Anyone still playing irons model year 2yrs or older?

[onehitah]

Same old mp14's here. Third set. I do sharpen the grooves though.

 

Only felt the need to replace the woods and wedges.

[Swing_King]

Playing sweet as butter MX-20's, but looking for a set of Srixon i506's with NSPro 950's as I weant to go back to steel. Still may just reshaft the mizzys cos I love them.

[mtsmith]

Gonna play them til the wheels fall off

[travis13]

PING i5's all the way

[llamont]

Hello all

 

I'm still playing Mizuno MP-14 irons and I really don't see a need to fix what's not broken. The technology in forged blades haven't changed in decades and I don't see reason to differentiate from a good thing. My backup irons are also aged (Titleist 990-Bs and Callaway X-14 Pro Series). Game improvement club technology has definitely come a long way but the technology engineered into the modern day players clubs is timeless and has really not changed in decades.

 

Thanks

Loren

I try all the new stuff, but i will always use my Titleist 681 irons. ( 2001.)

 

I use them because they are the best feeling irons i have ever hit, i have alot of confidence when i have them in the bag.

[pingshack22]

Ping i5's and have no reason to change !

[stocki11]

Taylormade Rac MB's (02?? ish). Don't feel the need to change!

[ikeman1]

Srixon I-302 5-PW, I may never switch as long as this set of irons keeps whipping the pants off of my playing partners. I am a 10 handicap.

[sammack09]

i used to play the taylormade 320 irons but as of 2 days ago changed to callaway x forged.

[LHgolfer]

Titleist 731 PM---this was the last set that Phil played with before leaving Titleist.

 

This is a great combo set and is not a forged club. I absolutely love the look and I have thought about buying a backup set off EBAY.

 

Any other lefties playing this set?

[Double True]

HA! I have the vast majority, if not all of you, beat. Ben Hogan Edge circa 1988-1992. I was playing a horrible set of hand me down Callaway Knock Off's and saw this set on craigslist for 75$ which included irons, wedges, driver, staff bag, hard travel case and a few sleeves of Pro V1's. The grooves were in immaculate condition cause the guy said his grandfather played like once a year. They hit very solid (I have never heard a bad thing about Ben Hogan irons) and I love em!

[seypat]

Here's one more playing MP-14s. I got to see them made right in front of me on a tour van at a Hogan/Nike/Nationwide stop. The closest I'll ever get to the "Pro treatment!"

 

I have the standard (weak now days) lofts. I might be in the minority, but it is a whole lot easier to vary trajectory with weak lofts than strong ones. I can hit low ones all day if I need to. But once I start jacking those lofts, it sure gets hard to hit a moon ball when you need to. When you play out of the rough, from behind trees, etc. as much as I do currently, you can't get those bigger clubheads thru the hay! And until I straighten out the Big Dog, I have to be able to bend one, or hit one low under a tree branch all the time. My standard flight is straight/draw. If I am having a bad day, it's hook/Teal/Mallard. If I use anything with a lot of offset, those bad days turn into Teal/Mallard/OB Left!

 

But I am working hard this offseason. So hopefully the driver will be better in the spring. If not it will be another year of 3 woods and 3 irons from the tee.

 

Hope springs eternal!

[maf19]

Nickent 3dx reds.

 

They're easy to hit. They go high, straight, and long. What's not to like?

 

I've wasted a ton of money chasing the latest and greatest, only to find out that it wasn't. I have a bag of clubs now that work for me. I think I've broken the "new club addiction". I've slowly become less and less interested in buying new clubs for no good reason.

Not so quick! I have a set of 1974 Director's in rotation and am about to add a set of 1957 MacGregor M75 Colokroms! Have also played 1964 Hogan PT III's in the last year or so, shot mid 80's that day, really good day, old clubs and a swing that was working for me (at least on that day, ha ha.)

[motoo344]

I have been using my dads Titleist 990s for almost a year. I have no idea how old they are, but I am pretty sure its well over two years lol. Hopefully soon I will get a new set custom fitted. Honestly I am not sure whether I would like to get a three wood or 4-P irons. What would you guys suggest. Logically you would hit irons more, but I dunno where to start.

[gotem]

ping isi ive been playing for 8 yrs... im looking into i3 blades or the i3+ blades tho

[sfdoddsy]

Japanese version Callaway Big Berthas from 2003. Still feel better than anything else I've tried.

[gjones77]

I just put a set of 03 Hogan Apex blades in the bag, they really are some of the most beautiful irons ever made...

[shepdog]

Ping i3 blades here, because I have not found anything better.

[Cameron Carter]

Mizuno Mp-60's here I believe are either 2 years old or coming close. I am also not planning on getting rid of them anytime soon.

[jefffann]

PING i5's 2005

but just picked up some titleist 775.cb from 2005 also for a c-note and have been alternating between the 2

Was playing PING eyes and eye2's before I got the i5's

[yUmaRouS]

indeed. i play the tm rac mb's from 2002, and they rule

 

Another TM Rac MB here Into my 7th year with these..... :black eye: They just rock I guess. But unfortunately this year might be the year to change to the Nike VR Blades with some good ole KBS Tours. :man_in_love: Still love these irons though

Oh yeah well....I have a set that Bobby Jones made personally for me....out of.....wood and.....damn you!!! That's awesome that you have those old school clubs with sweet spots the size of a dime. I love my Hogans and plan to keep them for a looooooong time

[Windycitygolfer]

Titleist 762's, bought them in 2001 or 2002, not exactly sure.

 

I will trade out a wood here or there, maybe add a new wedge or a hybrid, but I haven't had the urge to change my irons.

[PixlPutterman]

two sets here. MP-32 with 1150 gh tours and Mizzuno TP-Originals with x100

 

in the words of bernie mac from oceans 13- ''nuff said''

LMAO, not bad for a squid, thanks for serving! I spent 8 yrs in the Green Machine. I have a couple of sets of the Edges and a couple sets of '88 Redlines (one un-hit) so I know what you are talking about. some of the best sticks ever made. I have over twenty sets of irons now and the newest is a set of Titleist 704.cb's and the oldest is a set of H&B's probably dating to the mid to late '30's. Have fun hitting the Edges they are some really sweet clubs.

[4 for all]

I play Mizuno T zoid True Blades. TT DGs300 a very nice set. I don't like to pay for new irons. I paid about $100 a few years ago. When hit on the screws very sweet.

[SCFgolfs]

I still play a set of Hogan Apex FTX that I bought in new condition 2 years ago for $99. And they were already shafted w/ X100 and bent to my specs perfectly. I'm of the opinion there isn't much technology can improve on over any good set of blades from the past 10 even 20 years. I'd rather pick up a nice used or NOS set and customize them then drop 1-2K on the current year setup. This year I'm putting together a set of gunmetal pro-c or cm macgregors with the KBS gunmetal.

[beaner25]

My "new" irons are callaway x-18's. Got them for super cheap late last year.

 

Can't wait to get them going in the spring.
