Ive narrowed it down to the Mp-67's and the 695's what are the pros and cons of these two sets, or is there any other sets that I should try before I make my final decision?

Driver- 9.5 905R
Woods- V-Steel 15*
Hybrid- Rescue Dual 16*
Irons- 3-P Project X 5.5 Wedges- Vokey 54* and 58* Putter- Scotty Ball- Bridgestone B330-S

i voted neither, but its many because i dont know why anyone would play clubs with extremely little to no forgiveness. and i hope your a 6 because you have perfect ball strking but can't putt because if not i'm afraid your handicapp might go up.

just my 2cents

I think I'm a bit biased on this subject.

I love my MP 67's. I've had Pings all my golfing life and never thought I was a good enough ball striker to play blades. Since I've had these Mizuno irons my handicap dropped by 3 strokes.

What's in my bag
Driver: Taylor Made R7 425 9.5 degrees UST Proforce 65 shaft
3 Wood: Taylor Made V Steel 15 degrees
Taylor Made Rescue Dual 22 degrees (UST IROD shaft)
Irons: Mizuno MP-67 (bent 1 degree upright)Gap Wedge: Mizuno R Series Black Nickle 52 Sand Wedge: Mizuno R Series Black Nickle...

Have you hit the MP 67's??????

These aren't your fathers old blades from the 60's. The "cut muscle" in the club make it feel as good if not better than my old Ping I3 Blades. I think you're being unfair.

thats what I was thinking, and also the 695's have the same type of cut muscle blade as the 67's, the pro that i take lesson's from told me to get which ever ones I can geta better deal on because of how similar they are, is that true?

I have to disagree. MP-67 feels better than 695MB to me, besides they're sexy as hell. They simply define the muscle in muscle back blades.

You forgot the Cobra Carbon CB . Great set of clubs . Easy to hit draws and fades . Not too long but more on pinpoint accuracy in your shot . Not as expensive as the competiton . You will love the feel of every shot made .

I forgot to add .. Have them fitted with Project X shafts in 7.0 or tour stiff . With the savings you get you can afford to splurge on these better shafts .

The 67's are just such a nice feel, with about the same workability and forgiveness of the 695's. The grain flow forged just feels so great in my MP-60's

Hi there,

I wanted to open a new thread about the Cobra Carbon CB and the Titleist 755, but because I'm just a 'newbie' on this forum, I'm not allowed to do that. Which of those 2 do you guys recommend? I'm a 22 year old with a 12 handicap who's looking for clubs to get into the single digits. The cobra's cost 699$, the 755's 799$. I was really impressed to see the CB's at #1 in the GOLF hot list, but then again, they weren't even mentioned in the Golf Digest hot list :s ? Hope to get some feedback here :) thanks anyway.

G10 driver 9° TFC / stiff
V-Steel 3 wood 15° /stiff
Carbon CB 3 - PW / stiff
Vokey Spin Milled 56°

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By StuM ·

      Can't brag about a 50 last night but it was the best round of my season (4 rounds of 9 holes) so I am not as upset as I could be.  One thing I am noticed is that I got a little more confident in my long hybrids and I attempted a couple longer shots that typically I would just lay up and those holes were a big part of the lower score.  Not every shot was great but good enough that they helped.  I even shot par on a Par 5 after taking a drop.  On that hole I would usually lay-up to @ 100 yards and often miss the green altogether with my 3rd shot (or worse chunk my approach and put it in the waste area).  Yesterday I went for it from @ 200 yards out with wind in my face and landed in the waste area short of the green.  My drop left @ 40 yards in and I stuck it to 3 feet for my par putt.  If I had laid up I would have avoided the penalty stroke but likely would not have been on the green in regulation and may still have been working for par.  By going for it I gave myself a chance at birdie and still saved par. I do not plan on being crazy aggressive but I think I tend to be too conservative at times so I will "go for it" a little more often going forward.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 14 (15 May 24) - Worked with the SW in the backyard, short pitches from 10yds up to 30yds.   Focused on ball placement in stance - ball back, ball forward, ball center.  Afterwards moved to inside the shop to work on putting pace on the rug - putting one way gives about an 8' putt, going the other a 6' before bumping onto the adjacent rug.  Focused there on the line - picking a target point about 18"-24" out and making sure the ball rolls through that point.

      When someone is trying to validate their choice, statements concluding with "right" are often the MO.  Too bad he thinks he has to keep defending his decision, just do like guys like DJ and HVIII - take the money, play the tourneys and keep quiet.

      Scottie & Rory on Wedge Game

      By saevel25 ·

      I liked Rory talking about keeping it shallow. I think a lot of people imagine steep as really steep. Trackman has a PW attack angle at 5 degrees. Pitch shots you probably want less than 5-degrees.  Here is 5 degrees, the dashed line. It isn't much at all.  People probably need to feel like the club is stupidly shallow if they hit it really steep.  Some good tidbits of information though.
