      Why do you care so much what other UA-camrs choose to game? Most of em get to test all the big brand’s new releases each year and they choose what they like best. I haven’t seen many of Mark’s videos but based on how everything was Srixon/Cleveland, I’m assuming he’s sponsored so he has to choose Srixon. And if you’re just talking about him playing more cavity back irons, that’s just personal choice and if they want to play blades, why are you gonna get bent out of shape about it? lol

      @@sonysand8202 I would like to know what UA-camrs your talking about specifically because you just sound like a depressed and angry individual if you’re this mad about what clubs UA-camrs choose to play. Also, those golfers aren’t slowing the game down more than those 15+ handicappers who are slicing or hooking it into the trees and chunking or thinning iron shots all over the place. If you seriously think UA-cam pros/players and low handicap golfers using blades are slowing down pace of play because they’re using blades, you’re very ignorant. I play off a 5 and use the mp20s from mizuno and I GUARANTEE I’m not slowing down anybody on the golf course. Once you get good enough, using a blade isn’t going to effect your pace of play

The point on grip is interesting as I’m moving to 2 extra wraps on a standard Golf Pride Full Cord and finding more consistency. Hoping a combination of tech, regular practice and some regular gym work will shave those 2-3 shots into CatA!

    Our bag constructions are nearly identical, except I've bent my PW weaker to 47 degrees because I want a 52/58 wedge setup but with a more versatile 52 - so I special ordered a Cleveland Fullface CBX2, like yours, except in a C-grind 54-degree, have had it bent stronger to 52.5, 1/2 longer for potentially more distance when needed, and with a heavier S400 shaft - getting that C-grind for me is KEY - far more flexible - especially with that heal-relief

    Thanks Mark. There is so much hype to go player distance irons that I was considering it. I was thinking of going with the zx5 mkii but after watching this I think I could also benefit from a little more help with the zx4. You mention adding the zx7 PW. Did you consider blending the zx5 8i, 9i, PW at that end of my bag? Or was there not a lot of difference when you tried them?
    This is my biggest concern when getting fitted for irons. They do everything with a 7i. Ric

    I swear Mark either checks my bag before he does his own or we both have a love for odd clubs and bag set ups. I had the original zx4 5-AW but changed to the Apex DCB 6-AW. Added a hybrid between my 6i and 22* hybrid because i had a huge distance gap. I had the Hywood and Chipper already in my bag before Mark did videos on them last year. But recently pulled the chipper and my old cbx 56* for a 52* and 58* CBX zipcore. Hywood is the go to club and ive had to friends buy their own after seeing and testing mine. High handicappers best friend. Carried a heavenwood/7w to go with the driver but recently replaced it with stealth 5wood.

    Nice bag Mark.
    I'm not as good as you but your lessons are really helping.
    I have the previous ZX5 drive but haven't tried it yet. The ZX MKII 7 wood(off deck), ZX MKII 2 hybrid (tee up long par 3 and short par 4), ZX MKII 4 and 5 hybrids, 6 through Approach ZX5 MKII irons, CBX Zipcore full face 56 and CBX Zipcore 60 wedge.
    I compared the ZX4 MKII and ZX5 MKII in the pro shop and didn't see any really discernable difference between the two other than the head felt heavier on the ZX4 and I didn't like that but I like the heavier Pro Modus 105 shaft and the looks of the ZX5 better so I went with that. I guess I just prefer players distance better than game improvement even though I'm not really all that good. I'm shocked by your choice of the 4's. Cheers!

    I’m sure you know this Mark but those grips you want to put on are heavier and will affect the swing weight especially on your irons. Winn make midsize grips that are the same weight as standard grips. I have big hands and struggled with the added weight/swing weight effect. The Winn grips fixed this. Great modern bag. I’ve recently put in a 6 hybrid so I game a 7 wood 5&6 hybrid. I’m 52 and play a 7 handicap. Game chargers from semi rough.

I don’t want to lose a club buy getting a 60 degree and keeping the 56 degree but worries about having 8 degrees difference. What are your thought? Typically will use my 56 degree for 80 yards and in plus bunker shots. I never really use it for a full swing unless I have to get over a tree. Just thinking 58 degree might help me more from bunkers and around the greens

    I appreciate that you don´t care about cosmetics and so on. And I respect that you build your bag purely on lofts, ease of use and numbers. However, I really wouldn´t enjoy this kind of bag with 2 PWs, chunky irons, chipper, different brands... From my point of view it´s not only about numbers. Although game improvement irons make it easier and I maybe would profit from having these in the bag (hcp 9) I really don´t want to look down on such chunky irons. For me (!) it´s about asthetics as well. All the best for your season Mark!

    interesting stuff.
    Where do you stand on hybrid lie angles? being a tall person I find them too flat. Some hybrids only have flatter settings if any (Ive experimented with longer shafts to raise the toe). My experience is irons that are fitted for me are easier to use than hybrids or woods. Also irons have a high toe, from the rough I can more easily sky a hybrid or wood. Also, also a comparable iron has a shorter shaft and a flat face not roll or bulge to confuse my limited mental acuity.

But I'd like to play around with the top end of the bag to see if going away from the traditional driver, 3 and 5 wood would suit me. I was skeptical of ditching my 3 and 4 irons for a 4 hybrid but wouldn't go back now.

    Just picked up a used set of 4-P ZX4 the 21' model and they seem solid. Love my ST Pros but wanted to go back and try some GIs again. Hoping they help me break 80 this year

    Couldn’t a hybrid replace your chipper?

    Tell me more about the +size grips. You and I are similar in size for reference, but I was born with a physical disability in my hands. I have a hard time getting a good grip with my right hand, because I can't close my middle finger all the way. Would a +size grip help with that?
