EDEL SLS01 IRONS

[@ConsumerBehaviorSite]

The production quality of your videos is fantastic. Congratulations on the video work you do. Goes without saying that the golf content is second to none.

[@redlinejcw]

Love the 360 degree cam shot with the zoom out. So cool.

[@Piscifunalliym]

I like them. I have played single length this season, now swinging upright like Bryson, and I have played my best golf ever... Would never go back to standard length irons!

[@Piscifunalliym]

Bryan Begley My lie angle is 66...wish I could have more but dont want to bend my sterlings more...

[@SL-iz5tx]

do u got the Jumbomax grips as well?

[@Piscifunalliym]

S L yes, the same as Bryson, size xl! 😃 Absolutely great to play with!

[@benswanton2958]

Fascinating to see their Irons. I had an Edel putter fitting today and the craftsmanship and effort that goes into their clubs is pretty special. I'm not mad keen on one-length irons (love Mizuno irons) but if i did try them I would definitely seek out the Edels.

[@christopherwhitehead8946]

This video is edited really well indeed. The story-line is well laid out, with Mark going from course to dry data and back again with a seamless script. Well done Mark. I like it. I don't need to see you put out the greens on these club tests though. Once you're on the green, I'm ok... enough.

[@devonjones]

It would be neat to have 3-7 at a single length, then have 8 - PW stay the traditional length. I could get behind short long irons, just not long short irons.

[@evolution118]

The drone shots are looking delish.

[@ESikora12]

“not sure how fast this foam is...” 🤣 Also, your background music in your course footage is top notch!

[@scedab]

One length clubs seem like a great idea, just wish there was a little more choice.

[@roykullick5273]

The drone footage is awesome Mark!

[@JT-xs4br]

Totally trying single length irons next year!

[@martimtommy]

Superb review mark, keep it up. Lovely straight talking videos, no bullshit.

[@justinmiller5458]

I love the look of them. I would love them. The fact they have a 3 iron in the set is cool. Cobra stops at 4 iron and i think the Sterlings stop at 6 iron then 5 hybrid. The Paederson shafts are amazing as well. I could give them a good home if you dont want them. Pretty please!!! lol.

[@johnhanks4052]

Played the Cobra F7 and F8 and then forged one lengths for the past 4 years, my iron striking and consistency greatly improved. Played Mizuno JPX Forged prior. Guess my iron play was so good it was getting boring, so I went back to variable length and I hate them. Now trying other one length irons to see what I might like. Tried the 1 Irons, didn't care for the shafts. Tried the Gria Golf hybrid irons, loved the way they felt, liked the shaft, but hit them high and lost a lot of distance...but they were stupid easy to hit and very consistent. Just ordered a set of the Giga Golf because they have a 30 day play guarantee and they are cheap...who knows, they might be just fine. Been trying to get a local fitter for the Wishon line to respond, but no one has...even emailed Wishon and no response. Tried the new Radspeed OL at the PGA store, they were awesome and crazy long...carrying a 5 iron 205-210...but over 1k for a set right now since they are new. I like the look of the Edel's, seem like Mark liked them as much as he could like a OL iron...even though they are expensive, going to find a local fitter to at least give them a go. I'm 47 and been playing a high level of soccer all my life, still playing in young man's really good leagues, but leaning heavy towards getting better at golf and doing less damage to my body at this point in golf. In 3 years I've come down from the mid 90's to low 80's very consistent with multiple rounds under 80 this year, so I feel now is the time to attack this game. Love your content Mark.

[@thecigardon]

Hey Mark, love that your picking up clubs that are much more fit-focused and spread across all brands within the industry. I would LOVE to see another video with you and Matt switching clubs 4 holes in(sterling v Cobra) but instead of both being one length I'd rather see the edel v. P790 or iblade. Something to consider. Thanks!

[@litfroooog2823]

I would like to try long irons of the Edel as a split set to what I have now. Like Pw-6 normal lengths then 4-5 single length.

