I grew up hitting blades and finally bought my first non-blade after I graduated college. That being said, I have since gone back to a blade. I have always loved the feel, feedback and challenge associated with a true blade iron. I am fully aware there are a lot of irons on the market these days which are a lot easier to hit than a blade, but I still like to stick to my blades. To me it's like swinging a wood bat vs. an aluminum bat...it just feels better in my hands.

I've been playing the MP-57's for 4 years. I don't hit the mid irons all that well, so I'm actually going to the AP1's...They are also so much easier to hit out of thick rough.

The only downfall is with the 8-PW...you definitely lose some feel with a thicker CB like the AP1s...Also lose some control I believe.

I've been playing the Nike CCI forged irons since I started approx 3 years ago. I think they will fit into the cavity back category, they are very similar to the Mizuno MP 58.

As of right now i am playing the Mizuno MP-63, so i would say muscleback? Smoothest irons I have ever hit!

I'm currently play'n a combo set of MP 60 & 32's. I want to get a combo set of MP 62 & 68's. I like a cb in the long irons cuz I get a little more distance and they are more consistent than my long iron mb's.

    • Day 21 - Good session with driver and 6i. Hitting real golf balls is quite a bit different from the foam balls, still getting used to that change. 
    • There are so many videos comparing and contrasting everything that I am both overwhelmed and more than a bit skeptical. Your comments above are much more valuable than hours of you-tube videos. Generally speaking, I’d much prefer to read something that someone took the time and trouble to write (such as your comments) than a bunch of videos, or worse, meaningless reviews that seem like they are all cut and paste selections of the same script. I’m more of a RTFM type than a watcher of “instructional” videos. By way of explanation, I don’t watch TV either.  So thanks - I’ll take that under advisement. I have an H3 that I bought for $10 that I’ve been carrying around but not sure why. Seems like a cool club, but I just don’t really know what to do with it.
