Miura CB-301

Played the 1st round to day with the clubs, excellent feel and dispersion.

Paired with the MCI Black 100X SSx2 they were at least as long as the IC-601 and much better overall.

Purchased from Peoples Golf and a perfect build as always.

The MCI Black feel great, they needed to be SSx2 for me to load them but that is just me and Stiff flex would have been a better choice. I am getting a nice high launch and very good spin off good strikes.

After 5 rounds these are settling in nicely, 4 of the 5 rounds have been from 80-84. Pretty good for me, if not for some bone head tee shots and wedge play all of them could have been sub 80.

Starting to get comfortable with the MCI black shafts, it does take a good swing to load them up and me just getting in my own way has been the biggest problem of late.

I just had a set of cb-301 (also made by peoples clubs) shafted with true temper rifle 7.0. Previously was playing cb57. And I will agree with you the cb-301 are awesome clubs. Easier to hit so my dispersion is much tighter. Get fit and try them out!

I just took the plunge and bought a set of the CB 301's with the Oban CT-115 shafts. I was fitted into these at Club Champion and Miura wasn't even on my radar when I walked in. This combo had the best dispersion and the most consistent distance. I can't wait to get them on the course and see how they perform!

Well, you are correct. However, All I do is work and golf with no wife or kids. I would have second guessed myself forever if I had went against the fitting and bought a cheaper set of clubs. Besides, I only buy new irons every 4 or 5 years so I decided, "what the hell". It was more than I had planned to spend.

I hope I didn’t come across as judgmental - not the case at all. People are free to spend their cash in any manner they see fit. And this is one of the nicest ways possible.

Having priced said combo, it is on the upper range of most iron sets. But you save money by buying once. At least that’s what I tell myself?

You mentioned consistent distance. Was total distance roughly on par with other sets you tried?

Foreleft, I didn't take it as judgmental. Yes, the distance was on par or better than the other Player/Distance irons I tried. The Taylormade P790's were a couple yards longer but not as consistent distance or dispersion wise. Plus, the hollow body, foam filled heads like the P790 tend to have hot spots that will, every once in a while, blow a shot farther than normal. Another factor that mattered to both me and the fitter is the "angle of descent" which you want to be around 49 degrees or more. That's going t be important if your playing hard greens. You don't want the flight to be too flat coming in and roll off the green. I want a soft landing and the ball to stop as close the the ball mark as possible. The Miura's outperformed my current set of Apex's. I came into the fitting thinking I would wind up with the Apex Pro's or the P790's but wanted to try anything the fitter thought would work for me. Miura's never ever crossed my mind and I didn't even know what I was hitting during the fitting. I probably could have gone with the Taylormade P790's and been happy, but it would have always been in the back of my mind if my scoring would have been better with the Miura's. Beside's, there is a "cool factor" gaming the Miura's.
