When it comes to irons, staying behind 2-3 generations and picking the high-end models really pays off. The pace of technology improvements have crawled compared to balls, drivers. Example - ping eye2's still great after 25 years. Bought these mizuno's in very good condition for $90 and reshafted them with Rifle 5.5's. Sweet mizuno feel, feedback, looks I'm confident will focus my swing and get me towards my next goal of breaking 80. Don't have any clue why these were discontinued or why mizuno gave up on the graduated design, but these rock, bottom line. Sweet feel but forgiving enough to provide feedback without hurting too much or loss of distance. Very long.

Model Reviewed: Mizuno GRAD MP - 2 thru PW Rifle shafts

Been playing MacGregor Tourney MT's for 3 years, but the cavity back design left a bit to be desired in workability. Wanting to take my iron play to the next level, I've tested many irons new and used over the last year. The one thing I learned was that I love the feel of forged irons. I was willing to give up some forgiveness to gain the feedback needed to improve my swing mechanics. Couldn't pass up this set of Mizuno Grad MP's for under $100 to test my logic. Played 2 rounds with them and have got exactly what I was looking for. Great feed back on all shots. Enough forgiveness to keep frustration to a minimum and the absolute BUTTER feel when struck correctly. Hitting shot shapes and trajectories that I could only imagine before. If you are in the market for forged clubs and don't want to shell out $600 or more, you can test the water with a set of these cheap. The graduated design gives a fair amount of forgiveness and you still get the great feel of forged. Looks - great traditional look at set up. (Not a hockey stick) Feel - Balance is incredible throughout the swing. Impact gives you the "good" and "bad" without punishing. Hit the sweet spot and there is NOTHING LIKE IT! Forgiveness - more forgiveness than pure blade design. You know where the ball is headed at impact but you are not punished and mis hits are not "overcorrected" like cavity backs. Distance - surprisingly - hit on sweet spot - gained 1/2 to 1 club length. When mis hit - loose 1/2 club.

Short irons- Couldn't be easier- Point and shoot. Mid-high ball flight, stops on a dime. Mid irons- much easier than blades. Simple to work. Mid flight. Long irons- a bit tougher, but still very doable. Lowish ball flight (but in Texas that's usually what I want). Feel- Typical Mizuno feel... butter everytime you hit the middle. Distance- exactly what I expect. Not a pitching wedge that goes as far as an 8 iron.

I used cast long enough and checked out all the latest irons. Only Mizunos forged impressed me but a new set was out of my budget. Buying used Mizunos was the right idea. These are great irons. Old school look but the distance and accuracy are excellent. $130 bucks... no complaints. My regular foursome are all Hogan (great clubs too) lovers and they loved these when I brought them out. Hard to find but definitely worth it. They're rare and I thank God to have found these on ebay.

Cavity back or blades? Now instead of debating the merits of both, I can simply enjoy the benefits of both. The lower irons have plenty of cavity back for forgiveness, but they move gradually up through the set to blades. The PW is a pure blade. I put this set in the bag two weeks ago. I was playing the Apex Edge game improvement clubs prior to this. I liked them, but my handicap was going in the wrong direction. Since switching to the Grad's I have lowered my handicap by 2 and had my first ever eagle. The eagle was a driver, then Grad MP seven iron from the middle of the fairway that rolled in the cup. The three rounds with the Grad's were two net 64's and a net 66. I have payed a lot of money for equipment that I had hoped would help me with my game. It is really sweet to find a set like this that are inexpensive, yet a really great set of irons you can fall in love with. Easy to hit, forged clubs that feel as great as everyone tells you forged should feel. Plenty of forgiveness where you need it (in the lower irons), but the higher irons and wedge has that great forged/blade feel. And oh, by the way, there are not too many sets that look any better in the bag than these.

I expected a similar performance to the Wilson Staff Progressive irons that I have, since the appearances are similar. Both are forged graduated cavity backs. Minor differences are: Mizuno Grad has a little more of a cavity back design and a slightly thicker top line. But, I didn't expect big differences in the performance. What I am finding out is that these clubs are much more forgiving in mid and long irons while letting you feel exactly which part of the club face hit the ball. I was very surprised at the nearly full distance I was getting even on toe shots. I did notice that the ball flight is as high as some extreme cavity back design clubs which was somewhat unexpected. But, with these clubs, it's much easier to hit knock down shots than with extreme cavity back designs. For now the chip shots are coming off a little hotter than what I am used to, but I think these are great looking, great feeling clubs. Sadly, for the first time in my life, I am locking my car when I have these clubs in the car. My driver cost me more than this iron set, but I never bothered to lock the car doors before.
