Date: May 19th, 2025 12:41 PM Author: Cowghost I've been battling a nasty hook/pull all year
Finally realized my hands were too far forward with anything longer than 9i
Neutralized my hand placement at setup, even closing the club face a little. It looked and felt weird at first but everything went straight (pulled slightly left with a few degrees of fade)
My instructor probably couldn't figure this out because his view is always behind the swing
Then at the end I added the Harvey Penick forward press motion into my take back; but extremely subtle (see Ludvig Aberg for example)
Somehow this added like 10-15 yards of carry while keeping the same baby fade and trajectory (probably from optimizing tempo and easier to hinge trail wrist)
TL;DR: I sucked at hitting irons for like 3 months and neutralizing my hand/ball placement fixed everything |

Date: May 19th, 2025 5:43 PM Author: jock itch I demoed some Ping Blueprints a few weeks ago, one with KBS and one with dynamic gold. DG is the potus. better than that project X shit I currently have. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5727241&forum_id=2],#48945325) |

Date: May 19th, 2025 10:08 PM Author: Cowghost DG is a tour level shaft
KBS and project X are vanilla off the shelf tier
Nippon N.S. Pro Modus 3 and Zelos seem more comparable to DG (or better)

Date: May 19th, 2025 10:27 PM Author: Judas Jones Nippons feel smooth as fuck, but they its kind of a weird flex profile and I hit a lot of big pulls or hooks with them. Saw better results with the dg 105 and kbs ctaper lite than the modus 105 and 120 or the PX IO from mid weight shafts. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5727241&forum_id=2],#48946054) |

Date: May 20th, 2025 9:32 AM Author: Judas Jones Plenty of pros play kbs or px, but I think DG is still by far most played iron shaft on tour. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5727241&forum_id=2],#48946707) |
