I’m excited as hell to hear about this! Thanks again for
tje chance and good luck yall!

Try going a round without pulling out the driver. Maybe even just taking it out. That’ll drop it 10 strokes immediately. I used just my driving iron recently and did 2 over on 9 holes, my best ever! 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m still working on my driver (also went to a 44.75in length), but am really limiting when/if I even bring it out.  But I’m working hard on it off the course. Having so much more fun and finally in the low 80s consistently. My goal is to break 80 this year for the 1st time…and do it without my driver 🤣

I would really like to see how the mb irons measure up to my Mizuno mb irons. 

I could be an anomaly here as well, just stating stark differences but when I grab a stick, my hand positioning is the same from my gold clubs to a hockey stick. I do know that we are taught ambidexterity if you start at a young age, I was no different and you are correct about that. Assumptions of a 3 year olds handness is tough and can create issues playing down the road. 

I know that when I first started out- there was virtually NOTHING for lefties. So, after my dad and I tried to piece together a decent lefty set, we(he) decided to just teach me right-handed for 2 reasons (according to him). Firstly- obviously there were more clubs available for righties, and secondly, that would allow my "dominant hand" to be my "lead hand" which would theoretically be an advantage. FWIW- Stenson is also a lefty that plays right-handed.

sounds like a plan!!!!!!

My dad told me about a hockey player friend of his (right-handed golfer) that was with him at a demo-day. The only driver that was available was left handed. Apparently, the friend played hockey left-handed. So, he took the driver, and after a few practice swings was hitting it 275+ left-handed.

I could be mistaken. I have played multiple levels of travel hockey. Growing up in the Texas I will be the first to admit that is nowhere near the level of hockey played in Canada but did play on teams with with Canadian's during that time and was told that if you where right hand dominant in Canada they had you play left handed. It's also possible I am loosing my mind, haha. But if I am wrong I will take no offense to being corrected. 

Having played fairly high level hockey, and most of those same people I played with are golfers and I have run into just a handful of lefties over my 21 years playing golf. A left handed golfer is also a left handed hockey player and vice versa. The two lefties I currently play with regularly have both never skated a day in their lives hahaha

That’s why most Canadian hockey players are lefties as they actually teach you to play opposite so your dominant hand is the top hand.

I’ve been thinking about getting the combo set and would freakin love to test these!

When is the big announcement for these?
I don't remember seeing when.

Thankfully Takomo along with several other of the DTC brands do have LH options. In the case of this member test not for these sets. However their 101 and 201 are both offered in LH!
I do know what you mean though. It is particularly hard her in europe. Canada had so many more options overall.  

It was a tough choice for me.  Moon Gray was my other choice.  

I agree,  as my wife  bought me my sun mountain bag for a Christmas present! Would love to get my name on my bag!🤔😊😏

I had trouble choosing too.  So I am also getting a black one.  🙂 

Did a 180 on my color, went with the Sienna, just couldn't take my eyes off that bold color. Is there a way to order a second? I was going to nab one for my girlfriend

@GolfSpy BOS 🙂
 

Yes. Send me a PM with what you want for the second one! Then I’ll have you review both before we submit!

This sentiment can be sent across every member here, all of us here want to truly know about these pieces of equipment we graciously are given the opportunity to test to better inform all members if they really stand up to the demands of the golf community here. This forum is community driven and focused. We all "win" with these tests, regardless of who is providing the feedback. Sorry to use the win word @GolfSpy_BNG the testing guidelines are also extremely important to read over. 

I would hope that sooner than later takomo will be offering left handed options, I  think you would really like these irons.

Unfortunately this test is right hand only.  Also we can’t stress this enough but there really is nothing to win. These are tests/reviews done by handpicked MyGolfSpy members. There is absolutely nothing random about these tests when we select members. There is criteria we use that is laid out in the thread I will link below. 
 
 

I've been a fan of the looks of the Takomo irons for a very long time and would really like to test if they feel as good as they look!

If i'm lucky enough to be chosen to test a iron set, I would really like to test the CB irons!

First I am a Left Handed player. I choose to test the 301 MB. This being said my actual irons are CBs from Callaway X forged 2009, with project x stock stiff shafts. The Takomo 301 irons with mid-size grips would be the wright fit for my needs.. I really would like to make a positive review on them.. Accuracy, feel, distance, dispersion wise, grooves etc.... My fingers are crossed because i desperately need a new set of left handed low hdcp players irons in my bag. Thanks for having a chance to win it.
