Summary: Well I am going to have to be different. I went from a set of standard R7 irons to these and it was to big of a jump. I know I could "Hang in there" and "Become a better ball-striker" but with a full time+ job and family, I just want to go play and have fun. To me these were alot more tough to be consistant with and mis-hits are Pretty Darn penal. Most of my buddies say I putt and drive the ball like a single digit and that irons are my weak point. I tried for two months and then have thrown the Mizunos back on Ebay after driving my 14 handicap up to a 19 just from the club change. I have now gone back to a Middle of the road, game improvement Iron ( will not say which as I am not here to endorse clubs) and shot a 13 stroke-over adjusted handicap score with only one trip to the range with the new clubs. What I take away from this experience is that these clubs are for either a 5-9 Hcp. or a higher Hcp. player who is a great ball striker. IMHO

Summary: I bought these irons to replace a set of MP30s. This was definitely a great idea. I'm not striking them great just yet, but I am hitting them better than the MP30s. One reason may be due to a different shaft. My MP57s have Project X 5.0 vs the DG S300 in the MP30s.
The MP57s are easy to hit. Heck, I'm not even afraid to pull out the 4 iron on the fairway when I need to layup.
The feel of the irons is great. I recommend to anyone wanting to take their game to the next level. Of course, practice will be important.

Summary: Got these used off e-bay for $320, and flat-out love them. Like everyone else says, hit it in the sweet spot and they're like butter, miss and you know it but not too penalizing. Very consistent distances. Maybe 5 yds shorter than my old irons (Mac v-foil 454 w/rifles), but more reliable. Dropped 5 strokes 1st round out.

Summary: I had been playing off and on with some Cobra SS clubs for a few years and after hitting the 57s at the range they were too sweet to pass up (of course I bought them on eBay 475.00.) I thought they were too much club until I hit them. The sweet spot and forgiveness is bigger than advertised. I gained 15 yrds per club and you really feel in control even on misits. Started playing from the blues just so I can hit these irons more often and I actually score better. Last but not least, they are the hottest looking irons offered, period. I almost bought iron covers...almost.

Summary: These irons live up to the hype - big time! I got them a week ago and was already shooting in the low 80's. I have since broken 80 3 times and these irons played a big part. They are true when struck well and the feel and workability is superb. I can highly recommend them!
Customer Service: Very good locally in Ireland
