Ok, so I am thinking about getting rid of my DCI 762's after 8 years. I am a solid ball striker, low ball flight.... Not much of a shot shaper, can hit the draw or fade but prefer to just change the height as needed. Looking for a good set of irons to replace the 762's and these are my narrowed choices.


Ping S59- Cast, minimal offset, ping fitting says im a blue dot... paid to have it done and they said im a standard/standard
735cm- Forged, minimal offset, cavity to muscle
mp 30- cut muscle, great reputation

Have dg300's in the 762's. Curious about the project x's.

Feedback would be appreciated.

I can't account for the S59's or the mp30s, but I can say that I was very impressed with the 735cms. They are a bit heavier than the 755s and 775s, but the feel when striking the ball is almost identical. I figured I'd give them a shot (for $150 shipped, why not?) although I was really looking for a set of Mizunos or more recent Titleist clubs. Ended up being so happy with them that I kept them. I love having the split set.

I guess my real concern would be to go with the 1 degree upright or not. Been playing standard clubs so long and being fit once having the result be standard. Ping fitting says 1up / standard length. Should I try the upright in the Titleists?

the 1 up would be a good thing if you are tall. Otherwise, if you want all blades, go with the mp30, if you want a blended set, go with the Titleist. I believe Mizuno also does blended sets but you have to custom order them and they get pricey.

I'm not a ping fan, but some people like them. If you buy them you will likely loose some feel.

Agreed. My friends father (also a single-digit handicapper) bought a set of either S59s or S57s this year and wasn't very impressed with them. Also, they have a dampener in the cavity if memory serves me correctly.

I know I'm a little late here but I can speak from experience with the 735CM's... Bought a used set about a year ago at a golf shop... I have played a few rounds with them and they feel really solid... IMO Pings are great clubs, I can't argue with the science and engineering that goes into the design of those clubs, they just feel a little bit hard to me at impact... Mizuno makes great clubs, the opposite of Pings, soft feel from the forging process... If you needed to get Titleists or Mizunos adjusted you could have them bent by a clubfitter if it's only a degree or two... Good luck with whatever you go with and hit 'em straight!

    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
    • Day 31 (2 Jan 26) - Usual Friday men’s group shootout - good day of shot making  as most shots were right on line to the target point.  Putter and green reads were solid with some great par saves and a really tricky birdie.  
    • Day 13 - 2026-01-02 One hour short game work. Chipping balls to different targets, compass putting drill with 2-3% slope.
