Golfspy_CG2 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I'll definitely be interested in seeing the Stage 2's when they go up. Will be good prep for my upcoming JPX 900 review. Not so much to see what style you guys have, as we want individual perspectives, but to see what sort of characteristics and traits you point out. Questions such as TSauer's above are good, as it tells us specific things people want to hear for their needs!! mdumble21, Shankster and GolfSpy_APH 3 Quote G430 Max 10K TSiR1 15.0 Aldlia Ascent 60g TSR2 18.0 PX Aldila Ascent 6og TSi1 20 Aldila Ascent Shafts R T350 5-GW SteelFiber I80 SM10 48F/54M and58K S159 48S/52S/56W/60B Select 5.5 Flowback 35" ProV1 Play number 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Stage 2 basically describes the honeymoon period of my irons - it was a shotgun wedding that's ended well for me, somehow. If you want more information, you'll have to wait for my Stage 2 - which might be by this weekend (hopefully).

TSauer Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Two questions for y'all. First, on a scale from 1-10 how soft would you rate these irons? 10 being softest. Also a little project for ya. Since the i200s have the same hydro pearl finish as their Glide wedges, how well do they perform when they're wet vs when they're dry? Do you notice the ball flight changing? Or perhaps distance?

I mean everyone seems to do a Masters par 3 contest in April, or a US Open tough (high rough, fast greens) type outing in June or Bye Week Blah's during the Ravens or Redskins Bye week, come play golf since no football is going on. here's one I suggested that I think our GM and Head Pro Liked. Food Truck Open. Have a shotgun start, after the golf instead of your typical buffet meal of ribs or chicken or hamburgers and boring speeches. Have three or four food trucks come set up right outside the pavilion, and have a local band playing rock or country or whatever in the pavilion. Make it a good ole party.

I need to get more involved at my nearby course. I've met some of the guys that play there, and they aren't people I would like to play golf with, let alone share a Taco with... but it gets lonely on the course by yourself all the time.

Squirrels Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Ended up not getting i200 irons. They felt great though and look amazing, but I just couldn't get the spin numbers up high enough with my swing compared to other better player irons, even on perfect strikes. I really wanted to go Ping again, but the performance delta was too great.
