Rtracymog Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I've tried these at a couple of demo days I've done. They are ridiculously easy to hit. I was bundled up with multiple layers, a winter coat and some thinner under armour winter gloves (welcome to demo days in Michigan!) and I could still find the middle or close to it with these things.

scott_jamo Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 These new irons look sensational, when they arrive at the pro shop, I'll be testing these for sure! I'm currently playing the Wilson C200 from a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfspy_CG2 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Taking these out again tomorow. Temps are supposed to be in the 70’s. So I should get a better “feel” for them.

sellemental Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 I attended a Wilson demo day yesterday just to see and hit the D9 forged. My first impression, WOWIE, ZOWIE !!! Indoor Trackman simulator, so take it for what it's worth. Beautiful looking to boot. For context, I should share that I just purchased new PXG 0211 DC irons over the winter, so I probably should not have even gone. Hitting them side by side, 7 iron only of course, the Wilson's won on distance and feel. Forgiveness was neck and neck. All close to be sure, but Wilson had the edge. I gamed the C200's for a few years, just really loved them, but they no longer match my swing. I have a buddy trying them out right now who has been struggling with his iron play for years, and so far, he is gushing about what he's seen so far. Suffice it to say, I'm trying to figure out how I can convince my wife that I need to get rid of my new clubs, and buy new, new clubs. Fat chance of that happening. Is it bad form to nominate myself to be an official tester (if one comes out) for these irons? I know my specs from the demo day, so it would be an easy order. Just saying. Of course it is bad form, but let's just call it "campaigning". That way I can assuage my guilt, and make it sound better. Would that be fair ??????

I hope @sellemental isn't the same specs as me as a solid offer could catch my ear...ha About the only brand new release I have ruled out are the 525.

Too scared to even mention I even went to the wife yet, but since she's out of the room, my best numbers were with the regular flex Dart shaft, standard length, loft, and plus 1 degree lie angle.

sellemental Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Haven't seen any new comments on how they are performing for you. Probably hitting them so well you won't leave the course, right ? If you get a rainy day to jump on and provide some new info, well, that would be cool. As for me, I'm scavenging anything I can trade in to Rock Bottom to get enough of a balance to order the D9's at little to no cost out of pocket. I'll still get a "Are you kidding me look", but easy enough to explain. Will probably have enough by the time the D10 forged irons come out. Fingers are still crossed for a MGS testing opportunity, but beginning to cramp up a bit.
