I am in the market for a new set of irons and I have looked at the Taylor Made R7 TP's, Mizuno; MP 60's, MP 32's, Callaway; X-forged, X-20 Tour and the Titleist 755's.

I'm looking for experienced advise and/or any suggestions?

My vote would be for the MP60's but according to what's in your bag currently, you've already made your decision...

I still have time to change my mind... That's why I asked.

Why the 60's? Should I expect them to be harder to hit than the R7 TP's?

The 60's are fantastic clubs. Easier to hit than 33's, 37's, etc.
As strange as it may sound, go find the new Adams Idea Pro irons. I went to my local range, and a sales guy suggested I try them out. I was suprised at how soft they felt, and how easy it was to work the ball. Plus, if I remember correctly, they have True Temper's new 'Black Gold' (or something like that) shaft, which is great (its TT's version of the rifle).

Clubs
Titleist 983E 9.5 degrees (stiff Fujikura 757)
Titleist 904F 13.0 degrees (stiff Graffaloy Blue)
Callaway Big Bertha 5 wood (steel)
Mizuno MP-37 3-9 (DG S300)Cleveland Form Forged 48 degree Cleveland RTG 56 degreeCleveland RTG 60 degreeScotty Cameron Newport Tei3, 35"Titleist ProV1Ping...

MP-60's are easily the best feeling of the irons you list, but also the least foregiving (with the exception of the 32's).

I am also in the market, and am stuck between the MP-60's (with a possible substitue MX-25 long irons) or the 755's. The TM's and Calley's are just too busy looking.

      Water in Bunker

      By iacas ·

      Sorry, I will disagree. You got a penalty because you hit it somewhere and didn't want to play it from there. Bunkers are not the general area. If you had hit it into temporary water in the general area, you'd be entitled to relief. You hit it into a hazard, a bunker. Why should you get free relief when you hit it into a bunker? If someone else hit it into a different part of the bunker, without water, they'd not get a drop for free out of the bunker. Heck, it'd cost them two strokes if they didn't have an ACC and wanted to drop it out of the bunker.

      Water in Bunker

      I love golf, but we have some really dumb rules. Like this one, you get a penalty stroke because it rained.

      No. If there was a place no closer to the hole that afforded some relief, you could have dropped there. If you were truly as far away from the hole as you could, in the "back" of the bunker, then… your options were basically to play it as it lies (lied? lay?) or take the penalty stroke and drop behind the bunker (keeping the point where the ball was between your drop and the hole).

      Day 121 - Had a tournament today, not my best. I was hitting everything off the heel.
