Seniors: Selecting the Right Set of Irons for You and Me:
Selecting the right clubs for our game can be challenging. I will share my experience with you.
So many choices can be confusing. Each brand will have different qualities and marketing claims. What can not be disputed is performance based on our variables. Variables such as age and physical condition can contribute to a difference in clubs.
Solution?
Use a launch monitor such as the Foresight Sports Falcon or Quadmax. Check out the video on the right menu for more information about Foresight.
I used Foresight to select the best club for me. You may have a different choice than the one I selected for me. However, whenever your choice is based on data over marketing, you will be a happy golfer.
For example, a few years ago, I found the best club for me was Wilson. I had no reason to check out the new technology because the Wilson was an excellent club for me.
Then the unthinkable happened. I left my 7-iron on the course. I waited months and substituted a club from a previous set, a Mizuno Forged. It is a good club but does not match my other clubs. So, I looked for a replacement, which was difficult because I have custom shafts unavailable through Wilson. Because they will not sell the head alone, I was required to buy a replacement with their stock shaft. Then, I would need to pop the head and put it on the shaft I use. I would first look for a replacement set with new technology.
My first choice was to test the Wilson Forged Dynapower. My testing showed that it was a good choice—an excellent choice compared to other brands I tried. Then, a person I had gotten to know mentioned a brand I had never considered.
The brand is Srixon. Testing this club showed me that it is a good choice for me. The stand-out differences are the dispersion pattern and outstanding feel, which are essential to me.
My aim in offering my experience is to help others find the best equipment through testing. Your game will appreciate it. I will not say Srixon is the best equipment for you, but I suggest you try it.
