Say in heavy winds like at SA...95 out, I'll punch the PW (103) with no spin (into wind) will leave me right around the hole..sure the Cleve might get there, but a mis hit with it is worse than a miss hit PW punch.
This is what I'm getting a LOT out of from this thread.
If you ask Chris, I like to play various shots into greens, too. Stop some. Run some up a little. Just whatever feels like it has the smallest margin of error and the highest reward simultaneously. He used to give me a lot of crap about playing a yard or three in rollout until he realized I could consistently do it. But, that was up to the L59 Gs.
Since, I've gone much more to throwing darts. And, my game hasn't felt the same. I'm a better player, but this is likely the inconsistency with a lot of my rounds. Definitely something I need to work more on as I figure out these irons. I'll likely stick with the R11s for awhile longer for sure. The original question was about which would be more consistent with missing dings and scoring. But, it sounds like both sets will be....
I just need to learn all the spin combos of the R11s. And, the R11s will still have some firepower in reserve when I need it over the G20s. Sort of like learning to caress a billiard ball into the side pocket instead of just ramming straight away shots at the back of the pockets.
