Hi!  I just got a set of 2006 Mizuno MP-30 irons that are in great condition.  I did a custom paint fill on the clubs and it looks great.  However I was wondering if there was anything that I could do to make these clubs last a lot longer. The clubs have a few dings and scratches that I would like remove. Can anybody suggest what I can do? Thanks

I just make sure I clean the grooves after each shot and give them a good scrub every couple weeks.  They're soft, forged irons.  They're going to get some nicks and scrapes and scratches in them.  It just gives them character.

Club chatter will cause the irons to get dinged up.  And hitting shots will cause blemishes as well.

Personally, I think you should worry more about the grooves and grips more than anything else.  As Bullitt pointed out, clean the grooves after every shot.  But I also make sure my grips are dry/fresh.  I try and change grips on my set every 4 to 6mo.

There are a few companies that will refinish your iron heads. However, nicks and dings are part of playing forged irons.  These will never effect playability, and may even grow on your over time.  My Titleist ZM set looks pretty rough, but still play great.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I played in an outing a few years ago. The course was wet, and it was windy. We all did bad enough to reward us with a PCC of +1 (If I am remembering this correctly). So all of our differentials went up 1.  So, if that score is part of my best 8 out of 20. That means I am getting 1/8th of a differential improvement. For you to get a PCC, you need enough people submitting their score for handicap during that day. Let's say you were the only person who was submitting the score for handicap, odds are you are not getting a PCC.  Which is fine, because no handicap system can be that nuanced. I don't think you'd want it to be. Still, my statement is correct. It takes into account weather and abnormal difficult conditions.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I’ve been rather surprised how my original question relating to the logic behind “differential vs course handicap” elicited the responses expressed on this thread so far. I suppose it shows that there are many who have given this subject a lot of thought. I personally like the current system for the same reasons stated in the post by saevel25 and it works very well in our league. I just needed to get the reasoning/logic clear in my head so I could explain it succinctly to those who had questions. Regarding the ongoing discussion, the only tweak we make is only the scores made in league competition count. (We don’t use GHIN, we do the calculation ourselves.) The only additional thought I had is perhaps the powers that be can come up with a method, when doing the differential calculation, of giving greater weight to the rounds played more recently than those from 20 rounds ago. I’ve been testing this with an idea I had similar to the way colleges calculate GPA’s based on credits offered by different classes, but honestly, the complexity it adds to the calculation isn’t worth the trouble as any change made has proven to be inconsequential.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By 5amZ · Posted

      Day 102 11-21 Early practice session today. Flow drill, getting to lead side, and a bit of skills work. Really need to slow down and ingrain the "rotating" to lead side.  Feels weird-which is great, it means changes, I'm just going too fast right now.
