Just wanted to introduce myself here. I'm a 31 year old golfer in the USA.

I came to the sport in my teens, returned briefly in my mid 20's, but it wasn't until very recently that I really dove in and committed to it.

As a result, I am finally developing some consistency and ability to hit the ball squarely. What a wonderful feeling.

 

I'm putting together a new bag of clubs and really happy with the great options out there. I still need a good set of irons and will probably post here asking for advice. The two brands I've tried Callaway Razr and Tour Edge Exotics. The Callaway feels solid if a bit simple but effective. The Tour Edge was harder and slightly less forgiving, but a better arc and longer shot when hit properly. What does everyone here play? I've been seeing a lot of TaylorMade M series. What exactly is the difference between M1-M4? Do people have a preference?

 

 

Thanks in advance for all your help. Happy to be here.

Hello from Florida! Like you said there are many, many options out there today. Getting fit can probably get you on the right track. Some people care a lot about just how the club looks at address. It may be the deciding factor if otherwise you have similar results/feel. You can look for reviews dine for just about any set you’re interested in to get started. Any way, welcome and take a look around!

Welcome to TST. Lots of good info on this site.

Glad to read you are looking at some Tour Edge products. I am a die hard TE user. Just never got involved with their Exotics line of clubs.

Hello and welcome.  This probably won't help your iron hunt much, but I play Nicklaus Iron Max Progressives.  I got 6i-9i in a used bag I bought off eBay when I started playing last year.  They have actually worked out pretty well for me.  I can get some solid distance out of them when I hit them square, it's just my consistency that isn't good, which is no fault of the clubs.

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