[@calvinmaestro3400]

I have a single length set but carry normal length wedges for soft touches around the green.

[@tom0ocadoo]

This is great. It would be nice to hear your thoughts about the Serling irons on length and these . Great video thanks for sharing

[@fretless05]

Love to see a head to head comparison between these single length irons and the Wishon Sterling irons (which I know you tested). Curious differences in the technologies used in those 2 sets: this one using COG and shaft design for gapping and flight shape which the Sterlings using a single shaft, but with different metals in the heads as well as face design changes through the set. Seeing how both perform side by side on a swing monitor in the studio would a great video!

[@Briochepepites]

Another great vid, I'd love to play that course.

[@mikepavely8033]

Definitely got to get fitted for these. I went for 3/4/5/6 and once the shaft transition was sorted even changing the weighting in the heads really affected descent angle/distance and gapping....probably easier for higher SS players IMO in the long irons. One thing I loved (although thought I would hate tbh) is playing longer "short" irons. Dispersion improved massively and numbers were spot on for distance control...I guess I just swang smoother with the longer club which in turn felt more controllable. Very pricey though no doubt...I guess the jury's out on these still for many people. I like them though.

[@markharding2389]

MP18 for me all day long, still playing my MX20 and don't see any point in changing irons yet, other than I just want new clubs! Not sure my score would be any better but they'd look lovely in the bag!

[@matthewchristiansen8630]

Big fan of Edel. The Torque Balanced putter is the best club in my bag. Wish these irons were available for demo and a fitting here in Charlotte, NC. I've considering going to one-length irons, but can't find these or the Cobra forged versions anywhere to demo on course.

[@MrBucci20]

I love my single length irons in 6months I've gone from a 26 handicap shanking balls all over the place to a consistent ball striker now playing off of 18. I just need to learn how to stop three putting now

[@davidrichard4300]

I tried the cobra one length and found that gapping was an issue for me. The 4-6 were 5-6 yards gapped when my irons (when I was playing di9s) were 7-9 yards. Not a huge difference but when I got to the 9-pw and they were 10-12 yards gapped and my Wilson's were still 7-9. Just did not feel on course that they could be consistent. I now play the callaway big bertha irons, they are almost like hybrids through out. Didn't think I would like them at first but love the feel and the consistency

[@Struieboy]

Nice to see a review of smaller manufacturers clubs. Any chance of doing a review on Mira, Vega , Wishon etc

[@jasonpurk794]

And how about Mark hitting some Maltby TE Forged Irons :)

[@bhungley5617]

Hi Mark ... did you like the Paderson shafts ??? best shaft for me on the market today !!!

[@chalkstreamfisher5590]

ref the 3 iron toe shot, do you find you hit them out of the centre as consistently as your #7. And is this more often out of the centre than your longer hybrids? More to the point, would a mid handicapper hit them as consistently as their #7...

[@mollermads]

Could you have single shaft from 7 iron to 3 iron, but "normal" or standard length from 8 iron to lob wedge?

[@thombendtsen399]

Mads Moller Edel will put together any configuration you want.

[@shoots4par]

Mads Moller - sure you can. Your clubs, your choice!

[@SOLDOZER]

That would cause serious gapping issues and ruin the whole point of one length sets.

[@adamblack8337]

I'm a mizuno mp fan, but for some reason I think these look brilliant! Great review !

[@rhopag]

If you throw in a hybrid, would you chop it down and adjust the lie to fit the irons?

[@mollermads]

Definitely the mizuno iron. I don't like the thick top line and the off set of the Edel irons. I could be interested in single length for the long irons, but then keep standard length on the short irons. For ideally 6, 5, 4 and 3 irons single length and standard for 7 - lob wedge? I don't know if that would work or just confuse even more?

