If people have the money, and it makes them happy. The only thing I hate about the uber priced clubs is that they seem to be raising the bar for prices all around.
Absolutely loved everything you had to say in this one and couldn’t agree more!!! Playing my Miura’s has made me focus and pay attention to my swing and how it reacts at contact. And the artwork and “story” behind their origin is one worth honoring the club in my hand. Does it make me a better golfer? Yes and no, it punishes me on my miss hits, but as I alluded to earlier, it teaches with instant feedback and makes me a better player by striving to correct the miss hit. Best vid yet!!! And thanks for speaking to the Miura product, would love to see more!!
This is Bob Parsons saying to TM, Callaway & Titleist, "So you want to compete in the Higher Price bracket do ya, well cop this boys"! I just love the way he looks the Big Boy manufacturers straight in the eye and gives them the Finger and completely messes with their heads! The other factor that causes these Irons to be so expensive, is the fact that they will be sold in very low volume as very few Golfers will be skilled enough to actually play them. Would I buy these if I was good enough to play Blades, "the hell Yes I would"! Though I would also try out Miura & Epon before I made a final decision.
I agree. I have never been a fan of PXG but these are stunning. Even the Gen 3 tours or Players model could easily blend into my bag. I just need to win the lottery now.
Tod Pharis , This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "golf digest hot list 2018 irons" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Aanraaster Particular Authority - (search on google )? It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering how to learn an effective golf swing method without the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my friend got excellent success with it.
The people that are buying these won’t be limited to clubs v. lessons. They will have enough lolly for all of the above. Lessons, clubs, trips around the globe to play top notch courses.
Remember getting S57 Ping irons because they looked so good. And I did want to put them on the wall - the other half stopped me even trying. As nice as they were, they had to go. The replacements - AP2’s - maybe not so good looking, but much better for my game....
I have the 747P and PXG wedges! Have been taking lessons and realized I wanted a set that helped me hit greens with a high launch and wedges around the thick greens at the Olympic
good thoughts there Simon ,I personally don't like PXG clubs but fair play to people that do ,I'll stick with my cheap and nasty forged Mizuno 919 tours .I do think more people should play muscle back/ players clubs that are true lofted ,my game went south when I got rid of my vr Nike pro combos and got Ap3's ,hated the off set, strong lofts and the crap sound ,if you have half a decent swing speed you can play anything .
The PXGs Will be very easy to copy. I know lots of machine shops near where i live. Just buy the same steel billet. Give the machinist 1 PXG head. Jobs a good un. They would make a few sets for less than the price of 1 club
I want more people to play the game of golf. That being said. We need to make sure that people understand that these are no better then anything else. We need to make sure people understand there place in the market. If I was new to golf and just heard of PXG. I would have seen the price and never got into golf. They have their place in the market. Just make sure we get people to understand that it is not that expensive to get into golf.
Simon, I like your wall analogue but I don't have an office. I put my collection which I source second hand in commemorative Open Tour Bags in my golf cave. #forged#blades#japanese #iveamajoraddiction
Mizuno t zoid true irons?????? Just saying. Mind you Wilson Staff V6 (which I have in my bag) and mizuno mp53????? Looks like everything feels like a mizuno 😂😂😂
The most impressive thing on a golf course is someone that can give the ball a pure strike not his clubs that just means hes rich PXg do look great so have a picture of them on the wall and play golf with the irons you have you are the quality of the strike trust yourself
Blades are traditionally lofted so typically a Bladed 7 Iron will be around 35deg, instead of the new types of GI Irons that have stronger lofts (7 Irons often around 30deg).
I disagree lol I tried about 8 brands when i got fitted and P790S came out on top.I walked in hoping to get mizuno irons but they ended up being the worst lol so fitting is so important. As far as the wall test I dont think you could go past the TW irons.
When I played rugby I could have bought £20 boots but I spent £100+.If you can afford it and it's your passion then why shouldn't you go out and buy the best equipment you can
I don't mind craft club manufacturers but it gives the mass production ones bad ideas about raising their prices. Clubs are way more expensive than they were a decade or two ago. I've been having to buy used. My current clubs would be worth almost $3000 new but got them for 25% of that.
This reminds me of an old saying that when you sit down at the poker table, if you can't spot the sucker then it's probably you. If you show up on the first tee with these clubs you better stripe it right down the middle and open with a birdie or your narcissistic ass is going to get crushed with ridicule and laughter.
I'll stick to mizuno blades, best looking, best feeling and always around average price while people still think your a pro because you play mizuno blades
Dont show case the clubs pn the wall thats just goofy i use aa complete set of grraphite firesticks like john daily used yes it would be nice for new set of clubs but im use to the graphite firesticks
I have no problem with the Ferrari class but the Ford Fusion should not be priced by the Ferrari price. Same principle to these irons but they seem to be pushing everyone else price up.
So a set 5i-PW would cost about £3200. That is not an outrageously expensive mid-life crisis compared to, for example, buying a new Porsche! Personally I prefer the look of the Muira blades or the truly beautiful Wilson blades but I am not (yet!!) a good enough ball striker to progress beyond my i210s
Guys we should stick up together and not buy any pxg , they make the market go higher for the main pga brands , as exemple titleist will raise the new wedge price by a good margin , when asked why they said goes the market is going that way . My personal opinion on that is pxg is a root cause and if companies don't raise their prices they will look like a "lower end cheap product "
I see this all the time people spending lots of money on expensive golf clubs and thinking it's going to improve their game but have never had a lesson in their life. The people whom can afford it will carry on buying them because the can.
I like your thinking, I play blades myself. However does it have to be $650 per iron? I could understand 50 to 75 percent more but a mid life crisis deserves some empathy, not a kick in the bullocks 😲
Yes there milled big deal, they put them in a cnc lathe punch some numbers in and stand back and watch. Pxg are nice clubs don’t get me wrong but your average player at the country club isn’t rocking pxg in there bag. Like he said once you get a car you learn how that car drives so driving it easy and comfortable, compared to getting in your buddy’s car and the brakes are sensitive and you look like you are a late barker
Good video, but i'm sorry but pxg clubs are all ugly (imho). I dont get it. I would not feel nervous if someone turned up with any pxg clubs because i would assume they had more money than sense and probably too busy working to earn money to practise golf. Certianly doesnt make me think they'll be too bright. Sorry, just cant help thinking it.
Jay Walk444 fair enough Jay! Definitely see what your saying, it’s the one guy that turns up with 10 year old blades and rusted sweet spot that are the ones that send chills down my spine 😅
@@SASGolf yep, the senior that hits every fairway and has a wooden shafted niblic in there because he cant bear to part with it that worries me. They might not set the world on fire but the moment you start to wobble they destroy you with steady boring sensible golf! Yes i know thats what we are all supposed to be playing but lets face it, wheres the fun in sensible golf!!
I play the original 0311 PXGs paid $1300 US for 7 irons. After they went on sale from PXG. But I would not pay full retail. I actually love the look. Looks unique.
Why would you want to put golf clubs on the wall??? Clubs are meant to be played not hung up! If you have the money then spend it but I'll still whoop that ass with my mizunos 😏😏
For this type of rape of your wallet, they do not even deserve any air time to show them. This is INSANE, if you like them or not. These are made for millionaires only. So how dare you even show these and give them free advertisement. And why be nervous if someone shows up with a set. Odds are they cannot hit them AT ALL. They just have enough STUPID money to buy them. They like to SHOW off their clubs, but can't find the fairway with any of them.
If people have the money, and it makes them happy. The only thing I hate about the uber priced clubs is that they seem to be raising the bar for prices all around.

