Welcome to Fully eligible 2026GOLF’s new platform to provide you with real golfer insight into which 2026 equipment might be best for your game. To that end, we gathered six GOLF content creators of varying abilities and put them through the gauntlet of six full-bag rigs (from driver to bag!) at six major club manufacturers in Phoenix and Carlsbad, California. In this piece (below), Wadeh Maroun details the clubs he can’t live without from Fully Fit 2026, his TaylorMade P770 irons. You can browse our panelists’ complete dream bags for 2026 here:

Going into Fully Fit, I thought I knew what kind of gear was right for my game. Safe to say, I was very wrong, especially when it came to my irons.
A little history: Two years ago, I began a journey to become a true scratch golfer. I took lessons and completely rebuilt my swing. Before that, I played a cut and hit the ball, which created a lot of early extension and left my hand-eye coordination to dictate the ball strike – “sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe s.” At that time I was a 5 handicap. I needed help.
Then came the pivot.
The lesson plan changed my swing to be much less prone to early extension and more oriented towards hitting the ball instead of down. It seemed simple enough in theory, but the real-world impact was anything but.
This new approach created a massive problem from the 8-iron down. I began to notice a sharp divide in the north-south distribution. The ball wasn’t going where I wanted, and I had lost all the confidence I once had in my irons and wedges. For what it’s worth, I’m a high-launch, high-spin player by nature, and this combination was no bueno at all.
Enter the moment of truth: a fitting session in the Kingdom with Matt Simone.
Matt is the kind of editor who makes you believe in the process again, not just the end result. We started tinkering with lofts, following a theoretical setup that would help me cover the ball more consistently and keep it from running up. The idea was simple on paper: stronger lofts should soften the launch and roll enough to get my numbers closer to the target.
What happened next seemed like a revelation.
The adjustments began to hold in a way that surprised me. I had a feeling I hadn’t experienced in a while: I trusted my irons to do their job. The result was a real, tangible improvement in how I could control distance and direction, and, most importantly, trust the club to do what I asked without fighting my swing. It wasn’t magic, but it changed my relationship with the game in a meaningful way.
Fast forward to now: I ended up inside TaylorMade P770 Cuffand the arc of my journey has felt like a straight line to a better game.

In just three months, I’ve gone from 2-handicaps to 1. Swings feel less like a constant battle and more like a collaboration with the gear I’m using. The confidence I’ve gained isn’t about chasing a perfect number; it’s about knowing that I can pull every iron, hit my number, close it and walk away from a round without making three or four putts on avoidable mistakes.
Scratch is still on the horizon, but I’m closer than ever. And I really appreciate this progress in being intentional about my gear and trusting the process.
When I pull an iron now, I’m not wondering if I have the right model or loft. I’m looking at the shot in front of me, feeling the club respond the way I expect it to, and letting that confidence take over.
If you’re after consistency, I’d offer the same advice: start with gear that matches your movement, not the other way around, and give yourself room to grow into it.
