Hi all, I am currently playing Adams Idea Pro A12 irons with the black nickel KBS Tour stiff shafts. I am 48 years old and currently off 13. I just find that I am too inconsistent with my irons and am starting the process of finding a more forgiving set of irons.
I know you will all say go and hit them but just looking for some feedback on what you play and how they have helped or not?
Research so far is pushing me towards JPX 800, Burner 2.0, Rocketballz, Ping G20 and Callaway Razr X or Blacks.
I will also be trying to sell my Adams irons if anyone is interested so make me an offer.

Cheers

Have you thought of buying s few lessons to cure your inconsistency? Your coach could probably give you some sensible advice on whether changing clubs might help.

Condition, 3 or 4 to pw etc?

Had a lesson a couple of months back and no mention of my irons but for me it’s just a feel thing.

Condition – excellent, 4 to GW new grips

Titleist Ap1 or Ap2 great irons, very forgiving

$250

I play the Ping G20s and I love them, but I am a much higher handicapper than you are. And even I really constrained in trying to be flexible with the clubs. I find it relatively clunky to try and use a different swing for shots around the green and things like that – the weighting really does seem to force you to use it for a full swing type action. I have adjusted to account for this, but I would suggest having a full round with the irons before deciding to make the switch, because you might notice a real difference.

Thanks mate but that’s a long way short of what I was hoping for. I’ll see what other offers come along.

Cheers

Yeah good point. My local pro has a set of demo Callaway Razr X Black irons that I may take a hit with this weekend.

Put the A12’s on the bay and if they sell I’ll chase some Burner 2.0s

Fitting…

Yep, straight to my local fitter to get that sorted.

Grabbed a second hand set of Callaway Razr X from the local Drummond store to have a hit with this weekend. Just hope the rain stays away and gives me a chance to try them out.
