‘Help me pick new irons’ – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

In our forums, our members have been helping out GolfWRX member ‘MtlJeff’ in his hunt for new irons. ‘MtlJeff’ wants a new set of irons as a luxury purchase and says:

“I want new irons. I don’t NEED new irons I just want them. I also can’t get fit because of Covid. This is a luxury purchase. Please don’t tell me to get fitted. This is a luxury purchase. I basically have it narrowed down to:

1) Callaway Apex Pro ’21: I feel like these are too small for me. I’m a little concerned about playing the 4-5 irons.

2) Srixon ZX5/7 combo set: They look nice, but not crazy about the ZX5 loft bunching at the bottom, they have 3 irons in a 4 degree gap. Plus no gap wedge in lefty….ehh. Not good

2) Mizuno JPX921 SEL: Seems to make sense on paper. Loft spacing is nice. Forgiveness in the long irons and a gap wedge in lefty

3) TMAG P770: These are my favorite right now. I hear they are slightly bigger than the Callaways. They look really sexy with the blade-ish design…And TMAG has the best shaft offering, for example, I really want to try Modus 130s, and they are a free shaft with the P770s

So basically….Can anyone convince me not to get the TMAGs?”

And our members have been sharing their thoughts on the subject.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

XHoop24: “The 770s are an awesome looking iron. I’ve heard ‘feel’ is just ok and maybe not Mizuno soft but I can’t comment on that personally. I’d 100% combo with a 790 4 iron. Would be an awesome set of clubs. Honestly, couldn’t go wrong with any of those options.”
short and straight: “Pull a Fleetwood and mix it up. You’ll be more intimidating. I say older generation long irons from Srixon (4-5?), 770’s 5 or 6-P. Get a non-set gap wedge, and make sure it does not match your sand and lob. No one will want to play you for money.”
mizuno player: “I’m a Mizuno guy, so it’s hard to argue against that. But I will. The Apex pros look awesome, and I’ll bet they feel pretty darn good too. You can always get the regular Apex in the 4-5 and go Pro in the rest of the set.”
the bishop: “Do me a solid and try the W/S Staff Model CB’s. I play right-handed, but they are available in LH for you, and you can help me out with a buying decision. Thanks in advance.”

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Andrew Von Lossow

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
