Oh wow, this test was UNBELIEVABLE for so many reasons, it is quite possibly the best mid handicap test I have ever done! Just wait until you see how Josh, mid handicap golfer plays with these blades, and they aren't just any blades, these are the Ricky Fowler blades, the cobra REV33 irons. The big question that I have been asked so many times is Can A Mid-Handicap Golfer Use Blades? In this video my mid handicap tester Josh puts the REV33 cobra irons THE SMALLEST BLADES EVER to the test against his current irons.. his cobra forged tech. Should a mid handicap use blades? Can a mid handicap use blades? Who should use blades? Should you use blades? In this video you might find out! Which will go further and will this make you change up which clubs you game. Will the blade be as forgiving as the cobra forged tech? Will Josh ever want to hit blades again after this video! Well, there's only one way to find out, sit back and enjoy this, it is quite possibly the best mid handicap test I have ever done.
I CAN'T BELIEVE how this MID-HANDICAP golfer hits these BLADES!! HOLY MOLY!!

*What do you think of these blades? Acceptable for a mid-handicap golfer?*
@paulmcgee1867
@paulmcgee1867 4 месяца назад
Definitely, I would be a high handicapper if I played competitions and have many styles of irons I buy secondhand. I hit the blades or blade style MBs like anything else sometimes better as it helps to concentrate. Just have other irons available for the majority of the time.

I've started last octobre, playing second hand mp20 3-pw, and it just feels amazing when I properly hit them, terrible if i dont. Gives me an incentive to strike them true even tho my handicap could be lower, I hope it will pay off in the long run. I'd like to see you and Josh hit 3iron blades !

Cant understand WHY these days bladed clubs are set for stiff shaft options only. You get better feel off bladed clubs and the strike is purer. Offset clubs let you get away with bad shots. Its all down to the shafts.. a soft regular shaft in a blade when hit properly is sheer joy. I played with Wilson Staff Fg49s with regular R400 True temper steel shafts. They were awesome. Now got Takomo 101Ts with Senior Graphite shafts. I strike the ball cleaner with blades... I always struggled with offset clubs .. either hit the ball early or late..

I play blades, because I honestly prefer to see less behind the ball, helps me stay focused on the front of the ball. The other piece is coming from baseball I have a tendency to de-loft clubs slightly at impact so it helps me get the ball up to what you would probably consider "normal" for a hollow face. I do find my bad strikes have a higher dispersion, but I have less of them. I also play a fairly short course, so I rarely need to hit 4,5,6. 90% of the time I only hit them on the range because I still want to work on them. I can say some days I just stripe them and other days I dont think it matters what club is in my hand a toddler would beat me.

I bought a set of Mizuno 221 blades as a 10 handicap player. I never found them hard to hit and they went almost as far as my stronger lofted previous irons. After a year of play and practice, I strike the ball better than I ever have and I hit them about a full club farther than I hit the old clubs. I love the look and feel and couldn't be happier with them. Maybe not for everybody, but they have worked for me. I don't think blades are really that hard to hit. I think RU-vid hypes the difficulty too much.

I am a 22.6 and used to game Taylormade Stealth Irons (that I was fitted for), but I have just got myself a set of P770's (not fitted, second hand) and seem to be having a lot less lateral dispersion and I have only lost 10 yards of distance so far and they look so much better to me and give me more confidence of hitting them.

I wanted to try a set of blades and decided to buy a set of second hand Mizuno MP18s last year. I have been using PXG 0211s for the last couple of years and got down to an 18 handicap. Practiced with the blades hit them really well, something about the small head makes you concentrate on the strike. Played my 2 best ever rounds with the Mizunos of 80 and a 76. I found very similar results regarding yardage, despite the loft changes I was only a couple of yards shorter on most clubs but the stoppage on the green was amazing. Definitely worth a try if you’re curious. I got the Mizunos from EBay for less than £200 and they are mint.

I've had similar results and have my best round with blades. But, like he said, it's all about confidence. Once you lose any confidence with a blade on the course, those 160-205 shots really become mental with the small club head.

