gocchin Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 I scanned these all at identical resolutions from May's Choice magazine so they should all be in scale to each other. Good for a top line reference. Features some 2006 models and 2007 models up to March of this year with a few missing here and there like JPX E500 and Srixon WR... The irons are broken into 4 categories as you can see from the colors, mostly based upon lofts and iron design (and shaft influence): First category is irons with a focus on max distance and high trajectory - just hit it and it goes, high and far, strong lofts thicker top lines Second category is irons focusing on feel not distance... weaker lofts, more for feel, player not worried about max distance but has feel as a priority Third category is irons focused on playability and control - on impact you know where the ball is going, blade type irons are here Fourth category is irons focused on both distance and playability - irons go far with controlled trajectory and playability, all around type irons here.

chinkwan Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Thankx Gocchin.. this is great.. get to see so many irons side by side on address..

gocchin Posted June 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 I think most guys based their purchases a lot on the looks of the irons at address... I definitely do. I don't like chunky but too thin also affects my confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
