Going on 10 years with my Mizuno MX-23’S myself and I have no desire to
change them out. I give the heads and grips a good bath after every round
and also have a good bag so there is no bag chatter keeping them in
excellent shape. I have re-gripped them more than 20 times though.?
How do you see if your golf club really fits you?
The pro`s will change every 2yr`s or so and some will have an old
favourite club they keep in the bag for years, why would an amateur want to
be changing every 2yr unless money is no object and if Tiger does it then
so must I {eh yeah}, even then it`s madness to want to change so often an
amateur should get the guts of 10 yrs out of a set of irons changing only
the grips every 2yrs, wedges would take more of a hammering and would need
changing sooner. ?
should I change my Tommy Armour 845’s? or reshaft and give new life? I
would like new sticks, but…..i dunno?
How about driver and wood??
im still hitting DcI 90’s;)?
I had my R7’s for around 5 years. But I changed my driver and wedges every
2 years. I may change these my Rocket Bladez sooner, the new AP2 look
really nice. ?
When he hit that first ball, I thought he had shanked it until I realized
it was a butterfly fluttering around.
Changing your clubs comes down money and personal preference. Even tour
pros like rickie fowler has a 60deg in his bag since he was in high school
and I believe rory has used the same 3 wood for 4 years. So don’t be drawn
into the latest and greatest. It’s the golfer that makes the clubs not the
clubs make the golfer.
I’d say the average is closer to 5 years or more. 2 years seems short for
most amateurs (majority of golfers). Take care of your clubs, keep them
clean. I would shorten the time period if your game has large transitions
(swing speed, ability in general, and youngsters growing up.) Financial
reasons become a main contributor as well for most to keep their irons. I’d
rather see somebody get fit and love their clubs rather than buying new
technology, but to each their own.
DA Points still uses i5s….
I’m still using my mizuno mx-23’s from 2004 as long as you keep it the
grooves clean and re-grip every season i don’t see why you would need a new
set of irons too often except to appease your inner “bait monkey” as they
say in the fishing community.
How do i stop sliceing?
Blimey mark-2 year average iron upgrade?! I can only think of one guy I
know who beats that average! I’d be surprised if it was less than 5yrs on
average tbh. I had 2 different sets in my first 12yrs golfing, both were
2nd hand. First were an old £30(in 1999) set of Wilson1200 cavity backs,
the second,some titleist 990’s(£200/2002), which I stuck with for 9yrs,
before trialling a set of mizuno mp32’s (£95/2011) for a year before
getting fitted last year for titleist cb/mb combo….
Can your clubs be to heavy or to light if so how do you know and how does
it effect your. Game?
What would be the best irons set for a beginner? I’ve just got back into it
and want to get an affordable set to help me along. New or used.
…love to hear which irons have you have used in your golfing life?- make
a great vid 🙂 Keep up the good work, enjoying your putting and fitness
vids, good expansion of your video library.
Go to a golf store and they can actually tell you what kind of shaft your
irons need to be. I had the same set of irons since I was about 10, I’m 19
now, essentially the clubs were to light. I went in to the golf store and
they had me set up with a different kind of shaft in the iron and it made a
hell of a difference in my distance.
My callaway x tour irons forged, Nike blue chip putter, 50 and 58 degree
callaway wedges forged, Callaway 3 wood razr x black, taylormade 3 hybrid
rescue, callaway FTiz driver is my full set :), no more clubs I plan on
buying for a long time.
Lego my i5s!
I’ve had the same irons for 14 years. Might be time for an upgrade….
Ha ha, I’m keeping my MP 69’s forever!!
I’m still using my Mx-23’s too.. still haven’t found anything better!
2 years awarage – that would mean changing everytime bew model comes out if
you just play one specific model. i played Ben Hogans for 7 years before
switching to i20s. not looking to get rid of those for at least 4 years
