Oops just bought some blades

[HomerJSimpson]

Had a crack of the Titleist MB's at Silvermere for a laugh. At least that's what I gave the fitter!

These ones mate - lovely to look at but not really giving me any more feel or better ba striking than my current set

Yeah, they are tidy but I get that you'd want a bit more performance to make up for the lack of forgiveness. The way you're playing, though, it probably doesn't matter!

Funnily enough Phil, and I didn't say earlier in this thread, but I recently boult a 5i to PW, Wilson Staff FG Tour V2 having never hit a blade before. Only paid £57 on evil bay for em so well worth it.

Took the 7i out with me earlier and hit a few in the nets and could tell when I'd middled em. Had to wait a few holes before I could hit one 'for real' but when I did I could tell straight away with both the sound (or lack of) off the face and the sound of the ball fizzing away that it was a belter. On approach to the green I'd span it back at least 4 feet. Question is, can I hit em like that all the time... I'm gonna take the full set out with me tomorrow but may regret that as I'm playing with a couple of forumers!

That is a hell of a bargain. Must keep more of an eye on the bay. Hope they go well for you :thup:

Yeah im quite confident with my ball striking - so if I was going to buy a new set it would have to be for performance only - a few extra yards but still with good dispersion - everything I have hit to test over the last 18 months has either gave me the same as current irons or just below

The updated TM MC gave me a little bit longer

Going to test the RSi TP soon and the TMMB if they give me nothing more than will see what is released next year

At £57 surely you'll make a profit even if they don't work out. Great e-bay pick up

At £57 I'm not bothered if they don't work and have already said I'll let a serial collector off here have em for a dozen decent balls.

McBoon, they're often listed on there. Because people don't really know they're a good bat, they sometimes don't sell and get delisted for less, but a 99p start are the ones to look out for.

On the flip side, buying from new and they depreciate faster than a Dacia Sandero.

so I've got home to the new blades and take them down to the range,after 4 weeks it's usually not a pretty sight.
Well what can I say they look the biz and I can hit em no problem,not as far as my Yonex but they have jacked up lofts.
Surprisingly I did hit them higher than the GI irons.Even the 4 iron which looks like a butter knife as a joy to hit.
