I concur with this...the VAS with the bizarre hosel and pink sticker was incredibly ugly! Clambake

I concur also but I HAD a set of these and they were some of the most forgiving irons I've ever hit. Corey Pavin won the US Open using these also. (That sticker is the thingy that absorbs the vibration). My SIL plays these now and does real well with them.

ALL the new irons with the NASCAR junk all over them are ugly. Give me an old set of Mizuno's. Simple, clean and pretty.

Is that really part of the iron or something protective added just for shipping?

The recent and current taylormade superlaunchers are disgusting looking. Most ping irons hurt my eyes, and 99% of Callaway irons look like sin. Most GI and SGI irons are hideous IMO.

I agree with the VAS and the OSS Slingshot. Ugly, but get the job done. Kinda like the Titleist AP series irons. C'mon, they're ugly!

Oh my.... those are ugly. But, I love the 1st sentence in the description.

This 4 through PW set is not just beautiful, but incredibly functional.

Yes, the clubs do seem pretty bad. But, what about the poor kid in the picture? He's about 2 years old and he looks like he's sportin' a hair piece--and a bad one at that.

I saw that too. If they're as functional as they are beautiful, they're probably the least forgiving irons ever made.

Any iron EVER made by Ping or Callaway.

(I'm not trying to bash them - I like the way several Ping models feel.. but I think they all look like crap).

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
