Do you have a favorite iron? One that just seems to cooperate every time its number is called?

Same question for you @thscott05

Oh yeah, add another big advantage to Team Tudor for sure! Can't wait to hear all about your experience with them.

It's the set A wedge. I can use it from 80-110 and it just delivers every single time. Just get me to that 100 yd spot.

For me it’s PW. I have hit so many good shots from 125-135. Plus I use it around the greens as well and had a chip in with it during my last round.

Haha, I'm not kidding, they all are so good!

Can't wait to see you fellas stripe these irons!
 
Another round in with the Elyte irons and I’m not sure if it is a shaft issue, swing issue or a me issue, but I’m just not as consistent as I would like with these. What keeps me from pulling them out of the bag and going back to my Apex is those few shots in the round where contact is pure and the ball just goes.
Had a shot on the par 5th ninth yesterday where I had 167yds into a wind that needed to carry a bunker. Once the ball left the face of the club I knew it was going to be good. Ended up 20’ and made the birdie.

Anyone else have a longer than normal period getting used to these?

I was working hard to make the original combo a relaxed pairing to where I could just address and fire away. Had loft and lie checked, changed SW and it just never came to be. They still performed, just not to what I wanted them to be.

Fast forward to an iron shaft testing thanks to THP and putting them in the Elyte's, I'm already more confident after a few rounds than I was in the first 5 months testing them. It's just going to improve I think.

I’m wondering if it could be shaft. I may need to do some tinkering, because I love everything about these irons.

Im thinking I tried to go too light and jump to graphite. The heavier graphite options were better, but just didn't like the feel personally, or lack there of. I love the lower impact to the body though.

Getting back to a heavier shaft in the Modus 110X brought them to a new way of thinking. I can now give it a full swing and confident what I was seeing before won't happen.

We went with something I was intimately familiar with shaft wise already, and had played in previous two sets of irons so there was not a “break in” phase for me. It was pretty well love at first sight.

Refresh my memory, you did no fitting for yours, you were just on a flight to Cabo and threw down the card and ordered right?

Love it- two of my favorites as well. If I had to choose though, I’d say the PW is my favorite just from a usage perspective. From a comfortability perspective I know exactly what to expect out of it, and have finally got distances with it dialed in.

Do you have the same shafts as in the apex irons?
 
jlew said:
Expected nothing less from a distinguished gentleman like yourself.

So what are you thinking tinkering wise? What’s in them now?

I have the Dart Recoils 105’s in them. Not sure where to go or just keep grinding!!!
