I’m going to test out the JPX 919 Forged this afternoon. A friend of mine owns an indoor Trackman facility and has the Tour, Forged, and Hot Metal. I won’t have to pay full retail.
I’m not a consistent enough ball striker to hit the Tour irons. While I play to a 4.4 index, my iron striking has always been my Achilles heel. It has come a long way and I’m probably striking my irons the best I have ever, but still need forgiveness. I’m coming off of Rogue Pro’s with ModusPro 125 S shafts. I love the forgiveness of the RP, while still being able to get feedback. Im not crazy about the spin. They are already a higher spin club and I’m a higher spin player (steeper angle of attack).
I’m not necessarily in the market for new irons, but my friend is offering me a pretty significant discount, so I figured I’d give them a whirl.
What should I expect? Will these heads promote a lower launch and lower spin? The clubs he has has KBS Tour 120s. I may play around in the fitting cart to hammer down the shaft if I like the look and the feel of the head.
Thanks in advance for any honest feedback.
