All I was saying is that WOW the 0311P Gen 6 is nowhere near that. Aside from that, in the fittings I've done I have gotten an education about static vs. dynamic lofts, which makes sense, and have seen some pretty "retro" lofted clubs launch lower than their stated #s and some pretty strongly lofted clubs launch higher during fittings. Shaft and swing both have a potentially significant impact on what you really get. Let the right hand take over and keep your weight on the backside and one can turn a 6 iron into a 60° wedge.

But that’s not what your reply was stating. That last sentence stating you have no idea where anyone gets a 41 degree PW. And the first sentence saying Yeah…no. You went into your pxg fitting and your lofts. The way it came off was trying to basically say someone was an idiot for saying they had a 41 degree PW. I’m not upset, nor am I trying to argue. But that is the way it read, at least to me.

PrismFlopper Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Hard PW. Smooth typically can carry to 145. If we’re playing up hill probably go for a really choked down soft 9. Depends on how im swinging that day. Rob Person 1 Quote Been playing for about 2 years in total. Winter breaks and a 6month period when I got sick. Starting to feel like myself again and recently played a “okay” round. I currently have custom fit Cobra LTDx irons/wedges, a Vokey 60(cause my short game has been the best part of my game, and a Maverick 9 deg. Driver. Driving is the worst part of my game so My 4 iron usually takes alot of the long game abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

och27 Posted Tuesday at 08:35 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:35 PM I'll be taking my 8i, which SHOULD rollout right onto the green. It LIKELY is going to result in a piss missile, which, fingers crossed, rolls out right by the green. I'd consider taking my 7i and swinging easy, which would result in a beautiful shot...right over the green. zstokes and jswatson0917 2 Quote WITB: Driver: Cobra Speedzone Extreme 5W: Callaway Big Bertha B21 4H: Callaway Rogue ST 5i-PW: Cobra Radspeed 52°: Vokey BV52 56°: Cleveland CBX2 Flat Stick: L.A.B Link 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
