Iron looking hybrids.. Miura or Mizuno?

Recommended Posts

Help with my setup
I currently play with Mizuno MP-52s 5-pw and mp-t10 wedges with NS950r shafts. I have also mizuno mx700 and mx950 hybrid set from 17' to 26'. My iron play and driver/fairwood shots are very consistent but I am struggling with the hybrids therefore looking to replace them with long iron replacements.

The ones I have found

- Mizuno MP fli-hi. Available soon from my local shop with a chance to try them out. I do not like the thick top line and the bottom of the club showing at address.

- MiuraGiken IC-6001. available from tourspecgolf.com. I like the way they look but will never have the chance to try them out.

Has anyone tried both of the above and is able to give some advice?

Also generic advice on hybrid vs long iron replacement is appreciated.

Im thinking of upgrading my current of Mizuno irons to the new MP-62`s (custom fit ) and ive always used a 2-iron from the tee and fairway ( cant get on with the utility clubs ) and have seen the new Mizuno MP fli-hi clubs and was thinking about testing the 2-iron as an alternative to a standard 2-iron/utility..
I Really like the look of them on the website below but will see when i get to test one in the flesh...!

tried miura 2-iron replacement with some sort of hidden cavity, probably the one you are talking about (can't be that many of them). it's defo easier to hit than the tourny blade 2iron i was testing it against, but it felt a bit blunt to me, can't really tell where on the face you struck the ball, it launches a bit high for my liking. looks fat at address you can see the meat at the back. I'm sticking with the 2iron wasn't much of a contest for me. If you are going to compromise so much in feel why not go for the full out hybrid - much more R&D goes into those things.
mizuno fly-hi had very similar mushy feel but I tried it 2 months apart not side by side so can't compare them.
shaft choice will play a big part with those long clubs probably more so than the head. the only choice is to try them out for yourself
i prefer 2-p all the same shafts because you know what to expect club to club and distances are more controllable.
