The irons GolfWRXers with a 5-10 handicap are playing

Published

In our forums, WRXer ‘bvan’ created a thread dedicated to the irons fellow members who possess a handicap in the 5 to 10 range are using. ‘Bvan’ kicks off the discussion saying “I’m a solid 9 and I’m using 712 AP2s”, and our members have been discussing their clubs and why they work for them in the thread.

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.

  • jah7838: “I play Ben Hogan PTx Pros in 5-PW with DGTI s400. The V sole works really well for my swing. They are very forgiving and easy to flight when I need to. I also have the 4 iron that I like, but I’m trying to find the right shaft to help me elevate it properly. I have a Tour Concept shaft coming in from eBay I’m going to try out this weekend if it arrives in time for me to reshaft it. I’ve had my 23* Adams Super 9031 with a s300 shaft as my 4 iron for the past 6 years or so…I honestly don’t remember how long I’ve had it, but it’s been in my bag the longest out of all my clubs.”
  • Neurotica: “PING G410s for me. 9.4 index and trending down.”
  • tigercolt77: “I’m a 5.4 and I am now playing the Taylormade p790 after years of playing Combo sets of blades and CB’s or just CB’s. I have Project X LZ 6.0 shafts in the irons. I have the lofts weakened a bit, and they honestly make the game easier for me. I figured why make it harder by playing an iron that doesn’t help on my miss-hits?”
  • CousinDonuts: “I’ve had a 7 at the start of my number for a bit. Been hitting Taylormade M1s since the summer of 2017. 4-PW plus 54* SW. Also have 50* and 58* Vokey wedges. I don’t overly try to work the ball, so these M1s suffice. They create a pretty high flight, even with the mid-kick shafts I have. If I remember correctly, my final 3 included the Calloway Apex and Mizuno JPX900.”
  • uglande: “Mizuno MP-20 and have never been happier. (Talk to me in September).”
  • scooterhd2: “Currently a 7-8 and trending down. Playing Cobra S3 irons from 2011. My first and only set of irons, but I am about to make a change.”
  • Bambabowtie: “JPX 825 Pro for now. Looking to upgrade to something new once this is all over.”

Entire Thread: “5-10 index…What irons are you playing?”

    About a 5.6 handicap with the new scoring but probably closer to an actual 9 handicap. Use Wilson C300 irons KBS Tour shafts love the control I get with these easy to shape. Use to hit Mizuno jpx 919 forged but honestly I do not see the point in hitting forged irons. They are less forgiving, see my point in less forgiving… I don’t see the point, if you find the right irons for you then you can shape shots regardless of being forged or not.
