Not sure if you can link to Ebay-if not my apologies. I had a set of the Macgregors in the full blade version (Pro-M) last year, but my swing wasn't compatible with the Nippon shafts I ordered. Gave them to my brother and have missed them ever since and recently got the split cavity/muscleback set I linked to (Pro-CM) with Dynamic Gold shafts. My absolute favorite of the countless iron sets I have hit-and an absolute steal.

Speaking of MacGregor and forged split BC/MB, I saw nice set of progressive cavity VIPs (whatever that model was) at PIAS yesterday. I'm glad I had somewhere to be or I might have pulled the trigger.

RE: an earlier post - the MP-30s remind me of 1994 Apexes.

Nike Splits can be had for $519 with a coupon from Edwin Watts on Facebook! Thats how I got mine at Edwin Watts in store!

I played a set of those last year. They are not very forgiving at all. I am still trying to get my HC down from that disaster. I did like the nippon shafts though.

A friend of mine has the mp 52's.
Not sure if that's what your looking for but they're really nice clubs

If you want a muscleback iron, I highly recommend;

1. Miura 1957 LE Blade
2. Miura Tournament Blade
3. Scratch SB-1

If you want a "player's cavity", check out;

• Miura CB-202
• Miura CB-501
• Scratch AR-1

You can't go wrong with any of those sets. Premium clubs, every one of them. My clubbuilder, who deals strictly in high end clubs like this, can hook you up with any of these for a very fair price (not much more than a set of OTR Titleist or Mizuno's).

It depends on money. If you have $1200 to spend by all means look at the irons Rebby posted.

But you are only 15 so I am assuming you don't have a ton of money to spend. If you want new, try out the Mizuno MP 52, 62, and 58, or the MX 200 or 300. Or the MP 68 if you want a muscleback. Also, the new MB and CB irons from Titleist, in addition to the AP2s, which you could find new or used. If you do want to go used, look for the Mizuno MP 57 or 60. Used for Titleist you would be good with the 755, 695, 775, 735, or last year's model, the ZB.

I just saw a like new set of 1957's sell for $900 and I sold my SB-1's for even less than that. If you've got time and you keep your eyes open, any of those sets that I suggested can be had for roughly the same as most OTR sets (or even less).

Didn't your SB-1s have your initials stamped in them, or am I thinking of someone else? Second hand forged is a safe bet - you can get them bent and you don't have to shed any "first scratch" tears like you do with a new set (or a new car).

No, my irons weren't stamped. My wedges are though. I kept them.
