Shoot in the 90s

I was looking for a set of Cobra CXI’s when I came across this set at an unbeatable price. Only reservation was that I was not familiar with the Mizuno product. After some research, I decided to give the clubs a go ahead. Haven’t regretted it since. I was ready to take my game to the next level after shooting consistently in the low 90’s/high 80’s. The clubs are slightly heavier than average but have an excellent feel and are extremely forgiving. I’ve toed and heeled a number of shots and still kept the ball in the fairway.

I’ve had to adjust my distances for all clubs. Now hitting my 8 iron around 180 – 190, that’s roughly a club and half farther than my last set. I have Sensicore stiff flex steel shafts, which probably have some to do with my improvement as compared to my previous set of regular flex graphite. I’ve become extremely comfortable with these clubs and have no fear on the swing. I was very hesitant and tended to think too much with my last set, but I can’t complain about the way I’m hitting these. Really good feel.

If you’re a mid to high handicapper looking to take your game to the next level, I highly recommend that you give these clubs consideration. Most of the places I looked they were asking $599 to $699 for Sensicore stiff steel, but if you shop, you can find a good deal on these clubs.

Very large clubhead. Requires some getting used to. VERY VERY forgiving. Titanium doesn't help much w/distance but does expand sweetspot (I'm now confident teeing off w/2iron). Great for mid and high handicappers.

Discontinued and on sale for around $400.

What a set of clubs. If you can find them you'd better grab them up. Easy to play, easy to control

Model Reviewed: T3 Ti-Insert irons, Sensicore shafts

Excellent set of irons! These irons set up square, swing easy, and drive through the ball at impact with their considerable heft. It took me a little while to get used to the weight but once I did, the results have been excellent. Surprisingly versatile also, considering their size. I'm at least a club longer throughout the set, I now use a 9-iron for 150 yard approach shots! The ball really explodes off of the titanium face. The Sensicore shafts are a tremendous match to this set. High handicap players would appreciate the irons' amazing forgiveness while the same assistance can help shave a few strokes off the mid handicappers game. Low handicap players would probably not like the irons for the very same reason. These irons are so forgiving, they actually make "working" the ball a real challenge. For most people out there who strive for more distance and increased accuracy, these are the irons for them. They can be found used on many internet auction sites for a great price. Believe it or not, these were well over $1,000.00 when they came out. You can find them for a fraction of the price. Check them out!

Model Reviewed: T3 TI INSERT GRAPHITE SHAFT

I am just starting to play again after about a ten year layoff. I wanted a pro line club that was in my cost range. I play these clubs better then any in my life. They are easy to hit and the feel is great. I can't understand why Mizuno stopped making these. A great value and a great club.

Model Reviewed: Mizuno T3 Titanium Insert Irons

I was looking for some ti faced clubs and was please I found Mizuno. I tried a few brands with Ti and really liked the feel especially with the sensicore shafts. The ball really takes off before you think you've hit the ball. At first they were a little unusual and I was getting to far under the ball mis-hitting. This was due to trying to hit them too hard. After a few rounds they're hitting better than ever. Great set of clubs with that look and shape too. Straight shot and slight draw is what I get out of them without much effort. Getting 5-10 more yards than my old set of irons. Great deal from Tucson. Just wish they added an extra wedge to the set.

Model Reviewed: T3 Irons - steel sensicore shafts

Nice look at address (fairly clean top line) with minimal offset - not nearly as much as the Ping Eye 2s. This helps if you come from playing a blade type club to help set up at address. Irons played longer than blades by at least 1/2 club. Shot 76 first time playing with them. Only difficulty is controlling the distance when chipping with the PW (may be the stronger lofts). Overall a good set to play and become more consistent with ball striking with the slightly oversized heads and Ti insert.

Model Reviewed: Mizuno T3's

I picked up a used set of T3's with R-300 sensicore shafts to try out. A very nice club overall. Aesthetically, the clubs are beuutiful. Oversized heads, but with a more classic line than say Berthas or Zing2's. As far as performance goes, they are very forgiving, almost on a par with the aforementioned irons. You can hit the ball all over the face and get decent results. And you get enough feedback to know you missed the sweetspot, but not so much that your body vibrates. Good distance, too. Don't know if that's due to stronger lofts or the Ti face. Overall, it's a solid, pretty, and very forgiving club. A good choice for mid to high handicappers.

Model Reviewed: Mizuno T-Zoid T3 Titanium Insert

I tested everything out there this past winter and spring. It came down to the Bertha X-12's and the Miz T3's. I liked the topline better on the T'3's, plus the feedback seemed to have more ""feel"" than the Bertha's. Sweet spot is huge. You can take the occassional cut or stab and still have something to work with. I went from playing 10 years with Zing copies with stiff TT Dynamic Lites to Miz T3's w/R-300 Sensicore Steel. The sensicore does seem to dampen the shock, but I'm not sure I could tell the difference in a blind test. As with anything they took about a month to fully get used to distances (about 5 yds more -- probably the stronger lofts), especially the wedges around the green. I had them bent 2 degrees upright after about three months of playing them -- simply based upon my swing. Paid $599 + $150 for SW and 2i. I'm very happy with them and feel they give me solid confidence even if I'm struggling to get in the groove. With considerable amount of practice, my handicap has lowered from 14.1 to 12.4. The irons have helped in terms of hitting more greens in regulation. Give them a demo. I sense that they're not a hot seller, so perhaps you'll be able to strike a deal. I purchased the 2i and SW from the shop and had to wait about 2 weeks for them to arrive from the manufacturer. Make certain you can get the additional irons you want from your retailer.

Model Reviewed: T3 Irons 3 - Pw

Bought these irons in april after trying out Callaway Tungsten-Ti, Taylor Made Ti Bubble 2, Titleist DCI oversize, Callaway X-12, and Armour 845 Ti-inserts. Hit more consistant and longer than most. Callaways are offset which I tended to hook. Second choice would have been the Ti Bubble 2 on closeout from Web sites. The Mizuno's were less expensive plus offered the Steel Sensicore shafts. Very happy with them and am much more confident. Very easy to get the ball up in the air even with the 3 iron. Only drawback is that the stainless steel seems to be a little softer that my old irons because I notice they get small scratches and nicks easier. If marketed properly, these irons probably would have easily outsold the competition.
