Anyone have any info on these? How do they compare to 690 mbs, 695s, 670s, etc? forging process? Age? If i put new grips on these baby's how close will they be to the 710 mbs? How offset? Thanks.

EDIT: Also, what are the comparable mizuno irons and how do they stack up?

i thnk they are a 1/4 inch longer and a degree more upright than the non dot versions,with new grips they will probably be close to the same i mean how much technology can you put in new blades?plus the 690.mb also have v-grooves which i believe are conforming.the 690.mb were made in 05 i believe.i used to own a set thier good clubs

Don't know about the 690s, but I have hit the Nike blades. Not as smooth/soft as my Mizunos. Probably why I bought them.

mp57s are forged. Talked a playing friend into them over a year ago. He still loves them. The 68s are softer, but way less forgiving than the 57s

I had the 690.MB's a few years back. Great clubs, I would think they are very similar to the new 710's, definitely look almost the same.

I sold my 690.MB's and totally regret doing so now looking back on it. Great clubs that I'd love to throw back in the bag when I'm swinging well.

      My Swing (Zeph)

      By iacas ·

      Welcome back! Evolvr.com? I don't use the full extreme end of it, and that's probably dipped to 75% or so nowadays. But I use the sole more than I don't, yeah. Also… it's good to learn this shot: Middle up. Not generally outside your feet in either direction. I generally have it slightly forward of center, yeah. Short version: tip your upper body in the direction of the slope. Look at the GC3. You can find them for really good prices sometimes.

      Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.

      Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.

      Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.
