I have been golfing for over 15 years and am currently a 9 index. Being a self confessed equipment junkie I will say that I rotate irons about once every 2 years. I stumbled upon these on ebay for 79 bucks... in short, the best 79 dollars ever spent. Feel: pure shots have a "focused softness" they are dense and precise in feel, they are not mushy or "supersoft" like the Japanese forgings which I find somewhat vague. You know you have pured it and are duely rewarded. Mis-hits are communicated to you but are not painful like the Hogans. Mis-hits will fly straight but lose about 5-10 yds in distance. The head is small, but if you are committed to learning this game do not let this intimidate you. They are as forgiving as any club I have hit. My impact pattern is about the size of a quarter and my handicap has decreased since these have been in my bag. I do find them more forgiving than the Hogans (Bounce soles +1s, Apex IIs)so if your impact pattern is similar to mine you will not likely suffer. Since purchasing I have taken them out of the bag occasionally and have always regretted doing so. They are in to stay. These muirfields respond to your commands, are forgiving enough for mid to low handicappers and the small head cuts through the rough with complete ease. The sole is narrow and there is little bounce so those who play courses with tight fairways or sweep rather than dig the ball will be well-served. With irons I have come to find the the new technologies do not necessary translate to better shots. Sure, I'll always play with the fancy new drivers but I know I am not giving up anything with these 23 yr old irons. Give them a try, find the right shaft, commit yourself to this great game and enjoy
Cheers

I really like the balance and looks of these clubs. If you have a swing flaw it will show up, and you will mis-hit. But that should not discourage you. When you strike them right, they are very accurate. I've tried Mizuno mp 14 and wilson fg 17. But they do not feel any better than these 20th, which do not have as much offset as the others. Also, you will have to hit 1 more club due to the weaker lofts than you may be used to. All in all, I really like these clubs. When stuck well, feel very solid. And that feeling is addictive.

If you can, get a set off eBay or Golf exchange. Compare them to your current clubs. Another reviewer "pured" it when he said the smaller sweet spot (about the size of a dime) will IMPROVE your swing. The conventional wisdom of giving you "foregiveness" only makes for a sloopy swing. You want to lower your handicap? Play these for a couple months this year. They will slow your swing down, and force you to make good contact. There is no feeling in golf like hitting a blade on the sweet spot, and these may have the "sweetest" sweet spot of any blade ever made.

Similar Products Used:

Blades: MacGregor 1025M (Currently in my bag), MacGregor Muirfield , Walter Hagen, MacGregor Custom Shop Blades, Mizuno (don't remember the model. MP11's?) Wilson Staff FG17, Wilson Staff FG51 Tour Blades (sweet), Top Flite Tour Edition Blade ('84-'86ish).

Cast: Ping Eye2 (BeCu and standard), Bridges Custom.

Vacation/Resort Clubs: Too many versions of Titleist DCIs, Cobras and Callaway "X" irons to remember.

I am now shooting in the lower 80's upper 70's and am *just* starting to understand how good a set of forged blades are. Especially these muirfields. I found the sand wedge, 2 iron, and even the 1 iron on ebay. Instead of hitting a club which fits with a bad swing, I have adapted/improved my swing to fit my clubs. The small sweet spot on these is tough to hit (the size of a dime), but when you do its a good 10-20 yards more distance. I now hit my 8 iron 165 yards where it used to be 145-150 yards. I can also draw or fade as needed. When these finally get worn out, it will be tough to consider any other club. I may have to try the Mizunos, but will probably get more Muirfields.

I used to use snake eye blades when I reached a handicap of 9 at the age of 15 but since moving to these blades that where given to me by an uncle I was able to be cut 9 shots in a single year to a scratch handicap at the age of 16. Without a doubt the most beautiful blades I have ever played. I used to be able to hit shots into the heart of the green but those days are gone. I am now able to hit shots right at the flag and keep them there. I would definitely recommend these and I shall be playing these for a very long time. I like the smaller head than those of modern clubs and think manufacturers should seriously consider bringing small heads back.
