  I would love to see a set of irons with 3.5 meter to fill the gap between the L-85 Nike's and the L-100 Nike's other than the Max Meter set. I have the L-97 Nike's but I'm still using the L-85's due to preferring the slower meter.

  Something that would help would be the occasional offer of any equipment five levels earlier on offer for a stated period. Say 7 days.

  This, I believe has been done in the past and it would be helpful to me and many others who need to obtain the benefit of longer distances and higher lofted clubs to compete with those who have this equipment.

  There are several different choices, but the 3.5 best fits mu reaction time. It was uncomfortable for my time spent with the 3.0 meter L-97, which are excellent, but mostly one pixel quick. I can identity with your frustration.

  Another thought might be to change your ball to a slightly slower one. This could make the 3.0 Nike level 97 irons play more like the level 100's.

  Agree with that. The level 90 Nike balls (meter speed 4) and the level 90 TM irons (speed 3) make a good combination for me.

  I use the L97  Nike's and pair them with the lvl90 Platinum ball....... works fine for me.

  Hi y'all, so 2 questions: I am assuming a 3.5 meter speed is faster than a 3.0 meter speed, right? Also, when better golf balls are purchased do you only have a certain amount of hits on them and then you need to purchase more or are they good until you lose them going out-of-bounds?

  3.5 would mean the meter is slower,,so that you could hit the ping easier..and all golf balls have a certain amount of hits outside of the "unlimited" wgt rock

  Higher the speed, slower the stroke, Steph. 3.5 meter is slower than 3.0.

  The 'durability' you'll see on the ball. The higher the number, the more durability. Most balls are 2.5. I don't personally know the number of whacks to a 2.5, but I'm sure someone here has figured it out. And yes, you'll see next to each ball on your playing screen, (right side, next to volume) it says 'hits' .. it gradually goes down, and when it reaches red, then runs out, the balls are auto loaded.
