I wanted to start off by saying I’m currently gaming on my grandfathers 2011 Taylormade MC Tour Preferred irons as a 14 ish handicap. My low rounds are in the mid-low 80s, my high rounds are mid 90s. I really like the feel and workability of the irons. These irons were absolute hell when I was just getting started, but now that I’m more comfortable over the ball I’m starting to enjoy them a lot more. Currently they have KBS tour regular flex shafts. As I’ve played longer, my swing speed has started to increase and when I went to Edwin Watts, they told me I should consider something with a stiff shaft to decrease my shot dispersion and keep my misses tighter. My miss is usually a pull or a pull-hook.\n\n**Here’s my question: Should I upgrade my regular shafts to stiffs on the old clubs, or save up and upgrade to totally new irons?** I’m aware that if I choose to re-shaft the old clubs, I’ll also have to get new grips and everything. I wouldn’t mind getting into new irons, and I know newer irons have more tech in them and could potentially help me lower my scores, but I am extremely partial to my MC TPs.","date":"2026-01-28","sentiment":"neutral"},{"productId":"prod_162","source":"Reddit","sourceUrl":"https://reddit.com/r/GolfGear/comments/1khxeoj/titleist_or_die/","author":"u/viresartesmores","rating":null,"text":"Driver\nTitleist TSR3 10° @ A1\nGraphite Design AD UB-7X\n\nFairway Woods\nTitleist TSR3 15° @ A1\nGraphite Design AD UB-7X\n\nUtility\nTitleist TS3 19° @ A1\nGraphite Design AD IZ-95X\n\nTitleist U505 22°\nGraphite Design AD DI-105X\n\nIrons\nTitleist T350 (5–PW, AW)\nTrue Temper Dynamic Gold X100\n1° Weak, 1° Flat\n\nWedges\nTitleist SM9 Jet Black 54° F, 58° D\nTrue Temper Dynamic Gold S200\n2° Flat\n\nPutter\nScotty Cameron Special Select Newport 2\n33” BGT Stability Tour 2\n2 × 40g sole weights\n\nBall – Titleist ProV1\nGrips – Golf Pride Tour Velvet ALIGN Tack\nGlove – Red Rooster “The Saddle”\nShoes – Travis Mathew “The Ringer” 2.0\nBag – Vessel Sunday III\n","date":"2025-05-08","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_162","source":"Reddit","sourceUrl":"https://reddit.com/r/GolfGear/comments/1pj99sy/building_a_new_bag_thoughts/","author":"u/wattyaok","rating":null,"text":"WITB Full Bag Rebuild — Looking for Performance-Based Feedback Only\n\nCurrent Handicap: 6\n\nSwing Direction: In-to-out\n\nTypical Miss: Pull-draw (starts left, curves left)\n\nTransition: Fast\n\nSpeed: Driver \\~115–120 mph\n\nHeight: 6’0”\n\nWrist-to-Floor: 35”\n\nGoal: Optimize full bag for consistency and tournament play\n\n⸻\n\nBag Setup (All Black with Baby-Blue/White Ferrules)\n\nDriver\n\nTitleist TSR4 Blackout – 9°\n\nShaft: LA Golf DJ Series 65X\n\nLength: 45.0”\n\nReasoning: Low spin, anti-left head paired with a stable, low-torque X flex to control closure rate for a pull-draw miss.\n\n⸻\n\n3 Wood\n\nTaylorMade Qi10 LS Black – 15°\n\nShaft: Mitsubishi Kai’li White 80X\n\nReasoning: Low/low profile keeps the left side out of play; pairs well with fast transition.\n\n⸻\n\nDriving Iron\n\nTitleist T200 Utility Black – 19°\n\nShaft: HZRDUS Black 105 (6.5)\n\nReasoning: More forgiving than a hybrid for an in-to-out path; anti-left flight bias and stable tip section.\n\n⸻\n\nIrons (4–PW)\n\nTitleist T100S Black Limited\n\nLength: +0.25”\n\nLie: +0.5°\n\nShaft: Project X 6.5 or Dynamic Gold X100 Tour Issue\n\nReasoning: T100S delivers tighter dispersion and neutral bias.

