sent out my wedges to Nomad Golf today. still had a 52* Nike SV and a 60* Callaway forged vintage, but needed to find a sand. looked around a little at the driving range, found this outside behind the building.



little time and have it back to raw steel



hopefully it'll only be a week or so until i have my "tour" wedges back

I still have the Callaway set with the stiff shafts, but here's the Cleveland set with regular shafts I'm trying now. I just regripped the whole set with the midsize Tour Wraps, so this week I'll be able to hold onto the clubs better. I can't wait until tomorrow!

Hmmm... my picture seems to have disappeared. Now where did I put that camera?

mizuno's patented grain flow forging is softer than most metals. so when a ball striker starts wearing out that dime in the face of their soft forged irons...rust can and will appear. i have seen mizuno mp-32 with quarter sized rust spots on every scoring iron.

It took me 2 years to find the set I have wanted. As many of you know, I have been satisfied with virtually any wood I've had and those were never the issue. Irons on the other hand, were something I wrestled with the designs of for a long time.

I'm too old fashioned for my own good and wanted something that looks like an old blade when I look down on it, but with some modern technology like an oversized head, a cavity back, maybe a small muscle in the cavity. I definitely didn't want an offset.

One of my regular playing partners has a set of Cobra irons that would be perfect if it wasn't for the offset. Cruising ebay one day, I realized Cobra made a set a few years ago, the Forged CB irons like they make now, but that the older version was exactly what I've been looking for. I spoke to the seller, a pro from the west coast of Florida and he described them satisfactorily. He sent me more pictures and the deal got done. Happy camper status was achieved in Dennis-land.

I later picked up a couple Cobra woods and hybrids to fill out the set, but Cobra doesn't make classic looking wedges, not since the Phil Rogers or Greg Norman models of many years ago. I bought some Vokey wedges, but to tell the truth, I'm not totally happy with them because they seem heavy to me. As a sand wedge, that's OK as long as I limit myself to the sand, but when I try to take a pretty full swing out of the fairway or rough, the extra weight seems to throw off my swing and I flub it.

Wedges I can deal with from a lot of sources, but I have finally found a set of irons I will keep for an eternity.
