Hello everyone, I have a quick question regarding a possible reshafting of my irons. I'm currently playing a set of mx-23's that my dad gave me and they have the stock graphite shafts. I wanted to reshaft with steel but i also wanted to change the lie of the clubs 2 degree's upright. Is this actually possible as I'm assuming you'd have to change the angle of the hosel? How much do you think it would cost? and is it worth it to just sell and buy a custom spec set of 25's? Thanks for your help!

MX-23 3-pw
MP-T 54*, 58*Newport TeI3/anser

that won't be a problem at all... luckily you were given a set of mizuno's which are forged, cast irons can be bent but many can only be bent a single time and some have a very tough time being bent at all.

your forged irons can be bent as many times as you want. I'm not sure on the cost of the procedure but with a reshaft and lie adjustment its definately a lot less than a new set of mx 25's... my brother just got a set of 25's, they are very very nice clubs but very steep in price as well.

Most shops will charge between $5-8 to change the lie angle per club and re-shaft for around the same price, so around $10-$16 per club, with a discount on a complete set.

I've seen shops do this for around $70-100 for a 3-PW set.

Thanks for the help everyone. Just to update, i've called around to get some estimates and most places are quoting me close to 40 per club. Instead of paying 320 to get a set adjusted, i'd rather sell my set for a little over 300 and pay for a set of 25's fitted for free. Also, fitter at my local range said that manufacturers make two different iron heads, one for graphite and one for steel. is that true?

    • I kind of like this interpretation especially if you think about it the unplayable rule would probably put you in a better spot.  using back on the line releief.  
    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.
