so for those of you who are curious: first outing with new irons for 9 holes was AWESOME. these t100s are LEGIT! AMAZING distance control, so workable. hit a nice 7i draw around a tree from the rough to protected green and held it (would've never worked with my old 7i).
but it's not all glorious. i'm working on a swing change with my coach (getting shallower), and now i've totally Fd up my driver and mini-driver swing. 5w was good enough to play, though--about 225y off the tee.
distance gaps are pretty good at top of bag: ~275 carry driver, 250 mini driver, 225 5w, ~200y 4i (off tee). i hit the t250 4i a couple times--haven't been able to get the full ~200y carry i need from it every time but i'm sure i'll get there. only clubs i didn't hit were 5i/6i which kind of makes sense.
