Summary: These clubs are very appropriate for the GOOD player. You must strike it solid. If you are like most people and think you're good but in reality you really suck (90% of all "good" golfers including those posting here), don't play these clubs, you'll embarass yourself.

Summary: I came back to forged irons after about 8 years playing Callaway X-16 Pro irons. I felt I wanted to feel more than I was getting from my game improvement irons, so I opted for a used set of Mizuno MP32's. Having played a variety of Hogan Apexs for many, many years, the move back to a blade took a few sessions on the grass range. But it came back quickly, the requisite precision you must apply to use these clubs properly. I admit, I love the feel of a properly struck blade. I am not so fine a player as to articulate the subtle differences between the various Hogans and Mizunos I have tried and/or played. At best, the Mizunos feel a bit softer at strike to me. The MP32's look awesome at address, with a more robust top line than my past Hogans. The offset is very minimal on both. Both irons, and in fact - every blade I have played, really prefer an inside move on the ball. I find anything else results in somewhat of a missed opportunity. So, you need to ball strike rather nicely and I find an outside in path is awful for these types of clubs. If these are issues for you, perhaps so work is needed on the swing b4 dropping money on these clubs. The MP32's aren't as unforgiving as some of my Apexs, but you do need to be a striker to enjoy them, imho.

Summary: I finished my first season with the MP 32's. I had been playing the same set that I got when I started golfing 12 years ago, just a basic pro select set you would get in a sports store, nothing special. I normally shoot mid 80's, and dip into the 70's 3-4 times a year. I was so hesitant to spend money on good clubs, as I had never really hit them, and wasn't sure if they would make a difference. Well I had a frustrating first couple of rounds, because as it turned out these irons made 2 clubs difference to me over my old set. Instead of hitting 7 and 8 in all the time, I was now hitting 9 and wedge. I ended up going into the 70's 12 times this year, and got my handicap into single digits. One thing I will say is that I had two episodes this year, where I just started brutally slicing the ball and making very poor contact every shot I hit, and it would take me a few rounds to completely sort it out. That never had happened to me before. But overall I highly recommend these irons, and if there is anyone out there like me who is scared to spend the money, trust me, having good equipment really makes a big difference

Summary: I was having trouble letting go of my Hogan Apex blades but am extremely happy I chose the Mizuno MP 32's. I tried the MP 68's but didn't seem to like them as much. I have the project X 6.0 shafts which may have something to do with the accuracy and feel but could not be happier. The ball flight seems perfect for both long and short irons. Highly recommended.
