I have been playing the Miz MP-63's for about 2 years now. I was professionally fit for the 63s and custom ordered with the Nippon 950 shafts. I was told these shafts are lighter (95g) and would help get my spin up. I currently am playing to a 1.6 index and really don't have any complaints about the clubs. Although, truth be told, I substituted an Adams A12 4h for the 63 4 iron, and i don't hit the 5 all that consistently.
I am now being told (from a different PGA instructor that the Nippons are too light for my swing. I have been taking lessons since my Miz fitting and do believe my swing is different. So I am off to look for new set of irons. Sure, i could just replace my current shafts, but heck, that's no fun. The Miz swing optimizer today provided 3 options (DG 300S, PX 5.5, KBS Tour Stiff)
I have always been drawn to the TItleist AP2s, and my final decision 2 years ago was between the AP2s and the MP-63s. Well, now I am back to looking at the AP2s. One of the PGA instructors at my club suggested I do a AP1 / AP2 combo, using the 4 & 5 AP1 and the rest AP2. I looked at him and told him he was crazy. I am not going from a blade like Miz to a GI AP1. That is his setup and he suggested I ignore the shovel look of the AP1 and just hit it. So I did. And, I must tell you, the things are flat out awesome. I hit about 10 in a row dead straight. I then tried to cut and draw a couple of balls, and wow, was plenty easy enough.
I know there are some PGA players that play the AP1s, but I am questioning if I am going the wrong way.
I see Miz is coming out with the H-4 combo set in a month. What to do?
