Ping G30's haven been in bag since they were released and I haven't even hit another iron since. Before them the longest I kept any iron set was 1 year max.

S55 til the day I die. Or when they make new S series. Which it doesn't appear they will soon...or will they?

Love em. Nothing has even come close. Apex I hit further, but in the Pepsi challenge, the pings just won. Distance isn't everything.

Had my Wilson Staff for many many years now, test a lot of clubs (all of them) and as much as I want to buy a new set I haven't found anything better!

Doesn't stop me from trying them all!!

No matter what I try after a few rounds I'm back to my 690.cb's. I'm on my second set and they are getting pretty worn so time to start tryouts again.

Still gaming my RSi 1Ò€ℒs here in 2018. Tried the single length but they never pushed the 1Ò€ℒs out of the bag. Maybe going to the M2 2017 or G700. Not sure yet.

nothing can knock my J15 DF out of the bag. I am not even interested to try anything else until there is nothing left of them.

S55s here. Tried iE1 but found them too big and the sole too wide even though they are just marginally such. S55s just perform better from every lie except possibly the tee box.

Been gaming my MP68s since I was fitted for them right after they came out. I’ve had 0 desire to change with they way they’re working for me now. Had a 4-5 year stint with only a few rounds a year, so there’s not enough wear to contemplate having to replace any

I love my MP-5s and MP-4s. I’m sure the 18s are fantastic but they’re not good enough to justify dropping what’s been working for me. That said, it took a lot of iron sets for me to find the right ones and I was definitely in ho mode for a long time.

Very much so. 57's are almost 2 years old and the backup/travel 64's are almost 4 years old. Changing out either set never crosses my mind.
