I have always loved the 3 iron and I am glad that I have a set that provides me with one. For some reason I can hit it better than my 3 wood so I usually use it off the tee during a round about 3-5 times. I was hitting it very well today at the range, key is just staying down and keeping good rhythm and tempo which I did very well today.

yea most of the guys on tour still carry a 3 iron. I tend to hit the 3 iron hybrids too far. I will probably get a strong 3 iron hybrid instead of a 5 wood though. I too have a problem hitting my 3 wood off the deck. Thats the only club shot I struggle with, ive started to just choke down alot and try to treat it like a 5 wood and that seems to help. it just sucks when Im on par 5's and I try to hit my second shot with my 3 wood and my shot goes skimming across the ground.

Doesn't anyone want to plug the MP-33? Best looking blade ever made, in my opinion.

ive never hit the mp33. Ive seen them before though. I guess theres always the discussion of which are better, the mp-33 or mp32 which I have read and leads no where. the mp-33's dont have the muscle cut and are strickly a blade so its hard to compare the two.

I think the MP-33 is a tad overrated, but that may be because I've never seen a set in real life - just web photos that never do an iron justice. Having a PING related epiphany right now, but I digress.

Where'd you read/hear that discussion?

Actually it is the same with the MP-32, many golfers saying to play these "blades" are actually playing a blade-a-like cavity back, with about 25% extra weight in the sole to help getting the ball up. Of all Mizuno's these are probably the most game improvement "blades" ..... MP-33 is much more like a blade or Muscle Back.... TTFN.

oh I typed in favorite mizuno iron or something like that and came across a huge thread on a golf forum, cant remember the name of it, but its a popular one. Mind you the discussion started like in 2007. It was just like mp-32 is better, the next post mp-33 FTW, the next post "nothing can compare to the mp-32", next post "i think the mp-67", next post "Ive always liked the mp-32, next post " gotta give love for the mp-33". haha you get my point.

It seems like with the mp67, they tried to combine two of the most favorite mp irons, the mp-32 and the mp33

Bummer - I thought there was an insightful Mizuno forum somewhere I was missing out on. Maybe this is it.

The tire market is an exponentially greater than the golf market here in the U.S. They are a tire manufacturer first and foremost.

I believe they are very strong in the asian golf market.

      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.

      2026 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      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.
