11/30/2023 0 Comments Lynx parallax forged irons reviewLynx use Effective Energy Transfer technology (EET) on the club face of the Predator. The Sky Sports Analyst signed with Lynx at the tail end of last year, and when we met him in a tower that spins around giving 360 degree views of London, this was his favourite club. The Lynx Parallax is the driver being used by Nick Dougherty. And that sums them up, doing things their own way rather than just following convention. Thinking outside of the box, I found myself up at the top of London’s BT Tower for the Lynx launch. Normally these events take place at golf courses or driving ranges. They introduced the Browning 500 Series to counter that effect…….We went to Lynx Golf launch event back before Christmas. The Browning 440 was a marvelous club…as you say off the fairway!!! But, in the rough the club went right underneath the ball. What a mess that design was! Just terrible…and never sold thru…as well it shouldn’t. The Spaulding Executive was just too far ahead of it’s time…great club!īut, the #1 weird club goes to the Slinger…your #1 choice. The Ginty was the first modern Utility club. He also was one of the best designers in the golf biz. I was the Sales Manager of Stan Thompson golf company for several years and worked very close with Stan. I speak with Nat Rosassco, former owner, of NorthWestern golf at least every 7 to 10 days and he holds Pat Simmons as one of the best club designers of all time as well. Pat Simmons of Tiger Shark fame (and others) is the most underrated club designer of all time! His stuff was marvelous and all original. I think all the readers as well as the golfspies would love to learn as much about these past designs as possible. If you have any you think we should include or have any additional info about the clubs listed feel free to post your comments. Hope you all enjoyed a look back at some of the craziest irons ever made. So what did his famous “Ginty” patent actually mean? “It means the Son of a Scottish brood that keeps getting into trouble only to easily find his way out of trouble!” For more info on Stan Thompson click here. * NOTE: Stan Thompson was an interesting guy and a well respected designer. And if you did not have the exact lie to match your swing could cause issues with the toe or heel diving down at impact. But as you can see could cause some serious digging issues. Well these irons which were designed out in LA by Stan Thompson were made to capitalize on that same concept. You might remember the popular Stan Thompson woods with the unique sole design. Extra weight added to the toe keeps the center of gravity where needed and also keeps the club head square at impact, resulting in straighter shots.” With the help of computers, we designed a unique shape we call the `Bull Nose’ which extends the toe weight out far enough to balance the head without creating an elongated appearance. These skids are tapered from the leading edge toward the rear of the club head, raising the sole above the ground without raising the leading edge off the ground. Latitude Irons also give the golfer an added patented design feature of dual skids on the sole. Forward-face progression creates a hitting surface 20 percent larger than standard and 5 percent larger than over-sized irons. Placing the hosel behind the face eliminates the occasional `shank,’ creating forward-face progression. Fila Golf has developed this new iron using a patented design feature. “Never before have so many game improvement features been built into one club. I will let the then Chariman of FILA Golf tell you a little bit about these 1994 released set of irons…and take you back in time like you were there for the original launch:
