Mizuno MX-100 Irons

[50stones]

I was sure this is supposed to be a hybrid set but I took delivery this morning and the 4 and 5i seem to be standard type irons.

I am not really bothered by this because I ordered the MX-19 originally because I didnt want hybrids but they had no stock and sent MX-100 for the same price so I thought I would give them a whirl.

Either way Im a tad confused.

Weird. I'm guessing that maybe the MX100s available in Europe don't have 4 & 5 hybrids? Also, the MX100s aren't forged if that's important to you. If so, check out the MX900s. They are similar to MX19s but they are forged. And they don't come with hybrids either.

Now I may very well be wrong about this...but I was not aware that they even had regular 4 and 5 irons as an option in the mx100s. Are the graphics blue and yellow or just blue. I ask because I wonder if they might have sent you the forged mx200s instead? If so, and you paid for the mx100s you got a bargain!

Was this an e-bay transaction?

****sorry I just noticed you were in Europe. Specs may be different than in the U.S.

They were bought from an online UK golf store. I think this may be a european thing or mr mizuno made a speacial set with me in mind. They have the yellow and blue colouring and they say MX-100 so they are definately not another club.

I did have a look at the MX-900 but they were considerably more expensive and I am really still a beginner and didnt feel the need for forged irons just yet.

MX-100 hybrids dont really look like traditional hybrids. They are kinda weird looking, sort of like a hybrid with the top half of the back part of the clubhead cut out.

That's true! One thing I will give them is that the shaft lengths are the same as the irons they replace. That is quite rare. I thought I'd like that so I picked up a MX-950 3 hybrid (21*) and found that while it is more forgiving than a 3 iron, I hit it just as far and much lower than my Cobra DWS 23*. The Cobra is going back in the bag.

My guess is that this is a European set. I also saw today where there was a MX wedge released only in Europe (or at least not in the US) that would fit perfectly with my MX23s. I'd love to get my hands on a set of GW,SW & LW!
