I’m in a pickle and would love to hear people’s advice. I have two sets of irons that are built to the same specs, PXG 0311 (5/6 in XF, 7-P in 0311 with steel fiber i95 reg) and P790 (Recoil 95 reg).
The only difference between the two is the swingweight, the 790 feel a touch heavier.
i need to make a mental commitment between the two, swapping in and out isn’t helping.
the 790’s are almost a club longer per club but produce almost a singular ball flight that I have a hard time controlling. The PXG feel better and are more neutral, I can control them better and hit a variety of shots.
however, since they’re a club short if I play a course with protected greens where everything must be pure carry and hold, I struggle because I’m hitting a longer iron in the PXG and hence my percentage of successful shots are naturally lower with a lower lofted iron.
what to do... sacrifice power for control?!
