I highly suggest you hit some mp demos. I thought they would be over my head but I plan to decide on a set soon. As I said in my thread, the 52s and 58s were great for me even with my higher handicap.

which is more forgiving the MP52s or MP58s...now considering MP series...decisions decisions...MX300s were pretty sweet...never hit a MP series though...and from what I read the MX300 is a fantastic blend of GI and PI

Supposedly the smaller the number in the MP line the more forgiving the club. Not sure if that's true or not but it seems to be the case. I have tried all of the clubs in the MP line and the 52's and 58's were at the top of the list. Both VERY nice. If I were you I would look at the 52's. you can also do a mixed bag of 52 and 58. A lot of people do this. I opted for the 57's. They are half a year older but VERY sweet. A good blend of the 2. You can find a brand new set for $500 and under now......one of the best bargains going...but obviously I'm biased. My best recommendation is to try all of them. Those 300's are very nice so make sure you compare the MP to the MX. The MP is a different animal.....ie, less loft, thinner topline and thinner sole.

BTW...some may say that a 16HC should not play MP's......ignore them....they probably are not a 16 HC and have not played an MP. The 52 is FINE for a 16. I'm a 12 now and can't imagine playing those big clunky GI clubs......

cool I'll look into demoing the 52s and 58s this weekend but try to not get caught up in it all because the mx300s were still pretty sweet...does dicks carry mizunos and have the fitting equipment/shaft optimizer?

I think you can get Mizuno at Dicks but they special order it maybe....not sure if they carry them at their stores. $49 is a good price to get fitted.

Another option would be to go maybe 7i, 6i, 5i, 4i with the 300's and pw, 9i,8i maybe 7i with the MP.... there is a difference in lofts though..... Something to think about....

      Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing.

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
