However, my specs also call for the sticks to be a quarter inch short, and getting the swingweight right on a shortened Steelfiber shaft can be a challenge. Not only did I see near-immediate relief in my elbow, but I gained spin and 3-5 yards, and while some find them a bit boardy I’ve grown to love the shaft. To make a long story short, 2 years ago I developed a serious case of golfer’s elbow, and the solution I landed on (in addition to some physical therapy) is the Aerotech Steelfiber i95. I’ll post more of a What’s in the Bag later, but the bottom-line is I’m currently gaming a set of JPX 919 Forged irons, with copious amounts of lead tape throughout the set to put me at a swingweight of D3 across the set. I am instead relying on several fittings from the past year that have led me to the Frankenstein iron set I’m currently gaming. I did NOT get a fitting from Edel, or specifically in preparation for this test. If I can clean that up, I’ll be able to capitalize on what Arccos says is above average driving and putting, and in turn start shooting the consistently lower scores I’m after.įitting. Here’s the latest & greatest breakdown from Arccos on where I’m great and not so great, and as you’ll see, my approach game continues to hold me back. That consistency challenge is especially noticeable in my approach game. Put simply, it’s tough to be consistent without more on course reps. My scores tend to hover around that 78-82 range, but I’m also a threat to go lower or higher. As a result, for a guy who plays pretty sparingly I can still get it around halfway decent. ![]() I’ve taken a few lessons, I do plenty of strength training and speed training via The Stack System, and I have a basement putting green along with an assortment of training aids I use to do a lot of daily dry swings and drills. That puts me squarely at a 7 handicap right now. Put simply, I’m an absolutely obsessed golf junkie and have been for about 10 years now, with precious little time at this stage of my life to actually play golf. The bulk of time outside of work is spent running kids around to their many activities, from ballet to travel baseball, and when I do stumble upon some truly “free” time, you can bet I’m going to head to the golf course. My wife and I have been married for 12+ years now, and we’re very very busy with 3 little ones ages 5, 7, and 9. I’m currently at Carlisle Barracks in Carlisle, PA, and will move this summer to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. As I’ll talk about several times over throughout this test I’m sure, this particular opportunity is right up my alley and I’m beyond excited, and honored, to have been selected.Ī little bit about me: I’m on Active Duty in the Air Force and have been for the past 22 years. As for this testing opportunity, first and foremost let me offer a huge “THANK YOU” to Edel and MyGolfSpy. ![]() By now I suppose I qualify as a long-term member here at the MyGolfSpy forum, and let me say up front that if you are in any way new-ish to the forum: stick around! Get involved and immersed, and not only will you find some incredible testing opportunities, but some great knowledge and potentially even lifelong friends. ![]() Getoffmylawn’s Review of the Edel SMS/SMS Pro Combo Irons – April 2023
