MaxEntropy Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Posted in the What did you buy thread, but I'll add a couple more thoughts here. It was 42 and cloudy out today with a light breeze. Not the ideal time to have a range session, but we all know how it is when new shiny toys arrive, we can't wait to get them out of the box and into action...after the obligatory pre hit photos are taken of course.. So started with the A wedge and worked my way through. The very first strike which I should also add was my first swing of a club in over 2 weeks, resulted in a nice mid height flight right at the 102 yard flag, but fell about 15 yard or so short. Which is fine, as my GW is usually my 80 to 85 yard club. But the feel was so soft and pure. Many more shots like that continued from the P to the 5, the longest Iron I ordered. Now the 5 was definitely one hit or miss, and I may ultimately end up with a hybrid or something in this place. But the few I did hit pure were giving me about 160 yards which is not far off the norm for me. I think these may be the best looking GI Iron I've seen in a long while, now the Mizuno Hot Metal are saying...hey don't forget about me, and that's a very valid point. They are definitely the top two in that class. So not much more to say based on hitting 40 or so balls, but I can't wait.....and I'm afraid I'll have to for a warmer day or two to get out with these on the course. Beautiful clubs! So what's going to happen with the Bridgestones?

djahubes Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Question, do they look like blades? I went with the 585s as well after playing the 765s. Can’t really tell much difference from the top line. I would not call the 585s GI irons in looks or feel, but that added assistance is there, hidden away in a beautiful package. Love these irons!!Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
