    I’m a circa 20 handicap, but reducing quickly! Had my 101s for around a month now. Can’t praise them enough, when you strike them pure it’s the most beautiful feeling in the world - like butter! They have added 15/20 yds to my distance through the bag and I’m hitting more greens - and fairways when I use the 4 iron off the tee. For less than £500 custom fit and delivered (incl import tax) they have to be the best value iron on the market!

    I’m not in the market for new irons, so my wife tells me, however I would seriously consider Takomo if I were.
    Mesh did hit some nice shots and I think we will see the Takomo a bit more over the next few years. Met Mesh for the first time on Wed evening as I teed off with my Son just before him. I did remind him to tee off behind the markers 😂

    Custom sets were backordered. So I bought the heads which in stock and got KBS shafts off EBay. They came in a week and I took 'em out last Sat. They strike like butter and more importantly kept my thins and fats on the fairway. Won my 3some for the 1st time ever on their maiden voyage!
    Being a rubbish golfer, one of my surprising strengths is shot shaping (punching out around, under and over trees). They were very shapable to me (Fyi I vary my swing path instead of manipulating the club face.)
    Hope this helps.

    I watch a lot of golf content an just a tip from my opinion to grab attention would be to focus more on the clubs that ur testing at the beginning would be (a run down of what takomo is as a brand what they do, a discription of what type of club they are who they’re for and what they look like and the customization that they have at hand) just so the viewer knows if the product could work for them an that way ur video will give them the best learning opportunity and can focus on that and just enjoying ur content an personality at the same time! Good job on this video👍🏽👍🏽

    I'm trying to figure out if the 101' or the 101T fit me better. I typically shoot between 92 and 100. I a in my early 70s, in good shape. I drive the ball well, pretty straight about 200-220. My short game stinks and my putting is lousy. I hit my irons straight for the most part but suffer with the occasional grounder. I sometimes will come out of the shot as they say. I sometimes swing too hard...On par 4's I am very often just off the fringe on 2 shots then I can mess up a chip and three putt. I am often in great shape after the tee shot then capaple of hitting a grounder with the iron, so I am unsure. I am leaning towards the 101 but I am working hard on my game so perhaps the "T" might fit me. Just not sure.

    • @GOLFDAYS
      @GOLFDAYS  10 місяців тому

      love the insight, i would love to be any help but i do not have any knowledge in expertise. i would say 101 irons will ultimately give you more distance for longer but again from the sounds of it you are more than capable to play the 101t irons. either would be great.

    These clubs are Made in China and are complete trash. Yes, they sound amazing, but they don't add distance or control. They're exactly the same as my old clubs EXCEPT, they bend at the head after about thirty to fifty swings. So far, it's the PW and the 7i, but I have no doubt that this is simply because those are my two most used clubs. Given the same number of swings, I have no doubt that the other clubs will start bending backwards at the hossel, or however you spell it. This was done with clean, ball first contact shots. Clubs were extended one inch and one degree upright.
