    Gabe with all due respect..you played your best round with these clubs and then you're saying they are best suited to a high handicapper..then on the other hand you are saying your handicap has dropped to a 3 something. I really don't buy into the best suited for bs, you just proved it with this video..if you have a set of sticks that work for you keep them and leave your ego at the door..love your channel and efforts because you keep it real...don't change m8..

    I haven't played a RAM set in decades, but my very first set were a hand-me-down RAM blades from my dad back in the 80s. I learned the game on them and used them for years before I was able to purchase my own clubs. The RAM name will always have a place in my heart. I'm glad to see they are still putting out some good equipment.

    Well, it just goes to show that you (we) don't need to spend big in order to play a good game. The marketing gurus for the premium clubmakers imply that you can score better just by buying and using their products, but this video shows that it just ain't necessarily so. Appreciate your willingness to demonstrate this. MG

    I have these 2 months and love them. I went for stiff graphite. I have FX77 since last year saw these FXT and went for it, in the same shafts. Played 10 full rounds wear is excellent none. Accuracy 100% I am making greens 180 yards away. So very pleased.

    Thank you for doing this review. I’ve been in the market for a DTC club that I could adjust the club length without breaking the bank. I’ve been between Macgregor, Takomo, and PXG. However, I think I’m all but sold on these clubs. Love your videos, keep it up.

  • @mariofonseca9267
    @mariofonseca9267 2 месяца назад

    Gabe, another great review and that swing is looking great.
    The point I would like to make is that there is clear benefit from using game improvement irons.
    Over the last 2 years I’ve played a variety of irons ranging from T150 to ZX7 to cobra forged tec to Mizuno jpx 923. My conclusion is that if I want my handicap to be as low as possible the game improvement irons are the way to go. My handicap has fluctuated +/- 4 strokes depending on the irons being used.
    For reference I played off 7, then went down to 0.3 with game improvement irons, and now back to 3.4 with the T150. So needless to stay that the forged tec X are back in the bag.
    The suggestion that these clubs are for 15 to 25 handicappers perpetuates the idea that low handicappers should use equipment that makes it harder to shoot lower scores. And I’ve been there with the workability capability of the so called players sticks. I’m no longer in that camp and based on your results you might want to reconsider your position.
    Cheers.

    Great 9 holes Gabe and the Ram set seem very impressive. I'm torn between these, the takomo and the maltby for my good lady and myself. We're both high handicapppers and leaning towards the ram as its easier shipping from the UK and though the takomo irons look great they just would be a bit too unforgiving for our level of golf😅

      Dude if you are 30 handicap these are really all you need at this point. I started my golfing career years ago with a $50 set of Ram Tour grinds. I had no idea about clubs and those were some of the hardest to hit well clubs anyone ever made. Took me a few years of hacking with those to get any better. Irons have come a long way since then. Don't need to spend the extra dollars for big brand names as you are just paying for advertising and Tour players contracts. The clubs are not any better. Save your dollars and use it on lessons and balls. You will get better faster for it .
