Thomas AT 505 Irons Helps you Hit the Bulls-Eye


Thomas AT 505 Irons Helps you Hit the Bulls-Eye

By Robert Lewis
If you can't aim a rifle, how can you shoot your target?
Golf manufacturer Thomas Golf believes the key to a successful golf game begins with the ability to accurately aim and align yourself to the pin.
Thus Thomas, a custom golf manufacturer, has launched the Advanced Aim & Alignment AT 505 irons series. Having played 36 holes of golf with the Thomas series, I didn't need to read the press material to understand why these clubs made great sense. The irons come armed with a line indicator (see picture) on the top plane of the heads that make it easy to align both your club and stance with your target.
An accurate shot begins with how a golfer is aligned to his target. Golfers tend to give little thought to how they are aligned to their target and wonder why they spray their shots all over the fairway. The Thomas irons gave me a huge advantage as the target line helped me achieve proper alignment of the club and body. The indicator is level to the ground and parallel with the target line. The target line on these irons is no different than having a target line on your favorite putter. Most of us wouldn't want to go on a green without a gauge of alignment or without easy understanding as to where the center spot of putter resided.
Thomas is treating irons and woods with the same philosophy as a putter.
Traditional golf clubs deceive and confuse us and make it difficult to achieve proper alignment. If you look at the head of a traditional golf club you will notice:
1. The slanted top of an iron points 20° to the right of the target line.
2. The leading edge of an iron is curved and often blocked from view under the ball or grass.
3. The curved face and top of a wood cannot provide an accurate reference indicator for aiming the golf shot.
The AT 505 set includes the 3 through pitching wedge. They also offer the 1, 2, GW, SW and LW. Thomas Golf offers their clubs in 10 different shafts.
Arriving in five days after ordering, my AT 505 clubs came custom made with quality True Temper shafts and were built with the exact lie angle and club length I wanted.
Lacking the hype of a big name spokesperson or flashy endorsements, Thomas Golf is an example of a small manufacturer delivering a superior quality product with sound technology.

Choosing a Set of Irons That Will Improve Your Game:

Choosing a Set of Irons That Will Improve Your Game
 
Among their set of irons, those numbered 2 through 9, many golfers can tell you which one is their favorite. It might be the 7 iron. It might be their 5 iron. It is rarely the 2 or 3 iron. For most golfers, they are simply too difficult to hit well, consistently.
As with the driver, it is all a matter of confidence. Somewhere in their history as a golfer, that ‘favorite’ iron became a confidence club. They hit it well, consistently, or made a great shot with it once, and right then, THAT iron became a favorite.
Can you, as a golfer, get to where you have confidence in ALL of your irons? Maybe even your 2 or 3 iron? Yes, you can. Here’s how.
Your choices start with choosing between cast or forged irons, often better known as perimeter weighted or ‘blades’. What’s the difference?

HYBRID IRONS? WOODS?

New AT 705 Hybrid Irons from Thomas Golf
Whatever you call them Hybrids are becoming increasingly popular. I've
said before that the 2 iron, 3 iron and 4 iron are about to fade out of
existence for the average golfer.
This weekend I had the opportunity to test the new 3 iron hybrid and 5
iron hybrid from Thomas Golf ( www.ThomasGolf.com ). These hybrids are
far easier to hit than their iron counterparts. They get out of rough
much easier and they just generally feel more solid.
I highly recommend hybrids for all golfers even low handicappers.
Hybrids are just a better club for the job. Golf clubs are changing
every year. The makeup of the average set has changed. When I started
playing golf it was normal to carry only two woods and two wedges. Now
carrying three or four of each is common. You're going to see a lot
more hybrids in the coming years. I'd bet that most of our
readers will be carrying hybrids within the next five years.
