Low 2 but currently 3/4. Titleist 620CB&MBs 3-PW with Steelfiber i110-S plus Titleist 718 T-MB 17* 2 iron with i95-S - Da** I love this game.

[trex858]

0.7 handicap. Srixon z785 3-pw with UST mamiya prototype 110 f5 X graphite shafts. Best shafts I've ever played, cant begin to rave how much more consistent, lower spin, and stable they feel compared to other steel shafts I've used. Expensive, but well worth it for my game :)

Currently a 4.2

5-PW Mizuno JPX 919F with DG120 X100's

[Cachaulo]

What shafts and what is your wedge setup? Did you change lofts at all?

[golfer55082]

What is the iron split for the three Srixon models? Mobile users cannot see signatures, only main text.

5 trending down

 

Main set: Srixon 945 5-PW + 785 4 iron TI X100 ssx1

Second set: Srixon 745 4-PW Nippon SPB X

Testing: Ping Blueprint though I don’t know how it’s going to go. They’re TINY and no idea what to combo as the 4.

interested in: Miura MC501 but worried about offset.

Apex Pro 2014 with Recoil 110s F4, still in the bag for going on 6th year now.

[scooterhd2]

currently a 7. nobody cares.

[Yanki01]

Handicap: flip-flop 4-6 right now.Irons: still rocking the old Titleist 714 AP2's - love them. in the process of swapping out the shafts from Nippon Modus3 105x to 120s. want a little more weight in them.

[High Draws Low Fades]

+1.6.

 

Ping i210 4-U with DG 120 S300. I'm not the greatest ballstriker and these are perfect for me.

[SNIPERBBB]

Mizuno jpx 900 hot metals

[Pete O'Tube]

When I bought them I was playing off 5! Moved to a really tough links course and now off 8.

However:

Mizuno MP 18 MMC 3-6 MP18 SC 7-W with Recoil F3 95g

53/56/60 Vokey SM5

[chisag]

 

... 52* - 58* wedges with Recoil 110's. My irons are a standard loft 4 iron but 5-pw are bent 1* weak. I just installed some Steelfiber 95's r-flex after playing Recoil 95 s-flex in my previous set. I have a feeling I will be gong back to Recoils but remain hopeful the i95's in r-flex are a better fit than the s-flex which just didn't not work for my swing.
