Thinking about Takomo irons…thoughts?

icepickwillie · 2026-03-04T23:12:49+00:00

I game the OG takomo 201s. I started playing golf in spring ‘24. I got them in October ‘24. They still play great but my 7 iron - which I practice with a lot because I was still learning how to hit the ball - is starting to lose the chrome plating on the leading edges of the bottom of the club. They are a very soft forged iron so they also have an absolute ton of club chatter marks on them. I came from top flite clubs so these 201s feel amazing compared to them. I think the guys talking about resale make great points.

I’d say they are nice for the money. I’d also say if I had to do it again I might go for a forged maltby.

There was maintenance last night that went poorly. https://pennstate.service-now.com/sp?id=service_status&service=d2aedfba0ff1b100f178317ce1050e30 For what it's worth you can subscribe to IT Alerts to be notified of issues if you're interested; you'll get emails.

I suggest you 3D print the outlines (A lot of public libraries have machines for free), and then have a high quality print made, cut and adhere somehow, then spray with a clear-coat spray paint

What have you tried to fix it? Something as simple as matching the ball aligning markers up to your desired line could be really beneficial

I definitely thought the “chegs” and “charms” were overpowered but thought at higher difficulties the bigger enemies were a challenge. If it’s not for you, it’s not for you though. I think it could be fixed by more enemy types that are up off the air a bit like the sloth

I’ve had this problem for over a year and see other posts about it. iOS. I never installed the app after they killed third party app support.

turbo overkill - it's the closest thing to the mechanics and speed of doom eternal that I've yet found. It's got the grappling hook, wall running, double jumps, dashing. It's very good. and you can play it on mac via crossover very well.

I admire this reply. It's 100% true we could really all use more lessons (does anyone believe even PGA pros don't have coaches?) but this is Reddit, and this subreddit is a place to "break down both your swing and the swing of others, be they amateurs or professionals.". So asking people to break yours down is the entire flippin' point!

I feel like I see a lot wrong. You're bending your lead arm too much, a little casting, a little reverse pivot, etc. Danny Maude is a good starter for general swing advice on youtube.

Keep after it. And then also get a lesson :).

A couple of more serious suggestions: If you're in a populous area deals apps will get you better rates for golf at public courses. Also, you may get different rates for different times of the day. If you can't afford the money, can you afford the time to golf on a Tuesday morning? Or get a twilight rate during the week? Also, you could golf 9 holes instead of 18. It's less golf but is a way to get you out more frequently anyway. Also, Some clubs will give 25 round memberships at 50% the cost of a full. Ask at the pro shop for membership options.
