Are they bringing out a 10k version for this model ?

Great explanation as usual, do you anticipate having to make any adjustments with the heads as ping are selling them as standard at 46 inches this year which I think is crazy for the average golfer and I know PG builds to 45 inches for Drivers

Thanks guys.

I wish Ping hadn't built draw bias into their more lofted hybrids. There are a lot of older golfers who can't sustain launch and spin in order to game anything longer than a modern 6 or 7 iron. Most go to hybrids in the middle of the bag. Many of them are formerly good players with decent deliveries and don't need a club that wants to go left. Just give us a perfectly neutral head.

I've always liked Cleveland fairways; still have a Launcher driver and Launcher 5w in my cupboard and will occasionally take the FW onto the course. Will be interesting to see how popular these new clubs become. Currently use Miz wedges but previously had a set of Cleveland wedges which I also liked a lot.

Great show this week! Is it true that the PGA show is not returning to Orlando next year?

My guess is irons will sell and continue to gain market share. Woods and hybrids will gather dust. They market their irons well, they perform great and at a slightly decreased price compared to the big boys. They seem like Japanese titleist, without the wood following.

Stew, the TGL green can be changed via 600 actuators that enable the undulations / slopes to be completely changed to suit each hole... amazing tech !

I love my RTX wedges so am keen to give these new ones a try.

The laser face milling is really interesting. Would be good to see a test against a driver without it in wet conditions

Simon, is it your understanding that you can purchase two equal weights for the standard head so that you can have neither a draw bias nor a fade bias? Is the head neutral by itself, or does the head have internal weighting that gives it a draw bias?

That was quite fun! I played with a guy once who had a 72° wedge, and he used it for every single shot around the greens. And there were a lot of said shots, because he only hit a few greens in 18 holes. "This is my baby!" he said. Mostly he used his baby to take enormous manhole cover divots and chunk the ball a few feet in front of him. And he didn't fix them and made a mess of a very nice golf course. The combination of idiocy and entitlement was truly impressive! I did try to hit a flop shot with it - the ball popped up about ten feet in the air and came back down to rest exactly where it had been at address.

Good run down Simon. I hit these a few months ago in Aus, great feeling irons, even the 4’s and all paired well with the DG mids for me at least. Ended up with the Blueprint S. would love to see a vid of your thoughts on them v say the Zxi7 T100 243 or any other comparable irons you think fit the bill. Great channel!

Is this an option for fitting?

Club speed is irrelevant on off-center hits. Hence, the forgiveness. It’s about the efficiency/smash factor, std deviation for distance and dispersion. Spin can also be addressed by choice of ball and choice of shaft.

Thinking golfers clubs, Srixon 👌🏿 BTW interesting watch? Looks vintage on a new nylon strap. Classy, what is it?

Just out of curiosity: what skills/education a club builder needs?

Can’t wait to try these next week!!

Great review of Srixon's new products. Having a fitting in a few months and will definitely try these new clubs. Cheers.

I'd have Srixon irons in a heartbeat if I could get on with the V sole...I hit them OK on a mat, get me outside and all hell breaks loose😂. Probably should be the other way round.... Fast becoming a must watch channel...👍

Great rundown of the range. They've had some of the best looking clubs. I sure wish I got along better with the v sole of the irons.. I have a hard time for whatever reason out in the course. I love a preworn leading edge, but the v sole just doesn't work for me. I've given up. Interestingly xxio irons have a much milder version that works better. I also notice their superstar on tour Hideki uses a unique set of their irons without the v sole! Would love such an option for the rest of us but the v sole must work well for more people than not.

Just when you've done one great video, another one comes along on "non-main" brands. (traditionally speaking) Range looks great. Wonder if a mini-driver (2 wood) is on the cards too.

Nice to see a brand that perhaps doesn't get the major attention of the others like Mizuno, Taylor Made and Titleist, on the channel. The range looks good and I'm pretty keen to see how you get on with the high toe, full faced wedges in review.

very interesting Simon. The issue for me is that most soft flex shafts are also lighter. I play an M2 9 wood that is designated a "ladies" club. The flex is very soft but the bigger issue is that it has a 45g shaft as opposed to my other fairways which have 65g shafts. I'll get it changed at some point!

Is the tp5 made for slower swing players?

Interesting swing. The way you align the club to the ball is awkward. Might want to get that looked at.

Great video, but why did you not show lie, angle bent flatter like you did, showing it bent upright. To get it center, would you not need to go flatter on the lie angle with the mark being towards toe ?

So, how do we practice in the winter? Dont have access to a grass range (not that they would be open) ranges using range balls are pointless so i guess its a similator with real balls at £20 an hour. I got "fitted" at an AG store with range balls and they said i needed a low spin driver as i was in tbe 4000 range for spin. When i got properly fitted i actually needed a lower spin driver as my tendency is to hit low left hooks with sub 1000 spin.

Driver, 5w, 7w, 9w 5-pw, 50, 54 and 58 for me. I like the idea of hybrids but they just go low and left for me. Find lodted fairways much easier to use. I think i need tbe extra spin that a fairway gives . I also hit a low ball so the hybrid is just not the one

Love Monty when he says "I did ok".

So many models in most of the main brands now, is that a good thing?

Interesting regarding shaft length, particularly 3 wood with longer shaft. Have you done anything on shorter driver and 3 wood shafts?

Talking of extremes Simon, I'm currently playing Project X LZ 6.5 125g shafts 2 inches over standard with a swing weight of E8. I'm having a club built up to the same length but with a Nippon Modus 105 X swing weighted to C9 so I can add weight to the head in order to find the optimal impact conditions and hopefully, more ball speed.

The black finish looks the business😘😘 PS PXG and Miura has been doing in line model in black for years. Nice review 👍👍

Very enlightening, Simon. You just make it so easy to understand.

Really enjoy these kind of fun videos! Well done!

Glad I am off to La Cala - no rain 😂

It would be interesting seeing the difference between using a new ball and one that has become scuffed or been used for several rounds. The new ball will (presumably) perform better but is there really much of a difference for the average amateur golfer? What part of the game is likely to show the largest difference?

Dry club face, wet ball, would have been a better test imo, more like real life.

Enjoyed the video. It would seem that the difference in a new wedge is only marginal spin retention in wet weather ? I wonder why the pro's change them so frequently ? To promote wedge sales ?

Just asking about the wet wedge test. You said the wedge you was using was the best wedge for the wet. Which manufacturer was this?

Very informational! So genuine question: what is the highest wedge loft for maximum spin?

Excellent content in this video. Could you provide any additional opinion/comparison for this CB Synystr shaft versus the CB Nemesys shaft? Thank you. JB

Planning to buy a set of S 3’s and 925’s. I agree with the performance of the T24 v or t? Works well But a little too high and it could be a bit more forgiving.

Love it ...great information.

Very good video, Simon. Cheers.

That was fun. Great job!!!!

Great info, and good fun 🤩

So, for hybrid sets, like Eleven, that have a completely different type of groove in their high lofted clubs, do they have a serious problem in wet conditions?

Was just fitted for this shaft and had similar impressions. My swing speed is slower than you guys (around 100), but I couldn't get over how stable this felt for the weight. I actually ended up in the 55 Regular shaft and the numbers were perfect. Went with the same shaft in 3 wood as well.
