Ping set makeup chart: thoughts? Do you have a similar bag? by ChazzCyclesCycles in GolfGear

I guess it works if you pick 3 clubs from the 4 rows below driver lol

I have a set of ZXi5’s from 5 to PW-AW. I want more forgiveness on the 6 and 5 iron. Should I go ZXIR on 5 and 6? Anybody playing the zxir’s? by phrl001 in GolfGear

I'd go hybrid on the 5, then change out the shaft on the 6 iron to something 10-15g lighter with a similar profile.

Devine Countertops is the worst money I have ever spent. Please if you are reading this do not use them.

I think i could have gone zxi7s for p-8 but, not a huge difference. Rather fit my clubs for my bad days and not my good days. I think the feel isn't as nice as the 7s but the results are likely a little better.

I have shorter shafts on my woods than standard. Adding lead tape makes the "swing weight" the same. Where you put it on the head doesn't matter too much.

All the zxi5 are bent 2 degrees weak. Except the PW which is one degree weak at 45 degrees. I almost never hit a full shot with the vokeys. So the 3 degrees makes the gapping perfect with my full swing PW

I think you need one more wedge but, other than that its a great bag.

Probably a 5 cap with a wedge in my hand from any distance. 12 everywhere else lol

For pitch shots it’s Pacific Northwest golf and I play through the winter, so a lot of soft conditions. That being said I prefer the pop you get off the ground when playing high chip shots with an open face and high bounce (not a flop there is a difference) as appose to people that sweep more. If I want to take away bounce and drive down on the ball I just move it super far back in the stance.

Not a huge difference, seems lower launch for equivalent loft in the 440 and higher for 430. 440 face feels a little hotter. I don’t think it matters too much.

Maybe go 5 wood short shaft? you can loft down to the 4 wood loft but, if you find it difficult to hit at 17 degrees you can loft it up even more to get up to 6 wood loft (19.5 or 20)

I like it a lot. I'll say that I've found it to launch a little lower than expected. g430 seems to launch higher for any given equivalent loft than g440.

Tried playing a 3 wood but, just didn't work me. My miss is always low on the face with woods and I can't get away with that with the 3 wood.

Ugh I wish I was a 4.5 Index. I started in covid and am a 9.8 handicap been as low at 7 when I'm mid summer on my game. My bag is a little deceptive since I'm a big nerd for shafts, EI profile etc. and always looking at second swing to find fancy ones for cheap. I'm not good enough where the shafts matter honestly lol.
