I currently have the 57's and are by far the best club I've ever hit. A good amount of playabilty and forgiveness. Last year I had 67's and I'm simply not good enought for those.

MP 57's 4-PW KBS Stiff
Ping G 20 10.5* Stiff
Taylormade V Steel 3 and 5 wood

Bridgestone J33 R Hybrid 21* NV Shaft

I demoed both, and I loved the -57s much more. Maybe it's because they're a bit more forgiving?

The 57 is the first full cavity back that Mizuno has made in the MP series. The 60 has a tiny cavity back and is made of a different steel. It allows for much more playability.

If you're someone who works the ball, go with the 60. Otherwise, the 57 is for you.

My observation at demo days is that the 60s stung worse on bad shots than the 57s did. Whether that's better in the feel department is dependent on what feel you're looking for.

which one would you play with and why

question for ya...are you shopping for a new set of clubs or just being curious to what others think? if you are shopping for a new set i hope you have at least narrowed it down to these two clubs. i personally would NEVER go buy a set of clubs just because somebody says they are the best THEY have ever hit. just trying to give some sound advice as i just went through the whole process of getting a new set of irons the last two months or so

my advice in that case would be to hit every single club you can (the clubs that match your playing ability), and preferably close to your fit (length, lie, etc)

i love my 60's and i'm not below a 10. I got them last year after about 4 months of playing golf. it really forced me to make a good swing everytime..and it gives you feedback when you hit a bad shot as to where you hit it..and then i can take that and correct it the next time....plus it's just sexy

the mp's are the players series of mizuno which they claim is supposed to be for the better strokers out there.... i say whichever's more comfortable when you swing and at impact. the 57's are a great club. forgiving and don't penalize you as much when you hit it chunky, toe it or hit it off center. i mean, look at the 3 iron of the 60's. that's like no room for error to hit....
but they both feel great...i just like the thinner profile of the 60's..even though there's not a huge difference.

I use project X flighted shafts on my mp-60's. you can find mp60's for $749 and even 699 brand new online. My friend is selling his..used for a season for $600 + shipping if you're interested. Email me:
dbdjyoshi703@aol.com .
MP57's run about the same.

Project X shafts are about $220 for all the shafts.
BUT you can order them for about $100 more witih the project x shafts installed already.

mp-57's if you're a mid player, and if you are a low handicap consider the 60-67's. If I were you I'd go try out every iron you can think of and decide from there. Only you can decide what feels good, not other people.

that's exactly what I did last year. I spent 4 hours at the range hitting full shots with the 5 & 7 irons. I think the pro shop manager was getting PISSED

      Revisiting My First Golf Instructor

      By StuM ·

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.

      Day 552, May 7, 2024 Played nine holes with @NatalieB with irons only from her tees. Didn't really finish out any holes, just hit the irons and approaches and some chips.

      What has gone downhill? Have you been practicing properly, filming your swing, working on exactly what he suggested without straying? My thoughts are that your results/outcomes from a lesson a year ago probably aren't all that relevant anymore.  And carry distance is far more important than total distance. Total distance is going to vary significantly based on course conditions.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By snapfade ·

      One thing that has helped me tremendously is to spray the club face with foot powder when I am on the range. Seeing ball impact can be quite helpful if you are hitting shots all over the place. It's not the cure all, but a good little thing to do on the range. The other thing, and I will forget to do it, is the pre-shot routine. Find me a spot a foot or so from the ball in-line with my target, take my stance, take the swing.  Sometimes you take a BS practice swing with no thought. Make it deliberate.  As far as swing thoughts. I have 3 check-points. First is set-up, Second is my take away, Third is my downswing. I cant explain what I think I just know in my mind. Its a feeling that I have that feels right and experience has shown that if I follow those 3 thoughts more than likely the outcome will be what I was looking for. Now, thinking about the feeling and executing it properly is a whole different thing, that;s why I practice, I used to be over a 20 handicap, I am down to a 15.1 in about a year.  I feel like its good progress. the goal is a 10 by the end of the year. If I make it great, if not, hey at least Im not in Gaza. LOL

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By StuM ·

      I usually shy away from giving advice on a golf swing since so many here are more qualified than I am.  You might try the following:  Create a "MySwing" page on this  site and you will get a lot of good advice Filter all of the advice and try to only focus on one or two things at a time.  Unfortunately it is very hard, if not impossible, to constantly change different things at the same time.  Figure out what is the most important thing to work on at this moment in your golf swing and focus on that until you have it engrained, then move on the the next change. Remember, we all have both good & bad shots.  The difference between the pros and us hackers is the ratio of good to bad shots. Understand that a bad swing can occasionally look like a great result and a good swing can occasionally have a bad result.  The key is to focus on one thing and work to get that as consistent as possible.  Ideally that will gradually increase the number of good shots vs bad shots.    Do not forget to have fun.
