Forgiving long iron help.

[claycribbs]

Ok folks. I have a set of irons that I purchased from wal-mart. I often have trouble hitting the longest iron. (5 iron) I found a good deal on a set of Ping G15 irons 3-PW plus the sand wedge. The thing is.... I don't know if I can hit a 3 iron. I am thinking that with the forgiveness of the ping irons, I can hit it but I just don't know. DO you think that the forgiveness of the pings can help me hit the 3 and 4 irons?

Bag the 3 and 4 irons and get hybrids or a hybrid and a wedge

In all honesty, probably not much. Why not just order 5-PW and then use the hybrids you have?

I play a one, three, & four hybrid then 5-pw,gw, lw.. Play what makes the game more fun and easier on your stress level )!

Are they properly fit for you?

If it's a really good deal, what do you have to loose? You can always pick up the hybrids later. Hey Birthdays, Christmas, Good grades in school day, etc. etc.

You can always get refit thought. Buying clubs that do not fit your game, you would be better off sticking with what you have. Save your money. Just my opinion.

yeah my dad is paying for half of them so I really don't have anything to lose. But if i hate the 3/4 irons and trade them in my dad won't be happy... lol

In some cases, but not really in G15s. Harder metal used in casting. Ping has a great fitting system that makes it very easy for someone to find out which set works best for them.

Clay, you know that my hybrid is too short and so I use my 3 and 4 irons instead. Mine aren't too forgiving but once you get used to hitting them they are easier. Don't try to swing hard and they are easier to hit. Now I am barely using my 3W because i got alot of practice in with my lower irons and I'm hitting them pretty well.

I do agree with JB on the fitting. Maybe if they are standard lie you can live with that. If they are 2 up or 2 down it might really cause some problems.. If they are standard you might even like the 3 & 4 irons. Most young bucks can handle the long irons farily well.

 

[claycribbs]

its standard

not going to bite on those.
