The wait is going to be brutal!  They are shipping out next Thursday and I'm getting married next weekend, so I have plenty of other stuff on my mind, but very excited none the less.  I've been through 4 iron sets in the past year and a half  trying to replace my old XPC 3000's from high school with no success.  The 53's were my 2nd choice on my 3rd try, but I went with the 710 CB's.  Luckily on two of the occasions I've been able to make a profit on the sets so I'm stitting about even as is so that takes away some of the sting from the long search.  Anyways, I tried the Nike Slingshot with their speed step lite shaft(R), Snake Eyes 685X with Dynalite Gold SL(S), 710 CB with Dynamic Gold SL(R), and Ping I3 plus with the CS lites(R).  The Dynalite's were closest to what I want and closest to what I'm used to playing with, so I was looking for something closer to that end of the spectrum.  I went with the GS-95's on the 53's, regular flex, hard-stepped once......I'll probably end up grabbing some MPT-11 wedges as well with the same specs...

    • Was this the course with 9 blind shots in the first 9 holes?
    • Woof. Not good. 8:40 to 8:50, blah. I know the grip is turned a bit to the left in that part of the video (face is closed a bit), but… no. Not that.
    • Eh. You're tricking yourself. You can still miss right or left, and what you've created is a situation where you HAVE to miss (but the right amount) to make the putt. That's not for me.
    • I can see a point in this.  If you play a straigth 3 footer with a square face aiming at the hole, you can miss both ways, with a close face or an open one. If you aim rigth an close the face at impact (like tiger used to do), physically you can still miss left or rigth but mentally you are only missing left (closed face) and having only 1 miss can give you a boost in confidence. I putt this way on fade putts and aim left and open the face on draw putts, never liked the uncerteinty of putting square to the target.  I apply something like this on approach shots, only use low or high shots and for middle shots I use a low shot with more loft ot a high shot with less loft. This shots are always what they meat low or high, a middle one can go a little towards the high and the low depending on the AoA of each shot making it mentally a little more uncertain what is going to be.
