Bigger name-brand appeal would be my gut instinct (and don't deny my gut  -  like Ron Burgundy, it's kind of a big deal), but also not everyone is in need/want of a fully customized set of irons.  I mean, I'M drooling at the prospect of hitting these one day, but ... I also have a library full of leather-bound books and mahogany, so...wait. I AM Ron Burgundy. Dammit.

Love it haha. Also, RH only removes more than half of folks interested no doubt. I feel for the lefties out there! From spiral notebooks, scissors, dinner table platings!,

There's a place for them.  In Springfield...

Been able to work with Edel Golf through work, and have yet to get my hands on them, but all the stats comparisons with their SMS adjustable weighting is quite intriguing see how much some golfers have increased their distances and ball speeds across all different levels of handicaps. 

Don't know too much about Edel clubs. Would love to give them a try.

had a chance to test a 7 iron only from the SMS set and the results were very promising. would love to test a full set on the course and also really dial them in since i now have a Bushnell Launch Pro with an at home golf simulator

One test sign up is closed and another one opens up. 

Very curious to see if we crack 9000 registrations on this one. What an amazing opportunity by Edel and we cannot thank them enough for bringing this opportunity to the forum. 

Don't forget to check out our Instagram and Twitter to also see when all the tests release! Leave us a like a follow it would be appreciated!

Best of luck all and be on the lookout for our announcement on the previous test Tuesday!

We got halfway to 9000! Crazy to think that these aren't acquiring more attention because these things are absolutely gorgeous. Good luck to all that signed up!

They are a gorgeous looking set of irons. I am surprised by this as well.

I live in Thornton, CO and am really close to the Edel Denver facility.  I would love to share my first hand experience and get fitted directly with Edel if it helps please pick me!

I play the Taylormade 770s looking to make a change theses are amazing looking

I'm definitely surprised this didn't get more sign-ups. I wonder if its due to availability of fitting a s brand recognition.  I'm love seeing small brands that hang with the big boys.

Agreed - their loss is possibly our gain?

Completly agree 1:4000 arn't the worst odds. I'm surprised there isn't more love for the flexibility from a fitting potential but hey I also love to tinker with that stuff.

- as an engineer, I love the tech (and ability to tinker) behind these! Would absolutely LOVE to be selected!

@pozzit @CFreddie maybe a lot of people are thinking the "just getting started" teases and early on in testing season they are going to save their application to make it earnest for something that wows them. 

I had this philosophy but these happen to be that "oohh" reaction item for me, for the tinkering aspects and a number of other reasons. 

Totally plausible - like you though, these “wow” me!  Good luck!

Lol couldn't agree more these are fantastic options to start.

Would you rather win a 5 or 6 million dollars?.... my answer is I would rather have a chance at both. And honestly there are only a few things I could think of putting above this test 

Really hoping whoever gets picked for these buys the extra weights to play around with and report on their experience adding more or less weight to each position. 
 

This test has the potential to be the most intriguing one yet from an iron perspective.

Great idea - the possibilities are endless!

Yea I'm curious how the fitting experience goes for sure since although many are willing to mess around seeing numbers and flight comparison would be really helpful.

I mentioned it in a stop at CC and the fitter there wasn't enthused by the idea of fitting a person to equipment as opposed to testing multiple options and letting the clubhead/shaft combo show from your results.

I would assume it's not going to be as technically tuned to the club settings but rather a fitting for the golfer as per normal followed by analysis of the results afterwards to determine settings for the construction.

Lock it down!  Thanks to all who applied, now we get to work to find out who our testers will be!

Time to make our dreams come true...we'll at least for .001% of us!    Becoming a tester would help me out of my misery when the snow melts in the next week or two!  This picture is real time looking out my office window.  You'd never believe we had grass 3 days ago.

Thats true, I've never gone to a fitting knowing what I wanted and just dailing it in. Also with the weights there are 216 unique combination which will be some fun experimenting.
