MP-60's are the 'in' club. I know a number of people that bought them a year ago and only the 3 index still has them in his bag. Everyone loves the 6,7,8,9,W but for the 10-15 index guy the overall feeling was that they lost distance with their 3,4,5 irons.
Myself and two others bought the MP-30's and had zero complaints. The two others guys still have the 30's in their bags and I lost mine to my son (plays HS golf and wanted and upgrade from his Clevelands)... and I wanted to try the new Rifle Project X Flighted shafts... so I had to make a set of KZG Evolutions for myself.

Both great clubs but if I had the choice I would go for MP60. Soft as butter~~

that is a great point. the 60's are harder to hit with the longer irons. If you are interested in the 60's, you can always cut up a set. depending on how well you hit long irons, you can vary the make-up. I got the 5-6 in the MX-25's and 7-P in the MP-60's, then I fill in hybrid for a 4I.

mizuno will make up any set you want with any clubs you want with any shaft they have, you just have to ask.

StickBoy!

I have 30's and love them. I have been tempted by the 60's but keep hearing they hit the ball HIGHER. I do not want to hit the ball higher. Out here trajectory is important to stay under the wind.

Can't really go wrong with either, but there is a reason 30's are a signature product from Mizuno despite being several model seasons old.

You will be very happy with Mizunos.

Im in that market right now.

I hit the MP 30,32,60 and 67(by accident), and the titleist 695 CB, 704, 735, 755, 775 and 804 yesterday.


I narrowed it down to the 60s and the 695 CBs. I hit my irons pretty high, not very far. 100 mph driver speed.

I hit the clubs at two different places, one indoor and then one on a range. Inside, the MP60s were the best feeling ones i hit, they felt like butter. I didnt like the ball flight and was more impressed with the titleist's and will be going with the 695 CB.

If i was hitting blindfolded, id go with the 60, but i guess the trajectory on the 695 was better suited for my game. The 30's felt nice too, but I like to punish myself for bad shots. I dont think you could go wrong with either.


Just go demo them!

The 60s and the 695.CB are very silimar but I too would go with the 695.CBs if you are looking at a good cavity back.

I am not sure if you are looking for forgiveness, feel, control or a combination of all them. I am in the market too, I currently play TM LTs with a 6.0 rifle and after all the hitting of new clubs I pulled the trigger on MP-67 /w 5.5 ProjectX.

The 60s didn't feel all that much different then my LTs and the 695.CB I hit really well one day but not another, this went back and forth a few times and I chalked it up to them being still too forgiving for me. When I don't hit a good shot with the 67s I knew it by how the club felt in my hands, when I hit it well I could tell the difference and that is one of the main reasons why I am upgrading my irons in the first place. I want to feel bad shots as much as good shots.

I am leaning towards Mizuno's for my next set. I am currently playing a friends old set of MP-33's. I am not good enough to hit them consistent every shot, but still manage to shoot around 90. My main issue is driving though, so I am wondering if the MP-60's will offer me a little more forgiveness? I really enjoy the setup, look, and feel of the Mizuno's.

I once was around a 10 index, and I am wanting to work back down...can I handle the 60's?

Hey All,

I just wanted to say Hello, I am new to the forums. Anyways, I am in the market of buying new Irons.....they lost my clubs in a warehouse, long story. I bought a Cleveland Comp, Stiff Shaft 460cc and a Titleist 904, 15 degree stiff shaft as well.

Now I can buy any set of irons I want, I tried some callaway / cleveland they were alright. I have always been turned on by the Ben Hogan's and Mizuno MP 60s, but what do you guys feel about the 60's and 30's ...as far as feel and weight....

    • Let’s consider then if Tiger hadn’t had all those surgeries then too. I’m thinking 21 majors and about 100 total PGA victories against much stiffer competition.
    • No. Nicklaus, Woods, Hogan Through Age 43.xlsx - Google Sheets   Hogan got hit by a bus head on collision February 2nd, 1949. Prior to that, in his career, here  are his career totals/rates: Tournaments: 227 (19 per year) Cuts: 214 out of 227 (94.3% cut made rate) Wins: 51 (22.5% win rate- 6.4 wins per year) Runner Ups: 37 Thirds: 23 Top 3%: 110 top 3s (227 tournaments entered)- 48.45% After the accident in Feb 2nd, 1949: Tournaments: 73 (3.6/year) Cuts: 71 of 71 (100%) Wins: 13 (17.8% win rate- 2.1 wins/year) Runner Ups: 7 Thirds: 4 Top 3%: 24 top 3s (73 tournaments entered)- 32.87% He was only able to play in 300 tournaments, career, because he got hit by that bus. Nicklaus was able to play in 578 events. Hell even Tiger got to play in 378 events.   Woods, Nicklaus, Hogan Through Age 43: Majors: Jack: 92 Majors Played 18.4% Win Rate 48.9% Top 3 Rate 58.7% Top 5 Rate Hogan: 37 Majors Played 24.3% Win Rate 43.2% Top 3 Rate 54% Top 5 Rate Woods: 84 Majors Played 17.9% Win Rate 30.9% Top 3 Rate 38.1% Top 5 Rate   All Tournaments, Through Age 43: Jack: 417 Tournaments  17.0% Win Rate 38.1% Top 3 Rate Hogan: 254 Tournaments 24.8% Win Rate 51.2% Top 3 Rate Woods: 358 Tournaments  23.1% Win Rate 36.6% Top 3 Rate Now, let’s consider if Hogan wasn’t nearly paralyzed getting in a near fatal car accident at age 35…… Oh and, of course, he also missed 3 prime seasons in WWII.
    • With scratch being a highly sought after goal, what are the realistic chances of reaching said goal after age, 30, 40, 50, etc...? 
    • LIV made a big mistake scheduling an event this week. A lot of the top LIV players are eligible to play on the DP World Tour and they could have been playing at the Scottish Open this week with the top players on the PGA Tour. It would have been a good chance for exposure outside of the Majors. Nobody watches LIV golf. 
    • The equipment rules say a club is an implement designed for striking a golf ball, and consists of a clubhead and shaft, possibly  a grip.  If it doesn't fit that definition, it's something else, perhaps a training device.  But a 50 inch driver is still a club, non conforming.  A club with stickers on the face is non conforming, but counts as a club, and me made conforming by removing the stickers.
