I have been researching the MX 19s and I stumbled across this video.
It's more a comparison between the MX 25s and the MX 19s.
I like that he is showing real numbers to make his point.

Interesting... thanks for posting the link.

I've been playing with MX-19s since the end of last season and am enjoying them. Overall I like them. If I had to do it over again, I'd probably go with the MX-25s, but that's just personal preference.
What's in the bag:

G10 9 degree, TFC 129 shaft, stiff
Big Bertha 3 Wood
FTX 2i, Apex Plus 3i-E MP-R 52/07 and 56/13 Zing

The local shop has a pre-owned set for $299.
They said the guy only played them about half a dozen times and the wear seems to reflect that.
I've been doing a lot of research on these clubs and everything I have read is really positive.

I think I'm going to go down tomorrow morning and become a Mizuno-Man.

(Now what do I do with my Callaway bag?? hmmmmm)

I bought a brand new set of Mizuno MX-19 s last July and really liked them....the look of the 3, 4 and 5 Irons at address appears a bit clunky and the soles are pretty big, but other than that, you can't go wrong with them.

However, slowly but surely I've been taking a few out and replacing them with Titleist 695.MB blades, which funnily enough, I seem to hit just as well....

TaylorMade R9 460 9.5°
TaylorMade R9 13°
TaylorMade RAC TP MB 3-PW
TaylorMade RAC TP 54°.10 / 58°.10

I can't bring myself to play a blade.

It's completely psycological. They look too much like my fathers clubs sitting in the garage from 1974(really old technology)

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
