    The R11 iron's are so good it is difficult to see where they can from these. The L79 Bladez are also excellent. G25's maybe? Extending the distance of the 3 iron in the G20 set and calling them G25 would be enough of an upgrade possibly to generate sale's, whilst still keeping the other two set's relevant???  Iron wise I don't think WGT are too far off though! Iron set's also take a bit of learning, and so any new set would need to have marked improvement's over the old. Do that with the R11 set (even Bladez) and with the score's being shot by some would be mad, no rush to do anything any which way IMO! As for my wood's not matching swing frequency wise I don't care about that on this any more than IRL!

    it seems very difficult for me to improve any of the irons especially the r11 irons.

    only thing i would like is more back spin from the 9iron a little like we get from a cleveland wedge.

    we dont want this game going any more easy

    love my R11 irons and have just upgraded to the R11 driver & 3 wood, from the G20's and yes there is a slight improvment in distance, and l've found the 3 wood if hit on to a green sticks a bit better too.

    I feel WGT missed it when they didn't replace the Ping I 15's with the Ping I 20's at the same time that they replaced the higher level G 10's with the G 20's.

    The R11 irons are very good.   I like the perfect spacing of 15 yards between irons as well.  It is true that the meter speed is not the same as the driver, I use the R1 which is a good bit slower but still the adjustment is worth it.

    I'm not sure that we need better irons.  I would go along with another brand with equal specs but we really don't need longer more accurate irons at this point.

    Thinking about it (not usual lol) with all the above in mind, and trying to be helpful:

    If the people that think there should be new high level iron's maybe could specify the attributes they would like, it might be helpful. As I said earlier looking at the three top set's I am struggling to see what can be meaningfully done apart from maybe lengthen the G20 3 iron.  As I also said I think that would still keep the other two set's relevant.

    New idea's are always interesting, but on this one I am struggling..................

    Have to agree here with Jimbog......

    I suppose the ultimate club would be the R11 set with G20 meter speed across the range......for me anyway!

    R11 irons with a meter like the R1 driver. ::drool::

    You folks really need to step back and think about what Wgt has done with this game.

    Number 1 it is Flashed based. Same brand of ball with same attributes but one costs more than the other because the meter is slower. Have you ever stopped to think why this could be possible? It is because the programmer of this game has slowed down the Flash for that particular ball, same with the clubs.

    There was a video on here not to long ago showing that there was this persons meter was barely moving, they searched the net and found out that you can control the frame rate the meter is moving.

    Search the net for how to slow down Adobe Flash Player and you will be surprised on the exact directions you can get to do it.

    Also there is one more thing to add to this to really get you folks to thinking.

    Why do you think the quote "Clear your cache" is the number 1 answer when the moderators answer your questions about your game being messed up. It is because they know that the files are going to fight against each other. You just changed equipment to lets say something new but your machine still has the old files that you are using, your new stuff isn't going to do what you expected. You get ticked off. Some of that being upset is your fault but most of it comes from the folks at WGT who have taken advantage of folks who are not computer savy and making you think that I am getting something better that costs more but in all reality it is the same thing you had before an update.
