Rock, good shootin'. What's your index, 1?
How about the Mizooonooos? Working well for you?
There was some dude on about losing 10-20 yards off every iron when he switched to blades. How are those things dialing in?
Index? Uh, this year, it's about 40. Too many 3 putts.
I would have to say that I have lost some distance over my X-16's. I'm not a long iron hitter to begin with, but I have noticed some loss. That being said, When you do "pure" one, it goes with considerable authority. My X-16's felt all around decent just about anywhere on the face, where with the blades, you know it immediately if you've left it hanging or hit a draw that will come in too far left. The feedback is amazing.
I will honestly say that my iron game is lacking right now. I need to improve on that. I've been hitting alot of shots thin as of late, not taking turf. This is the #1 problem with all amateur golfers, not taking a proper divot with their irons, and I need to rememdy that. A bit more time at the range will do it, I had the same thing with my X-16's after switching from Big Bertha's and their huge sole.
If I had my putter dialed, or, if i was smart enough to go back to my old White Hot #2, I would save 5-6 strokes a round, easily. But, I'm stubborn. I'm going to experiment with some lead tape on the putter, get a little more weight in the head. I've read that the Tour versions of the two balls have weights added in the bottom of the toe and heel to produce a little more inertia, and get the ball rolling. If I had a complaint so far with it is on long putts I feel as tho the ball skids for the first foot and then starts to roll. I never had that happen with my #2, but I think it's just because I haven't used it much.
I have two Easton baseball gloves. Maybe they'll help with my putting.
Sorry S, I'm gonna have to pass on the Launcher. The GBBII is just outstanding these days. 340 yard par 4 over water, had a 15 yard wedge approach. Money.
