In our forums, one user is returning to the game after an extended hiatus and is looking for a new set of irons. They’re looking at a number of different options for their iron set and asked the forum to advise.

“Hey everyone, I’ve taken 20 some years off from the game other than 2 times a year for obligations. I finally realized golf is my first true love and I’m jumping back in with both feet. It feels like coming out of a coma with how much equipment has changed. My current clubs are Tommy Armour 845 Silver Scots I bought in 1995. Lol. I have been hitting clubs for a few weeks at random stores and finally did a full fitting today. I’m torn between several clubs and would love any opinions y’all can share. Of the ones I’ve hit I like:

Titleist 620MB
Ping Blueprint -T
Mizuno S-1
Taylor Made P-7MB/TW

“I haven’t been able to hit the TaylorMades anywhere yet. I’m having a hard enough time deciding between the other three. Hopefully tomorrow I think I found a place. Any other I NEED to check out? I don’t like Callaway or Srixon. They don’t feel very thin to me. Thanks everyone! excited to learn from this community.”

Members in the forum chimed in with recommendations, questions, and comments. 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.

  • Poor Mans Ty Webb: “Any other blades from the last 20 years you should know about? Brother, how much time and money have you got?”
  • SBH9458: “You won’t go wrong with any of those offerings. If you love a blade, then you’re tracking in the right direction. I think important to consider a few more things since you’ve narrowed it down… what shafts are you looking at and what results are they giving you? And what swingweights generate the feel you’re after to get those results? Good luck and man enjoy the journey. What a great time to jump back in!”
  • grochol17: “Definitely need to include the Wilson MBs. They are usually pretty forgiving for a blade because of the way they drill out the head at the shaft (like they are making a bore through design) which allows them to move that mass out towards the toe, bringing up the MOI.”

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Published

on

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.

Name every set of irons you’ve owned – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20
PING iE1
Taylor Made M6

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. 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.

  • macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
  • JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
  • jgrzask: “Tommy Armour 845u
    Mizuno MP-32
    Mizuno MP-33 (2 sets)
    Bridgestone J33cb – still own
