tarheelTJ Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Great list to try! Make sure you try different shafts in each as can effect the feel. The Srixon irons are amazing but I find the stock shafts to make them feel too heavy. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zylem Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Well the irons have arrived. I wasn't able to get many good pictures. I was losing light too fast. I can't wait to get back out there on Sunday and swing these things for real. They look, sharp I may have to bust out my professional lighting setup to do them proper justice.(I was planning on doing this once I finish rebuilding my bag and sharing it with you all) My wife may think I have gone mad.

Nunfa0 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Sooo pretty!!! I used my Hotmetals for the first time today. The feel and flight were wonderful and I really enjoyed playing with them. Also I found the wedge and 9 iron were great for chipping. I did have some issues at the start but once I realized that I had the face closed at address the game changed for the better!! I have been playing with TM Rocketballz prior to this and found that the Hotmetals look at lot smaller behind the ball but I like that! the new clubs also launch the ball a lot higher and the flight is a mile higher than the Rocketballz for me but the ball still carried just as far. I am delighted with the Hotmetals and have no regrets about my purchase. On a side note my partner and I also won the trophy that was being played for in the club comp today 3 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...

revkev Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Nice - I am just coming from a scouting trip to the story formerly known as Golfsmith. I wanted to see the G400 and the G with my own eyes. I also saw the hot metal and it is on my list. The graphite option is a bit of an issue for me but I notice that this iteration of Project Xs is lighter than what I had previously so perhaps not. I will have to go for a fitting and see what my spin rates, distances and dispersions are.

Slomakgolf Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Mizuno Titleist and Callaway took about 2-3 weeks to come in after being custom fitted. Ping is usually a little quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itismarv Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Thanks for the great review and insights. I just got my JPX900 Hotmetal a week ago and already shot my lowest round to date. I was gaming the Z745's and was happy with it but the Hotmetals for me was a better fit. 2 Quote GBB Epic Driver M6 5 wood Burner Superlaunch 3 hybrid JPX 919 Hotmetal Pro 4-pw Mack Daddy 2 50* RAC TP 56* Squareback 1 Chrome Soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revkev Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I shouldn't have written anything because we just had a deluge. What's odd about our weather is that last year was a record setter for rain in the Tampa Bay Area. We had far more rain in the Winter/Spring (ask Kenny) followed by two tropical storms and a brush by a hurricane. We haven't had close to as much rain this summer as last.
