Reader fitting opportunity - Yonex irons

[daveyc2k2]

I think the trip to Silvermere yesterday may be costing me quite a lot of money.

Knowing I am getting new irons for free, I am now considering another new shiny, either a new putter or driver.

Considering the 915 when it's released tomorrow, or and I think this is winning right now is the Scotty Cameron Futura X5R. Saw it in the pro shop and it really suits my eye, and have wanted a Scotty for a long time.

What are everyone elses thoughts?

The z force were offered as they were aimed at the average golfer so when picking the winners lower hcpers were not considered this time.
Anyhow blades would scare the bejesus out of me.

No new shiniest dave need to move some stuff on as will be carrying 2 sand wedges.

 

[bladeplayer]

That's because the z force only goes to 5 iron!

That does explain it alright , i didnt know that mate , Thanks

Great write ups guys, sounds like a cracking day and some interesting stats.

Well done Yonex and GM

After watching you hit the MP58's and then the Z Force I would expect to see an immediate impact against your handicap as the difference was night and day.

With the gapping of the hybrids matching the irons and the extra 8yds I picked up I'd also expect to see an immediate drop. I've no doubt that after winning my division in the last qualifier I played there will be shouts of banditry especially that we're now into winter rules and the majority of competitions are non qualifiers.

It's funny I've struggled all year and then everything has come together and I've had a good end to the season with the fitting opportunity being the icing on the cake. Spring just can't come around quickly enough.

I certainly hope so. My hcap has dropped from 19 to almost 15 this year so far, so would be nice to reach my target of 15. If I can go lower then great. Although I'm convinced I wasn't flushing my MP58s, but saying that when I didn't flush the Z Force they were still going well. Really excited to put them into play.

Hi Guys

On behalf of Yonex I would like to thank all those that entered this competition and it was great to meet the winners on Wednesday at Silvermere.

The response and feedback to the product testing on the day has been fantastic. The idea of the day was to get the message out there that graphite isn't just for ladies and senior golfers but for everyone. A lot of golfers are using very good equipment but this doesn't always mean it's the right set for them............having the right head, shaft weight and flex can make a big difference to not only your good shots but also your bad ones as well.

All 3 guys on Wednesday had good equipment but hadn't been custom fitted for these clubs. Too many amateur golfers nowadays go about buying clubs in an amateur way, our demo days and custom fit studio at Silvermere allows amatuer golfers to be fitted like tour professionals and from the results on the day this has certainly made and instant improvement.

Yonex is a very exclusive brand, one that I'm sure most of you walk past if you see it on the shelf but the Japanese pride themselves on quality components and most of all performance. Next time you're looking for new irons, hybrids and woods then please give them a try. Graphite isn't only for ladies or seniors, it's designed to help us all whatever standard. All 3 guys on they day used steel and graphite suited them better but graphite isn't for everyone and steel is still an option.

Once again well done to the 2 Daves and Shewy, apologies for not emailing you today regarding the delivery date of the clubs, it's been a manic day setting up for The London Golf Show. We will be in touch on Monday

I think I'm more anxious about receiving the email confirming when we will receiving the irons than I was when I was waiting for the winners to be announced.

Seriously, I never knew I was this impatient. Feel like a kid at Christmas.

Anyone heard anything yet?

 

[daveyc2k2]

Anyone heard anything yet?

Did you not get the email on Tuesday. They should have been couriered yesterday and arriving today.

Email came from Dominic. Just about to head home from work to see if mine have arrived.

 

[shewy]

Nothing in my email or no courier

 

[shewy]

Scrub that just found it in my junk email!

 

[daveyc2k2]

I see you've changed your clubs in your sig, before you've got them?? Obviously convinced they are going straight in the bag?

 

[shewy]

A bit hasty but 8 yards is 8 yards, I was thinking of changing them next year anyway as I have my 25yr gift,bet the missus wants to go somewhere instead!
Dominic tells me they are posted and should have been here today, he will chase up in the morning.

 

[daveyc2k2]

I'm at city link now. I have 2 parcels, think one is the irons and the other should be my new putter I ordered. Will let you know when I have them.

My clubs arrived this afternoon and after taking them out of the packaging and removing the plastic they look very good. I have a club foursomes knock out on Saturday so I'm hoping to be able to get out tomorrow to try them along with a new Titleist 913 driver head I bought to replace my 910.

I'll put a right up on the forum with some pics after the weekend.
