Are C100 irons 4-GW too advanced for me?

Oh I'm using a 4 i

Thank you MVMAC. They feel like butter soo far. The ball just seems to explode off of the face upon impact with a nice high and straight ball flight.

Yeah, the only point we were making with the 4i is that, for higher handicap players like me and, based on your stated handicap, you, is that the iron vs. the hybrid decision usually resolves to hybrid because while we can hit the 4i, it's a lot harder to hit consistently and since you're probably hitting into a green with that club, you're making it harder on yourself to hold the green because irons will come in lower than hybrids and have a tendency to run out more. So I myself can hit a 4 iron, but if I had one, I'd just use it on the range for practice because it requires me to hit it well, and I'd bag a hybrid on the course. I think that's the crux of what the others were thinking who made mention of the 4i vs 4h issue.

I dont use a 4i. I use a UDI 20. Driving ironish 42 inch club. 20° as I recall. I tee off on par 5s and if I am lucky I can pull it out on the second shot and birdy. Also useful for screwed up tee shots on par 4s. I like 3 and 4 irons, but they are too heavy a head to use on a longer better shaft. The makers are turning out some real cool designs. Maybe just focus more on the shots you want to make.

    • Day 54. Was in a good place last week. Yesterday’s round killed my confidence.  Full swing practice trying to get back to where I was but struggled with being tired and tense. Back to basics tomorrow. 
    • Welcome back! Evolvr.com? I don't use the full extreme end of it, and that's probably dipped to 75% or so nowadays. But I use the sole more than I don't, yeah. Also… it's good to learn this shot: Middle up. Not generally outside your feet in either direction. I generally have it slightly forward of center, yeah. Short version: tip your upper body in the direction of the slope. Look at the GC3. You can find them for really good prices sometimes.
    • 3 rainouts in a row….that’s SAD Sorry, I’m in MI or I would take you up on a round.  
    • Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.  
    • Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.
