Summary: Had been using very old Callaway X-14's. For me, 2nd hand clubs at my level when I started was fine. Most of what callaway makes is decent in my opinion. I felt the 14's were a tad short distance wise. Just test played the MP62's. Wow!! Already put them on hold and will pick them up this week. 20 yds longer per club then my Callaway 14's. If you are looking for something with great feel and great feed back...grab these when you get the chance.
Customer Service: Didn't go through the website. I went to Golf Ranch in Georgetown, Tx. These guys are always great and appreciative when you come in. Bill (golf pro) is a top notch dude and Dan is always doing anything he can for his customers. If ever you are in Georgetown Tx, stop in.
Follow up from above..these irons are great. Everyone should give these a try...being a cavity back player for so long (and because I was told that was best for my skill level) I wish I had switched earlier. Great feel and feedback, longer than my old Callaways as stated above. Very pleased. Give em a try

Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Mizuno MP-62
Summary: I've been playing Mizuno MX-900 irons for the past five years shooting in the low 80s. These are excellent irons with very good feel (they're forged) and super forgiveness. I have been thinking for awhile about moving to the MP series to force my game back into the 70s on a consistent basis. I was concerned that the approach may backfire as I only play 9 holes or so a week without much practice...
Anyway, I picked up the MP-62s and am totally blown away! I actually am hitting them better than I hit the MX-900s which is absolutely stunning. I don't know if the hype of the player clubs spooked me, but I was expecting to hit errant shots for awhile until I grooved my swing... but these irons are so easy to hit pure and after the first 9 holes with them, I am definitely striping the ball far better than I ever hit the 900s.
These clubs are beautiful and the guys I play with have drooled over them. At first the look was intimidating as the club is smaller than my 900s, in terms of top line, no cavity back on the longer clubs, minimal offset, and slightly smaller head. But I quickly got over it and they are much easier to hit because they're smaller and easier to get into the proper position.
I can't give these clubs a high enough rating. And if you're a decent player (80s or better) I highly recommend them - don't be intimidated like I was - you'll love them.

Summary: The aesthetics of this set are astounding; not quite as breathtaking as the MP33 or the 690MB, but it is one gorgeous iron.
Hard to differentiate from a blade at address.
A little on the heavy side - haven't weighed them, but I'm guessing stock is D3 or D4.
Not _quite_ as buttery as you would suspect, but pretty smooth.
Mish*ts (GR filtered this!!) are both workable and forgiving.
Hit them about a 1/2 club longer than the 690MB.
Customer Service: N/A - bought used from Golfsmith.

Shoots in the 100s
Model Reviewed: Mizuno MP62
Summary: I bought these irons on the basis of my good friend , who swears by Mizuno . I found that I am hitting a lot of shanks and only getting maybe 130 yards from the 3 iron , albeit straight into the wind . I have a natural power fade on all shots but recently this has turned into a wicked slice . I actually broke 2 windaes at the els course villas the other day due to this , albeit in a strong left to right wind . I am currently selling the clubs to the highest bidder in an attempt to buy my favourite irons of all times.....Nancy Lopez Pink Fire
Summary: Easily the best irons I have ever hit. They have that classic look that instills confidence when you look down at them. I went from the Callaway X-4 Forged and into the newest TaylorMade has to offer, the R9 TP's (Which are horrible)and finally went to the Mizuno MP 62's. I was fitted by a Mizuno rep so I was confident that these irons were ideal for me. The feel is incredible and the feedback and response is immediate. I got mine with the Project X extra stiff shafts. This combination allows me to know where the clubhead is at all times. Truly the best irons i have ever hit and would definitely recommend them!
