Emert, Network Engineer : University of Tennessee Medical Center : Knoxville, Tennessee 1. Ping eye 2 (best) 2. Callaway ( easiest clubs to hit on the market) 3. Tommy Armour 855 4. Hogan edge (if you can hit them) 5. Fuzzy Zeoller Kmart Dunlops specials But the previous answer is very accurate It must be how the club feels and depending on your level of play you may or may not have any difference in your game with any of the clubs listed above. Hit all of them as much as you can before you make your decision because if you make a mistake it will cost you alot of $ to change over to a new set. GOOD LUCK I just switched to EYE 2’s and it cost me alot to do. — Frank Demarco Raleigh, N.C. 27613