[@jamesjahmoolahutmorrison4104]

I gamed the Cobra F7 Forged 1length. Just couldn't get used to the shorter irons, found them too long and lost a bit of feel with them. Pity I liked the look of them. Good Vlog bruh, keep em coming😎

[@EDTHEWATERGUY]

Same here. I still play single length in my 5,6,and 7 iron and standard for the rest. The Cobra forged one lengths are perfect for blending a standard set with a single length set.

[@mcfly2727]

I hear that music in my sleep now! Lol Mark - can you do a feature on unraveling/testing shafts...so much choice...so much tech jargon...but so much to gain..length and type...help us understand!!!

[@cameronnott9069]

I’ve had all sorts of single length irons. Currently have the cobra king forged that Bryson games. They are really nice to hit feel wise, but no question these Edel single lengths are special. The craftsmanship and precision that goes into Edel is what makes them so much more expensive then other single length. The same as Mizuno vs Miura. No comparison in price or quality/feel. Once you hit a Miura hand forged iron, Mizuno’s don’t even exist. And I love Mizuno so not saying anything bad about them of course. Not many people want to pay 3000 US for 7 irons though but if you do, Edel is king of single length and Miura would be king of forged blades.

[@rayford7319]

Just found out that the edel irons I bought were actually yours Mark. They obviously didn’t get a lot of use from you they were in superb condition

[@brendanhobbart]

For some reason I'm reluctant to try one-length, although logically they make a lot of sense to me. The fact that I just picked up a new set of JPX-900 tours is probably swaying me :-). Still, part of me thinks this approach could become the default in years to come. One question about the feel - since they have varying face thicknesses to assist with gapping, does the impact feel change from club to club?

[@DavidSwanson6576]

Have you used your Edel putter on a course vlog Mark?

[@imprezawrc3243]

I'd really consider the Edel irons as i've been considering a one length set for a while, one thing that puts me off in a big way though is the top line, it looks too thick.

[@David-vb1bg]

Love the topline comparison! Best numbers wouldn't beat a proper topline-love. Still playing mp 30s for ages just love the looks from the top and there are just a few mizunos that lookwise would have the potential to make me cheat on them. Thx for the vids 💪🏼

[@TheUofAfan]

David M so you would game irons that you played worse because they look better?

[@diggsy1602]

I think the only query or issue I'd have is you have to go back to longer shafts if you have your hybrids and 3 woods etc. So it would be a marked difference and you'd need to be comfortable with that change up. But if you are - I reckon they're a bloody good concept. I love swinging my 7 iron as most do I'm sure.

[@markpogson3799]

diggsy1602 . At the moment your brain is adjusting your swing for 13 different shaft lengths. I don't think its going to have any trouble if you give it only 3 or 4 lengths. What do ya reckon? :)

[@tuckleberryfinn5271]

Quote of the day, "Not sure how fast this foam is?". Brilliant!

[@paulfanning6549]

Looks like the designers at Edel are macgregor mt tourney iron fans-like it a lot!

[@jcdelacruz3668]

Beautiful clubs. I would actually try to use these. Only if it wasn't so expensive.

[@TheUofAfan]

I have waited on this review forever

[@stevenmoss82]

I'd love to try one length irons the concept makes total sense to me but I could never justify the cost of changing to a one length set of clubs without playing them on the course. I'm sure in time some will become available to get my hands on cheap on eBay or something but till then I'll hold off and stick with the variable length irons of old.

[@reinhardkotze8053]

"I dont know how fast this foam is?" Cheeky cheeky! !!! Hahaha. Love it

[@444emann]

Have manufacturers tried one length from 7 iron to 3 iron (where there is a clear advantage) and the normal iron lengths for the others (where it is more difficult to see any advantage)?

[@nadinegauthier220]

Have you try the hybrid single length 4,5

[@tomnetzel5962]

I love the look of this set, but at almost 2k for a set I could not justify them over cobra or sterling.

[@MBrAce82]

Also bruh... Your polo shirts. WHERE DO YOU GET THEM FROM? They're superb 😜

[@seanmccabe3523]

Would be interesting to see if anyone would consider putting a combination of these and another brand together (Maybe 7-Wedge with MIzuno or TM and the longer irons with the 1 length's for ease of use - would be an interesting experiment if the gapping was correct.

