Hey guys I have a couple questions regarding these driving irons. I absolutely cannot a normal hybrid style club. I bag mx23's on and off it seems as I sometimes need the Ap1s. I swing my mx23 3iron fairly decent off the tee. Im thinking about replacing that club with either a mp-h4 2i or a mp fli hi 2 iron? I assume the distance would be an increase, however will I gain anything in forgiveness? Like I said  not scared of the long irons but any added forgiveness I'm a fan of! These driving irons are more similar to hybrids right? You can play them from the fairway and rough fairly easily correct? Thanks guys

I played the Fli Hi for a few years. Nice club and forgiving. You can pick them up on Ebay really cheap. Mine was the style below. The 3 Fli Hi may go farther than the MX 23 3 iron, so you may not need to go to the 2. I was playing MP-57s and had the 4 and 3 Fli Hi. Launch for the Fli Hi was higher than the MP-57.

@DolphinswinI know more about MX and JPX Fli-Hi's (more hybrid looking) but have hit a few MP Fli-Hi's. Answers are both "Yes". Take a look at reviews, especially MyGolfSpy.com. Best, -Marv

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
