No contest. I love my Titleists, but the CG2 is the winner hands down in my opinion. Ball flight is perfect, not too high, not too low. Great distance. Great control. Thin top line that looks great at address. CMM technology is great. Like hitting a stick of Land o Lakes butter connected to a shaft! Some poeple say the hit is muffled or dead, but I think it feels great. You can tell a mishit by the flight and distance. Who needs that sting and annoying click sound? Cleveland has had great wedges for years, but their iron sets with CMM (Carbon Matrix) are superior clubs as well.

I have also hit the CG4 Tour model and they are very nice. Definitely try the Cleveland irons before buying anything else. You can get a new set of the CG2's on Ebay for around $375 these days!

Haha, I like the Land O Lakes analogy. The CG2's are pretty solid. I hit the whole line of Cleveland this summer and the CG2's seemed like a perfect blend of forgiveness and workability (although CG4 Tour's are nice too). I almost made the switch to them this summer but ultimately I didn't play enough or have the time to practice to warrant the switch. Maybe next year. I do like my Gunmetal irons though...

I almost picked up the same gunmetals, but the offset was just too much for me at address. I strongly recommend the switch. These irons seem very forgiving to me for a players cavity back.

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
