Srixon Pro 100 vs Miura, Epon, Vega and other jdm's

dantag · July 17, 2012

How do the Srixon's compare in feel to these highly acclamied Japanese irons? I'm sure that there are some here that have hit both. My only comparison as far as blades go are with Mizuno mp 32's, Wilson Staff's and Hogan's. I play Pro 100's now and find them to be solid and soft feeling. Not as soft as the Mizuno's but solid and more powerful.

Any comparisons would be welcome...Thanks!

there are a couple of jdm hos that use the pro100's as gamers so that says something to me. i haven't tried them but i sure would like to!

I just got back from hitting balls and was thinking man, these are hard to beat. They are workable, either way, like any blade though today's ball makes it harder. But they are very forgiving too. I've made poor swings or hit out of the rough and hit high out toward the toe and had minimal loss in distance. Of course it doesn't feel good.
Hope to hear from some guys who have compared......

[/quote] You know you can get these cheap when they pop up. I paid less then 200 for mine in good shape. Total no-brainer..

i have the pro 100s ......., in fact i have plenty of them.
and
the epons and miuras, and plenty of tourstages, and god knows what else.
i WAS gaming the pro100s until the weekend over all the above ,thtas how good i think they play
and in reality they are just a cheap nasty asssss blade in comparison to the big names.
but they work,and work brillinatly, shafted well u cant notice the differnce(well almost...)
the shape aint really traditional its a lot more rounded, the face impact is SOLID ,not butter soft not 1 iota, but they managed to make these just good enough to make them almost very enjoyable to hit,

but to play

they are sensational if u like the look of very rounded irons. these are ur huckelberry.
i dont get carried away with thier feel. they aint anywhere near as good as the big boys. but they are good enough for my match bag , bec i need to win. coin. and i assure you, if u saw my iron sets they are in pretty lofty company , yes , thats saying something.

they are WELL worth having a set of , most assureadly
