So I have not hit them side by side yet. I have hit the 6 side by side on a few shots but not a full range session yet. The XC2 are significantly smaller than the TS3. The TS3 does seem to launch a bit higher as well. However, they seem pretty comparable on a forgiveness level. Thin misses do go a fraction higher with TS3. The Maxflis really do feel fantastic though. I think they may be a fraction draw biased, could just be me as well but they are pretty easy to turn over. However, I like them a ton, so much that I decided to order an XC3 6 and 7 iron to mess with as I think this has massive potential to be a combo set. The Maxflis have a unique feel. Very soft, very solid. My one complaint that unless it is thin, it can sometimes be hard to know where you hit it on the face. I've hit some that didn't feel right per say but the ball launched high and looked like a normal shot would. I cant wait to do more testing but as of now Id recommend these irons to anyone. They also seem to have appropriate spin too. I have not hit on a monitor but just using my eyes on course, they definitely stay in the air and dont seem to go stupid distances for their lofts. They are exactly what I was hoping for.
