cksurfdude 8,251 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Oh yeah... this happened... '21 version 0211s 6i-GW with the MMT shaft in .. what's a new experiment in irons .. Senior/A flex. The Regular shaft is 70g and I was looking for something just a bit lighter, but the 60g only comes in Senior, so... we'll see... (I know, I know - get a proper fitting and stop wasting time and money "experimenting"! Agreed, but then .. I wouldn't be posting in the "Club Ho" topic ) So Mr. @Grand Stranded is partially to blame .. oops er umm .. thank .. as we'd been talking about irons and seemed to have traveled on similar paths with iron sets the past few seasons, and he seemed pretty happy with his purchase of these. Have only hit the 7i in one indoor lesson so far, and .. wow! .. these really are like 1 full club longer vs the older 0211s. Yes - the lofts are 3* stronger club-for-club but there is a distinct POP off the face on the newer ones that's gotta be extra ball speed from the impact-reactor inertia-generator energy-core whatever whatchamahcallit. And, no not sure yet if the Senior flex was the right choice; seem to be hitting more push-fades to the right vs previously. But with each lesson each week my swing evolves just a little bit so obviously need to swing each of the clubs some more and then also carve out some practice time to hit them side by side vs the older 0211s in the same session. Anyhow, really looking forward to the start of the new golfing season!!! 6 2 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ... ..Tour Edge Exotics EXS 3W/HL (17*) and EXS 7W (both Tensei CK Blue) ..Callaway Super Hybrid 23 (PX Catalyst) and Big Bertha 19 5H (Recoil ZTR) ..PXG 0211 6i-GW (Mitsubishi MMT) ..Cleveland CBX2 54 and CBX 60 (both Rotex graphite) ..Evnroll ER5 (33", 385g, P2 Reflex Tour) ..all in a Datrek bag on a Bag Boy Quad XL push an MGI Zip Navigator electric cart.

Grand Stranded 1,626 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 (edited) 1 hour ago, Kenny B said: Ho @cksurfdude is smarter than the average ho, Kenny. Let me explain how this all went down... I mentioned somewhere here how I wished I had known PXG was coming out with a new version of the 0211’s, this time with stronger lofts, as distance with the old version was not what I was getting from my old irons. So CK pm’ed me and he said he was interested in them also. I told him I knew how this would end up on my end. Once I’m “interested” it’s only a matter of when I buy, not if. CK said he was very happy to hear this, because he wanted me to be the guinea pig and report back to him, lol. Sure enough, I sold my set on eBay and ordered the new ones. We continued to talk and after mine arrived, I told him I thought he’d like them as much as I did. He seems like a great guy, and he lives on Long Island which is where I lived all my life before retiring down south. I’m hoping they work well for him... We both took a chance on a very good deal, but we had to trust the phone fittings we got because these are DTC only. Maybe when I’m up there on the Island this summer we can get together and get them nice and dirty out on one of the local munis...

We were scheduled to attend one of Monte's clinics in CA last April, but then COVID... We have a mission to get together somewhere, someplace. It will happen, hopefully sooner than later. One of us has to make a trip across the country, or we meet in the middle. I'm happy that Chuck has met the clubs of his dreams.

Lots of thoughts..just no recent experience since I haven’t swung a club in almost 3 months. 7 wood is an absolute must for anyone in our swing demographic. I have the G410 and it is the longest running club in my bag. 2 years now. i also have the TSi 16.5 but it just came in before i got sick, so no experience with it. I ordered the TSi1 driver and hybrid in 20 and 24 last week. They will be in March. I’ll compare them to the Srixon ZX 24 degree that came in and is still untouched in my office You can see I have a lot of catching up to do.

seeking70's 225 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 What have I bought lately? Not much... just an Alphard eWheels v2! Finally came in and I put it together on Friday. Took it out for its maiden voyage today on the local par 3 course just to familiarize myself with it. I can't say enough good things about it. Love it. Love it. Love it. I also ordered the front wheel conversion for my CG 3.5+ along with the TFS. They're both backordered right now and I won't get them until late March it looks like, but when they come, this thing is gonna be that much better. 5 Quote TaylorMade M5 9° w/ PX HZRDUS Smoke Black 60g, 6.5 @ 46" Callaway Epic Flash SZ 3wd w/ HZRDUS Green 70g, 6.5 @ 42.75" Callaway Epic Flash SZ 5wd w/ PX HZRDUS Black 85g, 6.5 @ 42.25" Callaway Epic Flash 7wd w/ PX HZRDUS Black 85g, 6.5 @ 41.75" Callaway Epic Flash 9wd w/ DGold SL S300 @ 41" Srixon Z585 6-7, Z785 8-GW w/ TT AMT White S300@ 38.25" (5i) Cleveland RTX4 54/10 w/ DGold S400 @ 36" Cleveland RTX4 58/9 w/ Nippon Tour 125 Stiff @ 35.75" Odyssey SL EXO Marxman w/ Superstroke Flatso 3.0 @ 33" Link to post Share on other sites
