Here's a pic of the strike marks on my 6 and 9 irons from my 'lie board'.  The marks are just a bit toward the heel of the clubs and I wonder if it's enough to worry about or not?

If the marks were more towards the heel or toe I'd worry, but for you experts out there ... is this acceptable or not?

Oddly, the Ping static chart puts me at 2 degrees up; these are standard, and as I read the marks, the clubs actually need to be a touch flatter.

Thx for the help.

BTW - The center of the club face seems to be over the 'N' in Ping, while my marks are more over the 'G'.

I would try a blue dot before going and ordering anything based on those pics.  Looks very close to me, similar to when I was fitted and told I could stay neutral or go 1*.  More about how it feels to you when you swing both.  If possible try a black and a blue side by side.

That actually doesn't look too bad.

You are in good shape there...just make sure you are wearing normal shoes when you hit the board.  That little bit can make a difference.

To me, that look's just fine. I'm surprised that they took you for 2 degrees up, you look like neutral would work just fine. You're going to love those irons if your getting them or you already do, those babies are sweet for an oversized.

    • Mostly pull cuts to slices. Some random pull draw/hooks pending of I hit the toe. 
    • What's the rest of that story? Where was the ball going?
    • The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.   
    • Well, if your frame of reference spins twice during the swing, then Bryson's ab/adduction is more like 780 degrees so there! (Yes I'm being silly, but not sure it's any sillier than what your pal Andy is doing...)
    • Update: Brandon Sorsby has decided to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft. He will not play for Texas Tech in the upcoming season.  From my perspective, I think he did the right thing. I hope he gets the correct help for his gambling addiction. I say the right thing, because I would be worried that the stress from all of this now and throughout the entire year would not be beneficial towards his mental health.  If an NFL team picks him up, then there really isn't any pressure for him to play immediately. He can work on himself and his game for the NFL.  From Texas Tech,  "Texas Tech will continue to provide the support and recovery resources Brendan requires on this journey. Furthermore, Texas Tech will not seek return of any amounts already paid to Brendan through his NIL agreements with the University," Campbell wrote. "We wish our best to Brendan, and we offer our prayers to him and his family as he chases his dreams at the next level. This has been an unbelievably painful experience for us all, but I know that his true, underlying character and lessons learned through this experience will ultimately bring him great success on the field of play and in life." Which, I also the right thing to do.