Inculde new hip and spine also 🤣
In the bigger PXG picture nearly all of their staff players have dropped down the world rankings since switching to them.
I have tested them all and they're shit in my opinion
Great perspective on nerves caused by high dollar clubs! I can definitely understand this!
Blade irons are like samurai katana I don't know why but they are just beautiful
Remember getting S57 Ping irons because they looked so good. And I did want to put them on the wall - the other half stopped me even trying. As nice as they were, they had to go. The replacements - AP2’s - maybe not so good looking, but much better for my game....
play what makes you smile
THANKS FOR WATCHING GUYS! Please let me know your thoughts below, love a good discussion!
I have the 747P and PXG wedges! Have been taking lessons and realized I wanted a set that helped me hit greens with a high launch and wedges around the thick greens at the Olympic
rtmaui exactly that mate, can’t have both! You made the right decision pal 💪
Miura's are the nuts! looking forward to putting your Honma driver in my bag :-)
Ha ha ha spend 2 1/2 grand for a new hip so you can get more turn. That line alone is why I love Simon ha ha ha
Brian Rizza haha 😉
More Expensive ping blueprints same material. I like the look though. Would rather have Miura or fujimoto personally
I've got a set of gen 1 irons , there fantastic..
good thoughts there Simon ,I personally don't like PXG clubs but fair play to people that do ,I'll stick with my cheap and nasty forged Mizuno 919 tours .I do think more people should play muscle back/ players clubs that are true lofted ,my game went south when I got rid of my vr Nike pro combos and got Ap3's ,hated the off set, strong lofts and the

