So my dad told me that he would buy me new irons since he liked what he saw on my report card.
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

Ok...so i'm deciding which irons....
These are the 3 i'm watching:

Mizuno MP-60
Mizuno MP-23
Titleist 735 CM.

Currently, I'm bidding on a MP-60....I'm not going over $650 though.

My dad said I should stick with the mp 60's since they give more forgiveness
But i like the look of the mp 23 and titleist 735 better...

WHAT SHOULD I DO???

btw....the auction for the mp 60 is ending in an hr....

EDIT: O ya. forgot to mention about the shaft...
I'm not sure which shaft i should get
R300 or S300....I understand one is stiff and the other one is regular...but is there really diff????!?

Yes, a big difference.

I recommend you get fitted. I'm not familiar with the Mizuno ones you've mentioned, but our review on the 735s is on this site somewhere ( http://thesandtrap.com/archives/reviews/ ). Have a look. But get fitted. Best thing you can do. Without a proper fitting, you're getting started on the wrong foot. Plus they can tell you which shaft you should get.

go with the 735's... they produce a lot of self confidence, they look great and also are great bragging material

    • Day 170: did the yardstick putting drill. 
    • Day 2 1 hour of range work, muni range in Van Nuys. Focusing still on weight shift, starting forward shift earlier. Seeing some progress. Little bit of chipping work.
    • I wish! Double quotes are inches and a single quote is feet! It was just 11 inches, my friend, @ChetlovesMer!    Day 4 1/3/25  Indoor chipping and weight shift drills. Will putt through 50 mm  gates rom 11 inches before bed.

    • Day 244 (3 Jan 24) - Friday men’s group round - a really solid front nine at one over 37 from the gold tees. Out of the 8 pars - six were up and downs…the lone bogie included a water ball penalty stroke.  At the turn, game shifted to my typical reality as it was a 45 with open and close dbls on 10 and 18, with five bogies and two pars strewn in between. Still a solid 82 overall - with 28 total putts (incl one 3 putt) 5 GIR and 5 nGIR.   Oh the highlight of the day - the ladies’ teaching pro was in our foursome and she was very complimentary of my overall approach and wedge game.  It made those drills in the backyard well worth the time spent.
