So, a few too many whiskeys and my fitter being available at stupid-o’clock (we were texting around 1 am) and now I’m a proud owner of a 1 iron...
Oh well, maybe I’ll learn  At least it looks great when people look at my bag
Merry Christmas everyone!

I’m waiting to see your review of Clear balls. You’re our only hope for someone that can pay $1200 for a dozen.....

You have to pay a 1200 initiation fee just for the opportunity to buy them

That might be a 1i I could actually hit. The only one I ever had looked like a knife.

Life is too short to wonder if you should have done something.

Have fun, swing away and post some pictures when you dirty that sucker up.

I get some funny (are you kidding me) looks having a 2i in the quiver.  If nothing else, it will make for some fun tee box banter and, quite possibly, become a collector item.

There was an article late last week about them. They are super exclusive. $90/dozen for first dozen. If you want more, you have to pay $1200 to be able to buy them.

Seems the more I hit it - the better it goes. I think it will stay in the bag for a while.

And thats my go-to shaft. Ive tried probably everything from Project X through OBANs, Aldilas, Oziks 🙂 This GD is feeling good. Im considering putting the Tour AD in my irons
