That won’t happen. I come from the inside pretty good. Almost too much...

This could be why the fitter recommend 2 flat to avoid a the big hook/pull.

Well, somewhere in the neighborhood of 10-11 fittings tells me this....

I’ve had roughly that many and I’m anywhere from no adjustment (won’t say stabdard because there isn’t one for lie angle) to 2 flat depending on brand (again hard to say really 2 flat because no stabdard). I’ve been fit in both black and red dot in ping.

How does the standard lie of PXG compare to the standard lie for your current set? What’s your current lie angle in your set?

It’s only a 1/2*. I’ve been 2* up, to std, depending on lie angles. He said I could go 1* flat, but to start at 2 and then bend them if need be. I definitely agree with why he’s doing it, to keep away from my big miss, and I hit the balls well, but I’ll still confirm it Wednesday.

Most wanted iron testing has started so I grabbed a seven iron. Looking forward to further testing., the clubs have great balance and feel. Didn’t get any numbers since the gc quad was off.

I should start testing irons next week; I think I have a couple more putter sessions.   Looks like PXG sent multiple shaft options so I should be able to find a shaft that works for me.  They were the Gen2s so they would be an expensive buy as you indicated.

The Heroes discount is significant.  A $500.00 putter is 150 for vets.  The price of the irons is very competitive with other OEM's with the discount. Nice thing Bob Parsons does for us.

Today was my first day of game improvement iron testing and PW was the iron.   The PXG XF was in the mix and the results were not the best for me.  Pretty sure the shaft was the Modus Pro which generally works for me and was in one of the irons that outperformed the PXGs.

Looking at the average numbers the ball speed was a bit slower than the others,  spin was mid range,  and carry /totoal distance were right in line with the others.   That was averages and the PXG had the widest deviation across all shots.  

Generally I would describe it as clunking when compared to the others in today's testing,  holding out hope that performance of the players type club will be better for me.  Will probably be a few more sessions before I get to the 5 and 7 irons.
