    I recently bought the 0211’s after playing pings for years. I know the lofts are jacked but before I hit my 7Iron 137 now I hit my 8 150+. Great looks at address as well. These are rocket launchers high and straight. Love them!

      i've had 0211 with the low end graphite R shaft about 4-5 rounds now, and getting the same results. i was playing the ping i-25 and the R steel shaft 7 iron was 130yds. now the pxg 0211 150yds. i'm 72 yrs. old and 12 hdcp. they are a much lighter club and about 1 degree stronger. good short game feel also and a bargain at $79 per.

      @@beedee9534 i have the pxg 0211 but not totally sold on them yet. i haven't got them zeroed in on the exact distances yet because of the extra length i'm getting and the 4 and 5 iron only go about 15 to 20 feet off the ground but they do go the distance. i think the lofts are only 1 degree strong so maybe it's the shafts which are the low end graphite R flex.

      @@2ndswing I would question why other's are so much more expensive. You want to know why sports other than golf are way more popular? Those costs are more manageable. I've been involved with procurement, in my past, and I can , with certainty, tell you these manufactures are ripping off the end user. PXG's while might not fit me, properly, are more of a direct to consumer than any other brand. This contributes to their lowered costs. Golf is expensive because these manufactures are making a killing in profitability.

    Did she use a regular or stiff flex graphite shaft? I think I have a similar swing speed but I never know to go with a stiff or graphite shaft since it is so much lighter than a steel shaft.

    • @2ndswing
      @2ndswing  2 года назад +1

      Jackie uses a regular flex graphite shaft. At a rough estimate with your 7 iron club speed I suggest the following ranges 70-80mph regular 80-90 stiff flex. There is going to be different situations based on transition speed but this is a good ballpark to start. Jackie's 7 iron club speed is around 75 mph - Thomas

    I never understood why people want more distance out of an iron... golf is about being able to produce a consistent distance with minimal gaps. I want. 12 yard gap from my sw all the way to my 3 wood. A strong lofted iron ruins that whole plan

      Everyone chases distance, even pros. It's an ego thing. But the key to really enjoying golf and maximizing golf ability, like you said, is finding clubs and technique that get you the most consistent distance in every situation with every shot. I'm finally content with my driver distance after 15 years of golf. Now the real fun begins.

    • @thevinsk
      @thevinsk 2 года назад +2

      Sorry guys but tons of research and statistics have you wrong. Mick Ritchie you don’t need your 7i to go 200yds? So you’re saying you can hit your 4i as accurately as your 7i? Only in a rare find will someone be better off hitting their 4i rather than their 7i for their approach shot. Unless the there is a very penal rough most golfers will do better hitting a wedge from the rough over a 7i from the fairway. I guess you guys haven’t read Mark Broadie huh? This isn’t opinion, it’s fact.
