I actually love my touredge irons/hybrids. I swung pretty much everything out there from most expensive to least......the price is amazing and the quality is just as high as other high end brands. They keep their prices low by cutting advertising costs...check them out.

Also, a question from me.........is my swing speed with my driver is constantly 88-97(mostly 90's) would I want a regular flex or stiff? chart and sales people say stiff, but ya never know!!!

Maybe see your local pro? I'm sure they can recommend that kind of thing for ya, although I am not sure as I have never been fit myself. I really need to get that done.

Best 9 holes: 35 (Trilogy at Redmond Ridge, 3163y, Par 35/70, 70.0/131)
Best 18: [b]77[b] (Palm Valley CC, 6545y, 71.4/126)
Notable career achievement: I have NEVER four-putt.

what are you looking to change...? your irons? drivers? or your entire bag? seems kinda silly to do that since most of your stuff are new models...

DST Tour 9.5 Diamana Whiteboard
909F3 15* 3 FW stock Aldila Voodoo
909F3 18* 5 FW stock Aldila Voodoo
'09 X-Forged 3-PW Project-X 6.0 Flighted
CG15 56* X-Tour 60* Abaco

At your handicap, I would suggest the Mizuno MP57's, MP58's or MP52's. They are all on the more forgiving side of Mizzy's players irons, but you can still work them easily. I did lose about 1/2 club distance when I switched to Mizuno from TaylorMade, but the consistency in trajectory, distance and feel was well worth it.

The best idea would be to try and hit as many clubs as you can. I settled for my AP2s only because Titleist is the only brand that has the fitting cart (Surefit for Titleist) and I got the right clubs for my swing.
Only by trying many brands you'll find something that you will really like. Just as an example, I got my Titleist woods because they were the only brand that I was able to hit during a demo day but I was always thinking that there were some better clubs that fit me better. Now that I've hit the Nike VR series (woods) and the Ping I15s during their respective demo days, I can tell that the Titleist ones are the best clubs for my game.

Maybe ping G15s because my local pro says it is like cheating which must mean they are good also KJ Choi uses them and there has got to be a reason for that

Man G series are so much fun to play aroudn with. They shoot the ball straight up in the air.

My Clubs:
Ping I3 + blade 3-pw
9.5 09 Burner with prolaunch red
Nickent 4dx driver
Taylormade Z tp 52, 56, 60
YES Carolyne putter

If you get a good shaft it wont shoot the ball straight up in the air

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.
