Alright heres the story. Played golf in high school got down to 4-8 handicap (not 100% sure) left high school joined the military didnt play a whole lot now getting back into it. I have custom irons called smt. Not a well know brand but great cuobs. They are progressive cavity with 5,6,7 being deep cavity 8,9,P shallow cavity. Im probably around a 15 handi now but can strike the ball pretty well. Im looking for a players iron with some forgiveness. I dont want anything big and hurky. Also the budget is tight so I will be looking for some of the older clubs. Something along the lines of a titleist 690cb. Any suggestions on what to look for?

So I have an oppurtunity to buy the same clubs I have now for pretty cheap. An almost new set. I do ike these clubs and am already used to looking at them and hitting them. I hit them pretty good Im only replacing them because they are getting old and the grips are worn. For the price of grips this guys is offering me a full set. I play smt cb2 irons more of almost a cut muscled design. http://www.smtgolf.com/irons_303cb2.asp . The dillema I have is I have been looking at callaways pre owned website and see a lot of good stuff in the 200 range.

Most of these clubs are a few years old and was wondering if there even worth getting? I also like what I hear about mizuno and was thinking about maybe looking at those. Whatdo you guys think?

The oter thing to not is my smts have a slightly higher offset then what the x forged has. I have no callaway specs but my smts have a li

    • Day 446 - 2025-12-20 Woke up early and got some swings in before teaching putting all day. Looking forward to doing the same tomorrow.
    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls.
