Mizuno EZ Forged vs Ping G25

[marvin]

For those who tried/played both, how would you compare these two?

I'm currently gaming Mizuno MP-33 and looking for forgiveness.

Thanks for any input.

I really like Mark, only problem is he doesn't say many negative comments about anything.

This should give you some insight though

i've watch many of Mark's video's on youtube and find them very easy to watch and understand...

and i think his reasoning behind him not having many negative comments about clubs is,

1 i am sure he probably hits all clubs pretty good

and 2 he might be getting said clubs on the free side... and if you start telling people X irons kind of suck lol  in the nice way... and it gets back to said company, they tend to not send you free stuff anymore...

I agree 100%

I just made the comment for the OP as its not going to give a objective point of view on the clubs

I won't say that I am providing a critique of either club because I'm a Mizuno sell out(I did play Ping i3s in high school) but I will say that I've struggled with the same thing that you are struggling with. I love the feel of mp-33s but I struggle with the 6i-4i... You may want to give the jpx-800 pros a shot, last year I switched out my 6i and 4i from mp-33s to jpx-800 pros and bent the 6i three deg strong (don't carry a 5i anymore,extra wedge instead). I will say that they are a little bit "clicky" but they are not bad for a game improvement club. Hope this helps.

Thanks for prompt response, guys.

I watched Mark's videos and indeed he probably never say anything negative about the clubs/equipments he tested. However, I must admit that his videos are informative and quite enjoyable.

As for the JPX800 Pros, I do really like them. I just want to try different set of irons which is not chrome/satin like MP33. Weird, I know. :)

One more question, what makes Ping irons more expensive than other irons? For instance, here in the UK, a used set of G25 (not forged) is about £400 while JPX800 Pro or AP2 712 (forged) are about £250.

One thing that makes Ping more expensive is they control the pricing of their clubs.  For example, a retailer can't mark down Ping clubs to a better price.  They have to sell Ping clubs for what Ping tells them too.  Even store discounts/coupons, etc can't be used to get a better price.

I think all the major OEMs are this way. E.g., if you look at the dollar-off specials Goflsmith runs, almost all the OEMs are excluded (including Mizuno, as I recall).
