I've just picked up my P770's today. Always go for a fitting and never go solely on KZbin reviews. I hit the CW apex Ai200 irons furthest and had a faster club head speed but a wide dispersion. The Ping i530's were ok, not the furthest and not the best grouping. I tried the P790's but didn't get on with them, did ok with P7CB's but the P770's had the best dispersion by far and a consistent distance. Never buy blind and never go in with your heart and mind set, try everything and really try lots of shafts because I found that made the most difference.
@johnpetolillo288Күн бұрын
Couldn’t agree more with that statement. It’s all what works with your swing. I went for my first ever fitting and got fit into the P790s. Hit them great and very consistent with dispersion. Thought going in I was getting fit into the Pro 245 but my swing didn’t get along with them for some reason. Hit a bunch of different irons but the P790s were the clear winner for me. Got fit into a heavier shaft as well which I was kind of shocked with

Entertaining content as always, but yet again a complete absence of Srixon products. The ZX series irons have consistently won praise, accolades and positive feedback from around the golfing community. They've won awards and have consistently been reviewed as some of the best irons on the market for mid handicappers (ZX5) and lower handicap golfers (ZX7). Having followed Rick and his channels and podcast for years, Srixon is never mentioned to the point where they're conspicuous by their absence. I can only assume that there's some kind of embargo or cease and desist which leads to Srixon never being mentioned or tested alongside other leading (or DTC) brands, including Driver, FW, irons, wedges and balls. Although I seem to remember Rick testing the Z Star years ago, but that's about it. As a fan of the channel, a listener to the podcast series since day one and a huge fan of golf I'd love Rick or Guy to at least comment on why. I'm fairly sure I'm not the only one thinking this.

@bobpegram80422 күн бұрын
Because all of the irons hit hit the ball within a 5 yard variance, it seems distance should rated way lower than accuracy. Accuracy problems will cost way more shots than slight distance differences, especially since the distance differences don't matter as much once the golfer knows what distance each club hits. To put it in a more extreme way, a shorter hitting golfer who is very accurate will usually beat a longer hitter who has accuracy problems, assuming equal ball striking skill levels. Looks are somewhat personal so those should be weighted less as well. I agree on the weighting of price and feel. Summary: Accuracy should be weighted double. Price and feel as is. Price varies by a golfer's economic status so each golfer will weight that differently. Distance and looks weighted half. If the distance differences were more extreme, then I would say weighted full. Takomo's should have been included as others have said. I would buy the 201s if I were in the market for irons. Mine are old - 2011 (old lofts like blades). They are the head model Furyk used to shoot 58 (Callaway RAZR X Forged). I didn't know that when I bought them used from Callaway pre-owned.

It's good to see reviews on clubs but it's not the be all and end of the search for new clubs. I recently had a full iron fitting and tried the i530's the Callaway and p790's, also zx5 and t200. Initially the T200 and i530 offered the best performance but once we started interchanging shafts it changed completely. The p790's stood out by far, the best in launch, disbursement and feel. So while these reviews are good they are no guarantee that the club that comes 1st or 2nd will be the right club for you. Go get properly fitted to avoid massive disappointment. And just before I get any negatives, I am an avid Rick supporter, Pete and James too!
@jameslaughter51832 күн бұрын
I think you missed the boat on two factors. First and Foremost, the number one factor for all golfers is accuracy yet all factors were equally weighted. So Rick answer the question, which would you rather do, hit the green or put the ball into the gorse but look good doing it and save a tenner per club? The Second Factor was you left our Srixon and you left out Takomo but included Kirkland. The weakness of Kirkland is you can't get the lie adjusted or the shaft shortened or the shaft upgraded but Takomo can be had with many upgrades and adjustments. For 2025 the competition include all brands, maybe 2 first rounds: first of off brands then big brands then a final.

I expected the 115gram shaft to be away too heavy but no, fine, I went reg flex too, and see no issue opting for a soft feel and a higher launch, I would almost compress my shots too much.

This test is all pretty subjective but if you take away the "looks" category the rankings would be Ping (19), Callaway (19), Mizuno (17), Kirkland (16), TM (13), Cobra (13).

Show dynamic loft with the static loft. Dynamic Loft is what matters. Thank you

Additionally, the Mizuno MP945 is the go-to "mid-handicap" forged iron set by Mizuno. Rick's not comparing apples to apples. Never even reviewed ANY of the Mizuno MP series of irons, which are obviously some of the most premium irons on the market.

Maybe finding some mid to high handcap golfers (e.g., find some random guys at a range) to test these clubs would give more reliable results.

The Callaway image used for presentation isn’t the AI300 as it doesn’t have the print on the toe end and they have a wider hea

Would love to see you get a mid handicap golfer in to help you when testing clubs for a mid handicapper?

Would be awesome if you could do a cheaper iron review but guess it would be hard to do Caley Kirkland Takomo Lynx Orka Ect...

The biggest question people ask when ranking clubs is not between the big brands but between expensive vs affordable clubs. So, hurray for including the Kirkland Signature clubs. But where are the Takomo and Stix clubs I've seen you reviewed? And, I'd love to see other DTC brands. I was confused at the inclusion of the Mizuno Hot Metal Pro when I just watched your review of the Mizuno HL series and you said they were the club Mizuno should go with? Finally, you often praise Wilson irons but they were noticeably absent also.

Titleist T200 not included 🤔 Also Mizuno 245 not a better club to be used from them for the comparison? Takomo again a cheaper brand and arguably a better feeling club than Kirkland.

Where are the Titleist T150/T200!! I would love to see them compared to these.

You know better than to speak about Titleist on a Rick Shiels video 😂

No Srixon love on your channels Rick. Using ZX5 mkII, really nice clubs. Srixon clubs dont seem to get reviewed allot by UK channels

You should have included the Takoma irons in this testing.

TM marketing doing its job pre-testing. Wish i could catch the KSigs in stock.

Srixon zx5 or wilson dynapower forged need to be on this list.

What about the Wilson CBs
@RaidersGolf19Күн бұрын
I hear they are amazing! Apparently forged CB clubs MORE forgiving than game improvement clubs??? Crazy awesome if true!

Hey Rick, I might have missed this in the video but what shafts did you test with? Were they the same shafts or different? Because as everyone knows that can make a huge difference in both distance and dispersion.

what exactly do you consider the range for a handicap to be considered a mid handicap?
