Hi all, first post but have been reading here of some time now. Love the reviews, best on the web I think. Had been shopping for new irons but thinking about just reshafting mine. I am looking for better feel/feedback in my Mizuno Comp EZ irons. Currently have stock DG Gold Plus S300's.

I am looking for a shaft that will be a little more consistent on distance, but mainly that will help give me more feedback from the club face. I want to be able to tell by feel, before I even look up, and know if I hit on the toe or the heel, thin or fat. Just not getting that with the gold plus. It's either smooth = sweet spot or harsh = not sweet spot LoL.

My Iron SS is 82 Driver 102. My tempo is pretty quick on downswing but working on smoothing it out.

The irons take .355 taper tip. I hit a set of 3-4 yr old blades the other day at GG and could really feel where the contact is but too much club for me. They had stiff DG S300 shafts FWIW.

Anyone have experience with these irons back in the day that might have some firsthand advice to share?

Thanks

I bought some Comp EZ's new several years ago. A couple years ago, I was in the same boat. I wanted to change out the shafts. As their were only a few options on the tapered shafts, I chose to have the heads drilled out to accept a .370 shaft. I needed more height, so I had Release shafts installed.

So, the heads can be drilled to accept a .370 shaft.

So did the Release shafts do the trick for you? Did they help the feel where you could tell without looking up whether you mishit on the toe or the heel?

Actually, I haven't been out much in the past year or so, but I liked the initial results. I was hitting the ball higher and about a club longer. They have always spun well. Of course, they are forged, so you usually get good feedback on your shot, where the miss (if any) was.

    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