[@seantongs3202]

Tried Cobra one length, the five iron was interesting but the nine screwed with my head by being so far away but I hit it okay, they went my distances, didn't go with them.

[@michaelvanschaffel2283]

I have standard wedge to 7 iron.then 6-2 iron is 7 iron size .I put 4 degrees in between the long irons insead of 3 and use a higher launch shaft as u go down.flighted shafts can work soft stepped.dont add weight to head just use a lighter shaft.

[@markkirk3049]

If given the opportunity to play one length, I would try them out, I still use my 3 iron, although hybrids might be the next step, I could see my daughter taking up the one length idea

[@Richie156]

Im a big believer there is more room for improvement in me then the clubs . Maybe if all the clubs are one lengh it could help with some consistency

[@MMcG25]

How would you rate them vs the Wishon Sterling Single Lengths?

[@davidchipman7612]

Would love a set of these but not cheap Mark

[@alanmartins6349]

Mark which is better the Edel's or the Cobra F8's?

[@stevedickson3037]

Of the clubs you showed here, Mizuno MP18 Great video, again. Thank you.

[@SteveGaish]

I could definitely game the Edel irons, not the best looking and I don't like the top line. My next set will be single length irons but I'm leaning more towards the Cobra.

[@stephenthomas6619]

That too line is too thick for my liking. Interesting concept for the "long" irons but not sure how I would feel dropping inside 120/130 yards with the longer shafts on the PW and SW. Personally I love the look of the iBlade, but I do play with Pings so it might just look familiar.

[@scottwarner7728]

Hi Bra, the one length iron is not a concept that grabs me. The thicker top line is a definite turn off, those clubs won't end up in my bag.

[@blue_mountains28]

got to try 1 length be it cobra / edel

[@albertofernandez-sanguino3373]

What about going the extra mile!!! What about single length fairway woods and drivers? Does it make sense? I wonder..........

[@peterklein6287]

Alberto Fernandez-Sanguino check out the 1 iron.com site, all your questions will be answered

[@sg5733]

Look nice these spanners. 👏🏻👍🏻

[@philipsmith6152]

One length clubs are better, not cause of ball position but because the ball is the same distance from you with every club..luv em

[@MBrAce82]

IMHO... Faster swinging players struggle with gapping. My normal 4 iron srixon z745 is 200m carry. 3900-4500 spin subject to strike. Spin with one length was 6k causing ballooning and big loss in distance. Same with some of my scratch to plus 4 friends. I'd be curious to see Bryson's exact specs re loft and lead tape

[@MrPolus24]

I hear ya. I regularly play with a guy off +6 and he couldn't use single length irons either.

[@wastwhg]

would you still get custom fit for single length irons?

[@OpaKnows]

MP-18's all day.

[@eelcosnijders1694]

The only way to know about one length irons is to try them yourself....I ran into a Cobra demo recently and got to try them; the longer irons were so much easier to hit and still delivered the distance. The short irons were easier too; a full swing with a 60 degree wedge (at 7 iron length), consistency produced 80 yards distance.... it is a bit strange to to make such a big' swing; but these one length clubs work....I will consider them in the future for sure. Carly Booth was present at the demo and she was political in her answer; but hesitant to game them. I guess the masses will follow, when more top pro's start playing them and more brands put one length option in their line up.

[@garysmith70]

The Edel`s look bloody awesome but the price is Massive. I would love to try them. There is the Mizuno MP18 who would turn their nose up at those probably the finest clubs on the market at this present time. They are at a more sensible price,

[@xu10j4rs1]

Iblade looks the nicest at address. I'm interested in trying one length, which do you prefer these or the Cobra's?

