Hello Fellow Golfers!

I have been playing golf for about a few years already since I seriously took it up back in 2013-2014. I usually shoot anywhere between low 80's to mid 90's. This year though, I haven't been able to play much however due to family reasons and school work. I use Golfshot GPS for tracking my rounds and stats. According to my Golfshot profile, my handicap is currently a dreading 40.4. :-/ And the one thing I wanted to ask you all is: Can you help suggest/recommend any good sets of irons out there for my average scores/handicap level. Currently, I am gaming the TaylorMade 360 Irons and I want to try something more newer. I am open to all brands and models and would be willing to spend a little extra money for the performance of the clubs (I.e. shaft upgrades, grip upgrades, etc.). I am also looking for something with not only forgiveness and distance, but with a hint of workability to play different types of shots such as:

Low Draw, Low Straight, Low Fade, Medium Draw, Medium Straight, Medium Fade, High Draw, High Straight, and High Fade

Your help and contributions would be greatly appreciated!!

Fairways and Greens!

Paul

As a club fitter myself, if you're not 100% sure on what you need in a club, I'd go to a reliable fitter in your area. Get your swing speed measured and get shafts that are fitted specifically to you. Many brands don't offer an up charge for custom lie and length, and even shaft upgrades if you're buying a full set of irons already.

Based on what you're saying tho, you might want to look into the callaway XR's, taylormade M2's, or titlelist AP1's for a reference point.

Best of luck in your search!

    • 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.
