I'm getting my Taxes back this week and instead of using it on bills i figured I'd spend it on something important.. Like new irons. I'm stuck deciding whether I should go with last years Diablo forged irons (via Callaway pre owned) or the new Razr x's. I would love to get some feedback on which would be a better purchase. Thank you.

diablo's are more forgiving irons, the razor x  plays like the x series

In My Bag:
Driver: TaylorMade R11 10.5 UST Shaft
3 woods:R11   - 3 & 4 Hybrids: FTi-Z
5i-pw: Diablo Edge SW, GW & LW: CG16  

Putter: Scotty C  -  GPS: Bushnell  -  Balls: PRO-V1

Whoops, didn't clarify that very well, the Razr-x Not the Razr X forged's. Sorry about that!

I'd choose the Razr X Tour over all of these...not forged, but I still like the setup better.

yes everyone has an opinion, but everyone wants different things,  you other guys have great handicaps so you will go with more of a tour club, but at 13, a more forgiving club, might be the better choice......

I hated the Diablo forged irons! I mean really hated them!! I have not hit the Razor's so I can not speak for those, but the Diablo's suck!!!

In my Ogio bag.

Titleist 910D2 driver, Adams irons & hybrid, Callaway wedges & a Nike Method putter.

And a yellow ball.

Just my luck, unexpected bills came up and looks like another year of using my hand me down Hawk Eye irons. Not to much of a big deal. I ended up getting  Diablo edge tour 2h with left over money; that club has the smoothest feel ever so I'm still happy! Thank you very much for your advice everyone, i think I'm going to go with the Razrx's when i get the money again.

I know its an old post but im currently looking into getting a set of razr x tours or razr x off callaway preowned.  What do you think are better for a 15 handicap.  Also how was the experience dealing with Callaway preowned?

Callaway preowned is excellent to deal with. Playing off a 15, I'd probably avoid "tour" anything. Do you have a Golfsmith or PGA Superstore or something like that closeby where you can go hit them?

    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.
