Hey all, a local play it again sports has a couple sets of mizuno irons for pretty cheap ($150). My question is, would they still be good? I can go back up there and take pictures and find out what kind they were, but i guess i just need to know what to look for. I know about the grooves and the overall appearance, but is there anything else i should consider before trading my clubs in (mine are only a half year old) and getting these? Thanks in advance

Anything wrong with the 6-month old set you already own? Moving on great deal is one thing, but only if you need them. These are pretty tough times we're in now, so even $150 saved is something.

I saw a set of used MP-33 irons in excellent condition for $159 this afternoon. If it weren't for the fact that they were right-handed, I would have worked out a deal for them on the spot. Alas, bargains like that are few and far between on the lefty pre-owned market.

I'm thinking about buying a set of used Mizuno irons from eBay. MP-32, MP-57 or something. Have only used cavity back before, buying a used quality set of Mizuno blades, or some sort of cut muscle at least sounds like a good idea to me.

I recently bought a set of Mizuno MX-15s off of Ebay and they are the best irons Ive ever hit.
Before the Mizzies I had a set of Titleist DCI 981s and you wouldnt get me to switch back to the 981s.
I always heard great things about Mizuno irons and everything I read or heard about them is true. Whether or not its worth it is really a personal decision.

MP-33's! They're the best feeling irons I've ever played with. My strokes get lower and lower each time I go out. Actually, any irons in the Mizuno lineup are great, older and newer.

Like I said, if they were left-handed, they'd be in my bag right now. There were some scratches on the back of the clubheads, but the faces were still pure. It looked like they had just been re-gripped as well. Someone in Atlanta's getting a steal, and I just wish it could have been me.

    • They sure do. 158 with an 8 iron is on the high end for me
    • Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.  
    • Distances look fine, no?
    • Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
