I have a set of the 695.MB's and have had a chance to hit them on the range a couple times now.

The good
Loved the ball flight which was a bit higher than my Mizuno Pro-II's. The ball didn’t flutter at all. The long irons were especially nice. The ball gets up high and hangs there. I don’t think I’ve ever 3 and 4 irons as nice as the 695.MB's.

The misses were better as well. I hit the ball a bit thin at first, but the ball still traveled really well. Even though it is a pure ‘forged’ club and the Pro-IIs have somewhat of a cavity, the 695.MB’s were more forgiving.

Another nice thing, they're pretty to look at.

The bad
Nothing really. I had thought that I’d hit the 695’s a bit further, but there was no difference in distance whatsoever. I didn’t have any problems with the rifle shafts coming from the S300's. The difference in weight (they are a bit heavier than my T-Zoids) was small as well and easy to get used to. The second time on the range I barely even noticed it.

I’ll probably hit them some more over the next couple weeks and use them in a few rounds. I don’t feel like it will be a huge transition to go tothe 695.MB’s from the Pro-IIs. If anything, I’m gaining because of how sweet the long irons are.

Fairways and Greens.

I have the 695CB's and love them. I have to say though, I've never seen a better looking iron than the 695MBs. Simply gorgeous. And money when you flush them.

I have both the MB's and CB's, and had considered producing a combo set, but the MB's are simply better. Period.

The CB's have the lower center of gravity, which means you can get the ball high easily, but overall the MB's have the better feel plus performance off any lie. You can simply rip out of anything.

Flight wise the MB's are slightly higher, but not by alot, but the MB's flatten out nicer.

In essence, the MB's will stay in my bag :D

    • Day  3 (4 May 24) - Easy pitch day with 9i in the backyard.  Worked on staying smooth thru impact, keeping shots to 20yds or less. 
    • From what I’ve read, it was in the manufacturing process and how the covers were nicking pretty easy.  He has had to resource his factory as the one used earlier is now a TM owned facility.  Initial reports seem to indicate the redesign is going to be a winner…
    • Day 129: 5/4/24 Stack training but could not certify my warmup speed. Dealing with a pulled neck muscle. Chips and pitches at a local course for about 15 minutes.
    • Typically less than 50. I find this can be affected by the "CART" signs on a given course. I don't like taking my rangefinder out of the cart and carrying it around to the green. I am very fearful I will leave it somewhere. 
    • First ever holed out greenside bunker shot! It's crazy it took this long to finally get one during a round, but the cold streak is officially over. Hole 6 on the Palmer Course at PGAN. I hit my driver like 225 into a really stiff wind, then worm burned a hybrid into the bunker. I was about I dunno, 40-45 feet away. Birdie! Let's go! The red Xs the approximate location of each shot.  Really fun!!
