I have golfed for 30 years on and off but really just started consistently getting out 1 time a week about 3 years ago. I’m 52 and sometimes scored ok.
2 years ago I bough the full set of Blackstine irons. I struggled with the 3, 4 and 5 irons but hit everything else good.
But by the end of last summer I had gone back to my old set. My iron swing speed is slow…75mph ish. Over the winter purchased the 5,7,9 woods and hit them once a week and committed this spring to give them the single length clubs an honest effort.
This summer I have played the most consistent golf of my life. The thing about the irons is they go VERY consistent distances and the same swing with 6-LW has made the game so much easier.
With the 7,9 woods specifically I am hitting greens from 160-185 yards regularly.
I had to honestly get used to just swinging smoother and stop trying to compensate and try to muscle my irons.
I couldn’t be happier and will never go back to my old variable length irons.
My advice to anyone is buy them, and commit to them. In reality took about 5-6 times out to get used to them…but since I only play once a week I was a little impatient.
David….why did you make the change from wrist to shoulder putting

Hi Lou, David uses this putter now, but suggests wrist putting as an alternative if you don’t have our putter. 🙂
Hi 1irongolf.com admin, You always provide helpful diagrams and illustrations.
I have read where you wrist putt. Here in the video, you have changed to using your shoulders.
Just wondering, why the change?
