Yeah I know wrong board but I figured I would get a better response on the OT. Which one do y’all use and why? I have been playing golf for about three years so I still consider myself a beginner. I probably need to get fitted before anything but was curious what the OT uses.

Depends on your swing speed. This is not a one size fits all question.

Nothing but hickory, like the legendary Billy Baroo.

Steel or you're a pussy

JK, graphite for slower, steel for faster. Get fitted.

I don't like the feel of graphite with irons.

That provides exactly zero information towards an answer to your question, though.

If there is a pro at your club, ask him, regardless of where you eventually go to make your purchase. No pro, then ask at the shop where you get fitted. If you are serious about improving your game, you really need to be fitted by someone with some skills in helping folks.

Wrong. They made iron graphite shafts for high speed players too. The MMT which Ancer uses comes in tour x flex and 125 grams to mimic the DG X100.

Get fit.
