Recommended Posts

1: city state: San Diego, California 

2 handicap +4

3 current iron set: Taylormade P7MC

4 why do you want to test Edels Irons: I’m a college student at USD and I play on our golf team. I have a very hands on, in-depth experience testing clubs and shafts for different manufacturers, and feel like I would be able to give a quality detailed review of these irons and how they feel in comparison to competing club brands and also how the weights/weight placements impact performance and accuracy. These irons would be tested daily alongside my gamers and would be put through a good amount of use on the range and course.

5: would you be willing to do an in depth review  with high quality photos and future updates: yes

-Williamsburg VA

-index is 9.9

-play Sub 70 639CB irons. Play an Edel putter personally fitted by David in 2018. Moderate swing speed. Regular flex. 
-this new technology is intriguing. I play 90 rounds a year and need new irons for next season. I just saw a note about these on another blog. Sub 70 is coming out with some new stuff in December and I’d like to see if the Edels are a potential alternative. I’m a tech equipment fan in all my sports. 
-Yes. I would do a strong review. I have access to Bushnell launch monitors at my club to do a deep tech analysis.

4. Why do you want to test Edel's SMS irons?  It would be a unique opportunity to play with a set of adjustable irons that give me the ability to find what weighting works best for my swing. Having that option could possibly help me play better golf and learn more about what works best for me.
5. Are you willing to do an in-depth written review, with high quality photos, and future updates? Yes, and I'd be very grateful for the opportunity to do so. Thanks wrx

Handicap 4

Srixon 765

I have read Edel's claim of greater ball speed and distance and would like to see if I get those gains.  But, mainly, I am very curious about the movable weight technology and the different feels and results from the 3 different positions.

I would gladly do whatever is asked of me.  As a head golf professional for 40 years, I tested and reviewed new releases every year for my members and would consider it a priveledge to do the same for your readers.  thanks for considering me.

3. Current iron set? Split set: 3-6 -> 2014 Taylormade TPMC, 7-P -> 2014 Taylormade TPMB.
4. Why do you want to test Edel's SMS irons? I'm very sensitive to both swing weight and weight placement. I have a fair bit of lead tape to both add SW (can only do so much with tip weights) and ensure the added weight is balanced with any tip weights. Seems like the SMS Edel irons have that built in to an attractive form factor.

always been intrigued with these irons with the ability to move the weight around for a player’s tendencies on face impact. Being a toe miss hitter I get punish with my current set when that happens and am interested to see if the edel ability to move weight to the toe will have a positive impact on that miss

4. I’ve previously owned the SLS-01 with the Paderson single length shafts and loved the feel and had good results, just didn’t have enough swing speed to elevate those single length long irons. Still game the older wedge though. I also fight a slight fade that I’d like to play more of a draw with, and think these irons would really help fix it.

Mizuno 225+223 combo

Having used the mizunos (best metal at retail prices) and Ping anser (best & most accurate clubmakers) i would like to know if there is anything better. I understand the diligent R&D that Edel persue in an effort to claim their products stand to testing. I would like to test that theory and claim.

Would absolutley provide an extensive, honest review & followup.

3. Current iron set?   Cobra Forged Tec X, KBS TG- 85 / Mizuno JPX-921 Hot Metal Pro, KBS TGI-95
4. Why do you want to test Edel's SMS irons?   Looking for better iron strike/consistency especially on my miss - the Toe Strike. One of the reasons the JPX-921 & Cobra set is that they allow my miss to be somewhat "acceptable" and yet provide distance on the shots. The moveable weight of the SMS looks to be a better solution and love to try this technology. Yeah, working on improving the swing but the miss still creeps up.
5. Are you willing to do an in-depth written review, with high quality photos, and future updates?   Yes. Am a tester for the LABGolf Mezz putter since Jan2022 & continue to provide feedback and updates to GolfWRX and sponsors.

 

Thank you to Edel & GolfWRX

My coach is a fitter for Edel and I loved the concept from the beginning. I was my coach's guinea pig for him to learn how to fit the SMS wedges. I struggle with a slight toe strike and would love to see how the SMS Irons can help with that particular miss. I would also get them dialed in with my coach who has experience with SMS fitting system.

I would love to do a thorough review and let others know about these irons. 

 

 

Thank you for the opportunity!