So about a year ago I could not break 100 consistently. Would shoot a 100-102 on average. At the time I was gaming TaylorMade Stealth HD irons. Gradually my game improved, and when I say I put the practice in, I PUT THE PRACTICE IN. Consistently shoot about 81-85 now, which if I had to guess would be about a 9-10 handicap. (I don't keep a handicap). I say all that to get to this point in the present day. Currently I am going back and forth between gaming my Sub 70 MB/CB set and my Takomo 301CBs. Interestingly I hit my Sub 70s just a smidge farther but not by much. The muscle backs in the Sub 70 set are 6-PW and I honestly have no problem being able to hit them consistently. Granted they are no RF butter knife. However with that said I wanted to give a big THANK YOU to Alex for all the helpful tips that I have incorporated into my game to get me to this point. Without Alex and a few others here on RU-vid I do not think I would even be leaving this comment about playing with blades and cavity back players irons. To be on topic and answer the posed by Alex in the video I hit the following clubs this far with my Takomo 301CBs 9 Iron-125-130 yards 7 Iron 145-155 yards 4 Iron 175-180 yards By no means am I a distance hitter, however I have improved a lot. Once upon a time 9 iron was my 100 yard club 😅. Cheers!

I play forged tecs too and have similar experiences to Josh. As much as the blades are lovely, hitting off mats on the flat does not reflect course conditions which may have rough, slopes and variety of lies. Also strike with the long irons will fail more with blades. Don’t let one good range session with blade go to your head. If you want to score properly, golf is hard make it easy for yourself. Would you rather give up 4-5 shots per round with ugly irons or more with beautiful ones?
@scoobynut
@scoobynut 4 месяца назад
I found the drop off in distance between the 'forgiving' clubs' distance, so 9-7-4 was 32-19 yards, vs the RF blades which 9 -7-4 was 26 - 28 yards the most compelling reason for choosing blades. On these (very limited agreed) shots, there seems a greater consistency in change of iron to length of shot in the blades. Of course, you do have to be able to hit the damned things....
@mackcity
@mackcity 4 месяца назад
I’ve been playing the RF Rev33s for about 6-7 months now. I love them, but you can’t just chuck them at a ball, the amount of side spin you can put on defies logic, so you HAVE to have a good swing path. But the distance control is perfect, if you know the distance and flush it, it’s guaranteed on the green!
@chrisduxberry8327
@chrisduxberry8327 Месяц назад

I went from the Titleist T350s to Mizuno 245s and seem to be having more success, alot more understanding of where my shots will go. They are not blades, but a sign forgiveness doesn't always mean it suits you, if you feel confident looking at it, that is all you need.

This video is pretty similar to my experience. Ultimately I'm playing blades from 7-PW and 4-6 are more game improvement. More loft equals forgiveness essentially so we can all hit a bladed wedge.

@susancrowther9998
@susancrowther9998 3 месяца назад
I think the blades look great despite the top line being narrower. The blades are for good and consistent ball strikers and if you can hit the middle of the club every time then they are great. However most handicap golfers are not consistent and this is where the distance varies in playing the irons. Also the loft will have an impact in the distance the ball goes. I think if you are a consistent ball striker then the blades are definitely the scoring clubs and I love the look of them. The other clubs top line looks chunky and does not give me confidence it appears as though it is too cumbersome and not a nice clean and neat look. Blades for me every time!

Doesn't this provide some thought towards what seems to be happening in the "players" irons with combo sets? Making similar size/top lines between a couple different club models. Ie: srixons zx5 -> zx7s. Where you would want the more forgiving longer clubs and the more workable club in the shorter ones?

