    RojoYoda:

    Love the lvl 90 R11 set but I think I will give  these a go at some point. As it's been said before having the same swing meter thru driver to wedges is a major plus point.

     

    @chris5214 or anyone else who's tried these, could you tell me what the yardage gaps of these irons are.

     

    Many thanks

    same as Burners:

    PW - 125 yds

    9i    - 135

    8i   -  145

    7i   -  160

    6i   -  175

    5i   -  190

    4i   -  205

    3i   -  220

    Cheers..sounded like they were very odd yardages reading an earlier post. In reality they're not bad at all, suppose it's just personal opinion.

    Thats because THEY ARE BURNERS but with a different name.

    yeah. i think pretty much everybody knows that .. been playin' Burners since L79

    yet .. although the performance is  the same, u have to add slightly differently for full bspin with L71 Nikes compared to Burners .. took me about 8 hrs of practice to figure adj distances

    alright fellas .. errmm, yeah, picked them up .. like a sorry sap i couldn't resist .. pitiful

    have only played one round with them on front of RSG .. managed a 29 & from what i could tell, knowing the Burners the way i do, they play EXACTLY the same, besides of course the slightly slower mtr ..

    long irons, 3 & 4 i .. again, exactly the same as Burners .. same everything .. same precision, same high trajectory, same stopping power, little forgiveness .. but the 12pm mtr is nice given that the rest of my clubs, drivers & wedges, are also at noon mtr wise .. when i missed ding, i was very close on the line ..

    these are gonna be gulped up i'm sure ..  

    will also get R11's at lvl90 .. i always keep 2 sets of irons .. i've dumped my lvl83 G20's now .. haven't played with them for very long time .. haven't considered playin' with 'em anyway since i don't like the slower mtr anymore ..

    my verdict on the Bladez .. thumbs up

     

    LOL. I knew you wouldn't be able to resist. Happy swinging with the new Bladez.

    heheh .. yeah, what can i tellya .. i'm weak ..

    gotta say though, after many hours of practice i've played my 1st ranked round on the front of CCC for long time and managed 29, something i haven't been able to pull off on that 9 for the longest time .. 

    i know the R11's are better .. but the 12pm meter through all my clubs sure helps gettin' on ding a lot more, which makes quite a difference ..

    I traded in my burners for bladez as well.  Same clubs but 12n meter and i love them.  I wish they had been available before i bought burners, as a more expensive option, but oh well.

    Once i get to 88 and buy the r11 driver, all my clubs, including cg wedges, will be the same speed.  I've been struggling lately with the ding.  Late on burners and early on driver...this is a good solution for me.

    We'll see what happens when I hit 90 regarding r11 irons.

    Yes Alcaucin, I was wrong.

    I meant Burners.

    Please, can anyone put here the distances of the R11 Ironset (+90), please?.

    To compare with the new L79.

    Thanks a lot.
