Eca Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hi guys, My uncle is nearly 66 physically well & active hcp high 20s SS driver 80s. Bit of a picker/ scooper. Being 5'5 will need flatter/ bendable set especially in the shorter clubs. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Tons of jdm irons for you to choose from. Mizuno JPX, XXIO, Gloire Forged, even VG3 type E or go higher market with Epon 703. I would of course stay with JDM R flex and no need to change any lies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eca Posted November 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 No lies duffer, no lie angle change needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 I am 5'6" and play vg3, 551 and 703 without any issue. Cannot tell you whether it's the rule since everyone is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eca Posted November 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Thanks Duffer. Which of the gloire or vg3 type E is more wider sole / hybrid like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 If you really looking for hybrid like, you might have to look at new egg irons. While most of the one mentioned might be considered GI but not SGI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driverhead Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 PRGR Super EGG irons, M37 FLEX. The lofts are stronger and the club length is longer but the ball will go high. In reality the 8 iron is a 6. The PW loft is 40 degrees and the 8 is 30 degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eca Posted November 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 thanks Driverhead. Just read your mini review on it just now, even I feel like getting one for myself lol. From address it looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 If you are looking at wide sole, this is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Super GI is very different from GI. Super GI = Super Egg, Yamaha UD+2, But I also highly suggest the PRGR iD Nabla RS "Titan Face" Irons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driverhead Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 But I also highly suggest the PRGR iD Nabla RS "Titan Face" Irons. They seem similar in design to the PING RAPTURE J irons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
