It's 2007 and I recently purchased these irons after countless day's and hours testing all blade models. And what can I say if you are in the market and thinking about purchasing a set of blades LOOK NO FURTHER! After hittting CG1's, 695MB(titleist),and the Mp 67 I sware these (MP 37) definitely had the best feel and forgiveness, I know they're blades but trust me hit them and you will see! Think about this I normally hit a 7i 160-170,and can't keep these under 175! All the other clubs were excellent as well not knocking any of them I set out to get CG1's or 695MB, but I am glad I look over and saw these clubs! I will definitely have these a very,very,long time(.)

If you questoin whether or not a set of blades are for you go and hit them and you won't even think about lesson's all you need to know is told to you by the clubs!
Everything you read about these clubs in this review are true!

When I looked at getting a set of blades I seriously took on board that only the best players can hit them.
What I found since getting these irons is some degree of truth in this.
What these irons have done is let me know exactly what I am doing wrong or right when I hit the ball.
I reckon with the proper practice I will be hitting these irons well.
The irons theirself are brilliant no other word describes them.
I picked a set up for £299 brand new what a bargain.
I will be playing these irons for the rest of my life thats how good they feel when you hit a good shot.

I just bought a set of mp-37 irons and all they are amazing. This is my first set of blades, and I absolutely love them. I haven't found them to be difficult to hit at all, and when you hit it on the sweet spot, it feels like you are hitting a marshmellow. I have hit the mp-32 and 67s and I think that these are just as good of a club for a better price. If you are looking to get a set of blades, I highly recommend these

I just wanted to add to the string here in regards to whether or not MP-37s or blades in general are the right club for you. I am not a great golfer, nor have I ever claimed to be. I shoot mid to low 80's, but I only get out onto the course 1 or 2 times a month if I'm lucky. Work has kept me away from the game, but...I do get to go to the range every so often. Anyway, I used to hit MP-33s. I thought the trajectory was too high, os I got some 37s. Here is my take on blades. I used to hit Callaway Great Big Bertha Titaniums with the Tungsten insert. I thought I was pretty decent and I cwould shoot anywhere from 80-90 with them. Problem is, those clubs did all the work for me and hid almost all of my swing flaws. Since I switched to a blade, I have broken into the 70's twice and I am much more consistently in the low 80s. Why? Blades give you immediate feedback on what you're doing wrong! And when you do something wrong, sometimes, it can really hurt! Especially if its cold! When I made the switch, I struggled for about a month at the range, trying to figure out why I couldn't hit my blades. But I figured it out and now I am getting to the point where I can shape my shots now. It has opened up a whole new dimension to my game. So the decision about whether or not to purchase a set of blades, has nothing to do with "big egos." It has to do with how far you want to take your game and what equipment you believe will get you there.

Now, there are a lot of pros who do not hit blades, and I'm sure they can shape shots all day long. All I'm saying is that there are many roads that lead to Rome. Don't listen to certain people who think that people who hit blades have big egos. A lot of them just have a healthy desire to improve. People who would criticize others in that manner are just frusterated because they didn't have the patience or the desire to hit blades, or any other club for that matter. They probably go through set after set and it is always their clubs fault. "These irons just don't suit my game." Pathetic!

Model Reviewed: Mizuno mp-37

I have read many of the previous reviews and I think a lot of them are misguided. I am a die hard Mizuno fan
and have tried virtually every set of Mizuno's made. The MP-37 has a sweet spot which is heel biased. It is also designed to give a lower ball flight
than it's brother club the MP-33. The
MP-33 is a great club but some users
complain that the ball flight is too high. The question I ask is if the MP-37
is one step above the MP-33 then why do
the Tour players prefer the MP-33. The MP-37 has never been popular with the tour players and I do not think it will
last long-it is simply too hard to hit with no advantages over the MP-33. If the ball flight is too high with the 33
then experiment with lead tape to bring
the ball flight down-this is what the tour players do.

I think the MP-33 will stay in production even though the MP-32 and MP-60 are gaining popularity. I have tried the 32 and the 60 and think they are great clubs but the 33's are still special (although I prefer the MP-11's which are long gone out of production. I do not think the Mp-37 will stay in production long--it has not been very popular.

I am sure that there are some people who will disagree with me but that is my opinion after having spent a lot of time with the 37's and the 33's. The MP-37 is still a great club-I just think the 33 is better.

Mizuno has had it's ups and downs but has improved it's service greatly.

I certainly agree with jimlaw. These clubs are by far superior to any set of blades on the market. When I started using these clubs, my swing was somewhat inconsistent from 6-p to 3-5. These weapons have made my swing and game improve to a single digit handicap level. Like all golf clubs, some adjustment will need to be made to get the full benefit of these monsters. Certain flaws in swings will be magnified with blades, but it can't be blamed on the club. If blades aren't for your game, try a different model, after all, they aren't for everyone.

Now for the critique of these clubs, they are very accurate all the way through the set. I enjoy hitting long irons as well as short ones, and these are no exception. If you can adjust and adapt to hitting blades, make these horses your choice and you will not be disappointed. I got these sticks off ebay brand new for $579 with the S-300 stiff shafts, and for me, I only went to the range to hit these once when I got them. They set up remarkably well behind the ball, and when solid contact is made, just remove your peg from the earth and listen to your playing partners say-WOW. Good on you for those who have mastered these battle sticks, and I am glad I have joined the mizuno iron family. Plenty greens and fairways.

