First on course swing with the new Forged Tec 5 iron. Blocked it 10 feet right of the green, but hit it dead on the screws.

Damn kids and their flexible spines, I hate em!

Well boys, all of the fun, name calling and frivolity are about to end. It's time for the serious work to begin and I, for one, am very excited to be following you all on this journey.

@edingc has already laid down the gauntlet with fantastic videos, with a few nice ripostes from the other competitors, so we are all expecting huge things from this (no pressure).

Good luck to you all, you're going to need it!!!

It sounds like the length is causing you no real issues.  That seems nuts after having played conventional lengths for so long.  Are you finding yourself choking down in the high irons and using part of the grip knob on the long irons?

I found that all of the SpeedZone clubs have a better balance for my swing if I do choke up slightly, otherwise I was striking clubs on the heel of the club especially the Drive. Maybe the Cobra connect grips? I'm not sure but I've always gripped clubs right on the end but with these clubs I quickly found they felt more balanced when gripped slightly choked up or better described as a neutral position.

Played in my Handicap Association Tourney today after a small bucket of balls to introduce myself to the SpeedZoneONE clubs. Baptize by fire

43/43 total 86 with net 73 tied for 4th. I am impressed! Especially with the ONE length clubs...can you say easy button? I'm thinking single digit HC by the end of the competition.

In the infamous and classy words of  Lacassem  " the SpeedZone clubs are SWEET AF!"

Great job and I'm give you kudos for having the fortitude to basically take these club out of the box and play a tournament with them. I figured the switch from traditional length iron to the one length would take some getting used to and you're over here like:

The only club I had trouble with was the 60* traditional length MIM wedge! I couldn't hit at all. I guess they couldn't send me a ONE length version because of supply shortages due to Covid 19.

I had the opportunity today to get out for a practice nine holes. First time I've really done that all year. Threw down a bunch of balls and just went at it.

Ready for this thing to get going!

Now this guy is motivated! btw, I have the same cap, won it in the CCC2.

Sorry, but the make a gif link is throwing me off ... is that really you?

If so, don’t listen to the haters. I’m 6’4 and 170 soaking wet. Even at 39, I’m STILL waiting for the dad bod to catch up.

I’ve made my decision on the next set and it’s def going to be the OL ... but there is just no way I can go with the 7iron length for the SW & LW. That’s just too much and think you made the right decision with the standard length wedges.

First range session today with the new clubs. Like a few others I had a case of the lefts right out of the bag, but once I adjusted the club face HOLY SCHNIKES! The ball jumps off the face of the woods from driver right down to the hybrids. This 3-wood is going to be a major weapon off the tee and off the deck! Can't wait for my first round on Tuesday!

I've never had a stand bag, but I've never wanted a stand bag so bad in my life.

I've never had a stand bag, but I've never wanted a stand bag so bad in my life. 

I’m really liking it. Walked 9 with it today on a Caddytec Caddylite EZ v8. It was. A great match. And the backpack straps unclip super easy. So they stayed in the trunk so everything is clear and accessible.

This is also the first stand bag I have ever had. It was a challenge condensing all the pockets from my cart bag and will be interesting to see how I do with it since I take a cart every round. It's fantastic for range use, cause if we get even a minor gust of wind my cart bag goes over. Cobra & Vessel certainly hit it outta the park in the looks & quality department!

Looking sharp with the CaddyTek! Looks strangely similar to someone else in this challenge...

No shame! I give credit where is due. Your review on this model was a significant factor in my purchase decision. 
 

those arms lock down solid with the bag. I had no movement at all during the round. And they did a great job with the top and how the stand legs sort of prevent further twisting.  Very happy with it after 1 round.

You've gotta make sure you've at least got s cowboy hat and maybe even a stick horse. It'll be a hit!

How many drinks would that take?
