Thank you for the compliments. I did have an R11 for a few weeks this year, but it just seem to feel as solid as the SuperTri. Yeah, must be nice to not have an off season! Someday ill make it to somewhere warm.

Thanks. I rarely buy irons that have not been custom spec'd to me. Being only 5'6" it seems that the standard equipment is always toe up with irons so I need to get them flat. Thanks though...should be an easy sell with the new rocketballz irons coming out that have been getting some really mixed reviews, unless they are light years better than the 2.0's, I can see the 2.0's being the shovel of choice for us mid cappers.

Thank you. Let me know how the 2.0s and the I15s compare. I have never been much of a ping iron fan, as I always felt they felt to lite in my hands. I bet with the latest iron shaft tech this is not the case any more.

nice setup man!!! how do you like the burner 2.0s? i was really looking to replace my current iron set with either that or cobra s3s

Thank you sir. I have to say that I love these irons and they feel as solid as my retired Cally X Tours with rifle 5.5's. I only have one large bucket range session with them and I had no problem hitting them. They feel a smidge lower launching with these shafts but the distance iron for iron seems to be 10+yards longer. For instance I usually hit my 5 iron 180-185ish on the course and the Burner 6 iron went the same distance 9 times out of 10. I understand that the lengths and lofts are longer and stronger than standard, but who really cares? As long as I have peace of mind in knowing what yardage my balls fly, I am good. Even the off center hits flew pretty straight and with decent distance. The Burner 3 iron flew as far as my old Big Bertha 2 iron and felt a lot hotter. All in all I am very happy with my purchase and now I have to get some rounds in early spring to really dial these in for scoring. I was so comfortable with my yardages with my Callys...some learning curve is going to be required and I am looking forward to it. I say go for it and just get the right shafts for your swing type.
