i have mizuno mx 100s and they have a 4 and a 5 hy. but it seems like i never hit them solid. (Yes i treat them like irons) but they all just seem to be badly hit and faded.

so today i pulled out my dads 4 iron (875 Tommy Armour) and from 200 out put both balls i hit on the green

i hit them very solidly and they felt great

so im looking on ebay to see if i can find a mizuno 4/5 iron that i could buy. i know they dont have them in mx 100s but what type of mizuno irons should i be looking for?

MX-23, MX-25 or MX-200 would be good options. You also have the option of the MP Fli-Hi hybrids. They are hybrids but the head shape is very much like an iron. I had a set of them (2H, 3H and 4H) and personally didnt care for them and they dont seem to get a lot of love in magazine reviews but some people like them.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

yeah the only thing is though i dont know where to find just a 4 iron or a 5 iron without having to buy a whole set because all the irons on ebay are standard size shaft but mine need to be plus 1

I hate hybrids. I am a traditionalist, i have to have something that looks like an iron or wood to hit it. The hybrids and those funky drivers just don't sit well.

If I was hitting my Dad's Tommy Armour 845's spot on, I'd be looking for some Tommy Armours.

That's the first thing that I thought as well.

    • Day 22: mirror work for a while. Working on my elbow in the downswing - keeping it in a better position. 
    • Day 36 (16 Dec 25) - continued the exaggerated left foot weight shift trigger adding some easy low flighted pitches with the 5h and a few putting style bump and runs with the 5h as well.
    • Day 442 - 2025-12-16 Got some swings in at an indoor academy a little south of Erie.
    • Has anyone played the new Maxfli forged irons? For the first time in I don't know how many years, they have come out with new clubs. From what I read, Maxfli was bought by Taylor Made a long time ago which then took all of their ball making technology and patents in order to get into that market. The club business was left to whither and the reorganized company, now a part of Dicks / Golfworks / Maltby, is producing these new clubs. (Their Tour X balls which I play are really good.) Anyway, I tried them both out at Golf Galaxy. There's a player's distance iron (XC-3) and a blade (XC-2) and both feel really, really nice, almost "Mizuno-like" in their soft buttery feel and they're a bargain at $800 for a set. I'm planning to ditch my Titleist's and want to go back to a forged iron. I almost pulled the trigger on the Mizuno Pro-245's last summer, but a damaged tendon sheath in my finger combined with a back injury messed up my golf game so I held off. Now the Pro-245's are no longer available, soon to be replaced by the MX-15. (At twice the price of the Maxfli's...that's what got my attention in the first place.) If anyone has played with the new Maxfli's or just tried them out like I did, let me know what you think.
    • Day 126 12-16 Back swing and rotation work today. Didn't hit any balls. Focusing on rotating and getting to lead side.
