Looking to replace the ping eye 2 coppers next month. Been doing some research but would like some opinions, pros and cons from guys who have these irons.... I've narrowed it down to : Taylormade TP CB 2014 Sldr Callaway Apex non pro My hdcp is south of scratch, I don't work the ball....I play a draw. I'm going to get fitted so I don't need shaft opinions. All 3 heads look fine to me, but at demo days they all have different shafts so performance wise I can't get a read. Thx!

Two of our members @saevel25 and @WUTiger recently posted reviews on the SLDR irons.  Check those out in the review section.

I am soon to buy some of the TMTP 2014s but may end up with the MCs instead, or a progressive set I buy individually. I want to know a little more myself.

I'll check it out, thx! The CB's for me didn't work with the KBS Tour shaft. The SLDR felt better with the c-taper 120, the 90 went too high and feels skinny in my hands. The Apex I tried a couple shafts in and I liked it. I worry about poor reviews about the satin finish on those. The Apex Pro's look great but where I don't try to work the ball, I'd rather the forgiveness. Forgiveness is a good thing.

    • Day 133 (25 Apr 24) - Worked with the Divot Board today added a piece of cardboad behind the ball to help reinforce ball first contact. Contact improved through the round.   Added grandson's football goal posts about 10yds out to add a good start line visual Good session today. 
    • Day 120: 4/25/24 Full Speed Spectrum training session. Low energy today and my speed was lower than normal. Will see what I can do on Saturday.
    • Day 541, April 25, 2024 Ten minutes after lessons. Still not caught up, but should be by tomorrow evening.
    • Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.
    • He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
