Best Ball Striking Drill Eva
This ball-striking drill-more than any other-gets me swinging my best. It produces better contact, more distance, higher ball flight, and more control. More details here: golfergeeks.com/my-most-favorite-ball-striking-drill-eva/
I recommend it to everyone I see who shows the slightest interest. It makes me a better player when I use it.
It has only one major flaw...
I get lazy and don't do it.

My 2nd Favorite Ball-Striking Drill - Especially good for Creating a Powerful Pivot and Turn
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.2 месяца назад
This is a drill I love but don't do nearly enough. I recommend it to anyone searching for better ball striking and a more efficient swing. The full write-up is here: golfergeeks.com/one-of-my-favorite-ball-striking-drills/ I recommend doing 3 sets of 10 a day for this one. The more often you do it the quicker you'll ingrain the move and make it part of your swing. It does so many good things. T...
Cobra Darkspeed Irons Range Session

    It's very sad that Hogan has gone out of business. I recently got my hands on a full set of Edge EX irons! I have managed to put together a full set; GS53 max driver, 3 and 4h, 4i-Pw, 50, 54, 58 wedges. I'm pretty stoked to have them! I haven't played with them yet. Now I'm not sure I want to play them. Only a couple if the irons have been hit. I'm fairly new to golf, 3 years into it. I'm glad I have them, though. I'm wondering about the PTx Pros, though.

      You would think that would be the case. It hasn't played out that way on the course. I've close to a dozen rounds in and I'm sticking greens pin high consistently. I've even got time on launch monitors (using range balls) and I haven't found awkward gapping. My plan is to get in a hitting bay with the premium balls I play and check for any gaps. I love the P790s, but they are not as consistent from shot to shot for me. I'll update with a post on my site sometime soon.

    Currently waiting for my new P790s. Coming from traditional lofted clubs P770s circa 2017 (34 deg 7 iron) I'm wondering if you had to make similar adjustments in extra distance gapping ? Wondering if it makes sense to weaken the lofts a degree or 2. I am a 5 hdcp and have hit my 7 iron 150-155 for as long as I can remember. Hoping it isn't too difficult to get used to new yardages.

      I'm still working on my distances, to be honest. I carried my 7-iron 165 yds forever. I've carried a few over 180 with my 790s and had similar experiences with other irons in the set. I've heard of people weakening the lofts, but I would worry about ballooning and loss of control. They go so high already because of optimized launch.

      Hey Donald. I used it for a couple range sessions and found the video quality exceptional. The software was a little clunky at the time. I never got around to the full review.

    Have u noticed u hit these wedges really low with lots of spin? I noticed the first step on the shaft is much closer to the hosle and it almost goes too low

    • @GolferGeeks

      For me, these aren't the highest spinning wedges but they work well for the conditions I play here in Houston. I hit them pretty much any hight I want. I usually try to flight wedges though.

    @smokinjaws3310 3 года назад

    I want to see what you find out. My experience is the iron yardages are good. The spin, launch, and apex are not accurate. Swing speed and ball speed is fairly accurate as well. My driver numbers are not accurate when compared to GC2. I’ve been off about 20 yards.

    Even those these were more than 3 years old when I got fit, they outperformed Taylormade's, Cobra's, Callaway's, and Titleist's models for 2020. They also felt better and were a little less expensive. Plus, they look great, especially for a game improvement iron. The only irons I think might have been close were the P790's, had I tried them, but those cost so much more

    Hi, thanks for the video. I’m currently a 7 handicap and am looking between getting a set of all ptx pros or getting the combo set. How did you find the gapping between the 7 and 8 iron.

    • @GolferGeeks
      @GolferGeeks 3 года назад

      10 yard gap so far, which is my standard. It will take me a while to dial this in. I need extended time on the course when my swing is on. Do not take this as gospel

    Best wishes from So Cal, and hoping that Texas gets through the current icy weather, and related power and water issues soon. And specifically Ft Worth, as I have a combo set on order and am so, so anxious to receive them. I'm a 15 index currently. Going with this combo set might be a reach for my level, but I'm fine with that. I did the demo program with PTX Pro, and while I only had 1 range session, they felt and looked great. For me, these clubs instill confidence and pride. And even if my index suffers some as I get used to them, it's a small price to pay if my golf enjoyment level increases. The irons will be replacing Titleist DCI 981's I have had for almost 2 decades. And the fairway woods I also ordered will be replacing (dare I admit it) Burner Bubbles. Obviously, I don't change clubs frequently. So I would say - if you are a mid handicapper like me (I think 15ish qualifies), and you are looking at the PTX/Icon Combo, and excited about them, go for it! They will look great in your bag. And if your index suffers because you aren't hitting them as flush as you hoped, get better at chipping and putting to even things out. :) Best, and stay safe.

      Thanks for the well wishes, Jeff. We are good to go now. If you are happy with your clubs, I can not argue with that. They are a site to behold and I love mine. As for advising high handicappers to get player irons, I'm going to have to politely disagree.

      GREAT question. I ended up buying the 4 - P PTX Pros for that very reason. I'm a 5 hcp. I sold my P790s (they were awful) for these and I may have never made a better decision. Just ordered the Texas Grind (brand new!) Equalizer wedges in 54 and 58 - gotta keep the Vokey 50...its money. Hi from Ottawa!

    I received my combo set 3 weeks ago in chrome because I’m a traditionalist. At 68, I learned on blades as a 12 year old. Not sure what this “can’t play blades” nonsense is all about.

    • @christopherseymour5210
      @christopherseymour5210 3 года назад

      A lot of newer golfers are learning on equipment that is hugely forgiving compared to a bladed iron, so the sacrifice of that forgiveness is not worth it to many players who wouldn't even know how to work the ball or any of the other benefits blades have for better ball strikers. Could everyone play blades? Of course, but there just isn't a need for everyone too. I learned on my dad's old MacGregors but I still bought PTx Pros over Icons because I like having a little more forgiveness.

    I bought this set a few weeks ago. Love them. I'm hitting long irons better than I have in quite some time. High, straight and long and no jarring on mishits. The short irons are great for those chopped off knock down shots into the wind. The quality is top notch and the black set looks really sexy in the bag, too. Try them!
