A friend of mine who is a real Mizuno ho had a set for about 3 weeks. He hated them and sold them at a huge loss. They look and feel horrible.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I've been wondering this for awhile ... is there any rhyme or reason to Mizuno's club names?  (i.e., MP-58, MP-64, Mp-69, etc)

For the last few years the number in the 50s has been the more game-improvement of the set.

Not surprising considering his iron play stats are down this year.  The feel of the 59s is certainly different because of that titanium insert.

The "multi material" experiment failed. I don't know why Mizuno jumped on that bandwagon. The MP64s look magnificent.

Those look great, except for the shiny chrome.

No wonder Luke put them in his bag right away - his season needs a change.

Yeah I'm surprised they haven't come out with one satin chrome MP iron in the last few years, that would be awesome.

Im OK with them trying and failing.  IMO, if youre someone who likes the looks of blades but needs something that is a little more forgiving, the 59s are great irons.  I do believe though that it compromises the feel to a certain extent and if you need very precise distances from your irons, they may not be the best thing in the world.

I thought Luke played the 63s. And the place I work at has the 64s and H4 club heads for hitting. We also got some project X graphite shafts and 2 C-Taper shafts. The 64 head with the C-Taper shaft was awesome!

 913 D2 8.5* with V2 66g stiff shaft

 910F 14.25 with Diamana stiff shaft

 i20 17, 20, and 23 hybrid 

 AP2 712 5-PW with Dynamic Gold S300 shaft

 54 and 60

 D66

 Tournament Edition 1600

He has recently been playing the MP-59's.  He did use the 63's for a while.  MP-64's probably feel a lot similar to his 63's.
