Woo hoo! Mine came yesterday while I was checking in to play skins. Put them into play immediately and birdied the first 2/3 holes. They are every bit as good as advertised, if you can hit anywhere near the center of the face. Pretty stoked.

Who needs a reason? Going to sell some excess clubs .... and also get a set of the 620mb's. Loved them when I hit them yesterday

Unlikely any of these will displace my beloved bp's .. but I need a 2nd set at the cottage and a 3rd set at the twin's place in Myrtle Beach

Plus a set for out of town guests

Hey how about a set for an in town guest ( hint hint) seriously I had not checked out this thread. those irons favor my 2000 Dunlop Aussie blades--- I also think I can hit the deuce with that set because I can hit any of my Mac blade 2irons and can hit that Aussie 2 iron--- and seriously I do not consider myself a ball striker

Cardi, when I had my BP’s, I did not even think about swing weight, as I naïvely thought they come with what ping makes them, that’s the science they had behind them and made them a great club! So mine came SW 0, guess that is stock. So say my 919’s come in with a certain SW, say 2, and the shafts work well for them. Should I order a set of BP’s if I want to go down that road again with that same setup? Just looking for humble opinions!

Jerry, stock is D2. Make sure whoever enters them gets that put in the computer correctly. Otherwise, there's a lot more variance. Mine luckily were less than a point off -- all of them came in about d1.3, so I was ok with it. But I also noticed DD didn't enter the weights explicitly except for one wedge. Sure enough, that wedge was d4.0. It's all a matter of getting **exactly** what you want onto the build ticket.

 

14 Pings. Blueprints are incredibly good. Fetch is the most underrated putter on the market. Don't @ me.

Thanks, yeah when weighed mine were D0 so seemed light compared to Z forged. Not sure, but I know I was one of first few to get my set. I have to be honest I’m not 100% what my preferred weight is supposed to be, I need a second look next fit session, possibly a second party opinion.

Mat,

I found and interesting article, never heard this before........

MOI Matching as an Alternative to Swing Weight Matched Clubs

Matching all clubs in a set to their MOI has become a viable alternative to swing weight matching for many golfers. MOI matching may also be thought of roughly as building the clubs in a set to progressively increase swing weights from long to short irons in the set.

 

Candidates for MOI matching over swing weight matching can be golfers who:

 

Go in and out of consistency issues with the irons

Suffer from occasional-to-frequent bouts of pulling short iron shots offline

Sense less comfort and consistency with the short irons vs other irons in the set

There is at least one monster thread on this. It's a reasonable approach. If you want to make it easy on yourself, just order everything in 0.5sw increases. Thus your 5 is a d2, 6 is d2.5, etc until you get to your PW. It's not perfect, but I'm not sure it's worth it. I've tried it myself, and I found it to be ok -- but don't go to any great lengths to do it. After you MOI, then you start to wonder why you're not SLI, then your grips... then suddenly you have a case of the Chambeaus.

14 Pings. Blueprints are incredibly good. Fetch is the most underrated putter on the market. Don't @ me.

What this thread has definitely sold me on is trying heavier swingweights in my irons. Sending my S55’s back to PING this winter to beef up those CTP’s.

I've tried it myself, and I found it to be ok -- but don't go to any great lengths to do it. After you MOI, then you start to wonder why you're not SLI, then your grips... then suddenly you have a case of the Chambeaus.

 

Not to High-Jack this tread, but a Custom order with 4/8" between club and 0.5 SWP progression might not be within what they accept, but there is another way to it all...Order the set to FLAT SW value where you focus on specs for your #9 iron on play and SW value. Order the set with grips loose. When you get the set home, you cut them shorter progressively by 2.0 mm from the #8 and longer. if the set is 3-PW your #3 iron becomes "1 club shorter", and SW progression WITHOUT reset of head weight becomes 1.1 SW pr inch, or 1 step closer to Actual Moi match of 1.33 SW pr inch.

 

This way we combine a progressive slope very close to actual MOI, and slightly easier long irons to play since both length and resistance goes down. This way the player who could not handle his #4 iron can squeeze that club in, or the player who could not handle his #3 iron makes room for that club. If you already play 3-PW you make room for a Driving iron you can handle.

