Good stuff, have been doing the same quite lately with the DPC PW. Love the half shots with the PW as of late.

Me too man! I saw that quite a few Tour players do that kind of thing and it got me to thinking. I am loving it so far.

Sorry dude, I'm having "i heard from my tour rep" envy.

hahaha...I understand that

yeah yeah...I did hit them great...ask TMex!

But, I like my DPC's...its why I got the 38 DPC's when it was announced I was a Bridgy staffer. to get accustomed to the irons. Say what you want ladies.

You ripped them One T! Thats whats kinda surprising to me but I totally understand! You gotta go with your gut.

Very nice! So that will be a 6* gap between the PW and 52*, correct?

Yep, it'll go from a 46 degree PW to my 52 degree gap wedge. That's what I have now and I have learned more versatility with my PW this way. I expect the CB pitching wedge to be even more versatile yet.

Agreed P4B! So many are just so obsessed with degree gaps its kinda crazy. For one, different shafts (for the most part) in between wedges and J40's. Secondly, different clubs and having a consistent gap in lofts does not mean consistent distance gaps. I like the set up P4B. Im gonna bend my 52* to 50* and work it like that.

My goal at demo day was to find an iron shaft that I liked. While the PX Flighted felt pretty good and performed, there was something about the KBS Shafts that I hit in a few different iron heads that I liked a little better. I also liked how the black oxide wedges looked while down there, including Tadashi's battle tested wedges. Can't wait for these to arrive!

Thanks again to Bridgestone for the plethora of options you made available to us. It really made things easier to know what we were looking at before we got to place our orders.

And the exact one I went with. Could have sworn I would not have done the black oxide but after having Freddie's in the bag, I just fell in love with that worn finish.

Now I need to get them and let them soak in water for a week. :act-up: ha

haha. This is going to be an interesting experiment. I figured that most shots would not be full with my wedges, but some of them would be getting close to full. Hopefully this works out. I have always played wedge flex and I wonder how this will be different.

Yeah buddy, the Black Oxide is such a good looking wedge.

Nice setups all around guys!

Looks good Tmex. I was tempted to go with the non-flighted PX but went with the familiar to me KBS. I appreciate you testing out the Modus which in the end kept me away from them as I don't think that would have ended well for me.
