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

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
