    Are we now entering the 5 wedge era?

    Yes this thread inspired me to get the blades out the loft and go down the range. Seemed to hit both about the same but how they compared I couldn’t really say. The track man was US and the balls being range balls …. well, not the same obviously. I was pleased I gave it a go. Didn’t seem a lot...

    Are we now entering the 5 wedge era?

    Yes, the iron is almost the same isn’t it? The shaft is barely a half inch longer on my Muirfield blade 5 iron with same loft as my modern 7 iron.

    Are we now entering the 5 wedge era?

    Yes, it was. In the loft I have set of Jack Nicklaus Muirfield irons. 1980s I believe. Those lofts are PW 50: 9 iron -45: 8 iron -41:7iron-37. Just watched YouTube video. The guy testing TM P790. 7 iron with loft of 30. So my old 5 iron has same loft as these 7 irons. It can’t go on and on...

    Random Irritations

    Yes, and I still parred 3 holes out of 6 on Wednesday afternoon 😂😂😂😂 Quite a number of the lads wore clogs, and I pestered my mum for some because I really wanted to have a go on those slides. They were so good and long.

    Random Irritations

Apparently someone had thrown a snowball with a stone in it and it had hit one of the kids in his head.He’d complained.. The Head demanded that the responsible...

    Random Irritations

    When I was at school in Lancashire and we had some frost or snow, slides were made in the school yard. Icy lengths were made especially icy to slide on. I was not allowed on one or two, the best ones, because I didn’t have clogs on. They had metal rail soles… best for sliding on Leather soles...
