Any reason why you never mention Adams Ideas when talking about forgiving
or game improvement irons?
Love the channel BTW ?
It’s so true isn’t it that we all want the experts i.e. Parfield etc to
take the difficult decisions for us. If you believe the advertising then
all the companies are the best. Spending wads of cash on good clubs is
only third in line after buying a home and a car! When you buy a car,
once you have decided a budget, most people go with what feels right and
looks right to them. So go and look at them, try them out then once you
have decided, get professionally fitted. I bet most average golfers would
improve their game more quickly if they spent half the cost of a good set
of irons on lessons with a PGA Pro and practised effectively. Thanks Mark
for another dose of your sensible advice.?
Give the Nike Covert 2.0’s a hit too. I went and tried a load of GI Irons
recently, and was torn between the Nike’s and the G30’s, but for me, I
preferred the look and feel of the Covert’s, and they performed as well, if
not slightly better than the G30s. Didn’t like the JPX EZ’s, quite a big
off-set, which looked quite strange to me down by the ball, and I felt as
if I was always going to hit the ball left. As Mark said though, go and try
a load, you won’t know what you like until you’ve hit a load of different
irons and seen how they perform.?
Mark you’re so right: most game improvement clubs are mostly the same. I’ve
tried Mizuno JPX EZ but I did not like the looks nor the sound at impact.
However when I tried the MP54 both looks, feel and sound were to my likeing
but probably not the club for a high handicap player like myself. Great
advice. Keep it up ?
Been gaming the JPX EZ’s for a couple of months now – compared to the clubs
I was using they’ve made a noticeable difference to my game. Made golf more
fun, which has had me on the course more, which has helped my game improve
more quickly.?
Thought you were using Mizuno MP H5 now Mark ? (From a previous video)?
absolutely spot on Mark – I was going to upgrade my Lynx Elegance irons to
a more designer label but really, over the last couple of weeks I decided
what would be the point – my next set of irons will be 7-9 blades and 4-6
better player combo irons and they will be the ones i like the look of most
as i cant see any differences really between manufacturers – the trigger
for buying these will be a massive improvement in my skill level – at my
age its more likely that my skill level will go in the other direction
towards chunky clubs if i ever need to replace them – if i dont achieve
that then what would be the point in me replacing a better quality player
cavity back with a designer label club – bugger all is my guess – for now I
am happy with Lynx and they go well with my Nike tour quality woods and
wedges ;-)?
To me upwards of 90% for me is feel and looks. AND what in my mind is the
better, cooler, right club for me. Not so much the numbers.
I grew up watching Tiger, so I had to get Titleist Blades. And as it came
to be Titleist is the clubs I feel look the nicest and thus are the once I
play the best with. Its as simple as that for my. I don’t care that I could
get another 15 yards of carry out of gaming a new 915D2 with a 45inch
graphite shaft. I play the 909D3 with a True Temper Dynamic gold 300 (44
inch) why. Because I think or believe and feel that that is the coolest
club. Same reason I have a blade 2 iron. It’s SO difficult to hit, but it
looks like a knife. Its so cool. And by the way I can hit that 2 iron from
tee, on a good day, 240 yards. So that works.
My point being that all the top manufactures Titleist, TM, Callaway,
Cleveland, Mizuno etc. Are all great quality. It come down to what you
like!?
No doubt: MIZUNO!?
Hey “cue-ball.” What happened to the mp-h5’s?
Thought you were using Mizuno MP H5, Mark ???
Any thoughts on the Maltby Playability Factor (MPF) scoring system? I’m
among the minority I suppose who really find it to be quite accurate, and I
came to it AFTER noting weird things where clubs’ performance didn’t jibe
with how they were marketed… for example, I always felt that my old Ping
S58s were more forgiving (in my hands anyway) than my JPX 825 Pros. Much
more. I’d also found MP53 to be a much more forgiving club than the H4,
again for me anyway. Then I found the MPF and it started to make sense –
it’s an interesting system to learn about and debate – and at times a bit
counter to what club manufacturers want us to believe.?
You couldn’t possibly go wrong with any G.I Pings from the last twenty
years .?
Haich 5’s marky boy. what gives on the ez’s again??
Nike Covert 2.0 Cast & Nike Vapor Speed.?
The real answer is that the iron HEADS are all roughly the same. The real
difference is shaft. If everyone puts the same shaft in, they’re virtually
identical. If you choose from the variety of shafts out there, especially
in the graphite choices, they can be massively different even on the same
head. This difference is what needs to be addressed.?
Second?
First ?
The Jesus S1N Cavity Back Irons?
Hey Mark, great advise on the irons? I’m 39 and looking for my first set,
and yes forgiving as well. Was leaning towards the callaway x2 hot in
regular graphite. Your review on these seemed great, but what do you think
for a new player? Thanks?
Mark, we have some new clubs like Callaway 815 d and w and Mizuno 850 d and
w. I am waiting for your review! ?
