  1. You should review not so top of the line clubs like cobra or Wilson
    wouldn’t mind seeing the bio cell or amp cell being compared to these new
    clubs like rsi! 

  3. Always interesting that the club manufacturers seem to want to trick us
    with regard to distances. It’s getting to a stage where the static loft
    should be on the bottom not the ‘iron number’ as that doesn’t seem to mean
    anything anymoy

  5. Hi Mark, I’m surprised Ping have got Lee Westwood so “up-to-date” with his
    clubs !
    I looked in his bag a couple of years ago and his irons were all Zing 2s
    (about 7 models out-moded) , and he still uses a G10 driver to this day .

  8. HI Mark I have ping i20’s, have had them from new. not looking for a change
    but am I missing out as many player including you seen to change quite alot.

    ok. so the TM iron is “longer”. but where is this gonna end? PW with 42
    degrees? then i’m gonna need 5 additional wedges to cover the shorter
    distances.

  11. Excellent points on comparative values, Mr Crossfield. I’ve been called a
    TMAG fanboy because my entire set is TM (Driver to putter). But my bag is
    an OGIO, I game Titleist ProvV1x, my shirts are generic (PGA Tour), my
    shorts are Nike, my pants are Under Armour, my shoes are Nike, my golf
    glove is Nike (ie NOT TM nor Adidas).
    I had myself fitted for clubs last year. When it came down to final
    choice, Pings, Titleist, and TMs were my best numbers and they were pretty
    much identical (much like your analysis in the video above). But, I had a
    store coupon at 15% off final purchase total. Ping and Titleist equipment
    were exempt from the coupon (they called it “manufacturer’s directive”).
    So, naturally, I bought the one brand that the coupon would work on. I did
    not care about “speed pockets”, or MOI, or PGA Tour Pro staffer. The
    performance numbers are the same… but I had more dough in my pocket when
    I left the store with TM clubs than I would have with Ping or Titleist
    (which I used for more lessons).

  12. Hello Mark, I play x100 in my irons and recently also fitted x100 shafts in
    my woods and the driver is surely next as soon as I can find a reasonably
    priced uncut 42″ long x100 shaft. Anyway, I love the feel so much I am also
    considering shafting my putter with a x100 – thoughts? Thanks in advance.

  14. Yeah, i’m liking what your saying in this video Mark….I’m a cat 1 player
    who is more focused on measurements of degree and filling the gaps that
    way. Numbers on the tops of clubs are irrelevant…I would personally go
    with the pings for 3 reasons….looks, cost (pings are nearly £300 cheaper
    from most stores/outlets) and finally….how i could work around the
    degrees….5 wedges seems crazy to me!

  15. I think the real issue here is that with Rsi2 (stronger loft, distance
    irons) you lost one club in the short, mid distance.Rsi2 irons PW 45 loft-
    7 iron 31 is only 4 irons. Ping i25 PW 46 – 6 iron 30 5 irons. It means
    that with Rsi2 the distance gap between the clubs is bigger. Which makes
    the accurate shot from short to mid distance more difficult. Also Rsi2 4
    iron 21 loft it is a hybrid for a mid handicaper

  16. Mark, what does a “better player” lose by using a forgiveness club, or what
    does he-she gain by using a non-forgiveness blade type for example?
    thanks

  19. The point is dispersion. If you have a bunker to the left and water in
    front then tighter dispersion (on miss hits) wins the day. Until we analyse
    the data from this point of view we are getting nowhere!

  20. Glad to see you mentioned the loft and length of the clubs. All too often
    reviewers fail to mention (or don’t know?) the specs of the clubs and are
    amazed at how far the new iron hits (for a six iron etc) when in actual
    fact the loft has been cranked and play as a ‘traditional’ 5 iron. No
    surprises just clever (sneaky) marketing, Great review. Thanks Mark 

  21. Mark have you thought of doing videos on training products, such as mats or
    such. Maybe a good start : FairwayPro Divot Simulator Golf Mat

  22. I tried Rocketballz a couple seasons ago, deluded into thinking I was
    getting more distance as they were juiced up. Never really happy with them,
    decided to switch back to PING and the G25s fit like a glove for mid-duffer
    like me.

  23. He He lovely stuff – it would be so much easier if the powers that be just
    specifed that all numbered clubs must to set to specific lofts otherwise
    they must be labelled with the actual loft like wedges – at present the
    numbers mean nothing – labels should mean something or they are worthless –
    when you are mixing clubs from different ranges and manufacturers these
    things matter.
