Only had the chance to demo the 7 iron. Hit the DG S300 to start, was having some dispersion issues and pretty much pushing everything to the left. Hit the $-taper stiff shaft and immediately brought everything midline. The combo felt perfectly balanced and not fatiguing in the least bit. I will hit them again and get more data but I absolutely loved the feel and flight when I hit it last week.

Interesting. Didn't think about this much but I think its going to come down to how well I can blend the Titleist MB/CB combo with a U510 long iron into the bag compared to the new Mizzy MP20/HMB. Really don't feel like getting into the whole bending of clubs either to make this work for me. I think it looks like I lean to Titleist, I prefer a brushed low glare finish. Thinner top line. I'm not crazy about Mizzy PW at all. Little chunky. Personal pref. Sun glare drives me insane and I dealt with it years ago with AP2. Mizzy shiny finish looks nice new in the shop but over time I dunno. Feel appears to be same. Turf interaction is VERY good with the new MB's. Timeless looking club. Numbers wise I'm not seeing anything different on the MP 20 compared to MP 18 which is strange but not surprising. This is going to be a good head to head cause the numbers don't lie. Who would have thought the new long irons would make/break the deal. Appreciate the feedback.

New MP20 HMB 5. MP20 MMC 6-7. MP20 8-PW ORDERED! Hands down stunning in looks and feel. Numbers were perfect for me. Little more distance was getting compared to MP18's. Feel is without a doubt more solid, butter, pure. The HMB is worlds apart from my FliHi. Beautiful. Apparently 2 weeks out now with all the new orders Mizzy has gotten but well worth the wait. Just beautiful all around and fit perfectly for me. 620 MB/CB were nice but feel and numbers were just better for me. Thanks again. :)

Did you really feel the copper underlay softness i.e better feel than MP-32?

Picked up my new set yesterday and brought a few of my MP18 SC's with me. Noticeable difference in feel. Distance a little bit. It was getting dark which stinks now but will be playing 18 tomorrow. Dispersion better, tighter. I absolutely love the new PW over the MP18 SC PW as well. Looks better at address. Thinner top lines across the board as well which I love. I'm in love with the set. Maybe its me, I went with same KBS shafts I've been playing but the club heads also feel a little lighter which is nice. The HMB is amazing. Much better that my MP18 FliHi as well. Love that club. Beautiful brushed steel finish similar to the Titleist MB but a rocket. The feel is amazing. Timeless....

Thinking about a full set of MMC but not sure if i should go 4i and 5i in HMB.

I hit the ball really high already, but just figured the HMB would provide a bit more forgiveness in the long irons.

Then there's the pitching wedge. Not sure about the MMC wedges because he didnt have the MMC wedges in.

Would a set of Blades in wedges, then 9 thru 6 in MMC and 5 and 4 in HMB be a crazy idea?

I'm a little confused. Dont like the PW because it is chunky, but you absolutely love the PW, thinner top lines across the board. Numbers wise nothing different on MP20 over MP18, but MP20 longer and tighter dispersion. Can you elaborate a little for those of us that cant make sense of it?

Same here I hit them both last week at Roger Dunn.... Did not expect to like the 620 as much as MP-20 but I did..... both so nice so good luck deciding! So I'm no help I just wanted you to know that...

Can't figure how to like my own posts

Have hit both. Give me the Mizuno. I couldn't tell a bit of difference between the CB and MB from Titleist as far as feel. Not much of a difference in forgiveness either. They feel great but not quite copper plated HD Mizunos. The MP20's were easier to hit than I thought they'd be, and having the MMC available as a long iron as a smooth transition to the set is awesome. Very close but I'd go Mizuno.

Tough one!

For me the Titleist looks how I want an MB to look but the Mizuno feels like a MB should!.

The Titleist still feels great but if you test them side by side a pured shot with the Mizuno is pure magic

He makes a fair point here.

That’s a perfectly-worded statement. I like the look of the Titleist more - potentially based on familiarity because I’ve played Titleist blades for years - but the MP 20s have a uniquely-pleasant feel that I absolutely loved. The MP 20s are now in my bag based on that feel.

Mizuno. They’re as revered as they are for a reason. It’s like Porsche. Yes, there’s some dogmatic “me too” consumer behavior with them, but that doesn’t change the fact they’re just flat-out better at doing the primary thing they’re intended to do - execute a task and give maximum feedback while doing it.

Oh, you're one of those guys that blindly defends someone/something and labels people "haters" even if they have valid reasons to dislike that brand.

 

How about this? My $200 DNA 2.0 lasted just over a season before the soles started coming apart from the upper. The flap on the tongue that you pass the shoestrings through to keep the tongue in place broke on both shoes _the first time I wore them_. $20 gloves, $50 balls, $30 mesh hats. Yeah...I should be on my knees in front of Titleist, too.

 

The same brand that tries to run new companies out of the market with frivolous lawsuits the minute they come out with a golf ball that performs and costs half as much as their precious Pro-V1.

 

Piss off.