[@TheUofAfan]

xu10j4rs1 No question Edel technology and quality is ten times better than Cobra. If your really gonna go for it Edel is the only company doing it right but you have to find a fitter so they can get your specs right. And it's not just typical specs either they change shaft weights and head weights for each club

[@SOLDOZER]

Also you can get David Edel on the phone if you call them. Try getting the CEO of Cobra on the Phone.

[@fozardderek]

I love my one lengh cobra irons

[@AlexCasebeer25]

I would love to try one length. Don't really have the means to mess around with 1000 bucks I might not even like though

[@jasonpurk794]

They look like Macgregor Tourney Irons from the Back.

[@JimboSRP]

Maybe showing my inner geek - but in the music where the voice says "Listen!" - that's Link's fairy, Navi, in Ocarina of Time. lol! BTW, nice video Mark...

[@eddybrand4633]

Did they shut the course for you?

[@jamesbrown6372]

Will Edel struggle to get the consumer to pick these up off the shelf?

[@dhtmo]

MP18 please. The toe on the Edel is strange looking.

[@cardene31]

"Not sure how fast this foam is" lmao dead

[@Mr621brown]

I need these in my life⛳👍😀

[@dannydillon6360]

Bad ass irons

[@daveparker2090]

Been waiting for a review of these (honest review that is 👍👍👍). Edel put a lot of work into those shafts as they claimed, that in the longer irons it is so difficult to get the launch up that they couldn't get it to work in steel. Those shafts are meant to have different numbers of layers in various places in order to get the launch up. Was there a big difference in peak height between the 4 and 3 iron ???

[@444emann]

7 iron to 3 iron same length is a good idea - makes it easier. 7 iron to PW is a bad idea- makes it more difficult.

[@legend9018]

Eamon Mann agreed, I think the future of single length may be a split set where 4-7 are all the same length and 8-LW are conventional lengths.

[@perlangefors5304]

I would say that it is the opposite that is more likely the future. You need a high swing speed to hit the low loftet irons.

[@legend9018]

Per Langefors possibly however as shaft technology improves I think that a shaft with the proper balance/kickpoint and tip section could provide a "truer" launch in those long irons. It would really be a very custom fit set with a specific shaft in the 3 iron, 4 iron etc and on down while maintaining single length.

[@danboustead2438]

Per Langefors In the case of these irons the high swing speed is simply not true. I got fitted for a set last week and I am not a massively fast swinger etc and I found the 3 and 4 irons ridiculously easy to hit. I got decent launch angles however it really does need to be paired with the right shaft for your swing speed etc. Some I tried wouldn’t go more than 15ft off the ground. If anyone bought these clubs without being fitted I’d imagine they’d hate them. I would also say that whilst they felt weird the PW and SW were really very easy to hit. I won’t go it’s them as I like my wedges so I’m going down the 3-7 (Edal) and 8 downwards my Callaways.

[@JJ-lm4pg]

I have the edels sls from 4-SW, every club especially the wedges are easy to control.

[@richiehunt5097]

It's not exactly single length. I mean, they can be if you want them to be. But they can also make half your irons one length and the other half another length. Or you can have 1/3rd of the clubs one length, 1/3rd a different length and another 1/3rd a different length.

[@DanB-]

I would love to try the one length out just out of curiosity, I cant really see them as anything but a gimmick though otherwise more pros would have changed, they are hardly working very well for Bryson..... Long irons have already been replaced with a easier to hit option in hybrids which are much more versatile than irons as a bonus.

[@Tartan]

Hardly working well for Bryson Dechambeau? What, you mean having a very successful amateur career with them, turning pro and picking up 2 professional wins?

[@DanB-]

Yep, Without his win this year the guys done nothing and neither have these irons. If a club comes out that looks like its making the game easier then the pros are going to be all over it, just look at the tour spider :D

[@markpogson3799]

Dan B . You are certainly hard to please. The guy won two of the top amateur events and a PGA tour event. Obviously you have made up your mind and any facts that contradict your opinion are ignored.

