Up for trade is a set of Mizuno MP-57 irons in very good condition. The irons are standard length and lie with Dynamic Gold S300 shafts. The grips are stock Golf Pride Mizuno branded M-21. The grips are like new and have 99% of their life left in them. The grooves on the irons are all in great shape and there is no browning on any of the faces. The irons have a bit of bag chatter and the regular dings in the sole due to the soft forged metal. The picture of the face is the PW, which is by far the worst looking face. I really like these irons, but I prefer the look and feel of pure blades. The shafts are also a little too much for my deliberate iron swing, so I'm looking for a set of blade irons with regular flex shafts.

As far as trades I'm open to, I like Mizuno MP-14, MP-33, and MP-29 if you have a set in similar condition to the MP-57s. I'd also take a set of TN-87 if anybody wants to let go of some of those

I'm also looking for Bridgestone J33B or J36B, Srixon Pro-100, Nike Forged blades (I prefer the VR TW blades over the old forged blades, but I'll consider either).

Certain models of Hogan blades, MacGregor blades , and Maxfli Australian blades will do the job as well.

If you have any other irons you think I may be interested in, offer away. I'm willing to add or accept cash as appropriate for the deal. Thanks for looking!

Not sure if you have any interest, but I have a set (3-PW) of Tour Edge Exotics CNC Forged Blades that I would consider trading.  They have KBS stiff shafts in them but I thought I'd throw it out there for your consideration.  Feel free to email or simply reply with any questions.

I thank you very much for the offer, but I'm holding out for a set of muscleback irons with regular shafts.

    • Couple of things. In the UK they play a lot of stableford competitions. 2 points for a net par, 1 for a bogey, 3 for a birdie, 4 for an eagle, 0 for a double bogey or worse. Playing to your handicap typically means getting 36 points, being 18 x 2 points. If your course rating is a long way different from par, then playing to your handicap would mean getting 32 points or 40 points or some such. I wouldn't be at all surprised if that input from the R&A is the reason for the CR-Par adjustment, which brings it to 36 points is playing to your handicap. A round of net pars really should be playing to your handicap. Now it is. Yay. I would think the people most likely to be upset about the CR-Par adjustment would be 6 or 7 indexes whose course is par 72, with a 74/140 rating. 6.5 x 140/113 + 74 - 72 = 10. So the "single figure" golfer who has probably defined himself that way for a long time is now a 10 and getting double digit strokes. Oof. I must admit I'm a 0.0 right now (sure makes the math easy) and if I play Bethpage Black from the blues, suddenly I'm a 7. That takes a little bit of getting used to. It also means I do have to pay attention to the stroke indices to be sure of whether I'm making the net double bogey adjustment properly.  I do think it's much less likely that NDB is applied properly vs the old system where it was max double bogey or max 7 depending on handicap (I think anyway - I know it was max double bogey at my handicap level - I didn't much care about where it changed or what it changed to). NDB is clearly better, but it does mean people either have to adjust it themselves accurately (questionable) or input their hole by hole scores (also questionable). I do it, because I care about it (and don't tend to make too many scores worse than double and also rarely play courses where I'm giving strokes back to the course and would therefore have max bogey on some holes). I'm sure there are many who don't and will just guess or assume. Under the old system, if I was playing a scratch tournament (which is most of my golf), I didn't care what my course handicap or stroke allocations were. They didn't affect my posted scores at all. Now they do (although the MGA and LIGA post all scores at their events themselves directly - something I am very happy about). That is a complication under the new system - one I think is worth it given the benefits, but a complication all the same.
