Could you help me?

I have a chance to exchange my Nike CPR 2 set for a Mizuno MP-30 set.
You should know that i'm playing for a year now, and i'm a average player.
I do strike the ball pretty good, my biggest problem is aiming..

is this a bridge to far, to big a step or should i go for it?

T-40 5 wood nike stock regular 22&26 degree CPR hybrids 5-9 CPR II 48 degree forged wedge 52&56 degree CPR wedges Corza monza

Seems like a fairly big jump, to be honest, but I started

learning with forged blades, so who am I to talk? The answer depends on a lot of things, not the least of which is: how good are you now and: how much time will you put into improving?

That is a big jump but I personally believe it is also a jump to a superior set of clubs. On this forum I have been know to bash full blades before but I also am not a fan at all of extreme game improvement irons. My advice to you would be definately make the switch but be ready to practice because even the the Mizunos are a better set of irons they will be a little more difficult to hit right away.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
