  1. What gram shaft do you use? In what flex? What brand shaft? What is your driver swing speed?
  2. Right pocket: 1 tee and my ball marker Left pocket: glove when putting *I dont like to have much in my pockets...I dont like when they buldge
  3. right now leaning with the mp60's with the rifle flighted shafts...either 6 or 6.5
  4. what did you end up deciding?
  5. Has anybody hit this shaft? I have been demo-ing the new Nike Sumo with the Proto stiff shaft. I really like it, but am thinking of ordering the 75 or 85 gram shaft. I whip the 65g around like it is a wet noodle. (110mph driver speed) I am trying to decide whether to order the the 85 or 75 in stiff, or maybe jump to the X-stiff. My only concern with the X is that I will lower my launch angle too much... Any thoughts?
  6. A little update: I have been struggling trying to decide what irons to buy...My situation is the same...I am shooting high 80's, but just joined a club with an amazing practice facility. So, I should really be able to improve my game going forward. I am hitting some older MP-33's, and I am getting better with them...my main issue is my DRIVING. I am not wanting to buy a improvement iron (like the G5) and wish I had another set in a few months... I think I can handle the MP-60's, seeing I am decent with the 33's right now... Feedack on those thoughts? Also, I will be ordering these irons through a freind who is a baseball rep with Mizuno, so I will need to give him all my measurables. What shafts should I go with? I swing the 6 iron 90-95mph and the driver 105-115mph. I am hearing good things about the Rifle flighted or project x's. would I be a 6.0 or a 6.5? Thanks for any insight...
  7. any others have any experience with either the Rifle Project X shaft or the Flighted Rifle shaft?
  8. thanks for the link
  9. I am leaning towards Mizuno's for my next set. I am currently playing a friends old set of MP-33's. I am not good enough to hit them consistent every shot, but still manage to shoot around 90. My main issue is driving though, so I am wondering if the MP-60's will offer me a little more forgiveness? I really enjoy the setup, look, and feel of the Mizuno's. I once was around a 10 index, and I am wanting to work back down...can I handle the 60's?
  10. Ok...I am about to order a set of Mizuno MP-60's and I am leaning very heavily towards upgrading the shafts to the Rifle Project X shaft. I am needing a little feedback on how the Rifle shafts are measured. I am right in between a stiff and x-stiff in the Dynamic Golf shaft, so by default, I have been playing the stiff. I hit my 6 iron around 180-190. I have a high swing speed. (Driver-110mph) I am thinking I would need either the 6.0 or the 6.5...any insights?A Also, and feedback on the Project X shafts?
  11. So...I had got with a club fitter today and hit some ping g5's. I had a lesson prior to this fitting, and hit my old MP-33's during the lesson. Once I started hitting the pings, they felt so bulky and clunky. I really think I want to stick with Mizuno's even if I have to work out some things in my swing. I think that the MP-60's may give me the benefits of the blade-like irons, with a little forgiveness thrown in there. Any thoughts on that? (I am planning on hitting the Mizuno's in the coming week) And with finding the right set of irons, I REALLY want to get the right shafts! I am 6'4 and swing hard. I am trying to tone my swing down and get more tempo and make it more smooth. I guess I am looking at the Dynamic Gold s300, s400, and then the rifle shafts. (flighted..i guess?) Any advice on the shaft selection would be great...
  12. What shafts do you guys have in your Mizuno irons? And what is your swingspeed?
  13. I was wanting some feedback on what club most of you chip with around the green. I know this will vary depending on a number of circumstances. Ex- what club do you grab when you are on the fringe with a chip between 10-20 yards? -I have the vokey wedges (52, 56, 60 degree). I am struggling with consistency in this shot....I switch from the 56 to the 60 depending on how I am hitting each.
  14. Where do you get custom fit by mizuno? Or are you referrirng to a pro shop who carries the mizuno line?
  15. thanks guys...that is what I was leaning towards...the sweetest feeling is hitting the MP-33 on the sweet spot...it is like you dont even feel the ball! but when you mis-hit it, your hands fall off, and your shot balloons to the rough.
