Average 150 Club?

[poktangju]

4 iron but bent 20 degrees weak and 3" short from std.

[patrickleeleep]

I use one of two clubs. Either my full 9 iron (40*) or a smooth 8 iron (35*). JPX 900 F. More depends on the temperature and if I can miss long or short.

[LeoLeo99]

Back in the day, it was an 8 iron. Equivalent to a modern 9 iron. Today it's a 7 iron or 6 iron. While I've lost a lot of ss, I'm hitting double the gir.

[MrMikeHz]

Like many have said, depends on course conditions.  Perfect lie, level ground tee to green, no wind would be an 8 iron...TM P790s with a smooth swing tempo.

Ping G25 White dot 8 Iron.

 

One of the reasons I'm looking to get a different set the flight on it kind of balloons. Much older set was quite a bit further

919 Tour 9 iron

[Drivingrangehero]

I have Mizuno MP 67’s with DG X100 shafts and I have to step on a 9 to get it there, but I am in the market for new sticks so I tried out the MP 20HMB and I can’t confirm a 150 distance with them because I only hit a 7 iron and a 4 iron, but the 7 and 4 iron were both a full club longer than my Mp67’s.

I don’t play as much as I used to, and I’m getting older, so I was looking for something a bit more softer feeling than the DG X100 and a bit more forgiving. I hit the Mizuno Mp20 HMB with the Modus 120 shaft and they fit both my criteria. A full club longer with the 2 clubs I hit, so it’s all relative to swing speed, quality of strike and loft I suppose. Not all irons have the same loft to match the number on the club, even among companies

Flag is 150 - 9i PXG Gen 1

if I need to carry water/bunker 150 I would use my 8i

[Stehal]

7 or 8 Depending on time of year (temp 2-30C ) as I play year round at sea level. In my 60's, Callaway Apex CF16

[huyngo1986]

8 iron all the way.

[red5standingby]

2017 Epic 9 iron for an even lie and little wind. Headwind or uphill soft to full 8. I live at 5200 feet so the skews the distance.

[Pworld]

5 iron, but im working on my swing and flip to get it to a consistent 6 iron.

Then when i can hit it with a 7 iron, i am happy with my distances.

im 38, 6 feet. played basketball all my life. It has puzzled me my lack of distance other than just not ball striking properly. Ball goes straight as an arrow most of the time.

[NHPingfan]

Between Clubs. 7 a bit of a stretch. 6 too much club. JPX919 Hot Metal Pro

[Deadsquiggles]

8 or 9 Iron, depending on if I can miss short or miss long. Recently though, as my ballstriking and AoA has improved, my 8 iron has become more of a 160y club and my 9 iron is pushing 150y.

[MisterT]

If it's a level lie and all carry, it's a smooth 35* 8 iron (TaylorMade 2017 M1 - Nippon 950GH stiff shaft).

[LeftyMatt24]

Stock 150 at the flag would be my 46 degree Z765 pw. If I had to carry 150 I’d do a smooth 9 to get around 155/157 out of the club. Stock 9 is 163 at the moment.

Sea level

36 deg 7 iron

[chipa]

It might be an 8 or choke down 6(with an open stance) - I recently realized almost all of the irons I had Golsmith make for me were 1/2 - 3/4 shorter than standard on ave. and I've fixed that but have as yet to take it on the course. I don't have access to a trackman either.

[RobotDoctor]

9 iron (at 5,000 feet elevation). 8 iron at sea level.

[hooters714]

8 iron depending upon conditions

 

[Inferno2ss]

8 iron depending on wind and elevation

[SnapHooker_307]

If it is a calm day, level to the green and out of the fairway, either an 8 iron if the pin is towards the front, or a hard 9 iron if the pin is towards the back. We've had enough sun that the greens are fast again, but the rough hasn't dried out yet so long is dead. JPX-900F, about a club longer than my last set.

[ShakeyT]

Callaway CF16 8i or 7i depending on conditions.

[cristphoto]

For years it was a stock 8 iron. Now it’s a 7. If I’m really on my game it may occasionally still be an 8.

[BREWMASTER95060]

Sea level

36 degree 7 iron

[False Cast]

39° 8 iron

[chippa13]

Perfect conditions its my Rocketbladez 9 iron. Depending on elevation change to target, wind, obstacles, or the like, it could be anything from a PW to a choked 6 iron.
