    Hey Guys, I’m Alex Etches and I’m a golf professional and product reviewer. If you don’t know me, I started playing golf from 10 years old, turned professional at 22 in the UK, and have been creating entertaining and informative golf content on different platforms for the last 10 years. My home is now AUSTRALIA and I hope to take you around some of the best golf courses from down under.
    On this channel, you can expect many fun reviews and videos. From testing out some crazy golf clubs to the latest product releases which include TaylorMade, Callaway, Cobra, Mizuno, Titleist, and many more...
    I also do lots of traveling and will bring you along the journey with me. With Golf Vlogs from the UK, the US, and many other locations it never gets boring on tour with #TEAMAL!
    Anyway, enough about me - If you’re new to the channel, or have been with #TEAMAL for a while, write a message down in the comment section and say Hi!

    So, many sources say the 7 iron is 34 degrees - including an offical sell sheet from Cobra, MyGolfSpy and so on... however, other sources says 33! 😂

    I have played like 5 different sets of irons over the last 3 years as I like to switch things up every so often… irons I have gamed include the p790, Apex 19 pro, zx7, t100s and now the mim and I have to say out of all those irons I have games in the last couple years the MIMs are 100% my favorite and have been in the bag for about 6 months now and I have no intention of changing anytime soon as I am playing better now then I have in the last 4-5 years with these irons! The feel, sound, yardage are all spot on for me and I absolutely love them! Cobra is stepping up their game the last couple years and I’m loving it! 🙂⛳️🤙🏼

Heads are huge and I love them to bits. I got 3-PW and the A and S wedges. These wedges are awesome, nothing compares. New Kings look ok.

    I've played Mizuno MP3022 years and T100S for last two years but I can say with confidence KING TOUR MIM irons fit my eye but ARE MORE FORGIVING and feel great. This is very unique the look and feedback of players cavity backed iron but with some forgiveness. WINNING COMBINATION IMO Thicker top line by a bit but the forgiveness with feel * look is great.

    • @brenton-ford
      @brenton-ford 4 роки тому +2

      At 14hc and as long as your ball striking is decent these shouldn't be a problem, you could always get a combo of the forgiving forged tech in the longer 4/5 irons for a little extra help but these are definitely playable for you. Similar to an Apex Pro or T100 or P770.
