Summary: These irons were true love at first swing. As a 6 handicapper who fought a mean draw with my titleist 704 CB's for what seems like enternity, hitting these irons was an epiphany. The feel that is so aptly described as buttery is simply unbelievable, and yet these irons still provide plenty of feed back and allow for ample workability. I lost no distance switching from titleist and was still able to sling an 8 iron out there to 180 on a routine basis. Since switching to these clubs I've shaved 3 strokes off my handicap and have broken par on a handful of occasions (a first for me.) Would swear by these with my life and you cant beat the value!

Summary: Have been using the Mizuno mp37s for a year and although they are nice clubs i wanted something more forgiving but with the Mizuno MP model feel... Although the Mp52's are the latest MP30's were exactly the same as the 52's in terms of forgiveness. Also the clubs did not at all lack in any feel compared to the 37's. So i picked a set for a bargain on the internet and am happier than ever. The shafts that came with(ns pro reg) were so much better than the s300s which i had before as it is so LITE(right weight for my swingweight)... So to conclude if you, like me want the feel of Mizuno MP but also need the forgiveness go for these. (By the way you can tell that these look the same as the mizuno mp62's, I GUESS mizuno is lacking in innovation and therefore are producing same clubs with different name/model no)

Summary: Loved them, had a pair of game improvement knock-offs - never realized how nice mizuno's hit. Was tooling around with my buddies mp-14's and decided I needed to get a set. Good hits are like slicing warm butter with a sword - effortless.
The feel they bring (and distance) to your iron swing are pretty amazing. I'm not planning on going back - and I've enjoyed the feel.

Summary: A little background. I started with X-14 on graphite shafts, moved to Cobra SS-i's, then I discovered the MP series. I started with MP 33's and last year I switched to MP 30's. MP 30 are a bit harsh in the feel department.
These irons are good because of the high performance sole. It seems like you can come very steep or very shallow and still get the whole ball most of the time. I borrowed a friends set of clunky soled POSs and it made me realize how great the MP series soles are. The half MB design is great for me because my misses are generally thin and I get most of the intended distance out of these. Plus you can buy a set off Ebay for a firm handshake. I've increased my distance quite a bit and I'm now hitting a 7 iron around 150-160.
Now they do feel a lot less soft than the MP-33's. I've also noticed that my distances vary quite a bit more with 30's. With the 33's I always with a 6 iron 155 yards. With the 30's I hit a 7 iron 145-165 yards. Sometimes I feel like I got in solid but the ball just doesn't take flight well.
All in all these are a great set of clubs if you're buying them used for under $150 dollars. They're soft enough, with enough distance to keep you coming back. If money were no object I'd look elsewhere. Money is an object, though and these are fairly cheap and will satisfy a forged club virgin for a long time. All in all they are a good starter set for forged iron players.
Summary: i just traded in my callaway x 16 pro's for a set of mp 30s. i could not be happier the long irons hit pure and straight with great ball height. who ever said these irons werent any good. i just not a pure ball striker, and should not be playing blades.
