What difference does it make? Everyone's opinion is subjective.

Their gold might be in your junkpile and vice versa.

Best to think about your own game.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I've read every 2013 iron review I've seen and they've all been different. This video is no different.

why are you always so cynical. i mean you just nit pick have never seen you give much feed back unless its negative jeash. if i was to say i shot par last night and was proud of it you would find a reason to put a Gray cloud over it. i would have to say your one of the worst I've ever seen on a forum. He was just stateing he was happy he was playing one of there gold award clubs.

You need to read more of my posts. I'll be cynical when it's deserved and positive and supportive when it's deserved.

There are a lot of people here who are not interested in golf per se, but they are interested in equipment and what others may think of their clubs?

Seriously, so what if some organisation says that your clubs are "gold"? What does it mean?

How can someone even "agree" with these findings? It's what a bunch of random players think - and there's no consistency.

My point being that you might think your clubs atre great and ten see a review where they're not rated or get "silver". How is that helpful?

People think there's something wrong with what they've got, or that they'd play better with something else. Not useful. Not helpful.

The internet is the cause of many people actually thinking less about their game and more about peripheral things related to the game.

I've said it a million times - good players NEVER crap on about equipment or distances, beut evry newbie thinks that "Scotty's" are the best putters and other players look at and care what they're playing. You probably could play a par round anbd your partner wouldn't even know.

But if you did and you were proud of it great.

I could say that your reply is illiteate drivel, but I won't, just to be nice. I tend to find that the worse the spelling, the worse the attitude and the more easily offended the poster is. I'm giving you a "gold" in that regard.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Thanks shorty I appreciate your kindness. I don't plan on trying to go read more of your posts you have out up. The ones I have seen have been less then helpful. I do agree about people paying to much attention to peripheral things. So at least we agree on one thing. So with that said this is not the place to argue and debate on how right you are. About me and other players that don't match your Caliber of thinking or ability enjoy.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.
