  1. 20 yds variance in 7 and 8 iron is ridiculous. How is that possible? Any thoughts Nobs?

    One of the easiest heads I've ever hit. Kind of like the Ryoma. Point and shoot.
  3. Nice! QF’s are beautiful. Love the sound.
  4. I like it too and I’ve had it on several Alfas (33, 164, 166). Wish I had an -86 GTV6. Better than the Buchi sheep…
  5. Here is the official website: https://www.prgr-golf.com/en/ Here is info about the clubs from PRGR’s club archive. Made in 2001. https://www.prgr-golf.com/archive_clubs/I-55-speed-iron-905-905-power-iron.html

    SOLD

    A virtual robbery!
  7. Hi, This is not the R7 TP Forged that we typically talk about on here. Sorry to say that it is definitely not a tour issue set you have found as no pro would play them. That R7 Ti is to my understanding a cast game improvement iron for mid-/high handicappers with a titanium insert. Completely different club. Anyway, hope you do get along with them.
  8. If they could only do away with the graphics on the crown. Mental blocker for me. Maybe I’m the one who has to go to the shrink and get over it?
  9. It's only been 3 years since this thread was updated so I think it is about time. I just made an upgrade and thus far it is working out nicely. BMW iX 50. Stupid fast for being a 2700kg (5900lbs) SUV, but runs oh so nice on the air suspension. The only negative, apart from the fact that it is ugly from the side, is that the seats are too short. I'm only 5'11 but still annoying. I wish they would offer it with the same amazing seats as in the X5M or if they want to go all comfort, the 7.
  10. Pretty cool that. I gamed the Honma PP-717 blades with the same idea back in college during the 90’s. They were a tad smaller though. I wouldn’t have hit the ball with them these days..
  11. Wow! I just bought a set with shafts I need to replace (as I would these ones). They are in good shape but not quite as good as these. Spectacular to find these new 7 years after they were made. I hope they find a loving home.
  12. A good friend of mine that I've played with regularly for 30 years (damn I'm old!) has always hit the ball at least a club and a half longer than me. He has a really smooth tempo but a big turn. Plays at a +3.7 hcp and shot - 60 - last summer. When I picked up his clubs that day he had just received a new set from Ping. The irons had XP 95 in stiff. To me they felt way too light, but for him they are spot on. I would estimate his driver speed to 110-115 but it all looks so slow and smooth. Distans says something different. Telling this as I would have put him in Modus 130x, not XP95s.
  13. The 950GH are a bit different though. To me they are very loose. Make sure you don't end up with C8 or something like that in swing weight. Try to keep them at D3 with a lighter shaft.
  14. Hey, Well, with 66 mph swing speed in a 4-iron, I can totally see the benefit of a lighter weight shaft for you. Even if the launch monitor you are using is off by 10 mph, that would likely be the case. And as Dean mentioned above, the nine is smooth AND stable. And the stable part seems to be something you need. So, worth a shot I'd say. I'm going down in weight too, to get somewhere close to where I once was. Still think that I hit my 7-iron 175 yds but I tend to come up short very often.. It is tricky to get the brain to understand that the speed is not there anymore. In the past, all I've looked for is consistency and I have relied on good ball-striking with heavier steel shafts. 130g range. But now I just bought a set of Oban CT-115, in X, that will go into my one set. And Modus 105 in S into another. I have Modus 120 S in one set already and a set of Modus 120 X too. But I'm quite convinced that a stable, lighter weight shaft, will help me with my iron play this season. Last year I played a Crazy Target Tour in S. It was way too whippy (not at all stable) and I could not control the draw and could certainly not hit a low cut shot at all. Thus, the Modus 105 S may not be for me, whereas the CT-115 in X could be spot on. But again, the launch monitor, when set up correctly, seldom lies. So I guess I'll find out.
