Hello all, New to the forum and looking for some opinions.

I'm in the market for a new set of irons and have narrowed it down to a short list.

The MP 15 and MP 54s made the cut, but I'm having trouble finding much difference between the two, besides the looks and design.

I've hit them both, only the 6 iron, and they didn't perform or feel much different. Haven't found a place that has a full set of demos so I could hit the longer irons...which I suspect may make the difference. With the 54s having the 'milled pocket' I would assume that would help with some forgiveness in the longer irons...can anyone out there confirm this? Specifically compared to the 15s?

I've read multiple reviews on both sets and couldn't find much differences in terms of Forgiveness, Workability and Feel in the opinions of users/reviewers...but didn't see any comparisons done between these two.

Anyone care to opine?

Thanks

Haven't played with either but the 15's win in the looks department imho. Can't really go wrong though.

Can't go wrong with Mizuno irons if these will fit your game. The 54 looks better IMO.

I believe the MP 54 has a little more offset, especially in the longer irons. As you stated, the MP 54 would also be a little more forgiving

Going to hit both of them again today, maybe I'll just get both.

4,5,6 in the 54s and 7-P with the 15s.

I think i'm starting to think about it too much. Might have to pull the trigger this weekend.

I wouldn't say you're over thinking it. I was going to go with a mixed set of forgiving long irons and blade-like scoring irons, then I found the MP H4 set which was just what I wanted.

Just ordered some MP 15s, went with the whole set since I was hitting them so good. Ended up fitting for dynamic gold x100, and hopefully they will be what I've needed. Looking forward to hitting them in the next week or so

Update, in case anyone is interested.

have 5 rounds in with my new MP-15s and am loving them. Am scoring good and now trending at a 2.9 going to be my lowest index yet.

Shot my course best 74 last weekend and gearing up for the club championship in a couple weeks. Hope to do well.

Thought the fitting system Mizuno has is great. As well as all the shaft options. If not for that, I'd probably still be playing a lighter, more flexible shaft than I am now. Although I can't be sure the shafts are the reason I'm hitting better or just the confidence I have over the ball now.

Either way, i'm enjoying the new sticks.

Nice.

I'm just jealous of all the right handed players getting a choice of all the Mizuno models. Oh well, the MP-25 and MP-S5 I hear will be available for lefties . Too bad no MP-15, though.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.

      Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
