Swinging my backup set of WSTBFF's the last two times out, still a lovely blade after all these years. Hit some really sweet and consistent shots with the mids and low irons, with no opportunity to swing the 2, 3, or 4 of late.  But the last time I hit 'em on the range they were feeling great too. My Palmer 85's are quite similar. I've yet to figure out where my Hogans fit in. I just keep rotating through those four sets, to see if I ever declare a favorite---whilst en route to hickories.

Just had to mention I got a set of 1987 Wilson Staff Fluid Feel irons from EBay. My goodness…I absolutely love these old birds. Hell I even managed to smoke the 2i which is unheard of for me. Can’t believe how good they feel!70456010730__CF4C8079-DE1C-4FB0-907C-53183E13074A.thumb.jpeg.9c589199ec2b1c2c9b4792d278defb5d.jpeg

This is why clubs with offset "feel" weird to me. I avoid them. Been playing with 85 Palmer Standard's, but am switching to my 84 Hogan PC's next. But the Wilson's are still my favorite. I'd love to snag a 1-iron in that model. Also the Wilson 2i is going to be about like a modern 4i but with a longer shaft -and zero offset. I'm messing with hickories now...🤪

I’m really enjoying this retro stuff. I got the classic Wilson red-white leather bag and have some knitted head covers coming. I’m sticking with a modern driver and hybrids..putter… but looking forward to playing with these irons.

    • Day 335: range session before a round of golf tomorrow. Seeing where the ball is going. Hitting it solid, and hitting a pull draw. I can play it, but also found a decent feel to lessen it. We’ll see what happens tomorrow. 
    • Day 51 (20 Jun 25) - Friday men’s group shootout….the old adage of “those who live by the sword, will die by the same” was lived out today as a variant  “those who scramble for par will die by the same scrambling”.  Struggled with the green side game today - up and downs were hard to come by despite the course playing well.  Will be focused on this area in coming drill sessions.  
    • Finally the backswing is getting consistency shorter. This is the best its looks in a while.  1. Swing is shorter 2. Arms and clubs don't carry well past when the torso stops turning.  It was feeling like my arms do nothing at all. Like the butt of the club stays pointed at my belly from A1 to A2. Then from A2 to A3, it's just a slight lift and turn to finish the backswing. Then a pause at A3.

    • This was so good. For me, the best little bit was the visualization of the club under Wyndham's feet when asking him which direction he feels pressure and weight shift (around 30 minutes in). Might try out the right leg back drills to help post up on the left leg earlier.
