I think the slingshots are great clubs when i am hitting off a tee but when it comes to soft fairways they are very chunkable

slingshots have a wider sole your probably more of the forged player.

When I first hit the Slingshots at an indoor range, (Edwin Watts store), they only had the style with the real fat backs on them. I didn't much care for the look because I'd see the back of the iron sometimes, but they really felt good.

Now, last weekend I took my clubs to be regripped at a different Watts store and saw one of the Slingshot sets that are a more traditional depth. NOW I'm impressed!

I also hit the Nike progressive irons and another iron they make that is a simple notch weighted design you could mistake for a Callaway if it didn't have a swoosh on it.

I have new clubs, but when the time comes to change, I have to think I'll look really closely at the Nike products. Everything in the line seems to be comfortable to me right off the bat.

I was playing a round with a buddy of mine one day and he let me hit his A wedge from about 115 yards out. We usually hit about the same length so he said it should be pretty close. I hit the thing thin and slice it to boot, it goes about 140 yards right into the parking lot. A loud crash, a sick feeling in my stomach and a hectic ride to see how much damage I had done are the only things I can think of when someone mentions an A wedge. Apparently it bounced in the bed of a truck or something because I couldn't find a caved in hood or fender or busted windshield anywhere. Almost enough to make me want to give up golf. Almost.

Glad to hear it was only "Almost"...

I have a friend in the glass business who hit his own truck one time and broke a piece of glass on the side rack. He was chipping in his own front yard, so not only did he break the glass, he had to clean it up himself too.
