Trackman tested: RAZR X Black irons vs. RBZ video!

from the GPPgolf.com range

On a very soggy and rainy Wednesday, we got access to a TrackMan launch monitor and had our Website Manager, John Miller about a 20 handicap test out the brand new Callaway RAZR X Black Irons vs. the TaylorMade RBZ Irons. See our HD video below for #s.

interesting. less ball speed, less spin yet more distance from the Razr black.

hmmmm

Less than 150 yds from 6-irons with jacked lofts. Not to take anything away from this great video, but I just don't think it compares that well to the level of golf "snobs" on this site. The more topics I view, the more it seems that the average poster on here has a (supposed) handicap of about 2 and hits a 6-iron 200+ yards.

Looked pretty windy out there and he was hitting it pretty high, could have a big impact on the total distance. I threw the numbers in flightscope trajctory optimizer and it said 171 carry which would seem more reasonable considering that ball speed.

Being a Razr X user, I was not surprised to see the slight preference given to the Callaway club. By the way, his swing looks better than the average 20 handicapper to me.

I wish lol

I haven't heard much at all about these Razr X Black's... I'm a Callaway fan so I'm excited to hear more feedback on these, especially since they beat the RBZ's in this test (worst club name everrrrrr)

That guys swing looks a lot better than his handicap would indicate. He looks like a single digit player.

[yahtzee]

If he really is a 20hcp he wouldn't have consistent ball striking which would mean the number could be all over the board. He could hit another 3 shots with each iron and the results could be the total opposite. That said, he doesn't look like a 20hcp.

[Vindog]

Anyone ever think that, while his swing looks okay, he can't score, or has no short game, or can't hit greens due to problems with direction?
