  As for your BP stop the screaming dude...The 2.0's took me a bit to get used to but once you get used to them you will find they are extremely accurate. The downside is if you miss you really miss.

  Hang in there you don't have to ding those irons every time. watch the wind if the wind is going from R to L then miss the ding on the left side, and vise versa. You will have to experiment to see how much off center works.

  Now if you have a small offset of wind say 10 degrees off 90 then sure play the wind and try to hit the ding

  I'm rather hoping for some new Callaway Razr's or a Diablo driver...

  Just saying.

  I hated these burners to begin with, even thought about going back to G10's but after a few days, got the hang of the faster meter, and love the accuracy.  They're awsome irons.  One thing to remember, on the long irons, the wind turns them more due to the higher loft, so you need to aim further left/right for say 25 mph sidewind with 3/4 irons than you would with say 7 iron. And also, if you miss ding on the wind side, shot will go extremely wide, but what i tend to do now if there's a sidewind coming from left to right, i'll miss ding slightly to left, and this compensates the extra turn you get with the higher loft.

  The ball may have something to do with this. HB3 pointed out in another thread that he thought the forgiveness was better than i15s and G10s. I disagreed but he was pretty sure. Trying to figure out why 2 players see different I went and did some fooling around with these clubs and the different balls. HB3 uses the WGT Legend ball and I use the Callaway s ball.

  Long story short, the WGT ball does allow these irons more forgiveness. Deviations on missed hits were much less severe with the G1-SD and Tour-SD balls than with the Callaway. (Not about to buy WGT Legend balls to see more.) He convinced me.  :-)

  holy crap these irons are awesome.  i've been playing w/ i15's so the meter speed isn't any change.  i'm amazed at how these clubs THROW the ball up in the air so high.  literally, right off the club face the ball just seems to jump into the upper atmosphere.  great clubs.
