mizuno mx-100 vs callaway x-20

Also looking at these two sets of irons...I would also be interested to see which people prefer for the higher handicap golfer

I looked at these as well. Went to Golfsmith to hit them again and drop some cash and ended up getting the Mizuno mx-1000 instead of the mx-100. They were only $100 dollars more and the feel was way better. Fell in love with them the first swing. If you like the 100's you should definitely hit the 1000's.

I had X20 irons until Christmas time. Decent enough iron, only problem a little clunky out of rough. Also, not everyone likes the Uniflex shafts (flex between R and S).

Try them out and see if you like them. Plenty of people still play X20s.

Some of the X20s out there are a second-wave model: They have smooth hosel rather than bore-through. (Same thing with X18R model of a couple of years ago.) Haven't heard anyone say this was a problem.

Also, latest X20s advertise having the "new grooves."

Smooth-hosel X20 and X18R were made to compete at the $395 price point against models such as Cleveland TA7, some Cobra S3 sets, Ping G5 and Adams Idea a7.

I hit some Mizuno MX1000 irons, mainly to get the feel of a lightweight steel shaft. No better or worse than Callaway X20, just a different feel.
