Tom Wishon Golf Technology 550c Irons
I’ve been having the problem of late of hitting the ball too high, and thus losing distance. Additionally, I tend to get quick with my downswing, which often causes a push or a hook, depending on how I release. To combat these problems, I’ve built some new irons using the Tom Wishon Golf Technology 550c forged irons. Chiefly, I selected these clubheads because they have less offset compared to my current 770CFE irons. For the shafts, I put in True Temper Black Gold stiff shafts, soft-stepped one club (in other words, 3-iron shaft into the 4-iron, 4-iron shaft into the 5-iron, etc.). These shafts are heavier than my current TT GS75 shafts, to help reduce getting quick on the downswing. I put on Wishon Golf V-Series oversize grips with 4 wraps of tape. I swingweighted the clubs to D-6.
My specs:
| Iron | Loft | Lie | Length |
| 4 | 24° | 62° | 39.25" |
| 5 | 28° | 63° | 38.75" |
| 6 | 32° | 63.5° | 38.25" |
| 7 | 36° | 64° | 37.75" |
| 8 | 40° | 65° | 37.25" |
| 9 | 44° | 65° | 36.25" |
| PW | 48° | 66° | 36.5" |
| AW | 52° | 66° | 36.25" |
Other notes: I made the clubs 0.25" longer. It turns out I mis-measured my wrist-to-floor measurement, so the clubs needed to be a bit longer than my last set of irons. The lie angles shown are before I use I lie board to determine what the specs really need to be. As shown, they are 2° upright.
