markb Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I see a 16 degree UDI 1 iron selling right now on ebay thru 3 balls for $56. SB 3 irons (17 degrees) are $99 bucks. There is a good Rocketbladez 3 iron (18 degrees) for only $36 bucks. bag - SunMountain Synch with Ogio Synergy X4 cartdriver - Optiforce 440, Paderson Kevlar Green stiff 46.5"fwoods - Jetspeed, 3HL regularirons - Speedblades 3-8, 85g stiff steel, 2 upwedges - Scor 40, 45, 50, 54, 58putter - Ketsch 35" slight arc, SuperStroke 2.0 mid-slimball - ProV1x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Theoo Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I have not but will look into it. Thanks for the suggestion! How does it compare to the udi? Have you gotten to hit both? I have hit both, the UDI off of grass and the H5 in the store, I would give a slight edge to the H5 cause it has a bit of a thinner sole which I prefer.

Undershooter Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 Update: My options locally are slim so I checked out Edwin watts and while they didn't carry the 1i in either club, I compared the udi 2i to the mph5 3i. The top line was close to the same size on both but the sole of the club was much larger on the mph5. You could also see the back of the mph5 where you could not on the udi. I liked both clubs but preferred the udi. I still can't find one on the cheap so I decided to order an mph5 with the specs and shaft I prefered from 2nd swing. Paid 125 and it shipped free so I'm looking forward to putting it in the bag. Now I have to decide which wedge to take out.

Undershooter Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 I'd lean towards the PW or GW depending on which you use more and gapping Use them both a lot. The 56 is the least used club out of my wedges. Thinking of bending my 50, two degrees weak to try and bridge the gap a little if I pull the 56. Maybe the reason for this thread will have some purpose other than just knowledge after all.

Kor.A.Door Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 If you are putting a long iron in the bag, maybe removing a wedge is not the answer, if you only have 3 wedges it shouldnt be a problem, your set would look like. D, 3w, 2i, 3i, 4i, 5i, 6i, 7i, 8i, 9i, pw, gw, sw, putter. That's 14 Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only utility club I've tried, similar to the ones you're discussing, is the Srixon U45 I swung last week at the PGA show. If I were to get one, it would be replacing either a fairway wood or a hybrid, so I'd keep my wedges as they are.

Undershooter Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Right now I've got it set up D 3w 1i 3i-pw gw lw. It's not prefect yet but the plan is to remove my 60* lw head and put on the 58* back up head I have. Also to bend my 50* wedge to 52*. Hopefully that should take care of everything. I'm a big fan of the mizuno mph5 1i that theo suggested btw!
