Mizuno MX-100 versus the MX-900

[VicF]

Does anyone know the difference between the MX-100 and the MX-900.  I like the MX-900 because they feel like blades but I feel that they are a little harder to hit than I would like (especially 5, 6, and 7 irons).  Are the MX-100's easier to hit?  What are the differences between sets?

They both look pretty good. The MX-900 looks a lot like the MP-25.

The MX-100 is a very typical GI type cast iron design whereas the MX-900 is a "hybrid iron" design that was the precursor to the MX-950, MP-H4, and MP-H5.  They use a combination of half-hollow and fully hollow irons as you progress through the set from the short irons to the long irons.  IMHO, the MX-900 feels nothing like a good blade/muscleback iron.

If you're looking for an opinion on which is better for you then there just isn't enough info here to point you in any particular direction, but I think the MX-900 is plenty forgiving without having to go the cast GI irons route.
