Today I played a 9 hole course par 32 and shot 39. Not bad considering I had 4 three putts and it was my second time playing this season. The Mizzy's were so pure, deadly accurate my ball was pin seeking on just about every shot. However i did lose about 5 yards which is not a big deal because i gained 10 yards from last year with the Macgregor's I perviously used. I am very happy with the 68's I can work the ball right to left very well and am pleased at how my shots were going right at the hole. The forgiveness is good to for being blades, distance wise was only about 5 yards less on a okay shot, directional forgiveness seemed good because I didn't lose any balls way left or right.

You're a diehard blade player huh? From MacGergor to Mizuno. You must be a big dude to handle those X100s too! Those things must feel incredibly strong and solid.

New stuff is great fun! I'm getting new clubs delivered periodically throughout the next two months. Exciting times!

This is actually my first set of blades the McaGregor's I was playing were the MT forged which were considered to be a players cavity back but the were more towards a game improvement iron.

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
