Oh, so if I waited, I'd be a year before I'd be able to use new irons unless I'm in a warmer climate with my clubs, haha.

Pretty much.

Ahh, decisions, decisions, haha.

Wait an entire golf season to buy a set of clubs that may or may not be the best fit with the goal of obtaining a slight discount? I'll pass. I'd rather spend a larger portion of the season with the clubs. They're not even grain flow forged ;-)

That's for sure.  No way you're going to save enough to be worth waiting.

Well, I could get an Edel putter for this season and then see what Titleist comes out with and then see about maybe getting the AP1's (or maybe whatever Titleist comes out with later this year).

Go for the titleist 712 ap1, they're more evenly gapped and don't have the need for 2 gap wedges as per the 714's, and they'll be even cheaper! Should last you till the 718's come out! Which, I believe, won't be grain flow forged!

I love my Edel putter but I would go with the irons for now and then save up for a putter at the end of the season, or over the winter months.

So, finally got to test out some clubs on Sunday.

I was able to hit them outdoors instead of into a simulator which I was surprised by and I hit the AP1's well (at least, for me).

I also hit the Ping G30 and the Mizuno JPX (I think EZ) pretty well.

Tried some others that didn't feel so good.

I'm going to drag @colin007 with me to narrow it down some more and (hopefully) decide which ones to get!

I was def happy, though, that I hit the AP1's well (for me).

:-)

      Day 297: putted for about 25 minutes, working on 30 foot putts. Then went and hit balls for about an hour, just focused on getting the ball to go where I want it. Not my best session, but figured it out better at the end.

      Day (2 May 24) - somehow I missed posting both Tues and Weds practice sessions - so the streak ends and a new one begins…. Focus today was on ball first contact using the Divot Board for reference.   Worked with 7i, 9i and GW hitting hard foam balls.  Started hap hazardly and then settled back into my pre-shot setup.  Much more consistent in the latter.
