Few years ago, I wanted to buy Honma blade but my local golfshop did not have the model that I wanted to buy but the sales guy made an offer that I could not refuse. $500 + my old irons for Mizuno MP-29. Since then I never looked around for another iron set. The feel is amazing and it''s quite forgiving for blade. My swing improved so much from MP-29s feed backs when I heard it''s gonna be discontinued I bought another from ebay auction. Best irons I''ve ever used. Trust me, I have a freind who is a golf euipment junkie and becuase him I''ve tried about every irons on the market.

these are the best irons i have ever played with in my life.I would highly recamend these irns or the new NIKE irons those are gonna be the best,but the nike irons will cost alot of money though.Peace out.

Definately a Porche in a world of Honda''s. If you have the skills to produce a consistant shot, then the upgrade will be a wonderful experience. If you can''t, then stay away. I owned Callaway x12''s prior and was amazed how much they masked my swing faults. Got these and learned how to truely hit a golf shot and it has been great. I have dropped from a 5 handicap to +1 since making the transition over about 8 months. Well, maybe it''s because I spend about 25 hours a week on my short game, but the clubs certainly haven''t hurt my game. Compared to the X12''s, distance is roughly the same. I use to hit my 7 iron 165, now about 160. 5 yards is nothing for the accuracy they give. Ability to work the ball, I give the X12''s a 3 and the MP-29''s a 9. Forgiveness: X12''s get a 7 and the MP-29''s a 4 1/2. Poor mis-hits can end up as much as 15 yards short with a 7 iron while the x12''s would have been roughly about the same. Looks: X12''s get a 6 1/2 and MP-29''s a 10. Downside, is they knick very easy and you must, I repeat must, take very good care of them. Once, I played in the rain, and my iron covers were soaked. I didn''t clean them and 2 days later I pulled out the clubs and there was rust where they were knicked. If my Cleveland wedges can rust and be better, I sure it won''t hurt these too much. Overall, it''s a great set of clubs. Be patient with the change to them and you''ll be rewarded. Price is high, but the confidence I feel is well worth spending the extra money.

Callaway X12''s the last 5 years, demoed many others. My best friend is a club pro and I have access to try out just about everything.

These clubs are the best. I used to hit 8-irons 170 yards, now I can hit them 190 with these clubs. The 3-iron I hit yesterday at Augusta National went 255 yards. These clubs work wonders. They can stick it up your game as well. Kuay-yai hits further.

See my review of the Ben Hogan Apex blades. This was in same ways a worse experience because with Hogan at least I got to hit a 5 iron off the preactice tee. Mizuno must of written off the New Mexico market as literally no one carries their clubs. Both a telephone call to their rep and an e-mail to the customer service department have gone unanswered. Some shops say they haven't seen a rep in almost 2 years. The new MP29's look great and as an old blade man I dearly wanted to hit them. But, the only shop with them does not have any demo irons. Too bad, I've hit used MP14's and really liked them for their feedback. But, my mother didn't have any dumb children that lived, so I'm not about to shell out about $900.00 for untested clubs. Plus, what kind of after-sale service could one expect from such a non-responsive company. Guess I'll buy American - as in American company.

Totally unresponsive - but maybe they are owned by Microsoft.

These are the most popular irons in the world, and with good reason. These are beautiful. You must be not only a player with some game but a very good ball striker to use these gems to their potential. They are soft and must be taken good care of to keep the shine, but well worth it. I play college golf and could get almost anything for a low cost, but will never give up my 29's.

These clubs are excellent. You need a sound swing that you can repeat to take advantage of these stix. Workable, good distance and trajectory ( 2 degrees stronger loft than the mp-14 or mp-33), and great feedback due to the double forging. The look at address promotes confidence with the lack of offset and the thin topline. As for cosmetics these are eye catching club heads. Sweet like butter but also nik, dent, scratch and wear out like butter too. The only biggest downfall of forged clubs is the more you use them the quicker they wear out. Mine are starting to look like aluminum foil with all the cosmetic wear and tear but, thats the sacrifice u recieve for softer clubs. I'm hoping to invest on the Titleist 681 blade prototypes due out in the fall of 2001, i'm hoping they are not as soft as mizuno's traditional forging process. My clubs must look good in order for me to play good, I have a reputation to protect, i can't go walking around with crappy looking clubs. Clubs mimmick the club users. If i do not get the Titleist 681 (asking price $2000 - $1500) then i would get the MP-29 Final Edition, these clubs look S-W-E-E-T, better looking than the Titleist 681 forged prototypes. But do not get these clubs for looks alone. I first started with Ping, Big Bertha's, Lynx, Titleist DCI Black, Cobra's and Wilson's. I learned how to hit the ball consistently , hence why i use muscle back blades....True blades have no muscle backs, so these are not true blades the muscle back was added as game enhancements decades ago. For the more inconsistent player who wants the feel of forging but the forgivness of a cast cavity back i would suggest the Mizuno t-zoid line used by pros like Paul Azinger who has an odd looking swing. So have fun and dont pay more than $800 dollars NEW for these clubs or you been ROBBED. HAHAHA But, i guess some ignorant people dont know what they are buying and choose to buy it because the pros do. Take it from me. If you ever plan to better your game, you must play within your abilities and you will find the game more enjoyable. Upgrade your arsenal of clubs as you get better, YOU HAVE TO CRAWL BEFORE YOU WALK.

If you are a ball striker, you'll like these clubs. Hack your way around 78-90 range, nice short game, fear the 190 yard shot, I wouldn't recommend them. The quality of these clubs is evident, and plainly the mp 33s are a step down from these crown jewels. Don't believe that idiot in the earlier review that said you need these clubs to be better, obviously that fool is still in the 90s. If you can drop 10 at 175 and put 9 on, you can play these clubs, else you are risking hurting your game. Damn range balls will scuff these faces up a-plenty but unless your range has pearls there isn't much to do. I payed 3000 dollars for these, think I got hosed.

The only people I would not recommend these irons to are those who plays once a month and have no time to practice. If you're at all serious about improving your golf, you should give these a try. Everybody knows the feel you get from these clubs on pure hits is absolutely heaven. The feedback you get from forged blades teaches you so much about your swing than "game improvement" clubs. If you do something wrong with your swing you'll know it immediately instead of walking up and having no idea why your ball came up 20 yards short. My iron distance has increased almost 20 yards from my supersteels just because I'm hitting it more pure. Don't let anybody tell you you're not good enough for blades, if you want to get better, you NEED blades.
