I freaking love that this thread is still going strong. You mofos have inspired me to send my 8 year olds back to the death star for a reconditioning. I’m going to build them back with new shafts and all. 
 

I got motivated (because of you guys) to break them out this last weekend to play Wine Valley, in spite of the fact that I have 2 brand new sets that have yet to see grass. AND, immediately shot my best round in the last 12 months. 
 

why am I such a ho 

Please post pictures when they come back you dirty dirty ho! I've got a set sitting in my garage and you've peaked my interest 😂

Four weeks later S55's back in winner circle this time with a free agent gaming them.  Some excellent iron shots down stretch and in playoff form Fitzpatrick.

Says what you need to know about the i59, really.

 

I've felt that a reissue of the eye2 was silly with the exception of collectors in mind - and even then they're still not in any way modern.

 

Maybe s55mk2 isn't a terrible plan?

The answer to better golf is work your butt off and learn how to hit it better, farther, and make more putts.

That combo is ideal. Almost anyone who's a decent ball striker could use 8-P.
