    Have to correct this listing. Had to ditch the 223s unfortunately. Just did not get on with them at all and lost about 15 yards distance. Need to work on my game a lot so it's back to the jpx900 forged for the season and will wait for mizunos next jpx offerings for 2023.....



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,457 ✭✭✭AyeGer


    The 223’s look good.

    Has anyone tried the new Ping i525 irons yet.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭KevH1984


    My current bag for 2022 is as follows


    Driver - Callaway Mavrik Sub Zero 10.5 deg 60g Rogue stiff shaft

    3w - Callaway Xr 15 deg Hzrdus stiff shaft

    3H - Ping G410 19 deg Alta stiff shaft

    These are my second set of Wilsons, got these new last year and I have to say they are top class. Look stunning, great feel from them and very consistent with enough forgiveness for me although you do know when you don't catch one quite right. They come in traditional lofts too which I love and which suits my game perfectly - I'm happy hitting my 7 iron 160-165 ish. They're great value compared to the other names in the market and I'd highly recommend anyone to take the plunge on them or at least try them out during a fitting.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,324 ✭✭✭big_drive


    I've an older set of Cleveland irons I've had since 2009. Looking to change this year. A lot of Wilson irons look great especially for price. Those V6 look a nice option if I could find a set in good second hand condition with a lightweight shaft. The standard shaft seems heavy from what I've read



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭KevH1984


    I seen a set actually on Adverts this morning for €350 or thereabouts. I've only played those models but I've heard good reports about the other Forged sets, the D7's are very popular, they're more of a game improvement iron so just depends on your ability and what you're looking for from a set.


    The V6 come with Dynamic Gold AMT shafts as standard. Thing about those shafts is they aren't all the same weight. They are lighter in the long irons specifically to help get the ball in the air and increase around 3g for each club. I don't find those shafts particularly heavy personally but you'd need to see for yourself I guess.


    I don't think you can go too far wrong with any of the Wilson irons, they all get very good reviews but Wilson aren't as sexy these days as they once were. If they're good enough for the likes of Harrington and Woodland to win majors then they're certainly good enough for any club golfer.

    Ya I was reading a bit on the d7 forged too, the extra distance would probably benefit me too

    Plus if I'm getting some new wedges the Staff model look good , again price would be hard to beat

    My bag for 2022, may upgrade the hybrid but it does the job despite the age. I'm a 9hcp.

    Driver: Cobra Speedzone 10.5deg. Heavier weight at the front to kill spin. Hzdrus Smoke Black 60g 6.0 shaft. 45.5' Length.

    3W: Cobra Speedzone 15.5deg. Hzdrus Smoke yellow 70g 6.0.

    5W: Cobra Speedzone Tour 18.5deg. Hzdrus Smoke yellow 70g 6.0.

    4H: Cobra AMP cell 21deg. Stock Cobra shaft 60g stiff flex.

    5-UW: Ping G425. Standard length. Red Dot. AWT 2.0 stiff shaft. New for this year replacing my ancient G5s that I loved. Tried all the expensive aftermarket shafts but liked the stock AWT the best for feel and gave me best numbers during fitting.

    Wedges: Mizuno T7. Blue Ion finish. 54 & 58 deg. DG wedge flex shafts. Seeing a bit of wear on these now. Will keep this for this year, 4th year in play, and will upgrade next year. Love these clubs, great feel. Blue finish I like but doesn't suit everyone's eye.

    Putter: Odyssey Stroke Lab Tuttle 34". This will remain in the bag for a long time. Like to stick to a putter once I find one I like. Have this 2 years.

    Lamkin crossline grips on the woods and tour velvet cord on the rest bar wedges which have multicompound. Like a bit of cord in the grip so when the wood grips need renewing they'll get tour velvet cord too.

    Hybrid: Callaway 21° Apex Utility Wood - Project X Hzrdus Smoke Black RDX 80g

    Irons: Mizuno JPX-921 Pro 4 - PW Project X 5.5 shafts

    Wedges: 50° & 54° Taylormade MG 3 Black Steel, 58° Cleveland RTX4

    Putter: Odyssey Stokelab 7s 33"

    TP5 x ball.

    Great setup SEORG, I was looking at those Apex Utility woods recently. Mizunos look good too. The poor wallet must be a bit lighter after all that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,725 ✭✭✭spacecoyote


    Is that the new callaway driver? Have been talking to a couple of people saying it's an absolute beast off the tee



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 828 ✭✭✭SEORG


    Yeah, it’s the new one. Very happy with it.

    Updated the driver and woods.

    Luckily enough I don't update the bag that often so the savings were ringfenced for a while. But golf clubs aren't getting any cheaper that's for sure.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,460 ✭✭✭Ivefoundgod


    Thats interesting that others got on with the Rogue. I hit the Rogue ST at my fitting and didn't get on with it at all, was massively inconsistent with my distances compared to the Cobra LTDx LS, Stealth+ and my own SIM and just didn't like it, didn't fit my eye or something.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 828 ✭✭✭SEORG


    This shows the advantage of getting a fitting.

    I tested all the Titleist, Taylormade, Ping, and Cobra drivers in different sessions.

    The Rogue came out on top when taking into account dispersion, spin, and distance deviation. I was also able to work the flight better with the Callaway.

    1st - Callaway Rouge ST LS

    2nd - Titleist TSi3

    3rd - Ping G425 Max

    The Titleist TSi2 was the longest for me but too inconsistant. Which I found very surprising.

    Back after a 8 year hiatus, kids came on the scene, back injuries, the lot!. Was happy with my bag when I stopped, but coming back now and playing a fair bit starting to notice some issues. So early doors changed putter and added a new 5 wood at the top of my bag.

    Driver - Titleist 910D 9.5 degree. - Project X Stiff

    5 Wood - Cobra LTDx (playing 18 degree) - Hazardous Smoke stiff

    4Hybrid- Titleist 910H (playing 21 degree) - Project X Stiff

    Irons 5-PW - Taylor Made Burner 2.0 - Regular flex

    Cleveland RTX wedges(2012) 56degree and 52 degree - Stiff flex (Spotting now I'm back these are a big problem in my bag)

    Putter - Cobra Vintage Nova (Was using a Scotty for 15 years and saw everyone with these mallet styles and thought I'd give it a try. Feels like cheating !)


    Handicap still all over the place while I settle into the new system, but currently at 5.4
