Just hit one more club or remember the loft instead the number on the sole.
I don't like the long irons in Eye2 but you won't have that problem...........

      I can't hit anything longer than a 5 iron with any consistency or height! I have used Eye 2 irons and yes, I have to go up a club on each shot. I was just lusting on the fantasy of PING making brandy spanking new ones. 8*)

          I have a guy complaining of low trajectory and lost of distance. He has a bunch of issues with his golf swing but the major one is lack of the snap through the golf ball. In short, he has no release of the wrist through impact. Too stiff trying to maintain direction control. No snap, no elevation. Sometimes he complete the wrist action way before he should have release it.

              Yep - that move (or lack thereof) kills clubhead speed and launch angle.

                Nice! I considered the Alpha, but decided to go with the new one. I miss those days when I could actually load a stiff shaft. 🙁

                    I have the same driver....Alpha 815?, R flex, but have yet to hit it.
                    The adjustable weighting appeals to me, especially if I go to a shorter shaft.
                    Therefore, I really am excited about the potential / options this provides.
                    But, no guaranty.

                      I have an old set of FG17s that I still love to hit 🙂 Someday I will reshaft them with something current.

                      Hmmm ... I still have two John Reuter, Jr's around here someplace.

                      Release without a doubt the 455 is old too, I still like it though.

                          Same here, however, with my life changing injury 16 months ago, I could not hit the db455 like old times.
                          With my age, a come back will be highly unlikely.

                              I have a 455 head sitting on my work bench. Keep debating to shaft it or sell it.

                                All the Hos on this forum (including me) are collectively whispering, "sell it... sell it..."

                                    Well I'm always happy to help a fellow club ho. I can post some pics if anyone is interested. I believe it is a 10* with a minor mark top of the face.

                                    I still play a Geek FS2 and Purefit V450 now and then. A little more distance loss on off center hits than newer heads but still much more forgiving than 90s vintage stuff.
