Golf 2026

[zurch1818]

I can't wait to get out golfing this year. Time for a new thread! I'll start.

One of my dad's friends (I guess my friend too) passed away last summer. Over Christmas, I found out he left me and my brothers some money. He was a huge golfer, so I decided I would honer him by going out and buying some new irons to replace my antique 2005 Titleist 804.os irons.

Over all the irons I got hit (must have been 6 different sets), I settled on the Titleist T150 irons. My current 7 iron goes 170. Yesterday, it was going 195. I looked at the specs and the new 7 iron has the same loft as my former 6 iron...which typically travels 180. I did have my former 7 iron with me...and that distance was fairly true.

I have a tough time believing that technology has that much of an impact. In my fitting, they made the loft 1° weaker to help me get the ball up in the air.
