Yes!!! Enjoy it. Fittings are so much fun. Have a blast, soak in the info, ask lots of questions, trust your fitter. So stoked for you.
Looking forward to hearing about it! Expectations vs realityā¦
Fitted into the mizuno jpx 921 hot metal pros with kbs 115 tapered lite shafts 2Ā° right minus 1/2 inch length causing 1.5Ā° upright. Super stoked, Iāve never seen my ball flight like it does off of these.

Glad you got great results!! Lower scores ahead!

Hey Mike look up Golf Specialtees in Pittsburgh. 2nd generation builder and fitter. Can do it all
Still waiting on my new toys to arrive. Ordered 6 October. Covid is having a material affect on supply. Hoping to get the new irons and hybrids this weekend.

I was fitted for Mizuno JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro irons last week and ended up with the stock shaft and standard lie angle. This was after trying about 5 different shafts, 1 degree up angle, and the regular Mizuno Hot Metal (larger) club head.
These clubs were 20 yards longer than my 15-year old Callaway X-Forged irons with their Dynamic Gold 300S shafts. When my 7-iron started carrying 140 yards, (10 less than normal) that was the straw that broke the camelās back so Iām working on my technique (with lessons), working out, and got a hot-faced iron with lighter shafts. Iām looking forward to having more fun in 2021.

Friday excitement just as I close the work laptop for the week. Just took call from the club fitter. Collecting new irons and hybrids 08.45 tomorrow. Woo hoo!
Then Iāve a comp 11.12. Oh, what to do - play the new clubs with practically zero practice, āacclimatisingā or distance calibration. Or play old clubs? Good problem to have

I think this comes down to expectations and your personalityā¦ if you put up a bad round cold with the new irons will you still play them? If it might shake your confidence in them, get acclimatedā¦
Personally, Iād play them, but I acclimate to new clubs pretty quickly.
Will - there is no question Iāll be playing them. I can stand a bad round. Just as likely to suffer a bad round with current setup 
Iāll report back

Enjoy them. Score well tomorrow!
Iām counting down the days until the kids are back in school and I can road trip to Nashville to get fit for my putter.
Iām not sure if this is the year I fully overhaul my bag or if Iāll just keep doing piecemeal replacementsā¦ might just go hybrid and three wood (and possibly a wedge update due to groove wear)
Update on the 3+4 hybrids I was custom fitted October 2020 - after going through swing changes Q1 this year I canāt hit them. Trying to close the face requires so much mental intent itās what I imagine wrestling a snake could be like. Even setting up with the face closed doesnāt affect the slicey outcome.
I notice there are 3x interlocking adjustment rings at the hosel. How safe is it to experiment with the adjustments vs going back to the fitter vs maybe the clubs donāt fit my swing any longer? Now loading up YouTubeā¦
As I write this it sounds completely bonkers. Just got to rotate my L wrist (rev the motorbike) to close the face?! Tried it with a bucket of balls. Find it excessively difficult.
They are there for you to adjust themā¦ nothing wrong with itā¦
Iād worry more about your path if you are slicing the ballā¦ try to get your swing more inside.

I would play with the hosel adapter and see what happens. I think a more closed face and upright light can help although every club still needs a decent swing.
I was struggling with the slice (driver) and push cut (irons) earlier this year. As a former hooker I tend to start holding on to the club too much in fear of the left. I hit the range (and my backyard net) working on making a good turn and releasing the club. I would exaggerate practice swings setting up with the clubface wide open, super weak grip and making a swing to get it square. Itās helped as I have been killing the driver, woods and hybrid. The irons are still a work in progress though.

Not sure my swing path is the issue as following my swing changes this year Iāve gone from slicing to hook. To be sure I need to get some 240fps video footage. Likely my old tendencies to over rotate, lose form, transition too quick with a weak/cupped L wrist are involved. Did some research today. Those clubs are top rated with many āthese are so easy to hitā comments! Take those comments with a good pinch of salt obviously.
Oh yeah and definitely be checking the hosel / Optifit settings when I get home. Hoping to find a silver bullet
What are your recommendations?
Iām 30 and started golfing 3 years ago. I bought Strata clubs off Facebook marketplace at the time and they have served me well, but the 6 iron and 3 wood are broke and itās about time for a new set.
While Iām about a 20 handicap and not very good, I purchased a Mevo+ and built an indoor simulator which Iāve been using 3-4 times a week. Itās hard to get on the course with 4 kids.
Anyways, in an ideal world i could get fitted and purchase a new set, but unfortunately I donāt have $1500 set aside. However, I also donāt love the idea of getting fitted and buying online.
What would yāall recommend? What are some options?
Iād love for these clubs to last me the next decade- so Iād like to do it right the first time but money is a factor. Iāve also considered going Takomo due to the affordability and rave reviews, but that would entail skipping the fitting process.
