MP-57 are much much better irons. The foregiveness on off sweetspot hits are significantly better. And could be due to 1degree stronger loft combined with cavity, cut muscle, etc technology, I am hitting MP-57 about a club to club and half longer. My 8 iron shots were in 140~145 yard range with Titleist. Now with MP-57 I can nail pins at 150 range. Ball flight is a little higher as well. My adhoc theory about the distance gain is the MP-57 cavity and other tech really does make a difference. Seems the extra help from the foregiving tech allow me to swing with greater confidence.

I wore 2 sets out. Then Mp 32’s a big no, then Mp 60’s Nothing doing. Then Mp 57 with TT SL shafts. Clubs came up short until I had the lofts adjusted to the Comp EZ Specs. Now they are lethal. What do you think of the MP 58’s Thanks I went from DCI Blacks to My first Zuno’s Comp EZ’s Great Club, strong lofts. I wore 2 sets out. Then Mp 32’s a big no, then Mp 60’s Nothing doing.

Does anyone have any experience with buying clubs from this place. First thing that came to me are these are knockoffs. But I am told their clubs are made out of the same components that go into a genuine mizuno iron. It is the same OEM who produce the same clubs for Mizuno. Does anyone know the real deal?

I ordered custom fitting Project X on Mizuno MP 52's. Inch on 3i&9i&PW, half inch on all other. Proshop will do the bending of lie angle. Still waiting for order to arrive.

I ordered them with Project X 6.0 shafts. I had been playing with Taylor Made CGB X irons, and I think the distance with those irons were what made me buy them. But my god, my game went down the drain. Whoever said that game improvement irons are good for your game doesn't know what they are talking about, they destroy your game. You become so sloppy that next thing you know you can't hit any club. Anyway I gave up on the TM and went to my old Mizuno MP67's. My game improved dramatically, but somehow with the MP67's I feel I have to slow down my swing, otherwise the ball starts moving all over the place. Anyway I ordered the MP57's and wow what a difference. Although not quite as buttery as the MP67's, they play much much more accurate. The ball dispersion is dramatically better. I can now swing away and not worry about an exagerrated ball flight. The thing is I really don't think it has anything to do with the head, I think it has everything to do with the Project X shafts. Ball flight is a little higher than what comes with MP67 stiff, but it is piercing and the ball flight attracted a lot of attention on the range. I will say that not many people that tried them liked them though. I think you need to get a shaft that is tuned to your swing speed. If you cannot swing at a certain rated for the shaft the ball flight is dead, but once you reach the shafts optimum speed these shafts really shine. The heads of the MP57's are slightly larger than the MP 67's, and actually they look very very similar to my brother's MP 60's. But the Project X shafts are what make the 57's a winner for me. I am actually thinking of reshafting my MP67's with the Project X shafts. I just got these a few days ago from Golfsmith. I ordered them with Project X 6.0 shafts.
