I recently purchased a used set of Mizuno MP 32 Irons (4-PW) and I absolutely love them. I've always used game improvement cavity backs (currently own a set of Taylormade Rocketbladez, which I also love) but I feel more confident with bladed irons, especially at address.

The stock shafts, Dynamic Gold S300, don't seem stable enough (if that makes any sense). I was wondering which are the better shafts for launching the ball into a higher trajectory. I normally hit the ball nice and high but with the Mizuno's, my ball flight is much lower, so I'd like to reclaim that high flight with my blades.

Any help would be appreciated.

Reason ball is going lower is probably more due to the center of gravity being higher and closer to the face on a muscleback.  RBZ irons are the complete opposite.

To answer your question, KBS Tour 90 shafts are designed to launch the ball higher http://kbsgolfshafts.com/shafts/kbs-tour-90

Dynamic Golf shafts are designed to launch the ball low. TT Dynalite shafts have a high launch.

Focus, connect and follow through!

That makes sense. Thanks for the info.

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      By Ty_Webb ·

      How come the marked shots on the picture add up to 366 yards and the label says 325? Are you playing it at 325? In any case, that hole is narrow with a capital NARROW. If those woods are lost ball territory, then I think you hit from the tee whatever club is accurate enough that you'll be able to hit the fairway "most" of the time. That could even be a wedge potentially, especially depending on how restrictive the trees back near the tee are. I might seriously consider playing this hole as 8 iron 6 iron or so. There's more room up by the green than the fairway, so save the longer club for the second shot.

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By mdl ·

      I took a big step back last season in terms of scoring. I felt I'd plateaued and committed to another round of lessons and working on meaningful swing changes. Went from a 7.9 to an 11. Back down in the 10s. Just starting to see some of the feel of improvement show up in scores. In fact a few rounds ago I had my best round, both score wise and ball striking and putting, in a while! Shot 79 with a mental breakdown finishing bogey-bogey-bogey on a tough three hole stretch where I go scared of the water blowing up my 70s round and yanked three drivers in a row after pumping it long down the middle all day and then hit two of three approaches scared-yanked away from  water as well. Feeling like I can put some 70s rounds together this season!

      Considering I only played a single round of 9 holes last year and only a handful of rounds of 9 holes in the 6 years before that. Now playing 18 hole on average ever 2 weeks this season. Definitely improved. Not by a drastic amount, but definitely improving. Hitting more pars and bogeys. Driving straighter etc. Practice helps! :D

      And yet, unlike a politician the only one we con are ourselves.😄  Having said that, the stories we tell ourselves are also the most potent, good or bad. So,  for me the answer is always a resounding "Yes!".
