Don't have the experience or knowledge of the true Giants of yesteryear. Here's my more "modern" look at it.

 

Adams MB2 (especially a good custom torch job!)

Titleist 690.Mb (currently wearing the grooves off of these)

Eye 2 Any list without them is invalid

TA 845

JPX 900 Really think they will usher in a new era of free agents or Mizzy contract players in the years to come.

Ben Hogan Edge Anytime I think of the stereotypical blade look, these are the ones that pop in my head.

 

I played the mp33 for years and agree with them being on the mountain.

 

I hit the jpx900 tours today for the first time.since buying them....wow. I've been playing mp63 for the last 5 years. The 900t may be better than the 33s. There's a level of forgiveness in that head that is akin to a larger "pi" iron. The entire set is easy.

 

Putting a set of c-tapers in them soon. If the c-tapers are what they're supposed to be (and what I saw in demos) then balls may never leave the flagstick.

Great topic - all about what irons left a legacy (whether good or bad!)

 

MacGregor VIP

Ping Eye2

Mizuno MP33

Srixon 745

 

VIP's & Eye2's speak for themselves, the MP33 is the foundation of what any new blade is still compared to, and the Srixon 745's were great value and have the v sole... (covers head in anticipation of pelters!)
