In our forums, our members have been discussing wedges. WRXer ‘sheezymaneezy’ is on the hunt for some softer feeling wedges than what he currently has, and reaches out to our members who have been sharing their suggestions in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

• Honman: “Without going too niche, I’d suggest trying Mizuno’s T22 wedges as they are forged.”
• reider69: “I just moved from SM8s to Mizuno S23 wedges.  Softer by a mile.  Feel like a buttery Mizuno iron.”
• alarsen727: “Sub70 wedges are forged and are soft and a great price I might add. Love mine.”
• elwhippy: “Bump Mizuno. Add in Fourteen and the forged Pings. You could pick up some forged Vokey and Cleveland Japanese models off Rakuten or Ebay.”

In our forums, our members have been discussing when or if there’s an optimal time to move away from game improvement irons. WRXer ‘ThreePuttForPar’ has recently gotten the golf bug again and has worked his way down to a 7 handicap, and reaches out to our members saying:

“When I got the bug again I went through a few sets and settled on Titleist T300. Started back shooting high 80s- mid-90s, depending on the course, but I have got back to breaking 80 once in a while on easier courses. 

I have been loving T300’s forgiveness and distance, especially when first getting back into it. But now that I’m finding the face more often again. I’m really contemplating something more like a Srixon ZX5/7, Miz 225 or Jpx pro, P770/p790, i525…

I’ve also never been custom fit, ever, in 25 years of golf. I’ve always just used the 90 return policy at my local Roger Dunn golf shop to “fit myself” by keep swapping clubs till I get something I like.

Anyone else blow the dust off their game with GI irons and then move back to mid-playerish irons? Did you see any benefits other than feel? Do custom fits really make that big of a difference if you live near a shop where you can just keep trying all the different off the rack sets?”

And our members have been sharing their thoughts on the topic in our forum.

• chinaski: “Try and get some irons you can test off the grass. Turf interaction is more important than forgiveness. GI only really help if you have trouble with launch or are always hitting off the toe.”
• Is Golf Fun Or Work: “I’ve played with folks using GI irons that are near scratch. Why change what’s been working?”
• golfinbrad: “Nothing wrong with doing a fitting. Trying different head/shaft combos can be both fun and educational. I don’t recommend going in with the mindset I’m getting a new set, period! See how they feel, look and perform to what you have. Congrats on getting the handicap down. That doesn’t mean you need to ditch the GIs. If you are hitting them well, I would stick with them unless you find something better. Replacing irons is not the same as a driver.”

In our forums, our members have been discussing drivers. WRXer ‘Big_BenB’ wants to find the most forgiving driver currently available, and our members have been sharing their best picks in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

• Crimson62185: “I haven’t personally tested drivers recently, but from early reviews and feedback I’ve heard from several fitters, I believe it has to be the Ping G430 Max.”
• Switter: “I have hit many drivers from all the big manufacturers over the years. The Callaway Epic Flash sz is so far the most forgiving longest driver I have ever played. It would take one heck of a driver to kick it out of my bag.”
• lambo428: “G400 Max is very good but the Cobra Radspeed XB and the Cobra LTDx LS are better.”
• philly2kuk: “The common consensus is Ping make the most forgiving drivers, but you will get other drivers mentioned here due to people’s personal preference.”
