fixyurdivot Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Since he's snowed in at present, he probably doesn't realize that HQ swiped one of his irons for this test. These "Myth Busters" tests are great... I loved that show and many of the topics they covered. Interesting results; are you surprised? cnosil and GolfSpy_APH 2 Quote G410 Plus, 9 Degree Driver G400 SFT, 16 Degree 3w G400 SFT, 19 Degree 5w ZX5 Irons 4-AW Glide 2.0 56 Degree SW (removed from double secret probation ) ER5v Putter (Official Review) AI-One Milled Seven T CH (Official Review) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While people often harshly criticize them as not being totally scientific or lacking something I find them interesting and probably more relevant to me individually than the full most wanted tests as they simply make you think. as for this test, It doesn’t surprise me at all. But I can’t wait to read the comments from people that will disagree with the results, explain how testing should have been done differently , or say that something wasn’t discussed even though it was specifically mentioned in the article.

I get those that like the look and I am fine with that; I even like the look of lightly rusted wedges. Even though other sources have disproven the rust creates more spin and MGS did this test, there will be people who will continue to say rust adds spin. fixyurdivot and Golfspy_CG2 2 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: Paradym AI Smoke Max HL 16.5* w/MCA TENSEI AV Series Blue Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Render w/VA Composites Baddazz Backup Putters: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe, Milled Collection RSX 2 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pictures reminded of some accelerated corrosion testing we conducted on various parts and materials. Corrosion engineering is a science in of itself, but I'm pretty sure none of the OEM's factored in the degree of exposure you've subjected them too. You did go check your bag though...right?

I have to admit that I thought rust on the face of a wedge would increase the friction, thereby increasing spin. This myth has been busted for me. I play Corey Paul raw wedges which have rusted; apparently for no other reason than appearance. fixyurdivot 1 Quote Ping G430 Max 10k 9° w/ProLaunch 45 S Ping G425 3 wood 14.5° w/Ventus Velocore Blue-6R tipped 1" Ping G430 Max 5 wood w/Ping Tour 2.0 65 R Ping G430 Max 7 wood w/Ping Tour 2.0 65 R Ping G430 4 hyrid w/AltaCB 70 R Toura Golf CB 6-PW Recoil 95 regular Toura Golf 48° GW and Vokey Sm10 wedges 52° and 57° Scotty Cameron Phantom X 11.5 putter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
