I just got to demo a mizuno mp32 6 iron and it was seriously a nice iron. My question is what do you guys think is the best mizuno iron to buy in this line? I held the mizuno mp68 at the store but didnt hit it like the mizuno mp32. When I held the mp68 i think it felt a tiny bit lighter than the mp32 but man I was hitting that mp32 soooo good. So anybody who knows alot about mizuno irons please give me some input as to which one to buy out there, Im new to them. are the mp32s pretty much the best ones?

Well, I've tried the Mp-58 and the Mp-52 and I truly LOVED the mp-58 while the mp-52 felt a bit dead in my hands when I hit it. It might be because I was shooting of a mat and not on real grass with the 52's but I would go for the 58's if I had to choose between them.

yea I would like to hit the mp58 now to compare to the mp32. I just dont know much about mizuno irons, was hoping some people on here who do can chime in.

I personally like the 32s and a lot of other people are a fan of them as well.

I have Mizuno Fairway woods and Mizuno wedges. When I decide to retire the Clevelands I will definately buy a set of Mizunos. I,d demo all of them and which ever felt the best is what I would buy. My personal opinion is Mizuno builds the highest quality irons on the market. Which ever ones you end up with will last you many years.

no Im not but I want to try some mizuno irons for awhile and I hit the mp32s pretty good.

Then I'd recommend the MP32s-go with the irons you actually hit well, not ones that you hope will be similar.

the 58s are pretty sweet but I have not hit the 32s

well my local golf shop had a brand new set of Mizuno mp-32 3-pw that they gave me for my titleist ap2 710 4-pw but I had to pay 50.00 on top of that. Im pleased with the deal, got a 3 iron now and I hit the mizunos better.

I had a set of mp-60's and they were great. I loved em. But if you really like that soft Mizuno feel, try some Bridgestones. My J36's feel better than my mizuno's did, although they probably don't have quite the reputation of Mizuno.

yea Il have to try them. I was hitting the mp-32s at a higher trajectory than the ap2's and the feeling was pure. I also felt I could work the ball alot more with the mp-32's which makes sense sense they are more of a blade.

Well, you've got all the key buzzwords in there, so it sounds like the MP-32s are the ones to get.

My Mizunos feel fantastic. Even practice swings feel great - can't wait to hit that ball. The end result is typically decent, but when I'm playing well, I find my Clevelands and APex PCs get the ball closer to the hole. I feel the distance control is better with a less meaty muscleback. I'll probably never give up my mizzies because they way they look and feel is second to none (imvho), but being pin high beats a downhill putt from the back fringe any day.

I dont know about that, Bridgestones are pretty well-respected irons. They might be on the same level as Miuras or Epons; but they are easily as respected as Mizuno or Srixon.

You might want to try a set of Mizuno MX-200s or MX-300s. They have much of the feel of an MP iron but are more forgiving.

If I hadnt bought my MP-32s used and got a great deal on them, I would have been forced to make a tough decision between the 200s and 300s.

I'll stick with my MP-11s and mix in rounds with the other blades here and there whenever I feel like it thanks.

Ive tried the mx-300's they are ok for game improvement but arent really on the same level as the more player irons IMO.

Which mizuno irons do you have? Yea with the ap2's I could hit them very solid but they never give a high ball flight. They always give a boring ball flight, I thought it was just my swing until I tried the mp-32's and they were going about 5-10 yards higher on every shot. Might of been the tungsten insert on the ap2s, i dunno

Yes they are well respected. And great clubs. Just don't understand Bridgestones PR department. They could have much more of the market share, but they hardly advertise their clubs, and don't pay many tour players. Guess thats what I meant. More people would love them like me, but they hardly consider them.

    • 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.

    • 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.
