Funny because i have a marketing background. As long as you dont claim you hit your 6 iron farther than everyone. Then the science/engineering will take affect because of the strengthened lofts.

Why do so many people care about the evil marketing tactics of Taylormade and other large companies. If you like the clubs, buy them. Dont worry about what the TV says about distance and accuracy. If strengthed lofts bother you, dont buy them. Clubs today are better for the average to below average golfer unlike many years ago.

I got my first and only hole in one at Ironwood a few years ago, but enough about me. Make sure you do the correct practice. Dont just hit balls for a few hours. Work on short game and putting. Also if you cant hit it very far, make sure you are playing the correct tees. Congrats on the score.

I have a feeling they will be just like the previous anser irons. They will be good but nothing special and definately not worth the price tag. It's too bad they cant make these cheaper because they look great.

It's all good, at least you admitted your "mistake" early. Some people try to defend themselves and it gets way out of hand. It's really funny.

If none of them are better then dont upgrade. Also be careful with humblebragging, they dont take kindly to it on here. For example see "Considering Muscleback Blades" thread

I dont know what you are expecting out of this new shaft to justify driving 6 hours both ways and spending alot of money. I am sure there are other aspects of your game that you can work on especially since you are only a 12 hcp.

I dont want to be mean but the amount of time it took you to make this post was longer than it could have been to just google mizuno mx 19 and click on like the 2nd or 3rd link. By the way it is 50*.

Whatever you do, DO NOT JUST WING IT. You are a 12 hcp you will not be a scratch golfer with this new shaft. Wait until there is a demo day so you can try out each shaft in your range so you can find the right shaft for you. Putting in the wrong shaft will only make it worse

Exactly what he said. And i wouldnt do it at dicks either, i dont trust them

If you have a pretty consistent swing then yes an aftermarket shaft will help, but it is likely you will have to spend around $200. If you have the money then it wouldnt be the worst investment.

I dont trust the indoor launch monitors for anything other than swing speed and sometimes i question that. I was fitted on a Flightscope outdoors with Nike and it was very accurate. Trackman and Flightscope are the only ones that i would trust because they have the doppler ball tracking. As a side note it is really fun to see how far you dont hit the ball with a ball tracking launch monitor.

I would do a combo of CB/MB for either Titleist or Cleveland. Theres no reason to have MB long irons.

Nike Pro Combo Cb. They are similar to the Razr but chrome instead of satin. And the cavity in the long irons. The heads are smaller with a thinner top line too.

Based on how you described your accuracy faults i dont think a stiffer shaft will drastically make you hit it straighter. It could probably help but not fix. And dont think because you hit a few good PX shots that you should get them. PX are not the most user friendly shaft in the world. Of course if you get fitted and they recomend them then by all means go for it. The articles you read were right about going with the softer flex. Your swing has to be more precise the stiffer your shaft is.

i love the Razr forged, but the long irons arent forgiving enough for me

ive hit these many times at the golf store and they are great but not $1400 great. Every pro i have talked to says they dont perform any better than any other Ping iron. Tour pros dont even use them, they either use i20 or S56. There are plenty of other irons in this category that are just as good and much cheaper.

The i20s have thicker soles than the Razr and have more weights and technology in them, so they are probably a little more forgiving. I have hit the Razr and i would put them in the category of "surprisingly forgiving." If you plan on getting hybrid long irons then there would be no problem getting the Razr. Like you said you just need to hit these side by side and pick the one that feels right. Dont forget about getting the right shaft as well. That can make a big difference.

These clubs are very different. Im sure you know the obvious differences. The only way i would get Razr would be to change out the long irons for something more forgiving. Cant go wrong with either.

Why would you compare it courses you see on TV? They are on TV because they are the best of the best. Most casual private clubs dont have immaculate designs and fancy features. Most are just well maintained solid course designs.

Not every private course has the same deals. Mine is $200 a month plus cart fee if needed. There are 4 reciprocal courses. Unlimited golf, unlimited range, no food minimums. It sucks that courses around you are more expensive, but you cant group EVERY private course into one group.

It makes complete sense. If you go out and hit the Cleveland Black 265 driver you will understand. That thing is so light its like swinging a feather. I felt like i had no control over the club. Dont get me wrong, when i made solid contact with it, it was a great club but i dont feel i couuld get a consistent swing out of it.

Well my family has a membership and we dont even play golf. We just use it to show off our fancy cars and boats in the parking lot while laughing at the poor people driving to the cow pasture they call a golf course, HAHA. Dont stereotype something you clearly know nothing about. If you play golf twice a week and go to the range a few times, you are covered at my club and probably most clubs.

My club has a reciprocity program so i can play a couple of courses in the area for the price of the cart. It is nice to have a change of pace everyonce in a while. Also just going to the range whenever i want is a huge plus. If its later in the day i can just pop in the clubhouse and tell them i am going to tee off and 95% of the time they say go ahead. If i play twice a week and go to the range a couple times, it pays for itself. Also we have no food minimums or pool charges. Not all private clubs are the stereotypical club.

Taylormade MC Forged are great and Nike Pro Combo has a good mix of forgivness and playability. If i had your ball striking i would get Titleist CB with a lower launching shaft in a heartbeat. They are the best looking irons on the market. Im sure someone has said this but im just giving my opinion.
