5 - 10 Index....What irons are you using??

Recommended Posts

I play Ben Hogan PTx Pros in 5-PW with DGTI s400. The V sole works really well for my swing. They are very forgiving and easy to flight when I need to.

I also have the 4 iron that I like, but I’m trying to find the right shaft to help me elevate it properly. I have a Tour Concept shaft coming in from eBay I’m going to try out this weekend if it arrives in time for me to reshaft it.

I’ve had my 23* Adams Super 9031 with a s300 shaft as my 4 iron for the past 6 years or so...I honestly don’t remember how long I’ve had it, but it’s been in my bag the longest out of all my clubs.

I'm a 5.4 and I am now playing the Taylormade p790 after years of playing Combo sets of blades and CB's or just CB's. I have Project X LZ 6.0 shafts in the irons. I have the lofts weakened a bit and they honestly make the game easier for me. I figured why make it harder by playing an iron that doesn't help on my miss hits?

I've had a 7 at the start of my number for a bit. Been hitting Taylormade M1s since the summer of 2017. 4-PW plus 54* SW. Also have 50* and 58* Vokey wedges. I don't overly try to work the ball, so these M1s suffice. They create a pretty high flight, even with the mid-kick shafts I have. If I remember correctly, my final 3 included the Calloway Apex and Mizuno JPX900.

Been playing 919T since release, added 3 sets recently to open my options a bit, not hit anything but Mizuno since 54’s came out.

mavrik pro

honma 737v and 747v

mavrik are nice, more forgiving, but after first round with 737 yesterday, these may be in for a while.

747 arrives Friday

I float between a 4-7, currently trending the wrong way ...but I just moved from the Mizuno Mp-18 SC into the Mp-20 MMC. My favorite iron of all time was the Mp-59 so I've got high hopes my handicap reverses course when the season opens.

I'm an 8 and my main sets are in my sig. Specs I MUST have are low offset, heavy firm graphite shafts and midsize grips. In a pinch, I can get around the course with any irons if I can have 30 mins on the range.

6-8 here. Started 2018 with P770 4-A. I purchased them in the fall 2 weeks before the P790 was launched. Oopsie.

Parked the 4i for a 4H mid year. In 2019 blended OG P790 at 5-6 for more consistency on misses but most of my approach game on courses I play is in the 8-A range looking at round stats.

Fun/treat set is Miura CB-1008 (I couldn't pull the trigger on the MBs...I like me some forgiveness :D )
