Why would you switch out individual irons?

You really want the same brand and model for a good portion of your irons. I've seen some players use a different long iron. Also players tend to use different make or model wedges. Primarily you have 4 or 5 thru pitching wedge in the same make/model so that you have consistency.

I use my PW when it's needed, same with my 9 iron. Find yardage, choose club, see ball, hit ball ;)

I'm guessing he takes the pre-1920 approach to set composition.

no everyone is giving me some grief about this. but i can pick up individual callaway for 15 a piece, I cant spend 300-1000 for new clubs right now. my clubs are northwestern blades from the like 1975 so yes upgrading for less than 100 dollars will suit me well. Also everyone is saying go here or there. I live in the middle of nowhere and as for lessons, nowhere within an hour gives lessons so im on my own. trying to meet locals and learn as much as I can.

you guys are right, started pricing it out so now stuck between Miz mp57, Rocketballz HP, adams idea a12 os...anybody hit these. I can have clubs custom fit. just can afford any of the stores used.

Agree with other posters about keeping set congruent. However you asked about PW or 9i. I use each differently and use/need both depending on shot. PW set up with DG Spinner+ and 9i set up with KBS Tour 110g. Probably didn't help.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
