Friend that owns a rather large and successful golf shop gave me a heads up that he just took a 3-SW set (9 clubs) of Mizuno MP-29 Masters Edition in on trade.  Said they were only released in Japan, and that they have the Masters emblem on the back of the club head.

Anyone seen such a thing...or even heard of it?  My Googling abilities have been put to the test, and I could not come up with a single photo.

If they are indeed that rare...which would seem that they are...I may be picking them up just as a collector's item.  Thoughts?  Photos?  Anyone?

I cannot seem to edit the initial post, but I have a hypothetical for everyone.  If someone bought the aforementioned irons, and came home with a 3-SW (9 clubs) set of these with all matching serials and in near mint condition, what might be a fair price?  Also...what the heck are they specifically?  I do not think they are from the MP-29 line as they do not show any relief near the toe in the short irons.

Note the sweet white alignment sticks in the putter well.  Courtesy of this wonderful site.

That's for the alignment sticks, right?

Mizuno USA says they have no information other than it is a JDM "somewhat" limited edition iron based on a relationship with Augusta National.  Due to a language barrier, I have no idea how to get in touch with an English speaking member of the Mizuno Japan customer support team.

Anyone have anything they can add?

Somewhat concerned I may have been had by the golf shop. The issue is that I was looking for a playable set of irons when I bought these. Now it seems these have an incredible playability factor, but everyone I ask says I am a fool for taking them to a course instead of hanging them on the wall.

I have a set 3-9 plus three metals 1,3,5, and a bag with the Augusta and Masters logos.  All very successfully used. They were made and sold only in Japan circa 1989.

      Hello all.  I'm about to be 57 yrs old, started playing when I was 16, and have quit and restarted the game more times than I can count.  I had started playing a weekly round with a friend, and finally made the jump to Senior A shafted Tour Edge clubs.  Instantly gained 10 yds with an easier swing (why didn't I make that jump sooner???).  Glad to be a part of the group. Cheers all,

      I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
