About 4 years ago I decided I wanted to actually learn this game I'd only been hacking at once or twice a year.  I found out my swing speed (in the 70's) and bought a set of Adams A3OS clubs with the lite flex and 4-6 hybrids.  Since then I've went from shooting somewhere north of 120 to the mid 90's and I've even made it into the high 80's a few times. I've added some wedges and changed drivers a few times but haven't done anything with my irons.  I am also a lefty so I haven't had many opportunities to swing any of my friends clubs to see if there is anything else I like.

Today I went to the local golf store and was told that I needed a stiff flex club now.  They set me up with the only 3 lefty demos that they had; Adams V3, Rocketballz, and Razr X.  Out of the 3 I liked and hit the Razr X the best.  I think it is the offset of the Razr's that I liked but I really am wondering if there is a better set out there for my game. While I don't want to spend a fortune on them price really isn't the issue, I just want a great set of irons that are right for my game today.  I also wouldn't mind having a few more standard irons in my new set since the demo's were all 6i's and they felt pretty nice.

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

You can't go wrong with pings. My buddy has the G20's and I have the G15's and we both love them. I am thinking of upgrading myself only because I want something more of a players iron. I love my pings and have been pleased with them the set I'm looking to upgrade to are also pings.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
