Its been a while since i last posted but i am going to be a more active poster this season. Im on the market for a new iron set i have between 400 to 600 dollars to spend. Ive been playin maltby for the past 2-3 yrs they are beat up. My swing speed is about 110 - 115 with driver about 85-90 with irons (i dunno if this helps). I was set on getting callaway razr x ( stiff shafts ) but im having a hard time finding last yrs model . The pro at dicks is trying to talk to me about taylor made burner 2.0 stiff. Im new to the new technology of golf im not sure which brand or brands are good . Any suggestions on current selection or other selection of golf irons . Thanks for the help

Irons generally last longer than 2-3 years.  So I am not certain why your maltby clubs are beat up.  That being said.  With the budget you have, I suggest looking at Ping's last years model (G20) most decent golf shops will give you a free fitting and the Pings will be fitted to you.  In addition Ping tends to have a better resale value.

Generally speaking every manufacturer makes a quality set of clubs that will last year a good long time.  If you are set on having an off the rack set and want to get last years model, consider online at places like TGW, rock bottom golf, and ebay.  All are generally easy places to find a solid deal for what you are looking for.

Best of luck in your search

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

Pings are damn near friggin indestructable on top of the previously mentioned reasons with the exception of maybe the Ansers. They are awesome at customer service as well.

I have a set of G2 irons that I bought brand new when they were released (2004 I believe?). I play about 50 rounds a year, and they still look like new.

    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
