Just picked up a 4I and now using it as a driving iron. Feels and sounds so much better than most of the driving irons out there (Srixon ZX Utility, Titleist U510 and U500, etc). I love my U510 2i but this sounds, feels much better and it’s a bit smaller so show off the deck seem a little easier.

How much is the set? Who cares!!! You just need the 7 iron & wedge and your good to go. Add in your driver and a putter leaving plenty of space in the bag for beers

Do you usually use the steel fiber shafts? And what is the loft on the iron? I would be willing to bet it’s awfully close to a 6 irons loft.

Im curious whats the yardage gap between the 27 degree 7 iron and the 31.5 degree 8 iron...lets say its 60 yards, so my question is how does the 7 iron perform on the green with a less than full swing when you are trying to hit it 30 yards less.
@alexetchesgolf5 жыл бұрын
Gapping would be around 15-20 yards for me. The decent angle is very steep so I would still image it would stop!

@uwrossl5 жыл бұрын
@@alexetchesgolf Certainly not a problem to add the wedges when your 5 or 6 iron matches up with your fairway or hybrid in the gapping. The distances we are seeing from these clubs a person might not even need a fairway or hybrid in the bag. TXG guys were blasting the 4 iron up around 270 yds. Kind of ridiculous. I won't buy em but I'm definitely going to find a Callaway demo day and try em
