I went from the G10's to the Taylor Made Burners and couldnt be happier. You will get better distance from the Burners, IMO. I seemed to hit the G10 really high but get a more penetrating flight from the Burners and at least 10 more yards. That being said the G10's are very good clubs but I think you could find even better ones right now. The Burners and Diablo Edge irons come to mind. Adams A7's like already mentioned too.
Plenty of options, though I doubt you'd see a huge difference from your G10s. As to the Big Bertha suggestion, though they are very forgiving and easy to hit, they may be a bit too "shovely" for you, for lack of a better word, coming from the G10s. You might consider Cobra S9 or FP irons, Cleveland CG7, Wilson Staff Di7 (very forgiving) or Ci7 (still forgiving, but more playable). If you're willing to look at used, I've gotten plenty of great deals from some of the used sites, where I didn't feel too much of a risk if the irons didn't totally pan out.
I don't know if I buy into it.It's a reference though.So if you do buy into it I guess Callaway makes the most forgiving irons out there.Has anyone looked into the clubs recommended by the Maltby system?
I have no idea whether it's a very reliable system to go by, but I know GolfGalaxy pro's swear by it.
I don't understand what's wrong with hitting the ball high. Do you play in really windy conditions? Hitting the ball high doesn't always equal less distance. I hit a high ball and love it. Of course, if you are playing in windy conditions and you struggle with the knock down then a high ball flight can hurt.
Unless you're just itching for some new sticks I wouldn't recommend buying something to replace the G10's just b/c you hit them high. That being said, if you just want new sticks then i'd recommend the a7os'. I won a set during the Holiday Cheer event and gave them to my father in law for Christmas. He started playing golf last year so he's just getting started. I'm not going to say that the Adams suddenly allowed him to shoot in the 80's or 90's but it's obvious that they are forgiving and long. They've helped his ball striking considerably and ultimately they'll help lower his scores.
I understand what your saying about a high ball flight,that's not why I'm looking for a change.I just want to see if there's a better set out there for me.I just feel that after 2yrs technology certainly changes and sometimes it may be a lateral move,but sometimes it represents an improvement worthy of a change.Don't get me wrong,the G10's are a great clubs,I just need to know I have the equipment that suits my game the best.That's what gives me confidence when I step up to the ball.
I think that's fair enough P95. I guess i'd have the lie angles checked and if you simply are in the market then i'd have to ask what you think about hybrid sets? The a7os' are great clubs, but perhaps you're like me and just don't like the look of a hybrid set at address, and if that's the case then there's a whole nother slew of choices out there.
How do you like your X-22's? I've never hit Callaway's,but I hear nothing but good stuff about them.
