  1. I’ve tried the 588 CB, MP-64 and J-40 CB. I found the Bridgestones to be
    the most disappointing. Not particularly soft and I was losing a fair
    amount of distance.

  2. Great review, loved the extra stuff with spin rate and workability. One
    question was that shaft a bit soft for you? On the slow motion it was
    flexing a lot and over 8k RPM’s, special grooves or not is wedge like spin,
    when I had my last fitting I was told that about 5k rpms was optimal with a
    6 iron with my launch angle which averaged at 22*, and I would guess my
    swing speed is fairly similar to yours. Once in a while I still balloon a 6
    iron into a good wind….

  3. Can you possibly explain more about custom fitting? More like what actually
    you should be getting for your money. I recently got some clubs from direct
    golf an all I got for £30’s worth of custom fitting was the lie checked???
    An I’ve heard similar with American Golf

  4. Mark, I do appreciate your vids; keep on the good work! However, every time
    I see new clubs reviewed, you convince me these are the ones I need. Why
    not make a list with your favorites; or give ’em grades in different
    categories? Thanks!

  5. hi mark is there any chance of you maybe testing out any putters because im
    not too sure whether you have tested any, i know they are very similar but
    reviews on putters could be very useful!! 🙂 thanks

  6. I really want to thank you for all your helpful videos. I believe you have
    made this mid 90’s golfer into a mid to high 80’s golfer with all of your
    putting videos driving videos chipping videos ect. I really like that you
    put club vs. club videos up. Im looking from going from a big fat cavity
    back club to more of a thinner better looking club in the 600 dollar range
    can you help me thanks.

  7. The J40 CB is the softest club I have ever hit, but it isn’t meant to be
    forgiving. It’s their better player offering; Kuchar, Snedeker, and Davis
    Love III all use it. I went with the Bridgestone DPC’s b/c I wanted more
    forgiveness which is what Fred Couples is currently using. Don’t know if
    you had a chance to give those a hit.

  8. I’ve heard these are very soft. Gotta know how they compare to the Mizuno
    MP-64 in terms of feel. And that spin is interesting. I also wonder how
    long that will last. A soft metal plus a lot of texture on the face seems
    like a recipe for quick deterioration.

  9. How can trackman detect the rpm’s of a golf ball going 100+ mph away from
    you? That’s a unbelievably high rpm. That’s the rpm of industrial rotary
    tools. 8000 rpm’s nooo way. I’d guess 1500 rpm’s is max for a golf ball

  10. Love the videos. Keep up the good work! Would like to see a review on the
    588mb if you get your hands on some. I have a set of titleist 710cb and
    don’t find them that hard to hit. I would like to know your thoughts on how
    much difference you think a mb iron is vs a cb players iron. I am very
    interested in a mb iron and am just wondering how much a difference there
    actually is. Thanks!

  11. Need some putter reviews Mark. Why should I use an iron set when I can get
    a hybrid set? What do irons do that a hybrid can’t and vice versa? Thanks
    brother.

  12. Much better content Mark in this latest iron review, thank you. Shaft type,
    stiffness and distance between the two clubs would be of interest also.
    1000 rpm per iron is normal range, so 7 iron ~ 7000 as others have stated.

  13. Can you do some reviews of older stuff? There are those of us out here who
    like older equipment like older Mizunos, MacGregors and Hogans! I would
    especially like to see you hit an older Hogan Apex vs your beloved MP 53’S.
    Blindfolded.

  14. so, i play a titleist cb, and have tried my friends mizuno, nike, and
    bridgestone irons that are almost identical visually. for us guys who like
    the thin lines and little offset, is there much difference in performance
    between irons? if possible, could you do videos of blade comparisons and
    forged better player cb irons? i think doing the test on the computer would
    be even more interesting than on the range.

  15. Could you do a spin-trackman-test for wedges from various brands? Im read
    that miz offers different grooved for different lofts-> more spin for
    chip/pitch w LW and more spin for full-GW. How would that compare to
    full-swing and pitch with other brands? Say Cleveland GC or Tietlest Vookey
