Yeah, it's probably from their "manly" rough over there. ;)

LOL, probably. ;). How are your i20s holding up?

Do your i20's have any peeling problems?

No, mine don't show any issues like that. [quote name="mvmac" url="/t/61817/i20-iron-problem/30#post_997920"] Do your i20's have any peeling problems? [/quote]Nope.

Ping took a lot of heat for the laminate problem on the i20's.  From what I've read they did away with the laminate on the i25's but not sure about the others.

Hopefully that is the case.

Wow I did not see this thread at all before I bought mine last summer, I probably would have went with another brand just to avoid the possibility of this happening to me.  And the douche at the store didn't mention this to me either which chaps my ass more than anything.

I would not worry too much, the problem is pretty rare. Hopefully your irons will be fine.

It's not a "common" issue with the irons so the guy probably didn't even know about it. How are your irons doing? Are they peeling?

Looking at them today at Golfsmith I think they do as you mentioned, but I will find out for sure.  I went there to check out the G25s but when I put them down at address and I kinda threw up in my mouth a little bit.  I hit the AP1s and the AP2s a little bit and liked those.  If I were to get those I would probably get like AP1 4 and 5 irons and AP2 6-9.  I will probably just end up finishing off my s55 set though eventually and keep the i20s as a backup.  I will be sure to let everyone know what they say about the i25s and the laminate.

So you currently have a few S55's which ones and how would you compare them to the i20's?

I just have a 8 and 9 iron I have been using.  They are very accurate.  I draw them a bit less(which I like), and they are honestly a bit tougher to hit overall, but I have been getting used to them.  Not quite sure I am good enough for them though, but it is fun to try.

Your good enough. The long irons might take a bit to get used to but you're a beast.   Do they feel noticeably softer than the i20's?

Yeah they do feel a bit softer, but I think it is the sound that gives you that sense more than anything else.  Not as forgiving on toe hits, but I have noticed they are every bit as forgiving off the hosel! ;-)

My philosophy is buy it before you try it. ;-)

Ha ha ha. That's so awesome. Im leaning towards the i25's I love the way they look and I feel like the S55's are a little above my ability level. What was it about the G25's that hated so much.

      SuperSpeed Sues Stack System for Supposedly Syndicating Successes & Statistics

      By klineka ·

      Why should SuperSpeed get 3x of Stack's profits? I get the part about SuperSpeed wanting damages sustained as a result of Stack, but I don't get why SuperSpeed feels that they're entitled to both Stack's profits and damages.   Does anyone know/think SuperSpeed actually has a case here?

      SuperSpeed Sues Stack System for Supposedly Syndicating Successes & Statistics

Stack System’s marketing materials inflate apparent swing speed and distance gains through selective presentment of data without qualification that purported gains are not the result, in whole or part, of its training protocol and products. * Yes, I'm joking about abbreviating both "SS." SuperSpeed wants: A judgment that the Stack System has disseminated false and/or misleading information in violation of federal and Illinois law. The deletion of all false advertising distributed and recall of all packaging containing false advertising and a requirement that Stack System issue notices (written or otherwise) to that effect to all current distributors and retailers of its products and all distributors with whom Stack System has done business in the past eighteen months. Written confirmation within 30 days of an injunction detailing the manner and form in which Stack System has complied. An order that Stack System disseminate corrective advertising informing consumers, the trade, and the public of Stack System’s unlawful conduct. 3X all profits received by Stack System as a result of its unlawful actions. 3X all damages sustained by SuperSpeed (as a result of Stack System’s actions) The cost of the action All reasonable attorney fees All other relief to which SuperSpeed are entitled and such other or additional relief as just and proper. Oy.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By iacas ·

      I'm not doing this for the hundred and twentieth time. Sorry in advance, but you get the massively abridged version. Those guys also benefited from the weaker/shallower fields. Also, Watson's career doesn't overlap with Jack's like many think it did. Tom is nearly a decade younger. Jack won only like four majors only after Tom won his first. And Tom won more British Opens than he did all three of the other majors combined, as it was his specialty (not Jack's). Arnie's career similarly doesn't overlap Jack's as much as many think.   Jack would also tell you Tiger was the better golfer.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Dr. Manhattan ·

      Weaker depth of fields for sure. Some of the top level guys with Jack were pretty awesome. Tom Watson had the lead on the 72nd hole of the 2009 British Open, an event where Tiger missed the cut. Old Tom was almost 60 years old. Jack himself at age 58 finished Top 10 at The 1998 Masters and scored better than Tiger, who won The Masters by 12 shots just a year before that.   The success of both Tom & Jack in older age gives some hope that maybe Tiger can find the magic again at some point. He’s still trying to figure out how to build the stamina for 72 holes after the leg injury. I would love to see him jump on the leaderboard in the coming years. I know a lot of people have given up on him at this point, but that was also true from 2014 to 2017 with the back injuries. He had a hell of a resurgence in 2018 & 2019. Would be fun to see it again.
