Iron Technology


Recommended Posts

The new set I'll be ordering next week will be...

 

JPX-800's (4-G) with KBS Tour R shafts. Which were the clubs that I was looking at the first place.

 

I got to say, It was fun searching for new irons. Hitting several brands, getting fitted and just going to the golf shop hitting golf balls was fun. I felt like a little kid again.

 

Thanks again everyone!

 

Gotta love that feeling. There's nothing better than pulling a club out of your bag that you know is the best fit, and all there's left to blame is your swing :D.

 

Enjoy the sticks!

Actually I'm starting to hate my fitter - I'm running out of excuses.

Love the clubs - hate the grips - I'm a lamkin guy - don't like the pseudo leather look but...... that's me.

I have to disagree on the grips. I actually love the tour wrap grips. If find they last so much longer than the tour velvets and do not get near as dirty. But Krismond does have some good looking sticks.

Hey Everyone,

 

I'm thinking of buying a new set of irons to replace my 2004 Callaway Big Bertha Irons. My question is...Has iron technology improved that much from 2004 compared to what's out now? Is it worth the $700-$1000 for a new set or should I just save my money? You're thoughts...please?

 

Oh...I'm thinking of getting the Mizuno JPX-800 HD Iron set.

 

Thanks in advance!

Im not so convinced that iron head technology has improved that much but Id say that shaft technology has improved. Just look at how jacked up lofts of irons are nowdays and you are still able to get plenty of launch height.

Thanks guys! I'm loving these clubs.

 

Wasn't sure if I was going to like the grips because how shiny/glossy looking they are, but I love the feel and tackiness.
