  No lie i made a thread about this club and icon said lay up to a different distance. Buggyyy and i were like wtf kind of response is that. Some holes like 15 oly i have to use that club. But that's a poor excuse just fix the club i have seen it go 135 with full bs and go 158 with full bs in the same exact winds.

  The most expensive irons on WGT and the 8 is a joke.  Much like you guys its a guessing game with this stick.  Fix it WGT or let me take it out of my bag and put my old G20 8 iron in the bag.

  Yep, I avoid hitting the 8 whenever I can.  Very inconsistent, "mystery stick" is a good term.

  But it seems as long as there's a work-around for US to do, "lay up to a different distance", tweak our computer", "pause at the top of our swing", "use the practice rounds" instead of a driving range.....WGT won't do a damn thing.  We always are told to spend the extra time or change the way we play, day-in, day-out WE bear the burden of compensating for their mistakes.  Its getting very disheartening.

  I really doubt wgt even cares to be honest. Seems they can't fix the problem. Had a mp earlier on bethpage and guy conceded my putt. Tee off on 8 back pin 210 half bs and i fly in the back bunker with that spin glitch. This has been going on forever but still not fixed. But it's all good 'm losing interest in this once great game and won't miss it a bit when i'm gone.

  I will agree the 8 iron is a real incosistant iron, with full bs, at least I find. What I have found out about this iron with all the WTF moments is it is actually very consistant with but a tad of BS and goes the distance you expect with a touch of BS. The inconsistant results seems to occur with full BS, in my case at least. You have two choices, only do a little BS, or club up (7 iron) and hit accordingly. I have found that the 8 iron has always been one of the most picky clubs in the bag reguardless of the level or club using, who knows its probably on purpose lol.
