Which iron set should I buy (looking for forgiving)

[I <3 Titleist]

I've narrowed it down to pretty much two options.

Mizuno MX-23's used or Ping G5's new.

The Mizunos would be about 100 dollars cheaper.

So, which one would you take if you were looking for a forgiving iron set?

[PiKapp23]

The Ping's will probably be more forgiving, but the Mizuno MX-23 is a great iron that will grow with your game. They are forgiving, feel great and are not beyond your skill level. If you plan to play a lot and really dedicate yourself to getting better, then the Mizzies are the best choice. If you're happy where you are and/or are just an occasional/recreational golfer then the Ping's would be a better choice.

Quick question: your signature says you have Titleist 755s, are you switching from those? In terms of forgiveness, the G10s are much more forgiving - not to say the 23s aren't. However, in terms of looks, feel, workability, and price the Mizunos would be an excellent choice of irons. The MX-23s are definitely more forgiving than the 755s if you want a comparison.

Yah, I ended getting these irons for a song as I had an older set of 690cbs with a similar head profile. I need to go back to something more forgiving.

What's more forgiving? The MX-19 or MX-23?

[elchene]

Definitely the MX-19. However, I don't know if it is significantly more forgiving.

I would go with the Mizunos, they are far better on the eyes and great playing clubs.

What's more forgiving? The MX-19 or MX-23?

The MX-19 is quite a bit more forgiving than the MX-23 irons. They are more of a 'super game improvement' iron, whereas the MX-23 would be considered a 'game improvement' iron.

The Mizzy's rock over the Ping's. Not to say the G5's are bad clubs, but the 23's are much better.

The MX 19's are more forgiving, The MX 23's are good, but your swing has to be on to get the most out of them,

[MI Rob]

I really like either the MX-25 or the MX-19. the MX-25 are forged and feel a little bit better than the 19's in my opinion. Its your opinion so I think your best bet is going to a store and demo them.

[I <3 Titleist]

My swing is actually pretty good. It's the lack of forgiveness on mishits that'll kill you with the 755s.
