Curious about any feel differences. I wish I would have. I went into the fitting wanting to hit those but never did. There is a sole difference. I did hit these compared to the new Level forged and these felt way better.

My previous gamers were a combo set of Srixon z565/z765 (now at the in-laws beach house), and I like the feel of my 0211 just as well as the forged Srixons - the "goo" works. Now have MMT 80 S shafts in the 0211 based on the fitter's recommendation due to my quick transition, which I hit much more consistently than the MMT 70 R that I would have ordered if I had not been fitted.

Vegan_Golfer_PNW Posted August 10, 2021 Author Share Posted August 10, 2021 So after a year almost of being in these irons, i am still happy with them (although @dlow206 tempts me with ZX5s). I have shot my best rounds with these irons and are very consistent for me. Longer irons are these beautiful draws, likely due to the increased offset. Forgiveness, especially the toe, has saved me a bunch. What it bugging me is the build quality. All of my ferrules are creeping badly even though i never leave them in my car. I am thinking maybe the heat waves here in the PNW but who knows.

That is .. if the epoxy fails the shaft/head connection is still intact..? Thx The purpose of a ferrule is to provide a smooth transition from the top of the hosel into the shaft. For the most part it is to provide a nice cosmetic element to the golf club. A loose ferrule does not mean that the shaft/head is falling apart.

Thx Specifically with PXG irons, i believe they have a special ferrule because the heads fit 0.370 or 0.355 and the ferrule centers the 0.355 shaft Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 07/15/2022 Driver: Rogue St Max LS - Autoflex Fairway Woods: Rogue Max St 3HL and 7 Wood Irons: JPX 921 Hot Metal 5 to AW - Aerotech Steelfiber i95 Stiff parallel tip Wedges: Glide 4.0 54 and 58 Putter: PLD Custom Kushin 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe they require a collared ferrule but it is possible. I didn’t use one though. The pxg hosel is .370 and requires a shim for .355 just like other oems that use that size hosel. Any .355 to .370 shim works. PXG uses a black plastic cap style shim instead of the golfworks style. They are readily available on eBay and IMO are far superior to the golfworks ones but that is a whole other can of worms. As for the ferrule creep, you can always grab some epoxy and reset them. I’m a firm believer that with steel shafts they are almost completely cosmetic.
