Re: Do Any TGNers play SL Irons ???
I fit and make SL clubs. I do playSL irons - Wishon Sterlings. Sand wedge to 5 iron. I use the Sterling 5 hybrid as a 4 iron within this set. Sterling sand wedge for full shots. I use 58 degree traditional wedge for sand shots, and short, touch shots.
I highly recommend fitted SL sets, I am an example of using the best fitted equipment for oneself to get the most out one's game. I carry a 3.7 index on a course that really resists scoring, down from a high of 5.6 with my TLT type set over last seasons play. My course has a lot of uneven lies, even in the best parts of the fairways. One size, one swing makes a lot of sense, and it's helped me. I have an open mind and tried them, liked them.
I have been playing golf for nearly 40 years and I have been able to adjust to one ball position for almost all standard shots. So you can teach an old dog new tricks, but moving from TLT type set, certainly eases some shock, as compared to switching out of traditional irons that one has used for a long time.
My average carry distance is 156 yards with a seven iron. All SL irons are 36.75" long. My average iron swing speed last year was 82 mph.