I never win anything. Hope i can win those homna clubs. I currently dont even have a wood or hybrid in my bag. Enjoying the videos, keep em coming
The Honma driver has changed you🤧 You’re too good for the normal priced clubs 😂
The PXGs
Will be very easy to copy.
I know lots of machine shops near where i live.
Just buy the same steel billet.
Give the machinist 1 PXG head. Jobs a good un.
They would make a few sets for less than the price of 1 club
I play with a good friend who has PXG irons and they are a work of art! Hes also good off 3 and gets the most of them.
Do I want some, yes!!
Really a work of art ? Made by a cnc machine, once you've played Endo and Miura FORGINGS get back to us.
I play off 2 and i can tell you i dont get the most of my mizuno blades.
I love my golf but I still want to enjoy my family, friends and alcohol so it's good quality, reasonable price clubs for me.
Clubs are only too expensive if nobody buys them
I want more people to play the game of golf. That being said. We need to make sure that people understand that these are no better then anything else. We need to make sure people understand there place in the market. If I was new to golf and just heard of PXG. I would have seen the price and never got into golf. They have their place in the market. Just make sure we get people to understand that it is not that expensive to get into golf.
Callaway-"We can make expensive premium clubs too!"
PXG- "Hold my beer"
Miura is already a piece of art and it won’t cost $5k for a set of irons. They’ve been handcrafted not milled on a machine to tolerances of a micron.
£2500, do you do hip fitting?
I just hope Mizuno don't release an ultra expensive line... I'm due a mid life crisis..
Still cheaper than a Porsche!
My mate has the boom driver,my 6 iron goes further then his pxg driver,iv offered him £250 for it he paid £800 😂😂😂
Dean Lahaye I have a 13 year old Ping Rapture Driver and I out drive all my buddies with their new expensive adjustable drivers 😂
Love the looks of these , will I could afford to buy them
Simon, I like your wall analogue but I don't have an office. I put my collection which I source second hand in commemorative Open Tour Bags in my golf cave. #forged#blades#japanese
#iveamajoraddiction
Donnacha Lyons awesome mate! Love that idea I need one as haven’t got an office or man cave!
Mizuno t zoid true irons?????? Just saying. Mind you Wilson Staff V6 (which I have in my bag) and mizuno mp53????? Looks like everything feels like a mizuno 😂😂😂
Douglas Miller v6 good choice sir
If I wanted a set of blades and money was no object I'd buy an old set of titleist mbs and have a Week in the sun with a filthy old brass!
The most impressive thing on a golf course is someone that can give the ball a pure strike not his clubs that just means hes rich PXg do look great so have a picture of them on the wall and play golf with the irons you have you are the quality of the strike trust yourself
Love your videos :)
Michael Hartig thanks Michael! Appreciate the support 🙌
Are blades higher or weeker lofted
Blades are traditionally lofted so typically a Bladed 7 Iron will be around 35deg, instead of the new types of GI Irons that have stronger lofts (7 Irons often around 30deg).
PXG = Pretty Xpensive Golf !
I disagree lol I tried about 8 brands when i got fitted and P790S came out on top.I walked in hoping to get mizuno irons but they ended up being the worst lol so fitting is so important.
As far as the wall test I dont think you could go past the TW irons.
"Or 2.5k on a new hip" 🤣🤣

A new hip🤣🤣🤣 How much for 2 new knees?
2 minutes in to the video and you've gone from golf snob to comedic genius! Kind of.

Dont show case the clubs pn the wall thats just goofy i use aa complete set of grraphite firesticks like john daily used yes it would be nice for new set of clubs but im use to the graphite firesticks
bob long if there working don’t change them!
People will buy them if they have the cash...because they can...not cause they can play 😂⛳️🏌🏻
I have no problem with the Ferrari class but the Ford Fusion should not be priced by the Ferrari price. Same principle to these irons but they seem to be pushing everyone else price up.

2 and a half grand for a new hip is that the going rate .?? You can get a nearly new one on ebay for half that price..
Ian rushes Left foot il have a look now for the future after my long drive career. 😂
Just be careful you think your buying an original and when it comes its a copy from China...
The Taylor Made new Hip goes 10yards further! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Should have made this video when you had the clubs in hand to test/demonstrate. 7.28 minutes of my life I can never get back. ????

I think it's golf snobbery that PXG are going for. I think I would go for a decent set of irons for about £1200 and go for lessons
SAS Golf for UA-cam golf day 2020.
Sorry but i dont agree, there is nothing in that iron that makes them so crazy expensive. This is the trend that is killing the sport
If above a 2 handicap and above 30 years of age you are actually shit at golf just buy off the shelf good second hand set and hack about with them
Good video, but i'm sorry but pxg clubs are all ugly (imho). I dont get it.

Nice bit of talking..
First
Have to say that I think these irons are ugly, just MHO 😱
its funny how you talk about a club you’ve never seen ..... just a fake opinion
