Any reason why the 2017 P790s over the new one for the rest of the irons?

    titleistforged I had the 2019 p790s with MMT shafts for a good part of the year. They ended up being not what I wanted and I just went back to my old set. New irons will be in the bag for next year

      After hitting the DGS400s in the bay I am gonna yank those out for KBS Wedge shafts. I am too old to be slugging 130g shafts.

      I also built the Mavrik TD last night to 46 inches. I am using the GDHD6x. The head weight is 188g and the swing weight is D3.5. My initial reactions to the club were not great as I didn’t really gain much with a half inch difference. We will see this weekend.

        Funny thought about the s400. Loved them in RTX4 wedges. But grabbed a TM MG 50* wedge for the range this past weekend with DG Wedge flex shaft. Was a lot of fun and so much smoother.

          P770s ordered (part 2). Let’s how long it takes to get them

          dphatt my 9 iron is being built now. Rest of the set is scheduled for mid December. As of now...

              ckay I was told January. Just in time for the snow

                What shafts are going into part 2?

                I'm considering ordering a set. Why not make things easier, right?

                    KentonQ part 2 will be Modus 120s again. I am surprised you are looking at these as you already hit the ball far enough.

                        Yeah, the TC-201/Modus 120TX combo has been good, but with two kids and another on the way, I figured the additional forgiveness may be welcome next season. Would likely order weaker lofts. No decision yet, but have been rolling around the idea of an "easier" iron for a while and I have shop credit burning a hole in my pocket...maybe a combo set?

                        Obvioulsy the MC and MB have the in the bad appeal, but when I looked at the 770 vs MC the differences at address looked so small to me I didn't see a reason to work harder.

                          KentonQ the p770 at weaker lofts are actually just as long as my p790s with a higher apex

                            KentonQ I went 1* weak, except for the 9 which went 1.5* weak to get close to my current playing lofts. Thought about blending MCs as well, but what's the point when I'm looking for overall forgiveness. Who knows how long this set lasts for me? I've ventured down this path before with RBZ Tour and RSI TP.

                                Sorry for the mini hijack dphatt . Maybe I need to start my own WITB.

                                    I am trying to get more distance since I am getting older so I have tried different drivers and different lengths and nothing can beat my gamer so I was experimenting with going with a longer swing.

                                    If I can get these numbers consistently then I would be pretty content.
