I'm an 11 handicap wondering if I should play with blades. I had Mizuno TZoids Pro ll and switched to a blended set of Titleist AP1 and AP2. I just do not like the feel of the AP's so I went back to the TZoids and my iron play is better overall but I do get less out of the Mizunos on toe hits which I do too frequently. I am thinking about a set of MP 33's but want feedback about that club in general and whether it will play similar to the TZoids. Thanks for any help.

if you interested in a blended set, I have some MP-32's in great shape I would sell you for a decent price

bleded or a combo set's are wicked IMO

I play both the T-Zoids and MP-33s myself. Both are quality sets. MP-33 is a little less forgiving, but the feel is softer. T-Zoids has a thicker top-line at address, which envokes less confidence for me personally. The short irons for the MP-33s are the reason that I stick to MP-33s as the main set. They're just too chucky with the T-Zoids.

If you're hitting it off the toe often, then I wouldn't touch the MP-33s. These are not clubs that have any forgiveness there. In fact, I find the sweetspot on the 33s closer to the heel if anything.

Here's a test, if you're hitting the ball 8+ out of 10 times on the sweetspot, then go for it. You can always adjust for swing path with a set of blades, to control the fades and draws. I think that's the fun part about them.

Driver:  R11S 10.5°, Fairway Woods:  909 F2 15.5°, Hybrid:  G10 21°

Irons:  Tour Preferred MC 4-P, Wedges:  Vokey SM 52.08, 56.10, 60.04

Putter:  Tei3 Newport II / Circa 62 #3, Ball:  Pro V1X / NXT Tour

    • Depends on the lie, pin location, green.  I would say most of my pitches are with my 60-degree.  Its probably like 90% 60-degree, 10% 56 degree. 
    • Depends on my lie and the green I am working with. If I want to fly and stop, my 58* If I am looking for it to run a bit, my 54* And on occasion if the lie and green call for it, punch and run with my 7i
    • I did the RTJ trail, we just did Grand National and Capitol Hill. We were trying to minimize travel time. It gave us 5 courses to play. You pare playing 3 of the 5 we played.  If I had to pick, I would play the Lakes over the Links at Grand National. Links felt too penal on approach shots. If you can't get height or spin, it felt like every ball that hit the center of the green ran off the back. A lot of the greens require force carry, no running it up. It just wasn't that fun to play.   Judge - Really good course, some really cool holes and terrain.   Senator - Really fun open course. They call it link style, I can't remember how much you can play the ball down, but it has the aesthetic appeal.   
    • I do that at the range; I just have been going through a half-assed pre-shot routine. 😇 I just kind of waltz up to the ball and hit it. I catch myself just going through the motions of aiming. Once I started aligning my club to an intermediate target, I felt like I was aligned way open to the target but just trusted it. Like, if the club was aimed at the flag in the middle of the green, then my body was aligned left of the green or more (assuming something like a 100+ yard shot). I think I was more concerned with where my feet were lined up and not the clubface.  A question on alignment then.  So, the ball is like what, 3-FT away from the toe target line. So, does that mean if my toe line is aimed at the flag, the club is aimed 3-ft right? Does the perception of the green looking smaller in the distance impact that in terms of how we hit the shot? I feel like the geometry should work that the ball is actually aimed 3-FT right.
