Kevin,

I would not like it personally because I think there would be too much “massaging” required to make the distance gaps sensible. Also, for me, the difference in the looks of the three clubs is too great. But that’s just my opinion – if you think it would work for you, give it a go and let us know how it works.

Best,

Matt

High Matt, What’s your opinion on a combo set of the 3 sets of irons

Matt,
Yes I was fitted for the senior flex clubs in February 2021 by an experienced club fitter. I used them for over a year and then went back to regular flex when I bought the Ping G425 set. Recently I switched back and like the senior flex clubs overall but am puzzled about the distance loss. I’m still sticking with them but may demo the TEE irons to see how they compare.

Larry,

Were you fit for these senior flex shafts? Anytime you switch equipment without a fitting – going up or down flexes, changes models, etc – it’s possible that it will have negative, unforeseen consequences.
The distance gap between the X725 and E725 irons is primarily attributable to the loft gap.

Matt, The distance loss seemed sudden from the switch from regular flex to senior but I knew I was losing distance with the regular flex over the years because of my swing speed declining. But would you expect switching to senior flex cause additional loss of distance? I was hoping for the opposite due to more solid contact. Getting back to the TEE clubs after reading your reviews I would probably be happier with the E725 for the style of iron I’m used to playing and the stronger lofts. Do you feel the extra distance from the E725 irons is simply from stronger lofts or something else?

Larry,

Have you been tracking your swing speed over the years? Was the distance loss sudden when you changed clubs?
The X725 is not a “pure” distance club as much as the E725 is.

Matt,
I recently switched from regular flex Ping G425 irons to senior flex KZG which I was fitted for 4 years ago. I’m more accurate and consistent with the KZG irons but lost 1 club in distance going to senior flex. Is that common? I’m wondering how the X725 clubs are for distance?

Looking at the longer irons to replace my old crossovers, tested and was sold going the 7 iron demo, so bet the set of irons.
Loving the ease, forgiveness and consistency with the 5 iron, but the stock graphite stiff shaft doesn’t suit me in shorter irons so whacking in some Steel Fibre regs same as old set, big difference in swing speed and distance between the 2. Keen to see how they stack up with same shafts against the G430`s.
Very forgiving heads is the key takeaway, and can still shape teh ball, drawing more so.

Jack,

These irons launch high and produce a bit of extra spin, which are typically things good for slower swings but they can also work for medium speed players who hit it too low. I don’t think 85 MPH is slow – it’s probably on the lower side of regular flex – but if you hit it low, these might work well.

Best,

Matt

By slower swing speeds what is your criteria? My driver swing is only 85 mph I’m 70
Thanks
