Bill Weiting is the fellow from www.conquestgolf.com that makes my clubs for me. My irons are Infinity AW-3 with SK Fiber stiff shaft built to my spec's. I did this originally to help my problems with tennis elbow, but what has happened is irons so well balanced and weighted for me that has it helped my elbows and increased the consistantcy of my ball striking. Last April 1st my index was between3.8 and 4.1, and I put the Infinity's in play. I finished the season with a 1.5 with the only thing different I did all season was to play these irons......bwgolfer

mizuno makes the finest blades. ive hit tm320 and tps and an assortment of titleist but cannot find a better iron than my mp30s . cavity back forged blade for great control. buttery feel, easy to shape and with rifle shafts just the best feeling and looking iron ive hit to date.

take a look at the better single digit players at your club, chances are youll see zunos in the bag.

The new Mizuno MP-67's feel like butter to me. You would swear they are cavity backs. The ball flight seems a little higher than my old MP-37's but I'm gonna re-shaft them and see if that helps.

are you talking about the project xs because those are awesome i got mor distance in them then the dynamic gold

Cool. Please do let me know once you change it to rifle flighted. I am also a Dynamic Gold person but I am curious about the rifle flighted shafts. I did try with my friend's rifle shaft 6.0 (not flighted) and it really did feel SOFT at impact but I did feel that the balance of the shaft was different from the DG S300. Kind of felt lighter?? if that is the correct description although the weight of the shaft was pretty much at par with the DGs. Anyway please do let me know because I am also planning to make a new purchase of MP60 with rifle flighted as well. Thanks.

I put the Rifle Project X 6.0 in my PING s58's. Absolutely best move I have made in iron shafts IMHO.

right now i have some titleist 690s. got em right before the 695s came out. theres not really much difference besides the Z design anyways. BUT i do like the feel of mizuno irons. if i were to switch right now id pick mizuno or a new set of titleist irons. taylormades dont feel as good as titleist or taylormade imo.

I voted other. I think my irons are Makers Pride??? My uncle made up the set for me. I'm not sure if they were a set he bought or if he bought all the things to make the clubs. They work for me I guess. I won't be getting my tour card anytime soon though.

In my Pro-Walker stand bag:

I have a set of Cleveland CG4's. They are heavier than most other sets, however I find I hit these clubs better than any others I have tried. WHen purchasing this set, I demoed Nike, Mizuno, Callaway, Ping and of course Cleveland. The bottom line is CG4's fit me, what fits another player is totally up th them. The only way to find out is to find a teaching pro or in some cases a sales person who knows their clubs and can help make recomendations to best fit your needs.

I had a set of mp 60 with DGS300 and went to mp67 with project x 6.0. I like the ball flight much better, they stop on a dime!

Mizuno MP-32's. I've used them all (at least what models there are for lefties) and I haven't had anything even close to them. Great feel, great look, great trajectory, you name it.

My draw is your cut.

I've used a variety of different sets (mostly hand downs to start) but most recently I have owned Mizuno Tzoids, then KZG ZO Blades and now Ping i10. I was very skeptical about going to a cast club after having forged for so long, but once I hit them and went through Pings fitting process it wasn't much of a decision. Now, I admit they were no where near as soft as the Mizuno MP-57s but I've got no regrets! Great feel, great workability and great forgiveness with the near look of a player's club!

TaylorMade R7 TPs. In the last 2 1/2 years , Ive played Cleveland CG2, Titleist 755, Bridgestone J33, Nike Pro Combo Tours, and the TPs ( I know, thats a lot of changing - I guess I am fickle as can be.... I think Im set on the TaylorMade set for a while,tho.

The CG2s were nice enough, the J33s were better than I was , as were the 755s. I liked the Nikes enough that I bought a spare set...and then I played the R7 TPs...they seem to be a perfect match for me and my game...
