Does anyone know of any new sets of players irons that will be released in 2008. I am looking at getting a set of either Mizuno's or Titleist's but I don't want to buy a set only to find out that a newer and better set has been released only a few weeks later.

If anyone knows anything please inform me.

good ol' consumerism...If you're always waiting for the better product, it will be an endless process

I know, we all do it... but instead of waiting, you can be playing with what's out there now and getting better. Besides, unless you have a specific problem with the current offerings, you won't know what you are missing, and you'll probably save some $ too.

You're right the new stuff is not necessarity better just better. That said, knowing what is coming down the pipe could help one negotiate a better price or await an imminent price reduction. Had I known of update for early 2008 I would not have purchased a new 5-wood in wood in October. (I saw that the Canadian price was identical to the American so I snapped it up.) It was my first golf purchase in 16 years and I was excited. Now, more informed, but addicted, it seems that I'm on a mission to replace all of my gear, from head(cover) to towel. Send money.

Correct me if I am wrong but here is what I have noticed.
All the new or truly innovative stuff comes out in the fall or is at least announced.

In the spring it seems that all the "new" stuff is just remakes of the old stuff in a different wrapper. IE the change the color and head cover.

      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.
