The length of the 3 iron is a little puzzling to me. For the people who buy the complete R11 set and those of us who have bought the R11 hybrid you have 2 clubs with exactly the same rated distance. The R11 3 iron and the R11 Hybrid are both rated @ 225yards. That's a little redundant and confusing. I realize that the hybrid works better than the 3 iron from the rough but from the fairway they should be about equal. And as the iron set can not at this time be broken up you have at least one club that you won't use. If they did change the iron sets so you could mix and match then you could drop the 3 iron add the hybrid and still be able to carry 3 wedges. But until they do that which looks like now it is never you are stuck.
Question for those who have the r11 irons. Do they hit posted club yardages pretty close with full bs like the 2.0 irons do w/ lvl35 z balls or do you have to add a few yrds to distance to allow for bs like did with g10s? How do you like the punch 103 shot?
Borntobesting, you do make an excellent point about paying for the complete set with 2 225 clubs in the bag. Especially when the 3w punches so nicely from roughs like 40/50. I like my R9 driver hitting into the wind. Seems like 70% of time as legend, your driving into a headwind and the R9 is rarely if ever out driven into the wind. I play a hook shot around the trees on beth 2 and ccc4 so the added height of r11 isnt a big draw. Ill get the irons in few months whenever I get to level 90 and perhaps a new driver will come out by christmas or first of year.
WGT, Im completely on board with you guys making a profit. You provide an excellent service and are in business to make money, so I understand you selling these clubs to everyone and not just legends. Personally, I wish you would unlock all clubs for those who have made legend tier. For example, unlock the clubs at LVL 90 or when you turn legend (whichever comes first) rewarding those who reach the highest tier. Then you'd have more players playing more ranked rounds aggressively trying to turn legend to get the good stuff which in turn would increase your revenue in clubs and balls.
(psst, just a thought wgt, if you did unlock everything to legends ,Id already purchased lvl 92 putter $24.00 lvl 88 driver $16.95 and the $29.95 r11 irons for $70.90 total and then upgrade next time you come out with new stuff. As it is now, by the time I get to lvl to buy the current offerings, new stuff will be out and I'd be buying that instead and you'd lost that opportunity to get $70.90 in revenue if could purchase the items now. You guys have an effective profitable business plan, but seems like you may be leaving $$ on the table)
