If your below 95 MPH Driver speed the only club that will spin enough is mizzuno Just ask. Jay at. Ask golf nut and cobra and srixon as good as any jacked up lofted. Taylor made merry XMass and Happy NewYear Mike great work Thank you for all your hard work🏌🏼♂️⛳️🇨🇦
When testing all the different irons, with lofts being adjustable, the consumer really needs to know that when the clubs are designed that the company sets the cg for a desired loft. CG placement is the most important spec. for feel & performance. If the club is set weaker, the face progression moves forward & the cg is lowered, & the bounce is increased. My message is to purchase the irons with the lofts that you desire by fitting. The worst thing is to make lofts stronger than 1 degree standard because it can move cg higher & ruin feel & playability.
I know the price point for PXGs is very high. Through the Heroes Program they are offering PXG 0311 SGI Gen 2 for $150 a club. Being that a much more reasonable cost, how would those clubs rank for a game improvement iron?
Just curious, are the majority of high handicapper players buying game improvement clubs really fixated on the thick top line of the club. I don’t think so. Two things inspire a purchase for them, aesthetics and the potential for a better strike resulting in more distance and accuracy. Glad you didn’t mention the down right “butt ugly” PXG offerings. Totally absent of “looks” !
As I play Taylor Made M1s I guess I am just about a game improver club player. I have tried 4 out of 5 of Michael's picks: AP1 and G700 are just too big an iron for me - reminds me too much of the chunky monkey SGI irons. Rogue (normal not the X) was super high launching, long - probably 1/2 club further than my M1s - but the top line is so thick I find it very off putting. JPX 919 Hot Metal is a hard one, I struggled to hit it well but it is a very nice looking club. Would be happy to play it in 5i but not 7i - I would prefer the 919 Forged even though I think it is a little bit too long from heel to toe (but the straightest flying ball flight of any iron I have ever tried) M4 is the one I haven't tried but I did try its predecessor, the M2 which was long, high launching but just not functional for me - I just could not get any stopping power on firm summer greens. If I were to change my irons I doubt I would even try it simply because being an M1 player it would seem a step backward. Would be interested to know if the spin rates on the M4 are significantly higher than M2
Whats weird to me here is that most of the irons have a pretty good amount of offset, but you are still pushing your shots. Seems like you would be drawing all of them. JMO of course.
Seasons Greetings all, I was expecting the Srixon Z 565\585 after your very positive review recently....
nice video and i agree. My n.1 is Mizuno Hot Metal and a spot for 565\585 sirxon is a must. Happy new year Micheal.
Merry Christmas Mike, thanks for all your great content this year.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Michael! Looking forward to more of your great videos in the New Year
Merry Christmas Mike... Great content this year. Have you hit the 4 irons in these sets?
Excellent review.
Thanks and be safe from a fan in Texas

Srixon Z585 irons will be No.1 GI iron in Mike’s 2019 round up.

Srixon no mention? very under rated brand!!
Won’t disagree with the order however I tried the m4 irons and was shocked by them, the felt awful. Settled on a set of g400 instead

My 5 iron is 27°😂😂
Game improvement irons are a sham. They aren't lofted and have longer shafts. So of course they will travel for days.
