Agreed, the point of the fitting is to find the right set for you and get the specs to meet your swing pattern. Remember to be open minded during a fitting and not to be narrow minded about brand, if you do that it's basically a waste to be fitted, for the most part.

I hit every one of those, and ended up with the jpx-800's. i liked them the most at the time, the ap1's and the jpx'800 pros were a very close second, and if i had to do it again i would have gone with either of those instead of what i went with just because they felt better, just didnt have the same shot good shot pattern as the normal 800's. my swing has improved miles since my choice, thats why i would have gone with the more players irons.

I hit all of those except the jpx-800 pro's.  I settled on the burner 2.0's because of their forgiveness, with the ap1's coming in second for me.

I don't think anyone can go wrong with that group you have there.  Anyone of those will be good sets, now its how they work in your hands.  Which ones feel better and do what you want them to do.

Also, don't get sucked in by the burner being longer than the others, it may be nice for the ego, but just realize the 6 iron is equal to the 5 iron from the other sets.  I did end up with the Burner's, but not because of the distance, it was just a much more forgiving club for me.

Good luck and enjoy your new irons, whichever set they may be!

    • 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. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
    • Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings. 
    • IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
