What are the best Mizuno irons ever?

[WidespreadPanic]

For me its the 33's. Unless something changes, the mint set I just got will be in the bag til theyre black and after that I will search high and low for another set. Actually, I might start searching for a backup set right now so that problem wont ever come up.

[kejoal11]

For me it has to be the MP-60's. Best iron mizuno iron I have ever played. I now have the MP-25's and they are right there in my top 5 of mizuno irons. I dont understand why the MP-25's don't get more love as they are solid.

 

1. MP-60

2. MP-32

3. MP-25

4. MP-5

5. MP-54

[Scooterboy59]

MP 14 was the best to me.

[IcemanYVR]

Not even close for me, MP 33s

 

One of the best irons ever

 

Agree on all counts. MP-33.

 

I'm on my third set.

[ani5009]

I absolutely love my 59s. I know alot of people rag on them a little, but they're great for me. I'm trying to get my hands on either 30s, 32s or maybe 69s this winter, but we'll see if they kick the 59s to the curb

[Exhaloprez]

Another vote for the 33's.

[kylemd]

I have been building up some sets of 33's and 14's. Have been experimenting with diff shafts to get ballflight up some. I did a side by side comparison with the 33's with flighted 5.0's and the 14's with flighted 6.0's. truthfully the 14's win. May have to do with the flighted 6.0 's in them. Just arrow straight point and shoot. Just felt super confident hitting them. Ive had and gamed 29's forever and recently 33's. But its been a long time since I hit shots and said "wow" out loud. They were that good. Good thing i have backup heads hidden away. Thats not to sAy the 33's were lacking in amy way... Prob just not the right shaft combo for those heads for me ( flighted 5.0). Now gonna have to get anothet set of 6.0 flighteds for the 33's.

[scruffynick]

What a topic! I'd say I've got 3 best or favourite mizunos.....tp9 mp32 & my favourite being the original tpz (p forged with the red lettering)..loved the semi blade to 6 iron then classic blade onwards. Feel great and look sexy as hell!

[NSCohen17]

Until recently I would have said MP-32. Mine are still in nice condition for 10 year old sticks and, indeed, like all good golfers should, they have retired to Florida (i.e., they are the set I keep in my condo in WPB so I don't have to travel with golf clubs). Last year I began a love/hate relationship with the MP-15's. It has taken a while, and a lot of cheating on my part (on the clubs, NOT on the scorecard), but we have not only made our peace but I now think that these are the best set of irons I have ever owned (and I have owned many).

 

They look, feel and and perform like blades, but they are, as advertised, just enough more forgiving so that you can still put up a good number with your B game.

 

So, my vote for best Mizuno set of all time goes to MP-15.

[5yddraw]

I haven't really played many but my vote is MP-64

[Snozzer]

Absolutely loving the 15's, stopped looking at anything else.

[vsteel1991]

Mp30's for me!

[sllabflog]

I have mint sets of 14s and 33s. What do you think they are worth?

[nitram]

MP60

[aquapig]

I've had the same old beat up set of Mp-30s I bought used about 8 years ago.

 

Only set of Mizunos I've owned, so for me I have nothing to compare them to.

 

I might get fitted this year for a set the new JPX forged..but will probably hold onto my 30s.

[Macogardy]

Of course that would be my current gamers TP 19's they are the irons Faldo helped grind design and he played for most his major wins

 

[MyShortGameSucks]

Of those I have either owned and/or extensively tested (best first)

 

- MP14

- MP32

- JPX 900 Tour

- MP64

- Tzoid Pro II

- MP60

- MP67

- MP63

- MP30

- MP62

 

Unfortunately Never hit an MP33 or MP29. Not impressed with current MP5 or 25 at all..

 

Edit: forgot I owned Pro II - awesome irons (except the fugly PW)

[Bruin Bear]

In my life I have owned 4 sets of irons (for more than a year at a time). I went from T-Zoid True in HS to RAZR X Forged in college to MP-32 after school to my MP-58 (current gamers). I find the 58's to be much more forgiving than the lot and I love the weight and feel of them. I have never owned or hit 33's or 14's or 64's but I hear good things... I have hit the 4's and that was a pretty pure blade. Honestly if time has taught me anything it's that you can't go wrong with any iron Mizuno makes!

[AllstateMaine]

MP-33 - my first set of blades and I still have them. Probably never game them again but I'd be devastated if I couldn't look at them everyday

[dog flog]

Sadly for the little blade-lover in me, the Mizuno irons that have worked best for me have been the JPX 800 HD. I broke 80 a few times with those fat bottomed suckers and it's hard for me to walk away from that kind of success but I've just got to give a fair shake to the stuff that I bought and didn't truly game enough to give myself a definitive answer. Besides, even if it doesn't become a permanent thing, I'll be able to yakk more with the blaidoids on Bigmean's thread. They are super gearhead geeks and they are super gearhead geeking out! There's no reason we can't all get along.

[fjk]

I owned 33s and 69s side by side. I wonder how much of the 33 love is nostalgia or golfwrx lore.

 

I sold the 33s and kept the 69s. Felt and performed better for me.

[Oldplayer]

I've loved mizuno blades also but share your thoughts that the 33's were not as good as others. Not for me anyway.

[Jarlaxle]

Just on looks the MP5's right now are smokin but I love my 53's, wouldn't trade them for anything.

[leomessi10]

 

One of my pride and joy sets. The king, TN-87s.

[pmcuk]

Of those that can be played by a more "average" golfer I'd say the MP54s were the best I've tried personally.

[WidespreadPanic]

Ive played MP30 and MP33. Just put 32's in the bag and have only hit the range with them. The 33's are easier to play than the 30's. Don't know why, but they are. I'm thinking hard about finally getting some modern irons, and while I love the MP line, I keep checking out the JPX 900 Tour. That finish looks so damn good.

[carn9698]

That would be whatever model Faldo wielded around St Andrews in 90 when taking down the Shark.

 

Could Nick strike a blade well or what.

That would be the TN-87s...well played.

 

Just re-reading his 'Swing for Life' and finding a lot of the drills to be simple and effective.

[ldchristopher]

For me, it's my current gamers, so either the MP-4 or MP-5. Mizuno doesn't make a "bad" iron but if I had to rank all the irons I've played or tested in the past from the MP series, I'd rate them as follows:

MP5

MP4

MP64

MP68

MP67

MP69

MP60

[KarstenK]

I wish I still had my set of 32's. Beautiful
