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.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
