Mizuno 64/69 split set 1 degree upright (4-pw)

Would be an amazing experience to have a detailed fitting session. The new TM line looks excellent and would love to upgrade to a new set. I'd be more than happy to provide feedback to the WRX members.

Scratch hdcp

Nike VR Pro Combo irons with Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400

Not fit, but I've been playing the same specs and shaft for years

Being left handed I have limited options to a true forged players iron. I've been interested in trying the P750 but no one has a demo. Would love to game them if they are as good as the pictures look.

Smiggs84 · August 12, 2017

Current USGA handicap: 7

Current irons and shafts: PXG 0311/0311T with KBS tour S 110G

Were you fit for your current irons? Yes at Peak Performance in Toronto Ontario in September 2016

State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf: Taylormade firesole was my 1st driver ever. That bubble shaft was the pinnacle of shaft technology. Always been a fan of TM until the last couple years. I have gone away from most of there products due to redundancy and mediocre products. I would really like to see if TM could reignite that passion I use to have for there products.

jpw27 · August 12, 2017

Current hdcp: 6.7

Current irons: TM RSI Tp 5-pw, TM UDI 2-4, TM mill grind gap & sw

Fit for current irons: yes, local golf shop

Why the forged experience: Everything in my bag is TM, from clubs to balls. There is no other manufacturer that has the quality and appeal that TM does. My equipment will always be Taylormade for as long as I play the game. It would be a dream come true to see the facility and be fit by the experts.

GDTBATH · August 12, 2017

So my index is 5.6.

I play the 2014 TM MC's w/ project X 5.5's

I was fit for them by my instructor at Golftec, a TM staffer. It was my first set of TM irons ever, and they've been really great.

I'm dying to do this because I started a business in the last couple of years and frankly, don't have a pot to pee in and am dying to upgrade sticks but just can't afford it at the moment. One time in my life, I'd love to try out the "latest and greatest" and this years' offerings (770, 750 and potentially, 730's) look absolutely incredible. I've actually been borrowing the 770's when I practice indoors haha.

I'm on Twitter and very active so I'm glad to post updates. I would absolutely love this experience!!!

MaxdaSwede · August 12, 2017

Current USGA handicap - 9

What are your current irons and shafts (be specific) - Titleist MB 712 with Project X Tour stiff shafts 1/2 long

Were you fit for your current irons? No I was not.

State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf - I have always been a huge fan of Taylormade equipment and always had at least one of their clubs in my bag. After playing the RAC TP blades for 10 years I am craving that feeling of Taylormade irons again and would love the chance to document a full experience like they are offering.

Congrats to whoever gets chosen as this would be a once in a lifetime experience!

P.S. This would make an amazing 30th birthday present today for me nudge nudge wink wink haha

mattpark81 · August 12, 2017

Handicap 6.1

Currently playing tm rsi1 reax reg flex

Fitted at golf galaxy when rsi models first came out

I would love the opportunity to test out the different models and discuss w tm r&d team my experience from the perpective of a weekend warrior with an average swing speed whose swing is not necessarily the prettiest but is consistent and someone who firmly believes that the shaft is just as important if not more important than the head of the club. I am constantly testing new models of irons and find that most brands including tm focuses and markets "distance" and "forgiveness" bc thats what most golfers are looking for. While forged irons def feel better, i chose the rsi1 (a game improvement iron) over the rsi2 (better players iron with forged face) bc i was consistently hitting my balls 5-10 yards further and it was simply much easier to hit (due largely in part by shaft flex and more offset). I cant shape shots. I hit a natural fade and thats all i can play. Blades intimidate me as i cant hit the sweet spot everytime. Most forged irons are better players irons and have a thinner top line w less offset. I would love to play forged and to get fitted w a set of tm forged irons w the shaft that is best suited for my swing would be a dream come true. However i would easily sacrifice playing forged and continue to play my game improvement cast irons if it turned out that the forged irons did not improve my game. I would love the opportunity to find out.

Texas_Tiger85 · August 12, 2017

1) Index: 3.2

2) Mizuno MP-59 w/ Aerotech i95 stiff shafts

3) No

4) I was fit by Taylormade for my driver and 3 wood and am curious if their irons can help me as much as those clubs have.

richg104 · August 12, 2017

Current Handicap - 4.4

Current Irons and Shafts:

Volkey SM6 46,50,54 bent to 55,60

all irons 1/2 " over, 2* up

Why do you want to go:

Were you fit for your current irons? If so, where / when? Have tried to fit myself based on trial and error.
State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf I have always wanted to come to the kingdom ever since I started a year ago. The game is starting to come along and I think a set of custom fit TM irons would be able to take me to the next level! I would love to come out and write a full review on my time at the kingdom!

johnwmarshall · August 12, 2017

My current handicap is 15

I was not fit for these irons

I am a new golfer - playing for < 3 years. I would like the opportunities to be properly fit for clubs so that I can continue to improve my swing and lower my handicap. I currently use Taylor Made woods (driver, 3wood, 5wood and hybrid) and love these clubs. I'm interested to see if I like using their irons as well.

