A set that straddles your handicap is best if you aren't actively trying to improve.
Like the Srixon ZX4, Mizuno JPX 921 hot metal, Callaway Apex DCB, Titleist T300, Taylor Made M4, and Ping G425.

Why in the world do they have the Zx4 as lower handicap than the zx5? That makes zero sense

And Z forged more for high handicap than zx7? They drunk? the graph doesn’t make sense

Yeh they have Srixon way wrong

Should be

Zx4

15+

Zx 5

10-15

Zx7

0-9

Z forged

0-3

Those P790 are a very forgiving set lots of help,and tech their for higher handicappers

I hate how clubs are recommended by handicap.

I agree. My iron game ranges from shite to serviceable. Everything else is why I’m a 6. When the irons are working, I can get down to 3/4.

All true, but there are 39 sets listed, from just one production year. And it's far from an exhaustive list.
The goal is to at least point you in the right direction.

If irons are your strength, you can try irons with lower handicaps listed as theoretically, they require more skill or have less forgiveness.
Handicap is probably the best way to group it.

Good luck. Ordered new clubs around Valentine’s Day and was informed Thursday they would not be getting in until June 16.
