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.

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.

    • I never heard dislike for them.  From my perspective, they are just like any other club. Though, they were always probably over-priced, until recently as other club manufacturers have been raising prices the past 5+ years. You had to wait for them to go on sale, which you can get them closer to other club manufacturers.  They sell good clubs. Nothing crazy..
    • Why do so many people dislike PXG clubs and constantly criticize them? All the folks at my club and especially online, I never hear good things about them except from people who bought them and defend them. They look fine to me but curious is there some sort of quality issue or is it just stereotyping the buyers.
    • I have the LM1 launch monitor and I’ve been very impressed. I agree with your assessment and it’s very accurate for me and ease of use is wonderful. The price point of $199 is very hard to beat with this form factor and performance. I was previously using a PRGR.