lits01 · August 12, 2017

Current handicap - 5.1

Current irons - Titleist AP2 714 project x 6.0

Fit at private country club

I have been a long term Titleist player, but recently began a switch to Taylormade, starting with an M2 3HL with Black Tie shaft. Have been admiring the P770s since they hit the market. Having been fitted for most clubs in my bag, including my putter, the experience to work with the Taylormade team in a switch to their clubs would be a dream come true.

leezer99 · August 12, 2017

10.5
Mizuno MP59 - S300 hard stepped
Yes - local golf shop two years ago
Have been looking for a new set of fitted irons to replace the Mizunos but haven't found any that feel or perform better. Maybe this experience would be the thing that changes my mind.

hanshv · August 12, 2017

Handicap. 9.5

Callaway apex cf 16 UST recoil

Fit at local golf galaxy

Having access to a real fitting like the pros, not sure how accurate the first fitting was done. I've had TM clubs in the past , this new line is exciting.

coreyl · August 12, 2017

- Current USGA handicap
- 4.4
- What are your current irons and shafts (be specific)
- Mizuno JPX 900 Forged / Project X LZ.
- Were you fit for your current irons? If so, where / when
- Not professionally, but I spent a lot of time on a launch monitor trying different steel shafts before I pulled the trigger.
- State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf
- Like most here, I am a golf hoe, and I would love a full professional fitting. And the experience that others have written about from these trips sounds awesome. I also am just coming back from a bout of tendonitis in my elbow and would love a proper fitting into a graphite iron shaft to see if it could help with the wear and tear on the body.
- I am more than willing to provide detailed honest reviews, and I am not a fanboy of any particular brand as I carry a fairly mixed bag o sticks.
[*]Many thanks for the opportunity :D

FortKnox204 · August 12, 2017

Current USGA handicap +2.3
What are your current irons and shafts (be specific) - TaylorMade PSI Tour (4-PW) with Nippon Modus 3 120x.
Were you fit for your current irons? If so, where / when? Not fit for these irons.
State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf: Trying to play mini-tours most of my finances go to travel or entry fees, I do not have the extra money to get fit properly. The TaylorMade Kingdom experience sounds like a once in a lifetime trip.

klt_WDE · August 12, 2017

-Current USGA handicap: 6.3

-Current irons/shafts: Callaway Apex Pro Combo 4-A, Project X PXI 5.5, +.5"

-I was fit for my current irons at Club Champion golf in Atlanta in January.

-I love quality golf equipment. Probably why I spend so much time on GolfWRX! Probably why I've always played Taylormade woods! I'd love the opportunity to see up close and personal Taylormade's approach to iron design and share learnings with the GolfWRX community. I fell in love with the game 6 short years ago playing a set of stock Burner 2.0s and will never forget the way those Taylormade irons made me feel. While my handicap has dropped significantly since those days and I've graduated to playing forged irons, my greatest area of opportunity for improvement is in 100-200yd ball striking. I'm flighting the ball too low and I'm not holding greens. I'd love to see if Taylormade could get me back to that mid-high-launching powerful feel I miss in my Burner 2.0s with the consistency and feel their new forged lineup provides.

Professionally, I work in product design and I'm a passionate believer in innovation process, trying new ideas, new materials, etc to achieve breakthrough. I'd love the opportunity to spend time with the staff at the most innovative golf company in history and learn how they approach product design and work through complex problems.

Finally, I'll add this. Unlike many other submissions, I HAVE been professionally fitted before. First and only time was earlier this year. To be honest, I haven't been overly impressed with the results. I felt like I was just "another appointment" and the fitter took the first "acceptable" head/shaft combo that looked good to HIM. That being said, I'd love to give a professional fitting another go, especially as part of such an exclusive experience that I'd be telling people about for years! Would be incredibly grateful if GolfWRX and Taylormade gave me that opportunity!

State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf - What a tremendous experience this must be. To visit a world class facility and have a chance to be professionally fit by the professionals at TaylorMade Golf would be a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Were you fit for your current irons? If so, where / when? No, I was not.

State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf: I would be thrilled with an opportunity to attend this amazing event. I feel like Taylormade has really stepped up their game the last year and I would love to get the chance to test and put in play their latest offerings. I enjoyed just following the last groups' experience at the Kingdom and I would be stoked to get my first-ever fitting! I am a total golf nerd and this would be a really memorable experience!!

Current USGA handicap: 3.5
What are your current irons and shafts (be specific): Honma TW737V 4/PW w/ Nippon Modus 120 X
Were you fit for your current irons? If so, where / when?: Yes, I was fit By Planet Golf Custom Shop in Miami, FL 6 months ago
State why you'd want to attend this exclusive opportunity to be fit at TaylorMade Golf: I feel like I'm just not getting all out of my irons, I am looking for the same forged feel but a little more forgiveness. I love the look of the P750 irons and i tried them at the time, but they weren't producing the same numbers as my clubs now. I also want to go and check out the R&D side of the experience because i love what companies are coming up with in regards of new technology. Being in the Golf business, I do get to try all the new clubs but dont get in depth with each of them. I wat to be able to give full feedback on my fitting experience as well as playing with them because that's how I think how you determine if the clubs fit you.

PICK ME PLEASE!!!
