I'm not good enough to use them and they probably won't be fully available in the UK, but I thought you American low handicappers may like this review. If the link doesn't work, just google Rick Shiels Ben Hogan on utube... They look great!!!

Yup - only about $4,200 to order a "complete" set of 28 irons (add $560 for graphite).

But then I'm old enough to remember when woods were made from persimmon, and I knew a couple of people who had 2 1/2 woods; so I'm thinking I will wait until they come out in 0.5º increments. You know when the shot is right inbetween a 26º and a 27º iron

Given that I only carry 14 clubs at a time, I think I can get by with a bit less than that! ;-)

In fact, by ordering individual irons, keeping my hybrids and wedges that I currently have/love, I'd only need to spend $840 to replace my irons.  Not bad at all when compared to standard set pricing....

I hit these today at my local golf shop range. Told the guy I would be placing an order in February just solely on hitting them about 20 times. They weren't even to my specs, but they felt great and loved the way they felt coming through the ball. I'm a Titleist fanboy, but these Hogans are really sweet.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
