This afternoon i went to the driving range and tested out the mizuno mx-25, and the callaway x-20. I was very impressed with both of them. At address the callaways were much more appealing to my eyes, and they felt better compared to the mizuno's. however, performance-wise i was completely blown away with the mx-25's, compared to my clubs (which are garbage, i paid 200 dollars for an entire club set, bag and all) i was hitting about 20 yards longer consistantly and a little longer than the callaways, both were way more forgiving than my current clubs. All in all both sets blew me away, i didnt realize how much difference a set of good clubs really makes. Now i just need to decide which ones i want, any input would be greatly appreciated,

In the bag:
driver: Sumo2 9.5
3/5 wood: 15/17
hybrids: 3/4 rhythm
irons: cci 4-pw, swputter: newport 2 detourballs: nxt

It's a rush!

I like both iron sets. The MX-25 feels so soft and lovely. My distance was greater with the Callaway, but dispersion was tighter with the Mizuno. At address and overall, the MX-25 looked fine. Strangely, at address I see only the ball and not the club.

FYI, Mizuno MX-25 is forged and Callaway X-20 isn't. Forged irons set is much softer than cast.

Even only with the brand names head on, for me Mizuno feels better than Callaway. I had Callaway Fusion back then and now Mizuno MP-60. Moreover, I've hit X-20 before and Callaway forged model X-Forged, IMO, they don't come close to Mizuno in term of feel.
What's in the bag:
Driver: r7 SuperQuad 10.5° ~ UST Proforce V2 65g Regular
Wood: 906F4 18.5° ~ Aldila VS Proto 80g Stiff
Irons: MP-60 3-PW ~ True Temper Tour Concept S3
Wedges: Vokey Oil Can 252.08, SM56.10 & SM60.08Putter: Marxman Mallet 33"

The Callaway X-20s are beautiful clubs, I've been thinking of trading up for some time now. Had the X-12s since they came out so its about time for a change and the X-20s are a perfect exchange.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
