Haha! I was thinking about this when I saw this thread pop up. Guess you'll have to make the final thread: "All handicaps between 5 and 10, what irons do you currently use?"

[Myherobobhope]

Got to 5 with Taylor Made Oversize from 1996... They had regular flex shafts.

Now I'm playing Adams CMBs with +1 inch and project X 6.0s... They are probably too long, but I haven't had time to get in a full round with them yet.

... I played with 2 Pro's from Desert Mountain in Phoenix last winter at Aguila GC. They played the tips and one was around 50 using i210's and shot in the mid 60's. The other was in his 30's using some MB's and shot 81. I shot a 71 using my P790's from the next tees up and the guy that shot 81 said he needs to get some P790's and his pard laughed and said "Who are you kidding, I have been trying to get you to give up your MB's for years" and they guy said "true but a guy can dream". It was a fun day.

Titleist 718 AP2 X100

Sitting in the closet is a set of Mizuno MP-63’s that I’m probably going to put back in play this season; the AP2’s are easy to hit, but they just go too high.

[Hstead]

2 handicap but trending down after iteachgolf getting me back in some better positions two weeks ago. Think 0 or plus very shortly. Playing Mizuno 919 JPX Tours right now but going to Club Champion in Cbus as soon as they reopen to get fitted for something different. Want to hit it higher. Guessing I will be back in Pings, probably i210.

+0.8

But haven't posted score since 1st week of May last Season due to injury. :-(

 

[Socrates]

I'm going to break the trend...

Hcp says 4.4. I'm a shovel guy. Irons 4-PW are Callaway X2 Hot (not even the Pro version) with Recoil 660 F3's. Tried others but these are here to stay for the foreseeable future.

[Largey]

+.7 currently. Miura tournament blades. RP Rifle 6.5.

 

Looking at Blueprints or Miura 501 maybe... whenever golf starts again :(

[callawayjay]

4.8. Callaway Mavrik pros with recoil 780 M3s.

[VA golfer]

Haven't kept a handicap in 4-5 years but play to about a 5 right now. Currently Srixon U65 4 iron Z-745 5-PW Accra 70i Stiff. I was getting ready to order Ping I210"s 4-UW with Accra 70i when this Corona thing hit. My wife was going to buy me new irons for 25th anniversary. She's worried about money right now rightfully so. I hope to order them in the next month or 2.

[enfuego]

3-5 cap but take a different approach that I think is why I've been able to get to where I am. '19 apex w/ x100. Previous set was z565 modus 120s. Generally don't need the extra forgiveness but 1-2 shots a round it saves me and doesn't cause a blow up. Played with vpc/pro split before but the miss would derail an otherwise good round. Don't have enough time to practice so this is the solution.
