I have been playing Infiniti 302 irons for about a year. Cavity back, GI that are strong lofted and plenty of offset.

I had been looking into some new irons and had thought about getting some JPX-800's.

A set of Mizuno MP 60's came up on Craigslist that caught my eye but I missed out on them.

Well, I decided to do some research on them and found out they are a pretty forgiving.

I decided to see if I could find a set on Ebay cheap enough that I could give them a try and not regret it if they were not for me.

I was able to get a set of MP 60's for $119 that is 5-PW. Great shape, standard length. I added an inch to the length and re-gripped with GP Tour Wrap Mid-size.

I have really been pleased with how well they feel! Man, are they sweet!

They are not lofted as strong as my other irons, but the yardage seems to be close to the same.

I have not had a chance to play a round of golf with them yet, but have hit 100-150 balls each evening with them.

Can't wait to get them to the course!

Just wondering if anyone else is playing MP 60's and what your  thoughts are on them.

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
