Ah yes. I'm watching that one. The shipping cost is a little high though. I'll bet it'll sell close to $100 shipped since it's still got a little more than 2 days to go.

Ok, so I'm not sure if anyone wants to hear a review from a guy who shoots 92-97 but here goes.

So after another season of not hitting my irons worth a darn I decided to grab the 8iron off of eB$y. When I took it out of the box I remember looking down at it like, how in the world will a half moon shaped club help me? So I headed to the range, dropped a ball and hit a crisp, rocket that sailed dead right barely avoiding the poor guy next to me! He looked over at me, saw the club, and immediately said "I'm not moving so you better learn that thing quick!" Lol A few swings without a ball later I tried again, not as bad but still not straight. After about 5 more balls I got it! Once your hands get in front and that line splits your nose (imaginary for those who don't have one) the ball launches dead straight, high, and longer than my 8 iron.

I took it to,the range about 2 more times before I actually played. That was the true test, my first round out I hit about 5 balls with it to warm up, switched to my 8 iron for a few then to the first tee. That round I smashed my irons like I've never had. No chunked shots, no thin shots, just high soft landing draws. It was more of the same the next two rounds.

The thing I noticed from those rounds was how much easier I was swinging and how much better I was striking the ball. If this helped a hacker like me than it should help everyone. Go grab one with confidence and enjoy your rounds!

Read the reviews, and in my opinion, start at the far end of the range were you can't hurt anyone! I am seriously not kidding…

You'd be surprised how often we hear from guys that shoot 92-97+ We all have and equal voice around here. Just a few posts above and back in Dec of 2017 I said I was going to start practicing with my DST again/more. And I have recently. I've decided to carry it in my bag for awhile so I'd be sure to have it with me and use it. It works. One thing I've noticed many people say is that it's difficult to hit or like you Pizzle; basically shanking it. I never had that problem and generally think it's an easy club to hit. And... hit well. I must say though.... with only a few swings of the DST your game has turned pro. My muscle memory doesn't transform that quickly.

This training aid is getting to me. I like to buy one but cannot find the buy one get one free notion on their website. Will I need a coupon or else?

Not sure about that 2-1 deal but they used to accept..

DST10

..for a -10% discount.

[McaseyM]

Has anyone used the Hanger? I'm interested in both, as they are used for full swing. I have the SKLZ version of the orange whip, but need something for ball striking. would love feedback from anyone that has used either/both.   I'm thinking the DST as i can just grab it and use it versus attaching to my club, but then again, the Hanger would have me use my actual own club.

I've got both the DST Compressor 8-iron and Wedge available if someone wants them for a good price. They really do work well. I have addressed the ball for years with my hands well in front so these DST clubs felt totally natural to me as I have been doing it for years, hence, they didn't do much for my game.

 

If anyone is interested PM me.

I have the DST and I should probably use it more. I might just sell it lol.

I had one, used it, thought I was good enough to get rid of it so I sold it and now I should probably buy it again but I'd rather have some new irons.

I keep seeing this and it really looks like a interesting tool. I want to get it and try it but I can't see spending $70 on something that might not do anything for me.

[PlaidJacket]

KC, as you probably noticed.... deejaid (see above) might consider selling his 8i model. If you have the slightest interest I'd talk to him. I have the 8i I purchased a few years ago. I've recently started carrying it to the practice tee again and I like using it. deejaid is a trusted seller BTW.  One thing though... if his still has the stock grip I'd replace it. The stock red grips DST puts on these clubs will turn into hard plastic in no time.

[McaseyM]

going with the DST, thanks to Deejaid and advice from you gents!! The hanger looks good, and hopefully someone can give it a go. 

Another quick question, since i play my irons longer, anyone think i'd need to put a small extension into it? I'm going to re-grip it with the grip I play, but just a thought about length

I'd make it as close to your existing setup as possible...

that's what i was thinking. i think i'll contact DST and get their take as well, since the club's angled might need to be more than 1 inch.

DST Golf is having a 40% off sale for February 2018!

 

The scrolling ad on their home page (DST) states that you have to buy a compressor and the CR-10, but I just bought both compressors for 133. $80 savings with the code: FEBSALE18

 

I put both the wedge and iron compressor in my cart, then added the promo code and still got the discount without the CR-10 being purchased.

 

So here's a good question for @MGoBlue100. You said you don't use the wedge as much as the iron. So do you think that the 8 iron transition club, the CR-10, would benefit you more then having the wedge compressor?

 

I don't know much about the CR training aid, but seems to help you transition into hitting the real irons.

[McaseyM]

just got my compressor from DeeJaid, looking forward to giving it a go. combining this with my SKLZ Goldflex, i;m thinking with a few weeks of work, a smoother more consistent swing is in my future

I bought the compressor wedge from him. Weather looks like I should be able to get to the range this weekend.

I'm not sure I have a good answer for you. As soon as I'm able to hit balls again, I'm intending to head to my boy Shank's range (can't make it up) and use both the 8 and the wedge exclusively for a couple practice rounds!

That is the Shanks that was on The Big Break if I am remembering correctly.

My kind of place.

The temperature made it to about 40 today so I took the compressor wedge, PW, 7i, and 5i to the range today. The club didn't feel as weird as I thought it might at first (3/4 swings). Full swings felt a bit strange because I could feel something at the top of my swing. I assume my transition was too quick (I've always had a pretty quick swing). I hit about 1/3-1/2 of the bucket with the compressor then worked my way up in my irons. Very pleased with the results for first time out.
