I like the looks of most of the forged blades, but my favorite is the Muira Baby Blades and the Wilson FG 62.

Of the new, mass-produced crop I agree that the FG 62s are the clear lookers.

First post ...

The sweetest looking set of cavity backs are the Zevo z1's....

The sweetest looking blades/MB's are an odd offering from a defunct company in Florida. Their product was called, "Angstmaker".

I'm totally up for a challenge, but these look ridiculously hard to hit. Almost as if an advanced engineering degree may help. Did any pro's ever play/win with these?

You can tell how hard they are to hit just by how much weight is at the top of the face. More weight at the bottom=easier to get in the air=easier to hit.

Waiting out the 2 feet of snow that just dropped on the course....

I must confess, I like some big . . . toplines.

I have some vintage MacGregors (50s) and Burkes (late 50s or early 60s) and they have a small head with a relatively thick topline. They're beautiful and feel solid even a couple grooves too high (they only have about 1/2 a dozen grooves anyway).

    • Hey, thanks for the feedback. I do lift weights but I’m also adding yoga or Pilates for mobility and flexibility to my routine. 
    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
