You guys with combo sets...what are you doing between sets to get good gaps? I was advised not to tweak the two types (CB and MC) independently, but there's quite a gap then between the 6 CB and 7 MC then. I hesitantly took that advice when I ordered, but I also have an MR3 at home, so I can tweak if I need to.

I'm going to hold off on bending until I get the clubs on the course. It just doesn't make sense to me to change the loft on an iron to get a better yardage gap without ever hitting them first. After a few rides around the course I'll see how my gaps look.

[specimania]

Cb/mc combo and had the lofts in the mc bent 1* strong to maintain 4* gaps

[ahbot]

Any news on new TM wedges?

For anyone on the fence about the MB irons and especially those considering the mizzy mp-4 vs the TM MB, I had the mp-4s and just got my set of TM MB 4-PW and they are butter. Plus the satin finish looks much better to me than the chrome on the mizunos. I'd say go with the TM they got
It right this time for sure awesome set of irons.

This is just the info that seems to be [i]lacking[/i] on this giant thread. I can't wait until there are more (with details) side-by-side comparisons of these TM MBs to your old MP-4s. Also, let's hear the comparisons to:
Nike VR Pros, Titleist 714 MBs, Callaway Razr MBs, Mizuno MP-69s, Wilson FG-62, and Clevelands MBs.

Any others of the forged MBs I may have left out.....
[/quote]

I totally agree! I am dying to see some Tour Preferred MB comparison picks or some "in hand" pics of these at address. I am seriously considering a set of these, but haven't found any shop near me that carries them.

[cogi59]

just saw all three sets of irons at the Golftown up here in Vancouver.. they look amazing! Thinking I'm going to go with a MC/MB Combo set, maybe throw a CB 3iron in there too!

Been testing the new Nike VR 60 Toe Sweep model and it kicked my ATV 60 out of the bag. Love my ATV 54 and 56 but am very curious as to how the new Nike 56 Toe Sweep or Dual Wide and new ATV play in comparison.

Keep your fingers crossed for the PGA Show, but it might be later. There are a few new wedges coming.

I spoke to someone in TM customer service about this. No idea. I may end up purchasing wedges from another OEM.

So this guy decided the MP54 is more workable because he hit a better draw than the MC? Solid...

He hit the MP54 off the toe where it is supposed to draw.

[Anser]

Those of you who have not seen the CB's in person... it's really startling how good they look and how well the blend into the mc's. I think a 5-7 CB, 8-PW mc set may be in my future

[Yoshimitsu]

I realize that looks are subjective, but the MCs blow the MP54s out of the water looks-wise. The MP54 pitching wedge looks like a spatula and the finish on the MC is way better looking.

It would seem to me...that's the definition of more workable.

Plus, it's a human hitting it which means it's his opinion. YMMV.

In his other review, he had a few beautiful draws with the MC.

With that logic I don't need new irons after all. I can hit both snap hooks and huge blocks with my AP2s!

No idea what ymmv means... But anyways.

Sorry, but I watched him basically hit two hosel bangers with the MP54 and then a couple good draws afterwards. Then he grabs the MC hits a good one and then says he wants to hit a draw, and because it didn't draw as much on his 2nd ball he decides it isn't as workable. I tilt my head at that conclusion.

Agree, especially on the wedges/scoring clubs. TMAG has really gotten the look of the 8/9/PW right with these clubs. Mizuno, on the other hand, is still having some issues with that...

ymmv= Your mileage may vary.

As for this "reviewer", I agree with you that it's tough to trust his results at times. There was another video review when he was demoing irons on a simulator and he was just hooking the hell out of them. Like he was hooking middle irons 30 yards plus on the simulator. He just went about reporting the distances of the shots like it was normal...

[Soxfan21]

Got fit today at the Taylomade Performance Lab in Olympia Fields. Both clubs felt great, and ended up getting 4-7 CB, and 8-PW MC, all bent 1* strong. Was told the gaps will be just fine that way. Was also going to get fit for new wedges, but was told to wait til after The Masters when TM will release their new wedges. Was told that they are going to be worth the wait.

Couldn't agree more. I'm rather picky when it comes to how my irons look, and the MCs are darn near perfect. That's why there's a set being put together right now at TM with my name on them.

Awesome update. Did they hint at anything more about the wedges? Did you stick with stock kbs tour shafts? Also it's interesting that they said to bend them all 1* strong. That's the same setup that I'm looking at getting once I get out to hit them.
