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.

Focus, connect and follow through!

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus.

      I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
