Wishon 560 MC.....

ode

Those who have used them...I'd like to know your thoughts....got a set cheap on buzz from mikew with tt black gold shafts in R flex and man are these $....easy to hit and forgiving, especially on toe hits, which tends to be my miss.

The shafts are stiff mother's for an r flex....but they appear to be a great fit for my game....have always preferred a low trajectory and with these I get that....flat is probably a better description.

What else do you guys compare to these and any other thoughts are appreciated....they have slightly resurrected the ho bug and I will be building a set of Maltby TE's with the same shaft.

The old stand by I have fit and built about 20 sets over the years. More forgiving than many forged designs. But not as soft as say a Swing Science Pro Forged also a players cavity. IMO anytime you are dealing with a Dynamic shaft profile you will have stiff tip and high bend point.

Of the same type of shaft profile but 110g I prefer the Apollo CWS .355 and constant weight which is a better quality thru a set than a .370 descending weight set.

scotts33 I did notice the Maltby TE test 7i felt softer, but it was not a direct comparison, as I had a px flighted shaft and a softer grip on it.

I am playing the 560s now -- this is the first year they have been in the bag for me. I like them, but I don't LOVE them. I like the thin topline on the 560s, but I don't find them any more or any less forgiving than other irons I have played. But then, I'm not sure I've ever played an iron that I loved that much more than another.

I had them, LOVED the way they look, but they were not that forgiving in my opinion. I hear that a lot, but I don't really understand why people think it to be honest. Maybe they just were not a great fit for me.

I played the Maltby TE for years, didn't really like them per say, but they were hard to do better than at the same time. I tried to get rid of them for a long time. Now I have Cally X hot Pros which are a really good package of forgiving, versatile, good looking and I could be happier, but there is no need to change them. I really need new grips moreso than anything, but I have been lazy.

Weirfan I have 3 clubs still waiting on grips FFS, I got them shafted about a month ago. Grips go on tonight, I have to play tomorrow in a work tourney, so that inspires a little reason to do it.

There is a large difference design wise in an undercut design vs. a players cavity. Not comparing apples to apples IMO.

The Wishon 565MC is a better feeling iron than the 560MC was. Both are not undercut designs with lots of weight in the sole of the club design.

It was inferred in my OP that these should be compared to other forged CB's....was curious what others have played in this category, in direct comparison to the 560,s, component or OEM.....the blade size of the 560 MC to the Maltby TE is quite similar...so I suspect they will be close in forgiveness.

I can def tell a difference in forgiveness between these and the Maltby STi,s that I was playing.....but I still consider the 560,s forgiving, but not Uber forgiving. It helps that I have been playing fairly consistent golf this year....no really low rds. but I've sniffed par quite a bit this year.
