i have hit the VR's, both split cavities and blades

I played another round today with my Taylormade RAC CB/MB combo and every shot I hit felt horrible with them. My buddy has a set of older Taylormade Burner irons that are game improvement/borderline super game improvement with a pretty thick top line. I decided to try a few shots with them and I absolutely nuked every shot I hit with them. Can you give me an estimate on the J36s top line with any other club? I'd rather it not be too big, but I can live with it being bigger than my current musclebacks. Actually let me post a picture of the top line thickness and if you can tell me whether or not the J36's are thicker/thinner or just about the same that would be awesome.

3, 7, 9 irons

Not intentionally bumping my thread, but just wanted to let you guys know I went ahead and took a chance and picked up a set of J36s off Ebay. They should be shipping this week and I can't wait to get them and put them into play. I want to thank all of you for your suggestions and quick responses, it means a lot to me. IF for some reason I can't hit these any better than my Taylormade RAC CB/MB combo's then I might try some Mizuno MX25's as those look a lot more forgiving, we shall see. I will update this thread again on my assessment of the J36s after I get them and put them into play. Thanks again!

they look similar to the irons on the left.....but still different!! haha!

I think they have a very apprealing tip line, not too thin, not too fat....very confidence inspiring grats on the new purchase i am sure u will like them

    • 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.
