I am having my irons bent to a pretty flat lie (i am quite short)...

Now i am wondering about buying Tom Wishon clubs so that my Driver and Hybrid are at a correct lie.


Anyone any experience with Tom Wishon clubs?

Jul89 good afternoon

A big fan of Wishon despite what the naysayers and ignorant preach. Am playing a Wishon 919THI Driver with 10.25° of loft with a 44.5" Wishon Red Label 65g Stiff shaft. In addition am playing a 20° and 24° Wishon 775HS hybrids with Wishon Blach Hybrid 85g Stiff shafts.

I spent a great deal of time reading his articles and then reading Forums attempting to avoid comments from the uninitiated and those with IQ of pond life. From there I found three club builders from his website in the reasonably close viscidity. Called all three and spoke at length. Ended up getting fitted for the clubs mentioned above. Will be looking to possibly change out my 19° Callaway X2 Hot Fairway wood for the Wishon 950HC set at 16.5° to give just a tad more carry. Irons are Mizuno MP15 custom fit by the same fitter/builder.

His stuff is good and I see little reason to be considering changing anything bar the Fairway wood mentioned above in the foreseeable future. There is just no great advantage despite what the advertising companies working for the large manufacturers will have one believe. My last set of Pings were in the bag for 15 years!!

Hope this helps

Have had both the driver and hybrid in my bag since, I think, 2011. They are still as good as anything else out there, in my opinion.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
