I was in the same boat as you. I was between the Ping G430 and i525. Like them both but went with the i525. Maybe ego, maybe looks, but I hit them well, they looked sleeker , and overall a great iron. Pretty identical to the P790 in looks and feel but I prefer the i525

Aren’t “fliers” just better struck shots? You can’t make a ball go further out of nowhere with the exact same swing, something changed. It’s a double edge sword. For us amateurs who have lots of mis hits we want the face to be more “forgiving” so the mis hits don’t drop off dramatically. 1. Players irons = big distance changes on your mis hits. Your gonna be short a lot of the time 2. Players distance you’ll prob be more consistent but have a few “fliers” it’s up to you

That’s what I thought but someone said they bend back?? Idk I thought that’s what the notch was for also . Looking forward to the i525’s . I started off thinking I would go for the g430 but after hitting both I just love the look and feel of the i525. Hopefully as I improve they will feel even smother

Also I just found out you’re really not supposed to bend ping clubs. Does it sound dumb to get U,PW,9 in blue dot 1 degree up and the rest standard? I’m 6’0 with a slightly below 35.5 WTF, longer clubs feel fine but those shorter ones I like they could be a tad more upright

Ya that’s my thoughts. Currently getting weekly lessons at Golftec. Excited about the new sticks. 6.0 110g seems like a perfect weight for me

About to pickup a new set of Ping i525 irons. Recently had a few shoulder surgeries and finally back able to play so seems like the obvious decision. I use a monitor weekly so know some stats but my swing is way to inconsistent to get a true fitting and make it count. Just want a good set I can grow into once im back to closer to my old form. So very generic #s my swing Speed on my 7 iron averages about 85 mph, a few times I’ve gotten ball speed up to 123 mph but hoovers way closer to 110/115. I want to make it as easy on myself as possible now, but want a shaft that can handle 89-90 mph swing speed. I am leaning towards the IO 6.0 as it’s stiff and at 110g it’s not light, but not heavy. The LZ is 120g and feels slightly stiffer. What’s everyone’s opinion ? Would it really matter to someone who’s very inconsistent and can’t go wrong with either ? The io is no up charge, the LZ is $22 per club

Att iPhone 5. I went in settings and deactivated my score card hopefully next time it will skip right to the next hole. It may have to do with my iOS update I just did

^ that's what really throws me off, I'd think the average would be skewed higher. Obviously the pros aren't chunking any shots, topping any, or shanking any shots to drag the numbers down .

Today while watching golf I noticed everyone on the 197 yard par 3 sixth hole hit 7 iron with the occasional 6. Again that chart may true but I can't see how

Anyone else have golf logix freezing after their first hole. I click the top right tab that says next hole then it goes to the scorecard for that hole and freezes. I have to reset my phone then go back in and when it says if I want to continue round I have to click cancel round

^ I agree it has a lot to do with form, but for me (I'm 6'1) I'd rather just not risk it. Especially since I already have an Injury, one small misfire or one rep with bad form and I could be out for a long time. I absolutely love rack pulls. They has completely transformed my upper back

HRT, especially with injectables is a very serious step and shouldn't be taken lightly. It completely shuts Down your natural production and can be very hard to come off of. If you decide you want to go ahead and do it you should know your getting yourself into a life long endeavor. All That being said when done correctly its very safe and effective, problem is many dr's have no idea how to administer it properly. Make sure your Dr. Tests your estrogen and monitors it. When on HRT/testosterone you should also be on an estrogen blocker (AI). Your test and estrogen are meant to be kept in balance, if you raise your test your body will raise estrogen production becuase it wants to keep the proper ratio. Steroid forums are great places for hormone replacement therapy info. Most have sub sections just for it. I'm 28 and have a test level of 238, I have good energy and recovery Ability but am still concidering it. Again its a very serious decison, and if u want to have Children in the future it's even more complicated. I workout and eat great but still hold a lot of body fat and little muscle. I also have high estrogen so that could be part of the problem. Anyone here injecting and what has your proces been like? Do u inject hcg as well?

I used to do some PLing but was more focused on BBing, I was training to compete in natural shows. My best was B-315x5 S-385x5 D-450x5. I then had some back/disk problems and stopped going for crazy weights. My routine now is push/pull/legs/off. On my off days I do 30 mins Of cardio and tons of stretching. I will say RDL's have done wonders for my lower back problems and posterior chain tightness. On my leg days I do lignt 15 rep deep low bar squats and 15 rep RDLs, this really stretches out my posterior chain and keeps it strong. On my pull days I do heavy rack pulls which seems to be fine for my lower back. I really believe its the bottom 4-5 inches of the deadlift that end up hurting so many people

The point is he kept changing his story, and again its my opinion but if he saw the ball oscillate I would imagine he thought There's a good chance it moved. In the end everything worked out and he got an extra shot added on then if he would have said something initially and maybe even got no strokes taken away. I'm not a rules guru but if he said something initially and they ruled no penalty, after further review could they change it and penalize him a shot?

The 18th hole is a 235 yard par 3 this week. I have a feeling we are going to see a lot of 4 irons