 

Its a better and easier set to play, vs a set made to 4/8" with 0.5 SWP progression, and a good option to going 3/8" who demands little reset of head weight (lead tape, tips weight or tungsten powder).

 

Compare of standard 4/8"(12.7 mm) vs 10.7 mm vs 3/8" (9.35 mm)

Starting from #8 makes a slightly longer set vs stating from #8

icna1jif62dk.jpg

 

How to butt cut shafts to make this sets. Butt cut is equal to how much shorter we go on that club vs STD.

 

m8susqmr7j95.png

 

So, just order the set to what ever specs needed for the #9 iron and the same FLAT SW value for all - Then butt cut 2.0 mm progressively like the chart, add grips on, and get out to play.

 

I cant be much easier than that. Then you get a set thats very closed to MOI matched (closer than 4/8" with 0.5 SWP between clubs), NO reset of head weight needed, and you get improved ball striking all the way to the longest club who gets about 1 club shorter than standard. This way we can modify a iron set to give us "1 club shorter in" and that club will be easier to play then the one you had of the same play length.

 

If you want to go 3/8" and "poor mans MOI Match", we can do the same. Focus on specs for your #8 or #9 irons, order the set as 4/8" with the SW value your #8 or #9 should have, butt cut and ADD the grams needed you find in this Chart. (Lead tape or Tungsten powder), Add grips and play.

 

The longest club might need 0.75* more upright (if its 6/8" shorter, the clubs thats 4/8" shorter up with 0.5* etc) 1/8" shorter = 1/8 of 1.0* , 2/8" shorter = 2/8 of 1.0* in sets where standard is 0.5* between clubs).

Example for use of the chart.

You play a #9 iron thats plus 0.5" from standard, and standard SW value was D2 as "std play length", so thats club should be D5 now.

The specs for a set with a #9 thats plus 0.5" is equal to using a "std" #5 iron as starting point (look at those lines)

 

If the #9 is your favorite club, and everything is just fine with it, order the set as plus 0.5" with a flat SW value of D5, and _Butt cut like it was a standard set using the #9 iron row as stating point.

 

BUTT cut like this when you order 4/8" with Flat SW value, and use your #9 as Stating point.

All values is "relative to std and D2 as standard", so staring point does not matter, just make sure that club is the favorite, and base the specs on that club.

 

The example set with a #9 thats plus 0.5" at D5 as starting point.

**How to figure out if this is the way to go for YOU?**

If your #9 is your favorite and the club we wants to Duplicate so the others get the same actual resistance, grab your longest iron and "tape down" play length like that suggested shortening was already done, add the suggested amount of lead tape to the head, and try that club off. The way it feels and plays now is as close as we can get without actually cutting it shorter. For 10.7 mm sets, we dont need any weight added, so if your #3 is the longest, "tape it 12 mm shorter (12,7 mm is 0.5"), and try that club off, and if its the #4 thats the longest, tape it down 10 mm and test it, and compare it directly to your #9 to feel if they are a "good match" or equal effort to swing so we can use the same power and swing on both.

 

ALL MODS AND NUMBERS is based on Classic 4/8" sets with FLAT SW value for all clubs in the set. If you order without grips and cut at home, you have a easy job to build what ever you like based on standard components and sets ALL OEMs can deliver.

 

Just make sure you base the order on the specs for your #9, then you can go 10.7 mm or minus 2.0 mm pr club - , 9.70 mm or minus 3.0 mm pr. club - 3/8" (9.35 mm), or 8.7 mm who is minus 4.0 mm pr club - or 5/16" (7.93 mm), you have tons of options, based on a uncomplicated order to OEMS if you can cut and make SW values right yourself.

 

Here is 5 CUSTOM option for MOI Matching, all set ups based on the #9 iron. Both butt cut instructions and grams needed to reset head weights to a slope of 1.33 SWP is done for you. You can make all of them based on a "regular OEM order" with loose grips.

So with my set being power spec, I’m looking for a gap wedge and was wondering if you guys have any suggestions for something that would transition well. This would be a full swing club so something that isn’t super jarring in comparison to the Blurprint PW. Thoughts?
