hey guys. so i decided to get the adams a4r iron set. i tried them out at the range today. i noticed a couple things during my session. first of all compared to my old cavity irons, these seem more solid at impact. second i dont seem to hit them has far as teh old ones. do you guys think i just need to get used to them? also i mightve been off today but i was hitting lots of fades, compared to some of the crazy slices with my old irons. the one thing is i really love the hybrid and the gap wedge. i could never hit the hybrids in my old set and this one is so easy to hit. the gap wedge has honesly become my favorite wedge. it goes exactly where i want and i love chipping with it.

If you hit them solid and consistently who cares if they don't go as far. It could be a matter of one club, say a 5 iron, being less lofted on your current set. Companies, namely Taylormade right now, like to de-loft irons relative to other companies so their 5 iron is "longer" even though it's more like a 4 iron. BUYER BEWARE!

    • 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.
