Lynx parallax forged irons review how to#

It should be no surprise then Srixon were the fastest growing iron brand in the UK last year. They sit beautifully behind the ball, look simple and unfussy and feel every bit as good as any forged iron we’ve hit. Srixon have refocused their attention to the tour and better player market, and the new Z 785s are everything a decent player wants. Forged from a single piece of 1020 carbon steel 785s have laser milling between each face groove to maximise consistency and stopping power, particularly from the rough.īall speed: 121 MPH Launch angle: 16.9° Backspin: 5024 RPM Height: 29 YDS Descent angle: 43° Carry: 179 YDS Srixon keep MOI lower to improve workability (with more mass directly behind the impact zone), a request from their tour staff.

Because blades are so niche we’ve shown our five test models details and data only. Yet even with those strong lofts, shots launched and flew at a similar height, and landed at exactly the same descent angle as the blades – but with an extra 12 yards of carry. For example, 5mph more ball speed (in favour of the game improver models) can partly be explained by a 2.5° stronger loft. The data averages for our five blade sets (forgiveness rating 1) looks very different to the numbers of our game improvement (category 3) irons. Final word: learn with these and then move to a forged-iron with high workability.Ball speed: 116 MPH Launch angle: 17.3° Backspin: 6664 RPM Height: 27 YDS Descent angle: 45° Carry: 159 YDS Category 1 wrap up:

You can really work these clubs once you have learned how to swing different strokes/shots. But if you want to learn the traditional down the line Tiger or Mickelson type swing this is the set to practice on. I see golfer with wacky swings hitting it straight because of the wide club head. I really think all the new technology user-friendly clubs out there really don't teach one the fundamentals of the game. (That's all they are worth since they are at least a decade old, and Lynx went out of business.) If you believe in the saying 'it's the golfer not the club,' then I would recommend buying these clubs and using it to learn how to play. You could probably find a cheap set online for $20-$40. When you hit the ball dead center the club feels almost like hitting thin air, a feeling you want to store in your muscle memory. You really know when you left the club head open or slowed down in your down swing. But the club gives you incredible feed back. Any mis-hit will result in a hook or slice and/or loss of distance. You have to hit it dead center for distance but it feels so great when you do. Small, narrow blades, firm steel shaft, ver little offset and not so good a grip. I have the pre-cavity back model that are really hard to hit. Lynx Parallax is the first set of clubs I ever owned. I think I never forgot the fundamentals I learned when I was younger, and don't make many of the mental mistakes I used to make. I've been playing for 2 years now since I started again and my game has improved by at least 10 strokes. I played golf for four years in high school and then quit playing for six years and picked it up again.
