Hey guys, I got a job in Korea and will be moving there at the end of this year... Golf equipments in Korea is really over priced and I'm looking to change my golf clubs. I usually shoot around low to mid 90s and about 140 yards with my x - 24 7 iron.. My game has improved over the summer and i finally broke 90 2 month ago... I love my x -24 but I just want more feedback from my club... also want something less forgiving. I got a natural mini fade swing. I haven't hit any of these clubs other than MP 53s old version MP 52.. It felt great. I'm leaning towards MP 53 or X forged (this is $500 at Amazon =) ) but price isn't a big factor... I'll be going to golf shops around Blacksburg/Roanoke (VA) area to test clubs. Also one more thing.. should i get club fitting for these sets??? I'm really comfortable with my x-24s shaft length and I know Mp53s are quarter inch shorter than my x-24s but shouldn't be a problem...
which one would you buy? I would love to get some replies from owners of these clubs.. thanks guys!

well if you are looking for a club with more feedback and that has less forgiveness that X-24's, i would recomemend AP2's. More of a players iron, but still has SOME forgiveness.....i personally switched from MP30's to AP2's a few months back, love the AP2's! ball just seems to fly perfect for me.

Keep it where the mowers go!

..... but I never understand what people mean ...... if they say they want less forgiviness ....... I prefer all the forgiviness I can get, in a club that still allows me to work the ball........

go to a golf shop, hit em all with a pro and get fitted for the ones that best suit you, especially if price is not a big factor for you.

Personally I'm a Mizuno fan, but I'd suggest getting the set that you hit the best, feels the best to you and s/u the best your eye.

Hey, go to a Mizuno fitter if price isn't much of an issue. They can fit you for length and lie easily then put you on a launch monitor to see which shafts will fit you well. They'll like pick out a few shafts and then have you hit them to see how they feel to you. They also pick out a few of their heads for you to hit with the shaft that you like. After all is said and done you will have new found confidence in your clubs.

I would get the x-24's....oh wait

That does seem like the obvious answer doesn't it? Dude could pick up a vintage set of Hogan Apex (or something like that - you know what I mean) and hang onto those X-24s. That's what I'd do, but what the H do I know?

      I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
