I recently had my clubs stolen so I had to grab new gear. After careful consideration I decided on a set of Mizuno MP 52 irons (I can't buy brand new due to financial restrictions at the moment). The combination of forgiveness, feel and workability sold me on them. I found them on-line in great condition for only $100!!! They arrived via fed-ex today and I'm itching to get to the range. I know I didn't get to test drive them but I owned Mizuno MP 68's before this happened and they were amazing.

Does anyone have any feedback on the MP 52's? If so, I'd like to hear it. Cheers.

Please explain. :-)

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

Please explain. :-)

Yes Shorty, I wanted something a little more forgiving on mis-hits. I loved my MP 68's but mis-hits were punished fairly harsh. I am a solid ball striker but I came to the conclusion that blades do make a difficult game just that much more difficult. So you were correct in that department even though I could hit them decent; it's the harshness of the mis-hits that I wanted to eliminate. So, cheers and I apologize for any malicious comments that I made in the past.

I just got back from testing out my 8 iron in a hydro field by my house and man what a sweet club. If the whole set is anything like the 8 iron then I'm going to be in Mizzy heaven. I'm looking forward to the pocket cavity/dual muscle in the mid/long irons as well. They came with Dynamic Gold SL S300 shafts as well. I'm going to the range tomorrow so I'll let you guys know how my day goes.

Certainly an easier club to hit than the 68s!

It seems that way with just the 8 iron alone. My first shot was slightly heeled and it was still a good shot with a beautiful trajectory and distance. Obviously I'll know more tomorrow but they're are designed with more forgiveness in mind.

Well, I have to say that the MP 52's are incredible. Very forgiving, beautiful trajectory and no loss in distance compared to my previous game improvement irons. The sweet spot is that perfect "Mizuno Feel" that all Mizuno players talk about and pured shots put a huge smile on your face.

Much more forgiving than MP 68's so I think I'll stick with these babies. The mi to long irons have the dual muscle, pocket groove technology which helps with launch, making them easy to hit and get in the air for a player's iron. The short irons are incredibly solid and the dispersion is very tight. I couldn't be more happy; I was knocking down targets like crazy today.

There's something about a Mizuno MP iron or even a player's iron that makes you WANT to put a good swing on the ba

    • Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.
    • Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.
    • That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
    • This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.
    • He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
