I am new to the site. I am having trouble finding new irons.
Every time I go in a golf shop and I say I am looking for more distance in my irons, they always have me hit the Rogue X.
I have been a 5 handicap for years until the last few months when I had some swing issues and now I am a 7.
Callaway rep says the Rogue X are not for single digit handicaps. I asked why and he said they don't like the look. He said I wouldn't be able to work the ball left to right and right to left.
I have played the RSI 2s for several years now with the KB 90 regular flex shaft. I carry my 7 iron about 142-145 yards. I carry the Rogue X 160-165. Yes I know the loft is three degrees stronger on the 7 iron but the peak height and descent angle are pretty close.
The one thing that troubles me is the amount of offset in the Rogue X compared to the RSI 2s. It doesn't cause an issue in the launch monitor with a 7 iron. I am just worried that with the wedges and 9 iron that it will go way left since I hit a slight draw anyway.
Should I be talked out of the Rogue X irons....