Christian Hunter's review was very detailed but unqualified. Christian is not at the skill level required to play the MP-37's and thus is in no position to provide useful information to anyone who is. It would be like a little old lady reviewing a Ferrari. She would say it is uncomfortable, jerky, and expensive.

The bottom line is these clubs are very nice if you have the game to back them up. My estimation is these clubs are geared to handicaps 5 and lower. Not to say that an 8 would struggle with them, but in general a higher single digit will be better served by a more forgiving club. If you can hit these clubs consistently, there is simply no better feel on the market. Make sure to hit plenty of 5 and 4 irons on the range before making a purchase decision. If you decide these are for you, get properly fitted.

Attention everyone who THINKS they are great golfers capable of playing these clubs. You can. They are very nice and they basically work fine, more or less. My message today is a simple one. PLEASE before buying these clubs, consider checking your ego at the door and buying another set of mizunos, preferably the ones with a LITTLE game improvement, not a lot. I am not advocating Calloway shovels, I can't stand clubs like that. To me, that's hardly even golf, those big scoop-type irons are basically cheating, in my opinion. What I am saying is, take a look at the pros on tour and on the Nationwide tour. The use of modest game improvement irons among those guys is widespread, and for a very good reason. And here I get to the heart of my concern.
The MP 37 PW, 9, 8 and 7 irons are FANTASTIC, they are a hell of a lot of fun to play with, and I totally recommend them. However, when one gets to the long irons, it is a different story. The 6, 5 and 4 irons become progressivly harder to direct, (I personally tend to hit them way to the right). Not a slice, exactly, but perhaps a failure to return my wrists to square at impact. If you think this task is easy (returning the wrists precisely to square at impact), then go for it, have at it, buy a set of these clubs. But the best of all worlds would be MP 37 in the short irons and A DIFFERENT CLUB for the long irons. They are indeed "fun" to play with, shots are definitely "shapable" (in fact, if you know anything about clubs like these, you pretty much are forced to shape the shots one way or another with clubs like this, as most pros and better players who use them do; it's more of a sure-thing, direction-wise). Yes, I can take the pitching wedge and hit spots on greens that leave my Calloway-playing friends drooling with envy. But just as surely, on any shot that's 180 yards-plus, the shovel-type club enjoys a decided advantage, both in directionability and in size of sweet-spot.
I also suspect that the S300 shafts that come with these clubs are a BIT TOO STIFF for most players, even good players, as I yearn for a little more "whip" in my shaft. One more thing. As one moves progressively toward the longer irons, one must really hit the ball "right on the screws", so to speak, of the club, in order to effect a good shot. The sweet spot on even the 4 iron is so tiny I find myself using my penis a lot more than I used to. My 5 iron is no longer my favorite club, as it used to be with my old set of improvement irons. I feel confident that this advice is sound for MOST GOLFERS, as I shoot in the low 80s and have a game that many others up north where I live would give their left nut for. So there it is. Make up your own mind or ask the lord for guidance. I love Mizuno more than god.
I reget not buying the slightly easier to hit 60s or 23s, or whatever is their latest offering in that category. God is supposed to be a funny old white guy with a beard. Make sure it is with his blessing or you will be buying clubs that are designed for the kind of game that satan plays, not the game you wish you had. It's no sin to pay like an amateur to lie with and to spit ropes of fire with a demon whore.

Christian people are wierd.

I played off -2 when I was 18 and my ball striking was up there with some of the best players in my district. I played Hogan Apex blades and at the time I honestly didnt think there was a better iron out there.
However I met a girl and because of her I gave up the game and even sold my clubs. I didnt play for 3 years until our relationship ended. I wanted to get back into the game last year and picked up my Dads old set of X-18 Pro Series. They did the job until I found my swing and got my ball striking back. So 2 month ago I felt my swing was almost back to what is was and felt that I should find myself a new set of blades. A lot of my mates raved about Mizuno irons and how good the feel was with them. I went up to my local Mizuno stockist and spoke to one of the guys there. He convinced me that Mizuno was a better iron than Hogan and asked what I was looking for in an iron. I told him I wanted good feel, feedback, workability and a penetrating ball flight. He told me for the scratch golfer the MP-37 was the best clubs around. So he gave me the full custom fit service. I needed 1 degree upright, ½ longer, X-100 DG shafts, 1 degree stronger loft and 2 rolls of tape for the grips. He told me 2-3 weeks until delivery.
Anyway when my clubs finally did arrive I was not disappointed. The feedback you get with these things are unreal. You know exactly where the ball is heading without even looking up to see it. When you strike it pure the feel is tremendous and the ball just zips away low and powerful. Its also so easy to shape shots. I played the other night and I was hitting little fades and draws into tight pin positions. The biggest benefit is when you play links golf and it is windy. It really is easy to play knock down shots with these.
Please don’t buy theses if your handicap is 5 and above. You get little to no forgiveness with these babies but what you do get is ultimate feedback. These clubs dont try and fool you like cavity backs do where, even though you put a bad swing on it, the ball still flies straight. They let you no what you did wrong and you have to make sure you fix it on the next stroke.