I've seen various points of view from different instructors online and also various tour pros have different positions at impact. Patrick Reed's trail heel is glued to the ground, Rory's is close, Adam Scott is starting to lift and pivoting into his instep, then JT and Colin Morikawa have their trail heels lifted way off the ground but don't allow their hips to spin out. \n\nSo, what determines how much trail heel lift one should see for their swing? Will guys with flatter swings who hit a draw tend to keep their heels more down, while those who hit a cut as their stock shot let them fly up (an Athletic Motion Golf video I believe mentioned that the heel lifting is a steepener). \n\nI've done both. I can keep my trail heel from lifting and sometimes do the drill where I keep a wedge under my heel until impact. I've also lately been letting it fly similar to JT. Does it matter as long as I'm still keeping my trail knee from spinning out prior to impact? Is there a preference from the golf coaching community?

However, some users report durability issues, with the glove potentially failing after a few rounds. Overall, it's a premium glove with a mixed reputation.","body":"## TaylorMade Tour Preferred Golf Glove: A Comprehensive Review\n\n### Overview\n\nThe TaylorMade Tour Preferred golf glove is marketed as a premium offering, designed to provide exceptional feel, grip, and performance on the course. You'll find it available at most major golf retailers. This review analyzes user feedback from various sources, including Amazon and Reddit, to provide a balanced perspective on its strengths and weaknesses.\n\n### Performance\n\nThe most consistent praise for the Tour Preferred glove centers on its feel and grip. Many reviewers, like D. L. Williams on Amazon, rave about the glove's superior feel, with some even comparing it favorably to the Titleist Permasoft. Users appreciate the enhanced connection to the club, which can translate to improved control and shot-making. The glove's ability to provide a secure grip, even in challenging weather conditions, is another frequently cited benefit. Some users, like u/robbiecobb on Reddit, highlight the glove's performance in humid conditions, although the results are mixed.\n\nHowever, the performance isn't universally positive. A recurring concern is the glove's durability. Several users report that the glove wears out relatively quickly, especially for those who play frequently. This is a significant drawback, as it impacts the overall value proposition of a premium glove. u/MErc0814 on Reddit reported blisters on their ungloved hand, which may be related to the glove's fit or material.\n\n### Pros & Cons\n\n**Pros:**\n\n*   **Exceptional Feel:** Many reviewers praise the glove's soft, supple feel, which enhances the connection with the club.\n*   **Superior Grip:** The glove provides a secure grip, even in humid or sweaty conditions, allowing for better control.\n*   **Comfortable Fit:** Users generally find the glove comfortable to wear, contributing to a more enjoyable playing experience.\n*   **Premium Materials:** The glove is constructed from high-quality materials, which contribute to its overall performance.\n*   **Positive Initial Impression:** Many users are immediately impressed with the glove's feel and performance upon first use.\n*   **Trusted Brand:** TaylorMade is a well-respected brand, and many users trust their products.\n\n**Cons:**\n\n*   **Durability Concerns:** The most significant drawback is the glove's potential for premature wear and tear, with some users reporting that it doesn't last long.\n*   **Price:** As a premium glove, the Tour Preferred is relatively expensive, making its limited lifespan a more significant issue.\n*   **Inconsistent Performance:** While many users love the glove, others find the performance inconsistent, especially in terms of durability.\n\n### Verdict\n\nThe TaylorMade Tour Preferred golf glove offers a compelling combination of feel and grip, making it a favorite among many golfers. The glove's premium materials and construction contribute to a comfortable and secure feel, enhancing the connection with the club. However, the recurring reports of durability issues are a significant concern. The glove's lifespan may not justify its premium price for frequent players. If you prioritize feel and grip above all else and don't mind replacing your gloves more often, the Tour Preferred is worth considering. However, if durability is a primary concern, you might want to explore alternatives that offer a longer lifespan. Consider your playing frequency and budget when making your decision. Overall, it's a good glove, but the durability concerns prevent it from being a top-tier recommendation for all golfers.","aggregateScore":8.5,"prosConsFromReviews":{"cons":["Durability Concerns","Price","Inconsistent Performance"],"pros":["Exceptional Feel","Superior Grip","Comfortable Fit","Premium Materials","Positive Initial Impression","Trusted Brand"]},"totalReviewsAnalyzed":296,"sourcesUsed":[{"name":"Amazon","count":4},{"name":"Reddit","count":292}],"generatedAt":"2026-02-19T23:22:16.053Z"}}
