Bending irons

Filed under: Equipment,Miscellaneous — Joey @ 3:36 pm

This afternoon, I completed the construction on my new Tom Wishon 770CFE irons by bending them to my specifications. The lofts of the clubs were very accurate, so I didn’t need to adjust the loft of the irons at all. I did bend the irons upright, in general, needing about 1° to 1.5° bend upright to achieve my desired specs.

My specs:

Iron Loft Lie Length
3 21° 61° 39.5"
4 24° 62° 39"
5 27° 63° 38.5"
6 31° 64° 38"
7 35° 65° 37.5"
8 39° 65.5° 37"
9 44° 66° 36.5"
PW 49° 66° 36.25"

Tomorrow, I will take them to the range for the first time to hit balls and get an initial impression.
