MattWillGolf Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 21 hours ago, USMCSnyper said: Intro: Guess who’s back……back again! Marc’s test-ing…Tell a Friend! Man, that's awful LOL. I want to express my deepest gratitude to MGS for selecting me as a tester for the PXG Black Ops Irons! I am thrilled and honored to have this opportunity to contribute to our community of testers and readers. I am committed to giving my best to ensure the test is thoughtful and honest. I struggle with consistency, so I will certainly put the Black Ops Irons to the test! Introduction: My name is Marc and I'm a United States Marine Veteran proudly living in the Syracuse, NY area. I served on active duty from 1993 to 2000, specializing as a Field Radio Operator – you know, the guy who's often the first in the line of fire. But I didn't stop there; I also had the incredible opportunity to be a Marksmanship instructor at Parris Island. Yes, that meant I got to wear the iconic Smokey the Bear cover and passionately shout "instructions" at the recruits. Those were the days! I was stationed in some amazing places, including California (twice), Parris Island, South Carolina, and even Okinawa, Japan. While in Japan, we embarked on exciting "floats" (basically naval vessel taxi rides) to South Korea, Thailand, and Australia. My time in the Corps was truly something special. However, in 2000, I was medically discharged, and that's when my lovely wife, Jennifer, and I decided to return to our roots here in Syracuse. We've been happily married since 1995, and our family has grown to include two wonderful adult kids, now 28 and 26 years old. My kids were born here: One at Parris Island, the other @ Camp Pendleton. Now – Golf stuff…… PXG Company Perception: PXG, we know, is a polarizing brand - unfiltered - too brash, too loud, all flash no game, too expensive, only for the elite etc….Well, I don’t see it that way. I have an overall positive view of PXG. Bob Parsons is a Marine (A+ in my book) and does a lot in the community for Veterans and First Responders. The Heroes program at PXG gives great discounts to those groups. For those who think PXG is all flash, this is a clear example that marketing isn’t always the end-all be-all of a company. That said, the marketing is "meh" for me. Originally, I thought PXG was a joke for the over-the-top expensive clubs that performed as well as many less expensive options. I’m not a traditionalist, but the LOUD stuff isn’t my cup of tea…That said, performance rules the day. I don’t care if the irons are lime green with purple polka dots…if they work, they work. My opinion of PXG is they are a good OEM with promising equipment. I was fitted for a Black Ops Driver and it was amazing. The only reason I didn’t purchase it was because I had been fitted at Club Champion a year prior into a Rogue ST Max (and a hefty price tag). Since I am doing this test on the Irons…I may end up pulling the trigger on the driver. Man…that thing was NICE! About my game: I've been swinging clubs since 1995 and instantly fell in love with the game. Back at Parris Island, I had the privilege of playing 9 holes most days, and my golf game improved dramatically. I truly felt like a golfer. I continue to play as much as possible here in Syracuse. I have a foursome of buddies who I golf with every week. But, as life went on, my game seemed to degrade almost in lockstep with the rest of my aging body (Thanks, Uncle Sam). Nevertheless, I continue to embrace the sport with enthusiasm and determination. My distance and consistency are no more, however I long to get those back. I cannot wait to challenge the Black Ops Irons to see how it can help me and other golfers who struggle with consistency! I am great from 100 yds in...but getting there is a whole different story! Currently rocking a solid 80-95 score range. My misses are mostly straight left pulls and the occasional slice. I have been working on my game a lot and have found better consistency lately. My Titleist T300s from 2021 are finally working (haha). I have gained about 20 yards due to my grinding. I am planning to do the test outdoors on the course, range, home range/net with my Garmin R10, and a Trackman to use for a baseline. Like many of you, I'm a data guy. I can't wait to see where these stack up. Numbers will spill the beans. If I see improvement (with a mix of data and gut feeling), they are a winner. If not (within the time limit), maybe it's more grind or they aren’t my type of irons. I was also fit for Gen6 XP irons, but they performed the exact same as my T300s. The lofts were jacked. The PXG Gen6 6 iron was the same loft as my Titleist 7 iron. The felt great, but the value proposition was not there from a performance perspective. I loved the double chrome look, for sure. When I hit the 0211s (the BO will replace the 0211 line) I did not like the feel. These new irons are supposed to fix that problem with the 0211s. I promise you an honest, thoughtful review. I count on this community for my research, and I'll pay it forward. Cheers! Awesome to see another CNY golfer. My son was an FMF Corpsman in the 2/7 on a scout sniper team at 29 Palms.
