So took out my old Titleist DCI Oversize+ Irons and took them to the range, they are a Regular Flex, compared to the G15's they are much closer to a blade style even though they are still considered GI irons, but overall I seem to hit them a little better. With the Titleist irans you know when you hit it perfect and when you have an off hit, def feedback.

Back in the day I played the DCI's and did fairly well, maybe old is better?

You are comparing 2 differents cows. The ping G15 has just as much workability and feedback as the dead feeling DCI. It is just a different feeling.

Not sure but the lofts are probably a few degrees stronger on the Pings.

Most older clubs of even ten years ago have loft differences of 2-3 degrees. I play half DCI 990's and have CB's, it's working out really well for me.

    • Day 297 6-28 Got some swings in early this morning, busy day. Worked on low point control, skills work. 
    • Day 2: played 18. Driving was decent to good. Approach play was meh. Short game meh, and putting solid. Added up to an 81. Needed more tap in pars and more birdie chances. 
    • Day 8 (28 Jun 26) - Worked with face position at address and overall setup - open/neutral/closed - and setting up for resulting shot shapes - using 8i and hard foam balls.  It was abbreviated as the thunder began to rumble. Got in about 20 swings before calling it. 
    • Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