As a mid-handicapper, I find my "game improvement" Mizuno 921 Hot Metal irons... unpredictable. F.e. I hit my 8 iron around 145-150y. Typically. But sometimes, when the gods of golf give me a touch, and my swing gets a bit better, once in a round - I hit it 190. I had shots even over 200y. Moreover, with their offset, I started to hit a lot of left misses. That is why I am in the market for smth "more pro". I have an old set of McGregor VIP forged irons. Compared to those, these RF blades are baby toys... 7 iron is 35 degrees and looks like this RF blade 4 iron. 5 is so small that it is hard to say if there is any head on this shaft... They were marked as "better player irons". For me, their biggest advantage is that they are dead straight. I don't know why, I hit them on the line almost every time. I just too often end up too short, I am not good enough for them. Not yet, not yet, but...

Irons like the Forged Tec , P790's are so prone to low spin jumpers with the lower lofts and thin faces , put Josh in some King Tours or T150's where you get a much more tighter dispersion with better spin numbers and are not as intimidating as blades and Mid handicap Josh turns into Low handicap Josh !!!
@buckmlb
@buckmlb 20 дней назад
I mean, really cool video--legitimately cool--the thing that's frustrating about all(?) these types of videos is that you're just comparing the clubs with the same number on the sole, when you should really be comparing clubs with the same (or as close as possible) loft. Like, Josh's 7 vs the Rickie 6 (or whatever)--now that's a fair fight, and actually more interesting, in my opinion. Because the reality is that most of us with distance irons carry 4 wedges (5, if you include the set PW), and when getting into traditionally lofted clubs, we get to ditch one of those.

Played blades all my 50 years of golf. Two years ago at 68, found a set of Ping Rapture J2 with graphite shafts. I love the purity of blades; design, looks, purity of strike. Hate the impure ones. Long story short. Haven’t lost any money in my weekly games in two years while all my mid single gang are struggling with their blades. Gotta admit their bags look better than my fat ladies. If you’re young and a reasonable ball striker, go with the blades and hone your swing. You’ll thank yourself when you’re 70 like me. PenguinGolf

Acceptable yes! i you like them , play them! but i dont believe they give the best result to many mid-handicappers! for me, big no! i need a club that inspires a lot confidence! i might be a high hcp though, im hcp 17. at the moment i play Wilson D9:s. and they are big and forgiving

I disagree I think he should use them, blades will improve your swing. If you can accept the I’d bad swing I think you will see an overall improvement. Honestly it may even improve guys strike with his putter.

That swing does not look like a regular "mid handicap" iron swing.... No wonder he can hit a bladed iron with such a consistent movement 👍🏻. The handicap doesn't tell the whole story of a player's swing 😉. Because of that I don't like the category "mid handicapper irons" etc.

If you hit a ball 100 yards with a blade, it won't do much better with a "forgiving" club. There might be a difference with small mis hits but big misses will be terrible with either club.

I don’t think Ricky ever actually played them. I’ve read he didn’t like what they made for him.

to me the blades just suit my eyes and are confident inspiring to me, maybe I am weird but I play better with blades. coming from baseball for 17 years, aim small miss small.

How one hits a particular iron is irrelevant. If you hit a 7 iron from one set further than the 7 iron from another set doesn't make it better. The critical stat is the distance between each iron in a set. Consistent distance between irons in a set is what is necessary.

So the RF irons are like going on a first date with a super model. The first date goes great and she’s all into you. Then…the second date she goes to the bathroom and she never comes back. Not that it has happened to me 😢

nobody over a 6 or 7 handicap should ever, EVER, use blades...they are not forgiving...waste of money and time unless you are a consistent ball striker.

A golfer with that quality of swing needs to forget forgiveness and start working with feedback. Advanced clubs are better in the bag. I know and respect the data, but playing hollow bodies thru the set for comfort is not going to help.

You were inconsistent with all of them. That’s why you’re mid handicap.

He is a mid handicap for sure! May strike his irons but the golf game is not just about that is it?

@@HowGoodGolf The golf game,especially, the handicap is about potential. Say your subject’s handicap number is 14 he has the potential to be a much better player than that. Your subject should have been a legitimate mid handicap player that does not have the potential to get any better. You know that as well as I. I have lost respect for you.
