Golf Iron Buying
Wanting some new (used) golf irons and need help?
I have about $300 to spend on some new irons. I am planning on buying used either on ebay or craigslist. I am a 16 handicap, but am moving and learning very quickly with the help of my local pro. Any recommendations on a brand or model would be great. Also can you tell me what the difference is in using graphite and steel (i figure you lose distance with graphite but gain height?). Thanks.
Your first step needs to be to go to a golf galaxy or similar place to get fitted for what you need. There is more that needs to be measured besides graphite vs. steel. You need to know your swing speed, grip size, plane angle, wrist to floor measurement (not height) in order to get the proper length, loft, lie, grip size, and shaft material.
The typical answer for graphite vs. steel is the faster your swing, the stiffer shaft you need. Steel is typically stiffer than graphite and is much more stable. If you are in between, thats where getting fitted helps you the most.
