Day 174 2-3 Worked a bit on setup tonight. Making sure weight was in front part of feet. Did some more work on flow with wrist arch in downswing. -

IMO - you need to do a little more than just hit balls in a simulator and look at numbers, Here's something you can do - no simulator needed. Draw a straight vertical line on a ball with a sharpie, carefully place it on the mat with the line straight up & down and then hit. A mark will be left on the clubhead that matches the line on the ball. If it's pointing straight up & down the lie angle of the club is good. If it's leaning one way or the other, then you need clubs that are either more upright or flatter. Do it a few times to see how consistent (or not) your swing might be. Forged blades can be usually bent without a problem but cast clubs, not so much. I'd go with the CB's; classic forged irons...but not very forgiving with off-center hits. -
Day 16 (3 Feb 26) - Able to get outside to hit some pitches off non-snow covered ground with the 55° wedge. Focused on setup and getting good weight shift. -
Just keep hitting them all and play with whatever you enjoy most! No one will be able to say more than that! If you want to try to be a little more scientific you could find a trackman. Some ranges have them for coaching they'll let you rent. You could beg into stalls at a golf store, say you'll come in at an odd hour when there's usually low traffic. Or go to an indoor/simulator place and just use the range feature instead of playing a course. Then basically do your own fitting. Hit 10 shots with like P, 7i, and 4i from each set and choose the one with the best results in terms of accuracy, distance, ball flight, spin, etc. -

Day 32: 2026.02.03 Played 36 holes. Was fairly warm and a decent walk so was a good test of keeping focus on swing thoughts focused when a little fatigued.
