Iron Fitting last night- Thoughts on data

[Priceyd]

Hey, 

 

So been using my old Calloway x hot pros for last 6 years, finally got around to getting an iron fitting. After the fitting turns out my X-hot pro were not much difference between the fitting results, They fitted me for the Srixon zx 5, stiff modus tour 105 shafts. loved seeing my swing on trackman and most swings were inside to out miss was normally open face at impact-I knew that is the current miss. How do these numbers look to you? anything jump out good or bad. will attach my X-hot pro in orange and the Srixon as well to compare. X-hot was from the start of the lesson Srixon more towards the end so speeds probably slightly less due to fatigue, but loved the feel felt more forgiving and felt easier to draw the ball. 

 

Also hit the 790s and loved them but spin numbers varried alot had some fliers and few that didnt seem to go far. t200 didnt seem to hit well- I see my angle of attack is pretty shallow

Not much in those. Landing angles pretty similar I would assume so practically speaking you won’t see a big difference on course. If you felt comfortable with the Srixons and want something new they certainly won’t hurt you!

Agree. Pretty similar numbers. But if you have more confidence and enjoy the feel, it might be time to get something shiny and new. Looks like you might be equipped to work the ball either way if necessary, which can be a blessing or a curse.

yeah felt great and just felt more forgiving, when we used normal balls as well numbers picked up nicely but still felt great. Will be keeping an eye out on a used set over next few weeks. Dont really wait to wait 2 months for new ones to get delivered. Expecting my driver and woods fitting tomorrow to be bigger priority purchase

yeah feel like will be a purchase, going to go back in few days and hit them again now ill be fresh and see how much the numbers pick up etc. But felt amazing and can see why they have had so much love on here lately

Were you hitting off of mats or grass?  The Srixon's look like they had better dispersion in both distance and direction.  On the launch and spin, mats will give you higher launch and lower spin.  If those are mat #'s, the spin should go up and the launch down in real playing conditions off of grass and I would expect the Srixons numbers to be good for your ball speed.  If those trackman readings are off of grass, I'd look at some different heads that would increase your spin.  Your peak height is fine to stop the ball with a 7i but I think your control (distance and direction), consistency and stopping power would suffer though the set with those spin rates if those are grass numbers.

Yeah fitting was done on a matt. These are all range balls numbers and hit few with real balls at end and spin numbers were still around 6300. dispersion felt great and probably alot closer then the picture looks i adjusted my set up as was aiming too much to the right of the target but they felt really nice. appreciate the response

The Srixon's should be a nice fit then.  Off of grass, I'd predict that you'd see a launch in the 16*-17* with spin in the low 7,000's which in my opinion is pretty ideal on the golf course for your speed and a shallow angle of attack.

Is this with a 6 iron?
