Hey there fellow golfers..   I just wanted to share my experience with some like minded people.  So I was playing the other day and noticed a fellow playing an old set of Hogan blades.  I have always been obsessed with Mr Hogan's career and life so I was drawn to them...  They looked a lot like a set of mp32's I have but the sole on these clubs was much wider in the middle.  They are the Hogan Radial Irons circa 1983.  I left the course later that day and went on EBAY and found a set for 50 bucks.. I offerd them 35 and they were sent to me the next week.  I played a round and found that the set is very very nice!  These irons are Forged and they are really small!  but the sole is designed by ben hogan to be low weight distrobution to promote a higher ball flight..  I was a little thrown by the amount of offset on the set.. but I adjusted myself to accomodate that.  I play Titliest Ap2's and also have mp32s to practice ball striking with.  So this set of Radials are really great!  I really like the E and S wedges..  the bounce on them is so nice!!  I have ousted my Cleveland 54 and my taylormade 60 for these two wedges..  The E wedge is a great choice from inside 100 yards!  If you're interested in some really nice vintage irons that look and feel amazing.. check out the Hogan Radials... they are so cheap on ebay and you wont be disappointed.  There are a few differnt versions.. the earliest is the 83 radials without the underline... and then they added an underline.. and I believe they eventually made a cast set of radials with no underline.   

so nice!!!!  diamond in the rough!!!

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
