Bending irons
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.
