Hi. Im new here ad have a question. 1st off im a 9.8 handicap (although I just recently shot an 89) ~~ So I have a set of Titleist 710 cb's . Im missing the 9 iron (lost it somewhere) and a new one will cost around 165. Used they are about 90- 125. I ran in to a set of Mizuno Mp-30s for 150 ( 3-P). Now ive never owned Mizuno irons. I hit them today and they felt like butter (I love my 710 btw). I now the Mp-30s are older but I.M.O iron technology doesn't change. So my question should I ditch my 710s for the Mp30s or fork up for another 9 iron. I don't know if its a lateral step or a step down or up going to an older set of Mizunos. Thoughts?

If the Mizuno's fit you well, you might as well go that route IMO… always nice to have a second set of clubs. I wouldn't say that iron technology doesn't change but it doesn't change much, especially with regards to player's irons. I'd say that it would be a lateral step.

I agree with Tristan, there isn't much that changes with a forged players cavity back.

Are you saying a new 710 9 iron would be $165?  You can get one of the 714 irons for $140.  It might be worth it to check out ebay for used 710 sets since you like them so much. Here's a set for $279

      I’m going to go out on a limb and say that maybe if Jason spent less time on his clothes and more on golf he would win more.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      So, my league starts next week, and I have a golf trip in two weeks. I am thinking no matter what I do, I will have to do my left leg and downswing turning piece. At least this turning piece helps me negate shanking the shot.  I probably shanked the foam ball about 10x in a row yesterday. Given, I was doing downswing work with not much caring about the body rotation. I was struggling to feel the same thing from two days ago. Where I was able to feel the arm piece and the turning piece working together. Yesterday, my body turn was just destroying my arms down piece.  That said, it’s not like I have a great feel for where the club is in space. Especially with how fast the downswing is. If I do the arms downswing piece with the turn piece better. I just feel those two things. Then after I am going into the finish I am like, "Oh, that was center of the clubface". I am glad the clubface found the ball. Maybe that is normal when you are trying to fix your mechanics. You are so hyper focused on the hitting the swing feel that the feel for the club is just gone.  I’ve watched YouTube videos where they talk about how correct lower-body mechanics give you the feeling of having tons of time in the downswing. I’m like, BS! there is no time. If anything, it feels faster now. 🤣 I do notice that the clubface stays more open past impact, less flippy. Not like I am trying to do that. Actually, with the downswing arm piece, I am trying to feel like I am rolling my wrist (closing the club a bit more).
