Euro target practice
Thanks guys. Great writeup Chunky, got to love that feeling when your round adds up a couple of shots less than you expect! Nice to hear the versatility of these irons are coming into play for you.
I use the PW a lot of the time around the green, unless I'm particularly short sided, or in a bunker. I actually chipped in with the PW at the 1st yesterday. The 9i also sees a bit of action round about the green, if I have a lot of green to play with. I'm not quite as good at this shot, due to lack of practice. I'm used to the 9i shot just rolling out all the way, but you actually can get a little bit of grab with the VR Pro Combos. Great with the PW, but it'll take some getting used to with the 9i.
I can sum it up by saying if it's a straightforward chip, and a choice of PW or 54/58, I'll almost always grab the PW automatically now.
It's pretty versatile - you can even hit a flop from the rough...if you aim correctly!
This may be a day late and a dollar short but I just read the review and comments on chipping with PW. Question for the testers? How often is a PW, 9iron chipped used in a given round? What is the situation? How often do use a SW or 60*? again what is the situation? How affective are you with either?
