Nunfa0 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Great write up, sounds like what I did two weeks ago with a similar out come. Except I went down the GI line of clubs and came out with the JPX900 hot metals. I did hit clubs from Taylormade, Ping, Callaway and Titleist as well but the Mizunos gave me the best numbers and feel. It also helped that I love the look of the whole JPX 900 line of irons. Oh and I ended up with XP95 R300 shafts. 2 Quote In my Ultralight Stand Bag: Driver: King F9 9° - LH - Atmos Blue TS 6 Stiff Woods: King F9 - LH - 3/4 Wood - Atmos Blue 7 Reg Z U85 2 Iron Irons: T200 4 Iron AMT White S300 T100S - LH - 3-48* - AMT White S300 Wedges: RTX Zipcore - LH - 52° 56° 60° - True Temper Spinner Wedge shafts Putter: Barbados Island 2 Ball: Pro V1x Tracked By: Follow me on Twitter @ham12_hampton and on Instagram @Nunfa0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am done with club purchasing for awhile.

Golfspy_Lukes Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I can't wait to see all the stage 1 reviews. Those irons really are sweet looking. Most of the irons I hit I like the looks of. The G400s were the only ones I saw that made me wonder if I could get used to them. And the Srixon Z565s where stunning. I still am thinking about what to do with my wedges. Forged set is PW 44 and GW 48. I won't take the 56 out so I guess I need a 52. Do people play two gap wedges? Sent from my Pixel using MyGolfSpy mobile app I would figure out what type of yardage gap you are getting between the 44 and 48. If it's only 10 yards, you could bend the 48 to 49 and then go GW, 54, 59 or so. Without bending I would probably just go 48/54/60 Quote G410 LST 9* Tour AD DI 6X G425 LST 14.5* Tour AD DI 7X 818 H2 20* Tour AD DI 85X MP20 HMB 4 - Tour AD 95X JPX 919 Tour 5-PW OBAN CT 115X(-) Vokey SM7 52F - 58D PLD Milled Anser 2 ProV1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard Mizunos are pretty true to what the put on the website but I have heard crazy stories of people getting their iron and they are 2-3 degrees off.

Found a Golf Shop that has a pretty good selection of LH fitting components. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Awesome, hope you have fun. I played for the first time with my new irons and did not play well. Not the new irons fault just my own. I was trying to play my new distances (these new iron are one club stronger) so mentally it feels off trying to hit an 8 irons as far as I once hit a 7. So I was swinging too hard and my tempo was off. I'll play again on Sunday and hopefully have some better news.

Rickp Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Well I did it ! Not sure how but ended up with new irons, Ping G400. All the clubs that I likeed the looks AP1, Mizuno Hot Metal, TM, Ping i200 I had a different problem with each. Height or distance or lack angle etc. The G400 gave me a bit more distance and better trajectory. Of course I also picked up a Ping G driver. The driver worked out pretty good as they had an assortment of shafts to try while I was still in the bay with all the electronic stuff!! It's only money Some of the other irons I wanted to try weren't available now or yet in Left Hand.

Sent from my Pixel using MyGolfSpy mobile app Must be me but the sound wasn't a distraction. I was focused on height and distance. Mizzys were a disappointment for me.
