Hey Guys, I’m Alex Etches and I’m a golf professional and product reviewer. If you don’t know me, I started playing golf from 10 years old, turned professional at 22 in the UK, and have been creating entertaining and informative golf content on different platforms for the last 10 years. My home is now AUSTRALIA and I hope to take you around some of the best golf courses from down under.
On this channel, you can expect many fun reviews and videos. From testing out some crazy golf clubs to the latest product releases which include TaylorMade, Callaway, Cobra, Mizuno, Titleist, and many more...
I also do lots of traveling and will bring you along the journey with me. With Golf Vlogs from the UK, the US, and many other locations it never gets boring on tour with #TEAMAL!
Anyway, enough about me - If you’re new to the channel, or have been with #TEAMAL for a while, write a message down in the comment section and say Hi!

I switched to blades as a 20 handicap. I kept hearing that nobody can hit blades. Ch-AL-lenge accepted! If anyone wants to become a waaaaayyyyyy better ball striker.... buy blades! I dropped my handicap 10 strokes from a winter hitting range balls and learning how to be accurate.

Here’s a physcological aspect to blades as well, they make you be more disciplined about setup and your swing whereas game improvement clubs allow you to be sloppy and so you tend to be. When the great big bertha driver first came out my mate lost distance and accuracy compared to his old driver because he kept trying to ‘hit it’.

Everyone should hit blades. The fear is all hype. Give them a chance at any level and you will be able to use them and love them. If you want to hit a 7 iron 180 yards pull a 5 iron. There is a reason they have been around since the start of golf and will always be around in the future.

You should put them in the bag Alex. I have Miura 1008s and an 18 handicap and could play better with more forgiving irons but I love those little feelings I get when I take off the head cover, when I line them up and when I hear them hit the ball. It's just as great as my feelings for you when I see you've posted a new vid Alex.That's worth a few shots a round all by itself.

I am so glad I am an amateur golfer, 15 years ago I had been struggling with my game playing the latest and greatest improvement irons and was at the point of giving up. I had a long chat with myself and decided I either give up the game or just enjoy it! I went back to Japanese blades, went from Mizuno to Miura to Honma and now to Vega. Guess what I'm back to a mid single figure HCP and have enjoyed my golf ever since my stop or go decision. As an amateur why do I need to be as low a handicap as possible (I comfortable knowing I will never play Augusta National) when I can play clubs like this and enjoy the feel, quality and beauty of pure blades, even if sometimes they go sideways!

I just received my set of baby blades today. Immediately took them out and hit them and all I can say is wow! They remind me a little bit of the ping blueprints in that they are so solid at impact. They feel like sledgehammers. It also brought my launch angle down a little bit and ball speed up a couple of mile an hour compared to my T100’s.

I’ve played blades since I started in the mid 90’s. A few years ago I switched to the AP-2 irons by Titleist. My hcp dropped 5 points, but it doesn’t quite feel the same. Now I’m thinking about getting a nice set of blades. That’s the way golf is meant to be played.

@iamshack Жыл бұрын

Same here. Played blades through high school and afterwards, until about 2014, when I joined a club and bought a new-ish set of AP2's. Recently picked up these MB 101's and couldn't be more excited. Have only played one round with them, but hit some of the most beautiful iron shots in a decade.

I went from a 25 to an 11.5 handicap playing Cleveland blades given to me by my brother who is a pro. I learned on these clubs and when you learn to hit on blades, it makes you a better golfer. You don’t rely on tech to save your shot. You learn to be conservative and to hit for purity over power. When I show up to a round, someone usually comments on my “butter knives” but I won’t play anything else.

Mr. Miura says the infamous "baby blades" are his most forgiving design. Counterintuitive but he points out that the small, dense, perfectly balanced clubheads dont deviate as much on mishits... cut through turf on slightly heavy strokes, retain ball speed on thins and heel/toe strikes. Also encourages focus on the strike... thoughts?

Enough of this talk about blades being only for low handicappers! I learned to play with Palmer the Deacon blades. Yes, the sweet spot was the size of a dime and you knew when you hit off center. That’s the kind of feedback you need if you want to improve your ball striking. I was looking for a set of MB-101s during the spring lockdown until I saw the MC-501s and bought 4-PW without even hitting them first. That thin top line is so enticing. I love ‘em!

playing Miura (and Mizuno) for the past 15 years.... not for everyone but once you are dialed in... control, shaping shot, etc... you can't go into anything else. never think about forgiveness of a club because you want to push your technique to make the best out of these irons... just not into play sloppy and the club will fix... If you put the time, learn how to play them. amazing irons.... enjoy them