[@DanB-]

Your opinion is not a fact, neither is mine, missing the cut in over half his entered tournaments however is fact, winning one event on tour is a fact to. I would love to be in his position he has achieved a lot in his life, but as a pro golfer the majority of his time has been spent missing cuts(again fact not opinion) :) Its all subjective but the point im making which you all seem to have missed and focused on a lad made famous for using weird clubs and a hat if these clubs provided any improvement over standard sets more pros would be playing them, I dont know how anyone can argue/debate that??

[@Tartan]

You made a silly and ignorant comment. The lad has reached the top 0.1% of people in his chosen field, so obviously his choice of clubs has worked rather well for him, even if he never wins another tournament. He has achieved more than millions of other aspirants.

[@darrell3118]

I went with the Sterling Single length earlier this season and liked them but the short irons (8, 9 , PW , SW ) kept going left and killed my scores , sold them and went back to a Mizuno MP-64 blades and scores dropped ! I love this single length iron concept but it wasn't for me ! These EDELS are very Expensive !! $2000 American for 8 clubs !!

[@MrMalditor]

At nearly $2000 for a set of irons I'm not sure I'd be interested in these. It's possible that one length irons would give me some more consistency in my iron game, but given most of my trouble comes from Driver and wedges I doubt it'd really be worth it.

[@clemfisher5727]

Bit puzzled by this review. Mark says he would consider gaming them, but has previously ruled out clubs when the spin has dropped off, not as badly as it did with the 6 iron here.

[@MarkCrossfield]

+clem fisher the 6 iron did spintoo low. But one length is always interesting

[@gavin6535]

Cracking review brah

[@Carerra57]

I absolutely love the P790s. I hit them recently at my local golf shot on gc2 and was hitting the ball longer and higher than my gamers. I just wish I had the cash to buy a set and replace my old burner irons.

[@3DGvisuals]

It could be the mic's, but they sound very "clicky"

[@Rbeardsley10]

Looking at 1 length now, leaning toward wishon or pin hawk, edel really pricey and cobra seems over priced

[@Chewyness]

If this was recorded after his trip with Lockey then he's back to using his old putter 😂

[@Andy-cq9yy]

Mark are u 47 years old?

[@GabrielGuess]

Why not just order shafts for your old set, to a 6 iron?

[@markpogson3799]

Gabriel Guess . All your swing weights would be horrible. The 3 to 6 irons would feel way too light and the 8 to PW would feel too heavy. Real single length clubs have heads that are the same weight as each other.

[@justinbordwell4654]

Forget single length. Players would be surprised as to what you can accomplish using all of your grip.

[@j0nnywright90]

Do you think one length will effect you once you get to Driver and 3 Wood? After using one length clubs for a while it must seem like you are setting up miles away when using a Driver!!

[@EDTHEWATERGUY]

No it doesn't. 3 different length clubs is still easier than 14.

[@shoots4par]

John Wright try getting your driver fitted with a 3 wood shaft, if you swing well enough its the answer!

[@markpogson3799]

I have used one length irons for several years (pre Bryson) and there is no issue swinging my longer fwy woods and driver

[@johnnypenso9574]

I found a 14 degree driver on the discount rack at SportChek a couple of weeks ago and put a 3 wood length shaft on it and I've been carrying it in place of my 3 wood. I don't hit the 3 wood off the grass most of the time but do hit it off the tee 3 or 4 times a round on many courses. It works really well. Only a couple of inches shorter than my X2 Hot driver but it's much easier to hit and keep in the fairway, while being about about 20 yards shorter. Comes in real handy on the shorter par 4's, tight fairways or when you have a stiff following wind and are going to gain 20-30 off the tee anyway. I'm going to pick up a used 10.5 and shorten up the shaft and see how that works out as well.

[@MrOsnolaKinnard]

One thing I have noticed...the more I swing my Edel SLS -01irons...the more consistent my swings are with OTHER clubs in the bag.

[@highlanderthegreat]

BOBBY JONES won the GRAND SLAM of golf in the same year with same length hickory shaft clubs... no one else
