if you're dead set on the MB. Also, I'm not sure if you've looked at them very much, but the CB isn't exactly a big, full size cavity like you may be thinking. It's nowhere near the size of an AP1 or AP2. We covered the release of both the MB and CB here , so take a look and it may be able to help you make a decision on them.

      Day 91 (1  Aug 25) - Pre-tournament practice round today…had some great up and downs for par saves.  Rain came in this evening so it will be a totally different playing course tomorrow.

      Ovvio Shafts (from GEARS)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Jesus, when he keeps saying scissoring moment, ugh that is a horrible sounding phrase. Just makes me cringe. It doesn't help my mind went to Mr. Garrison from South Park. 🤣 If you know you know.  I think for the most part, golf shaft companies have gotten this figured out. They ask questions like, what tempo do you swing at. The whole scissor terminology sounds like they want to stand out a bit.  Yea, golfers load the golf shaft differently, and different bend profiles can help out. I do think swing speed matters as well. You probably want a golf shaft with lower torque if you swing faster.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Played 9 holes, shot a 39.  Kind of got around. Everything between the trees, so in play. Short game was rusty. Got to get back on that. Greens were stupidly slow because they got a lot of rain yesterday and probably couldn't cut them down. Usually in the summer they are firm and pretty fast for how sloped they are. Got to work on face to path a bit.

      Physics

      By GolfLug · Posted

      We agree here. Top of the car has a forward force, bottom of the car experiences a backward force via the braking. Both about the COM (somewhere in between). Result is a rotational flip. Since the forward force is still higher the car probably still globally travels forward. Sure, pretty basic. You really think there are deliberate twist forces applied? Like forcing the club head forward and simultaneously forcing grip end in the opposite direction? Heck I don't think we even slow down the grip end deliberately let alone force it the other way. Sorry, if I am missing something here. The orientation change is simple incidental because there is different rate of global movement of grip vs. clubhead throughout the swing. I also happen to think the best swings have the least amount of differential movement between the two end in the impact zone.  In my defense, I never thought one could do justice in covering all aspects of a golf swing in a paragraphs or two to begin with. Especially not with grade school physics..😜 Okay.

      Boulder / Denver Colorado Course Recommendations?

      By cedrictheo · Posted

      Wow, @DeadMan that is such a helpful breakdown of what’s around. Really excited to check a bunch of these out. Thank you. Will definitely go to Walnut Creek. Will also try and get a commonground tee time. Haven’t played many Doak courses yet! If your schedule frees up, let me know!
