 Felly ydy'r ddeliw. Mae'r ddeliw hwn yn ffordd i'r ffordd golffchester gyda 1 iron. Rwy'n gwybod i'r ddeliw golffa ar y 1 iron. Rwy'n gweithio. Ond mae'n gwybod i'r 1 iron. Mae'n gwybod i'r gweithi'n gweithi'n gweithi'n gweithi'n gweithi'n gweithi. Felly mae'n gweithio. Mae'n gweithio ar y region 35-40 ym mhwy. Rwy'n gweithio. That is the ping, cast and three, one iron. Stainless steel cast cavity back. Get me back in focus and it's the smallest golf club iron I've ever seen in my life and I'm about to try and test it and see if I can hit a few golf balls, get some data and see how a club from 35 years old compares to the modern day club. Just how much has technology moved on. So the cast and three, one iron. First thing you've got to say is how good were the players who used this club. The ball striking must have been absolutely phenomenal because it is the tiniest profile I have ever put down behind a golf ball. At the heel end, it's barely an inch high. It gets gradually bigger obviously towards the toe end and this pointy look that it's got which I am absolutely love to be honest with you. But there's virtually hardly any golf club sat behind the ball so to find that centre consistently you've got to be a phenomenal ball striker. Once again sits back that little bit of, it's sat back off the hosel, off the shaft and I love the way it sits behind the ball, sort of frames the ball really nicely. I love that, others wouldn't. It's a very, very unique iconic design and it stands out a mile and it looks superb. Heel toe perimeter weight in again, cast club, stainless steel. I can't say a great deal about it. The question is going to be is whether or not an average golfer 40 years on from this club release, can I find the middle of the club face and it'd be good to do that on a couple of occasions. But then maybe more interesting what happens when I don't find the centre of the club and how much does performance drop off compared to maybe what would happen with your modern day UDI irons do they call them. Again we've got likes of the X forge now from Callaway that kind of thing. So I wonder out what we've got, what do they call the crossover irons from Ping would be there, sort of head to head we'd put it up against and I assume there's going to be massive differences in terms of sweet spot but shut up and let's see if we can hit the golf ball. Interestingly enough the one thing that's just crossed my mind as I'm speaking to you is the camera is about three yards off the line that I am aiming at, at the smallest one I've ever hit in my life and I'm just thinking do not hit that camera. That said if I did hit the camera the video would probably get more views as a viral video on YouTube so every cloud but don't hit it. End the video there. Found the sweet spot. Absolutely. Mail that. What a start that was. Right before I give too much away let it some more golf balls let's see if I can do that a few more times. I will no doubt not do that a few more times and I will find a bit more of that club face because that was a really good start and then we'll sit down have a look at the numbers and see I've got on with this absolute iconic golf club. I can't wait to hit a few more shots with that. Right okay so back to the office and how much fun was that and first of all I've got to say I'm pleased with my own performance. Let's just say that because when I took one look at that one iron I thought about as much chance of recording a few decent shots on that seriously I thought I had no chance whatsoever. So I'm relieved I'm pleased my ball striking with a one iron I've got to say I'm more than happy with. And the one iron itself oh my word how good does that look. You know I just I wish that I thought I could hit the ball that decent on a more frequent basis because I would put it in the bag. I love long irons and I love a driving iron. And the look on this thing the sharp edges it's just such an iconic club and I said in the previous video that I did about seven iron. Sorry the cast and one set of irons that I tested was that ping why did you change this iconic style. I just don't know why you did that. I assume through down to performance related issues because it just stands out on my it's iconic ping minute you see it on the shelf you know that's a pink club you're not disputing it and now every club looks very very similar. We've all morphed into one and that's such a such a shame I just wish they'd have kept that. We should start a campaign to bring back the old iconic ping look. Right anyway let's have a look at this data because the interesting one for me and what I didn't have not said as yet in this video is that at the end of all this I pick up a ping crossover. Which is the modern day driving iron from ping and through in a shot at the very end to see how that compares but let's have a look what I did first of all is some numbers up on screen of the one iron that I hit which like I said I was more than happy with. Average carry distance 180 yards spinning at 33 managed to get that ball up and out at 63 feet which believe me I thought it'd be literally thinning along the ground 201 carry because this thing it certainly ran for a bit low launch in 12.9 a 122 ball speed. Decent numbers I've got to say really pleased I think that if you go back to the video when you see the shots of that hit you'll see the difference between good and bad is quite obvious. With this kind of club and with this age of club you don't need to look down the fairway you only need to feel what has just happened in your hands because. Dawn with a big smile on the face I know I buttoned it I got it right out the middle and it was an absolute joy and pleasure to hit which I thoroughly enjoyed. And the very next shot I didn't do that and I certainly felt it in my right hand when the performance just wasn't quite there and I think that just highlights the major difference between clubs of old clubs of new. They were certainly you know again I've said it before so I can't keep repeating this but skilled players who could use this kind of iron. Small small sweet spot and I think again without repeating from the previous video that is the major difference it's the size purely the size the club head first of all. Let's have a look now when I'm talking about size ahead look at the ping crossover iron alongside the ping one iron. Can you believe the difference in size of those two alone? I mean one looks like it's a drive guy it looks like putting a driver behind the ball compared to this one iron. Huge chunky thing the crossover and from a confidence level I mean you stick that behind the ball and you think you know I can't miss I can't go wrong you put that one iron and you literally hold your breath and pray you put a good swing on it. So there's massive differences and in performance here we go let me just throw this one up on screen alongside these now. This was a four iron it carried 195 3000 spin peaking 96 absolutely went into orbit launching at 18.3 which is there is the going into orbit and a 123 ball speed. I mean to me honestly I had a really good shot I literally picked it up out the out the rack and I thought wow I haven't hit this for a while it absolutely flew out there. But yeah huge differences in performance level and I think a huge demonstration of once again where technology has changed to just purely say that you know kind of lofts have changed and strengthening lofts and all this nonsense is like come on this is a prime example. Of where life is a damn sight easy and I tell you now and it plays golf right now we have got it easy let me tell you we have got it so easy. So when you hit a bad shot make no excuses that's down to you because these clubs nowadays are so much more forgiving and helpful than a ping one iron. Breed away absolutely fantastic enjoyed every minute of testing it having it in my hands and like I said I'd love to see ping please bring back that iconic shape that you carried for so many years in the irons because it is such a good look. In my opinion watch yours anybody else's opinion on how the ping irons look is it just me or do they look far better and unique as well. Anyway that is the video done I hope you enjoyed that bit of fun because none of us are likely to go out and buy a ping one iron from 35 years old but I hope you enjoyed it. Comments down below yeah thumbs up that's the other one. I keep doing this wrong way around because I've noticed on everyone's videos that I remember all this at the beginning so clearly it's a changing trend on how you're supposed to do this bit but I'll ask anyway you subscribe if you don't already and that's me see you soon.
