To J Molloy, the current offering from Mizuno that is comparable to the MX-23 is the JPX800HD.

I was considering MX23, 3-4 years ago. Havent been playine since. Can anyone bring me up to date with recommended quivalent offers from Mizuno today?
Thanks you

I purchased the mx-23's from an Edwards store in Florida...put project 6's (6.0) in them two years ago. I have 3 to sandwhedges. Will never change. I am so comfortable with them that I would play and bet TW...if he gives me two a side.;).

Picked up a used set after reading how good they played ; love the oversized head which gives you confidence with poorly struck shots, some offset which i found to give a nice draw but not much off the tee compared to some game improvement irons. One thing I found that was disappointing is that these clubs were not as strong as i expected them to be ; as one previous writer added, they lost 10 yds. per club , with my Cobras for example i can hit a 7 iron from 155 - 165 , with a MX 23 i was lucky to get to 145 and i had to hit it hard , maybe it's the loft on the clubs i had i don't know but after a couple of rounds i decided to put them on the shelf for another day and stick with the Cobras .

First of all I have been using the mizuno 23s for 5 years. They have great distance as well as accurately as these are flow grain forged. Harmonics are the greatest in these clubs so feedback is excellent which mizuno is known for. Good shots are well felt off center shots are good as well. Most all players like the looks however their performance is second to none. Aseptically pleasing and 3 iron for me at 200 yards is spot on the green. If I upgrade now I'd move to the mizuno 53 which is a players club but more forgiving than most. Anyway I personally like to feel my shots.

MX-23 are good but not great. Difficult to control distance. Shots that feel perfect are often 10 yards short or too far. Feel is great. Offset is good for a game improvement iron. These are not your typical game improvement irons. They look similiar to a players iron, but are slightly oversized. Workability is about 10 yards either way. Overall, good but not great.

Mizuno Mx 23 are the best selling Mizuno irons of all time and I can see why. Mizuno makes the best irons in golf and these are the best selling irons for that company so I had to give it a try. Even though they are very hard to find and very rare if you can find one in good condition if the stores have them, I found a good set on Craigslist for 8/10 condition for 250 bucks. Tried them at the range and these clubs are money! That typical legendary Mizuno buttery feel everyone talks about is beautiful. I will never go for another iron company ever again. These clubs are money. Thats all you need to know.

I use this type of model with my 2-4 iron it is very help-full Cavity back, it helps me from the rough to the fairways. They are very good cavity backs but have a look of a blade and feel of blade, like I said on my Mizuno t-zoid pro review, Im on the junior PGA tour and I use these Clubs

Like many other golf addicts, I've tried every club I can think of. Some of them twice. These MX-23s are absolutely the best. Longer, easier to hit and more accurate. You can spin the ball, which is hard for us hackers. If you can find them on ebay(like I did for $200) in mint condition, jump on them. One point: I don't see how you can suggest they're not for a mid or high handicapper. Play your own game.

I keep coming back to this iron after playing them in 2005 than switching to players irons in 06 mp 60s mp 57s mp 37s mp 32s. I now have 2 sets as there getting harder to find in nice shape. the mx 25 is pretty much the same club, but not as clean in appearance. By far one of the finest mizuno clubs made. Get them fit for you, and get ready to hit some of the best iron shots in your life. I consistently hit these clubs longer than just about any other club made. The feel is like no other, as pure hits theres no need to look where your ball is going, as its gonna be perfect. The weighting during a swing is very low and forces a nice smooth tempo. Ballflight is much lower for me than most game improvement clubs and very penetrating, and easy to work left or right. Spin is kind of high and allows you to go for the flag, as I can stop a 5 iron that hits most greens in a foot or two sometimes much less. There a little soft, so I wrap my towell around my irons to minimize bag chatter. Lofts and lies should be checked every year or two, as there easily corrected due to the forging. I have another set I am playing lightweight gs 75 shafts, there race, and posssibly longer yet and straighter due to the stiff flex, my other set is regular flex dg 300 and have a great feel with that shaft.
