Titleist 695MB

can people give me feed back on how they like these clubs, time for my game to move to blades.

Tried these weapons for a bit or so back in 2007.  I eventually went with the 695CB due to a bit better feel for my swing.  At that time I was playing 5-6 times a week, and practiced every day.  I just didn't like the feel of the club for what it's worth.

I moved to the 695mb this season.  After 20 rounds or so, they're the best clubs in my bag, by far.  I had been using 755's for the previous 2 years, and it was an easy transition to the 695mb.  They are still pretty forgiving, with their z-muscle design.  Mine have TT Black Gold shafts in stiff.  They play stiffer to flex as they cpm a bit stiffer than a DG x100, which fits me perfectly.  Toe shots still get some air and stay pretty straight.  For me, it's probably more the shaft than anything, but I have no plans on taking them out of my bag in the foreseeable future.  I chose the 695mb because of their forgiving nature, but I also practice a lot more than previous years.  I have made some fantastic recovery shots (had driver issues) with them, and they respond well when trying to shape the ball.  For the price of a used set, you could try them and most likely resell them for the same amount if they don't fit.  Mine were in excellent condition and were only $200 plus shipping.

Remember the movie "The Patriot" with Mel Gibson.  There was a line where he told his kids.... "aim small, miss small".

I learned to play golf using my dad's old clubs.  An old set of 1963/64 MacGregor Tourney MT2 irons.  Butter knives!.  I purchased 1 set of game improvement cavity backed clubs since.  I found my ball striking got sloppy because of those clubs.  Yes, they were more forgiving than blades.  Yes, they made the game abit easier to hit the ball straight. But you may develop some bad habits using them.

Still, it's no accident that 95% of tour pros (nowadays) play some form of cavity backed irons.  Actually, my favorite irons were the Titleist 962b irons.  They were cavity backed blades.  I loved the iron profile.  If they hadn't worn out, I'd still be playing them today.  I currently play the Titleist 710mb blade.

I often tell my buddies "if you can't shoot 72 from the white tees, why move back to the blues or black tees?!"  For the challenge?!!!!  They haven't even met the challenge from the white tees yet.  Ultimately, they're going to do what they want to do.

Go with whichever is most comfortable for you.  Get the irons YOU want.  Life is too short.

Good luck.
