Mixed Set Question

[iturn463]

I am currently playing Mizuno MP 57s. I got these irons about a year and a half ago. Long story short - I'm looking to get an 8, 9, and pw in a Mizuno muscle back (either 32s, 67s, or 68s). I've been to Golfsmith and asked if they would break one of their used sets up, but as expected they wouldn't. I don't really want to spend 250-400 dollars on a whole set when I only want 3 of the clubs (plus the price to reshaft and regrip them).

Does anybody have any idea how I should go about this?

Thank you.

Edit- I've also been regularly checking on ebay and craigslist.

You can just order these new to you own specs from any Mizuno dealer.

I would use all of the same irons, but different woods, putter, and driver.

Hmm, well at handicap 20 you won't profit much from blade like wedges, but I can understand some low hancicappers would like optimum control or less forgiviness in their short irons.

Besides that many midcappers replace their 3, 4 and even 5 irons by hybrids and not allways from the same brand as their irons AND many golfers use Bob Vokey or Cleveland wedges instead of matching to their iron set.

It depends on how much time you have to practice. I have a CG14 GW and an X-Forged SW. My pro said they would help my scoring as long as I would practice with them. These have smaller heads than my iron set's stock wedges: cut through the rough better, and make cleaner contact.

Now there's no way I would play an X-Forged 5i - just don't have the swing. But with the shorter shafts, the CG and the X-Forged wedges are quite manageable, and the main reason I've cut three strokes off my HDCP.

its all about what feels good, and what you can score with...
