Well I got my irons a couple days ago and took them out for their maiden voyage today. Beautiful course, beautiful weather, horrible game. I mean I was terrible. Could not believe it I was hitting balls fat, or off hosel all day. Shot a 49 on the front and 40 on the back.

Here is the kicker: when i got done Playing I called the pro that fit me and the conversation went like this:

Me: "Hey Rodney, it's Cotter. Are you at the course?"
Pro: "Sure am. How was your game today with the new sticks?"
Me: "Well, I am going to swing over and shove each of these irons up your @$$".
Pro: "Wow!?! That bad? We need to check the lie, I cant do it tonight though, can you come tomorrow".
Me: "No I am playing tomorrow. You may not be able to check them, but that is okay. But I'm still coming over to shove these up your @$$. Which one do you want first?"
Pro: "Well, i guess if I have to choose.... I'd prefer to start with the smallest one."

LOL. True story. I went over, and he put me on the lie board and then put the clubs of the loft/lie adjuster and found Mizuno screwed up the order. They were ordered 2 degrees flat (spec sheet w/them said 2 FL), but they measured out 2 degrees up. Meanwhile I lose $50 on a nassau. UGGH!
