    I have been using the udi 2 iron for over a year now and absolutely love it. My hybrid has been confined to the garage, and I feel a lot more confident with my 4 and 5 irons

  • @not2betakenseriously
    @not2betakenseriously 6 років тому +3

    Playing the P790s currently and have been mulling over a driving iron for a while now. This review couldn't have come at a more perfect time. Thanks for the always thorough breakdown.

  • @2teej742
    @2teej742 6 років тому +1

    Picked this up yesterday and I will never take it out of my bag it has officially replaced my three wood as my favorite club! It’s absolutely amazing it’s for the better player no doubt it’s hard to hit but the shots I’ve had with this have been nothing but butter! Absolutely in love with this club so so so worth it!!

  • @5sharman
    @5sharman 6 років тому +4

    I love this style of video! I’ve been watching Mr. shiels for about a year now and I love the live reaction rather than just the numbers! Thank you rick for all the videos you’ve truly helped my golf game a lot!

  • @NLTheMash
    @NLTheMash 6 років тому +2

    I recognize every word you're saying. I have the old Taylormade UDI 2-iron, and I thoroughly enjoy every single shot I hit with it. It's a monster from the tee, especially on dry fairways, where the roll out can be massive, and the ability to hit it both high and low is great. Use it more from the tee than my driver...

  • @MrCircus177
    @MrCircus177 6 років тому +3

    Just bought one of these last week. Absolutely love it! Goes miles and it's incredibly workable

  • @hedmamac000

  • @huntygolfer
    @huntygolfer 6 років тому +1

    Great video again Rick... had the udi in my bag for 4 weeks now completely changed my game... best purchase for 3 years

  • @Belvezar
    @Belvezar 6 років тому +1

    I am still a low double figure handicap but borrowed a friends 2 iron… what a club!!!
    I am investing in a 2 iron and you made the choice very easy.
    Thanks a lot Rick.
    Keep up the good reviews!!

  • @little-chief1018
    @little-chief1018 6 років тому +2

    I personally don’t go past a 4 iron but that made me want a 2 iron now, just the way it sounds and the design is just so futuristic. Great video

    Hey Rick,
    I hope you don't mind if I give a shoutout to Ted's Bakery... this morning I bought a dozen doughnut holes but when I got back to my car there were 14 in the bag!
    Great video by the way, BIG FAN!

    After watching your video I bought the 2 iron and it was so great I left my driver in the bag and broke 90 for the first time. Thanks so much Rick!!

    • @ScoreGasm54
      @ScoreGasm54 5 років тому

      He said the club is meant for better, low handicap players, does it have some good forgiveness then? If you just broke 90 (7 months ago) then how did the club work for you?

    @justtosaythis2087 6 років тому

    I used to keep a one iron in my bag for days my driver just didn't want to cooperate. When hit right it was sweet. But when hit wrong it was like taking a 2x4 to a streetlight. I want to try one of these. Great review Rick.

  • @adrianadams6237
    @adrianadams6237 6 років тому +1

    Lovely looking club . I use 718 ap2 irons but got a AP3 3 iron 2 degrees strong to 17 degrees with kbs c- taper x130 it’s a beast and can be hit high or low . With the little bit of offset it’s easy to hit and forgiving too 🙂

    Hi Rick I have a set of talyormade p790 absolutely love them and I wanted to try it so much so I got a shot of it and couldn't hit it at all do have a rsi 3 udi iron absolutely love it first tome I hit it went 260 yards

  • @tyleregan
    @tyleregan 6 років тому

    Watchin you and Pete stripe driving irons introduced me to these bad boys and now i'm rocking a Srixon U65 18 degree 2 Iron and absolutely love it! Keep up the great contend Rick!

  • @johngillett2484
    @johngillett2484 6 років тому +1

    Just absolutely love the look of the p790 and I want to get them for my next set whenever that is... I wish I could hit a 2 iron like that but great video! Keep up the great content

  • @michaelmayberry8217
    @michaelmayberry8217 Рік тому

    i love mine, i have three of them, its a great par three driver and low ball out of the woods iron

  • @rmgrorders
    @rmgrorders 6 років тому +1

    Good video, Rick. I tested callways x forged UT yesterday . Have you tried that version? The ball speed off the 21 degree was better than my 16 degree hybrid and better grouped as well. Compared to the TMade it was also as long and better dispersion.
    Awesome content.

  • @maxcameron7094
    @maxcameron7094 6 років тому

    Coming from the Mizuno MP-25, and after watching your review on the P790, I got them as a full set 4 from P, and there are absolutely amazing. Cheers for the reviews of clubs.

  • @mattleader821

    Bought one a few months ago and it’s probably my favourite club in the bag.

    • @joedubiel6702
      @joedubiel6702 6 років тому

      Don't feel bad Rob. I would not touch it with a ten foot pole. I gotta stick with my hybrids. I have a complete set of Callaway Hybrids 3-8. XR 16s 3-5 and Rogue X 6-8. I can do just about anything with them. Love watching the reviews with you and Rick by the way. Great stuff.

    I’m a 20 handicap and play with the udi as a driving iron. I find it really easy to hit as long as u can swing a club pretty fast.

  • @grahameturner7415

  • @jeffvaughan3289
    @jeffvaughan3289 6 років тому

    Rick, I don't have a handicap as i am not a member and only play once every few month. I have the older Taylormade 2 iron and it is the best club in my bag, I love hitting it. I also have an old Tommy Armour 14deg driving iron but that has no forgiveness at all

  • @reubencapstick1566
    @reubencapstick1566 6 років тому +2

    Strong long! A great video Rick, I think you might be saying goodbye to your trusty apex 2 iron after that review! Could you possibly do a video about forgiving 2 irons?? Thanks for all the amazing videos over the years!!

  • @mwillgo
    @mwillgo 6 років тому +1

    The P790 are the best looking irons TaylorMade has produced. Unfortunately my game isn’t good enough for a 2 iron at the moment. But one must have goals! 👌🏽

  • @dougierobertson2099
    @dougierobertson2099 6 років тому

    Loved watching a driving iron used properly, could you review an alternative choice for the higher handicapper ? Maybe your pick of a strong hybrid. Thanks.

  • @Coldpies
    @Coldpies 6 років тому +1

  • @johnparker4918
    @johnparker4918 6 років тому

    Check out the m2 LIFT. It’s the 2017 m2 iron in a 2 iron loft (16*). It flies farther for me than the p790 2 iron

  • @barryhughes900

    After a brilliant fitting session at foregolf.ie and ending up with the P790 as my preferred irons - I’d love to try this one out.
    Great video Rick - many thanks. How was the graphite shaft?

  • @johnmonteagudo8164
    @johnmonteagudo8164 6 років тому

    I'd love to see a comparison between the different driving irons from Callaway, Taylor Made, Ping etc.. And also I'd love to see a comparison between driving iron and hybrids from same Manufacturer. So hit the UDI and a taylor Made hybrid and compare. Obviously the hybrid is going to be a higher softer landing shot I would think but to see the differences in Distance and carry and roil after carry would be interesting.

  • @suziecorreia7064
    @suziecorreia7064 6 років тому

    @jasonosterhoff1028 6 років тому

    Rick Shiels....I'm wanting an iron that I can consistently hit and get around 190-210. I'm using the Rogue pros now and hit my 5 iron 180-190. I do not like hybrids at all and was even thinking about getting the Rogue X 5 iron. What do you think about going with a driving iron instead?
    Thanks for the great vids!!!
