1. What irons do you currently play? Mizuno MX-300
2. What is your handicap index? no GHIN handicap but it is 7 on oobgolf, senior tees usually 6000 to 6300 yards
3. What shafts do you play in your irons (material & flex & brand)? Steel TT Dynamic Gold SL R-300 soft stepped, 1" over standard length
4. What are your thoughts on oversized irons? They have a reputation of being easier to hit, and harder to work the ball. Supposedly they have a bigger sweetspot and launch the ball high. I have been playing GI irons, but I don't believe any of them have been oversized. Callaway X-14's, Mizuno MX-23's and the Mizuno MX-300's are the ones I have played over the years. I always let the fitter suggest the club and did not try to steer the fitters toward any particular club. I would enjoy trying an oversized iron to see if it might help an old man's game. I already game hybrids in place of the 3, 4 & 5 irons so I would be comparing apples to apples in that department.
5. Tell us about your testing plan & activity level on THP? I play golf 3 or 4 times per week and usually am at the range 1 or 2 times, I would go ahead and bag these clubs for the entire testing period and give several weekly updates on the performance. I play at least once per week in our local blitz so I would be able to comment on how they perform in competition at least once per week. I will post video and pictures of the clubs. I will allow other golfers to hit them and record and report their thoughts on them. As far as my activity level, I am a hardcore THP addict and am online and posting quite a bit. This is easily my favorite site and I spend several hours here on the average day. I do have a Facebook account and will post comments there.
One item I must throw out is that I will be taking a 13 day trip to Hawaii from September 21st to October 4th and would be unable to play or test during that 2 week period, that is something I feel you need to know in advance.
Thank you Adams Golf and THP for giving this opportunity to all of us here at THP.
