Epon 302 and Personals Comparison with Pics

At the risk of starting yet another comparison thread...

My set of Personals are finally in hand (Thanks ukok!). I shafted up the 6iron and snapped some pics today. I hope to get some range time soon and will post updates thereafter.

Personals shafted with Nippon SP Blues stiff (black ferrule); Epons with C-Taper regular flex (blue/yellow ferrule). Both play 1/2" over JDM standard.

First observation, the heads and faces appear nearly identical in size, I was expecting the Personals to be more compact. Toplines look nearly identical to me as well. The 302's soles are about 1/8" thicker and have grounded relief on the leading edge, it'll be interesting to see how the blades play in my home course grass. Personals satin win over the 302's chrome finish. Can't weigh to hit them!

That's a great comparison. I know that people have mentioned it before but the side by side shots highlight how much offset the Personals have.

FOR ME

the Personals are not nearly as forgiving. They play aprox. 1/2 club shorter. Flushed shots are just

a joy and will bring a smile to your face.

As far as turf interaction the Personals cut through the turf with less resistance. After playing the

Personals the 302's feel/seem huge in comparison even though they are almost the same size

Congrats and enjoy.

QQ, hosel size is the same? 370?? Had someone just ask me.... I thought they were the same but he

is being told different

Thanks

Cheers for the Pictures!

Be very interesting to see if these play shorter for you than the 302's
