MX-25 Iron review
These are the set I am going to keep for many years. I have gone through all of the sets of irons below and many many more inside golf shops. I can honestly say these are game changing. I get the extreme accuracy of their amazing forging, the flight is mid-high and workability is very good. I have dynamic gold superlite with sensicore shafts, ultimate shafts, they should come with these standard but they come with dynalite gold which I feared would send them too high for me. I was almost ready to quit golf before I decided to make one more iron switch to these. I have avoided these and their brother mx-23 due to the fact I feared I would hit them too high. I am glad I finally tried these. The sweet spot is the sweetest I have ever felt and I have it everything. These do not get rated high by the magazines because they fall in the game-improvement zone and they are more of a player's club in my opinion as game-improvement irons are hit it anywhere on the face and it comes out great. These do require a good strike to get the results I am talking about but they can be used by anyone to get a taste of goodness. I really would say no matter the handicap a decent ball striker to a great one will really find these incredible. If you hit them too high think about a shaft change but definitely try these out you cannot be disappointed. To other people who disagree and like their taylormade irons instead really do not understand the precision that these will bring out. I put a 7 iron, 160 yards out, ten times in a row today within a ten foot circle around the flag. I have never had that consistency before. I was able to be that precise with the srixon and other forgings but none that had the forgiveness that allowed that many times in a row. I kept saying "this feels like cheating" almost after every strike. As for the difference between MX-23 and the MX-25 the 1025 carbon steel in the 25 is softer than the 1035 carbon steel in the MX-23. You may get a little more distance with the 23 due to harder metal but the accuracy and the softer feel will bring your score down better with the MX-25.

As my European friend Wally would say "oOoOo like a butter." Indeed, these irons are as soft as butter. There may be more forgiving irons out there for the high-handicapper like myself, however none with this kind of feel and response. Custom fit for me(degrees flat, standard length) gave me much more confidence over the ball and a more consistent ball flight. It forces you to be a better ball striker. Golf is about quality experiences ie. the experience of hitting solid shots...when sucessful, these clubs amplifiy that positive experience.

I can't believe how sweet these irons are. I hit at least 1/2 club longer and these were custom made an half inch shorter than my Clevelands. Aim at the pin and these will fly straight and true. I have gone down 3 strokes since I got these. Truly a great shot making iron. I am now switching to Mizuno wedges to replace my Clevelands.

I used to shoot consistantly in the mid to high 70s but lack of steady playing time has put me into the lower 80s with an occasional very ugly venture into the 90s. I recently changed from titleist 822os to the mizuno mx-25s, I had hit the mx-23 last year and loved the feel and when I was told to wait for the 25's I did. I love the looks of the 25s and the feel was a bit harder than with my 822s the distance was similar but the ball flight lower. The 25s are billed as a game improvement club but I agree only in that they are probably more forgiving than mizuno's blade type irons. The fact that the 25s don't have an offset makes then more difficult to hit high in my opinion but I think that for a player with a more consistant swing they would be a great choice. I played about 6 rounds with my set and had a couple range sessions but never really got comfortable with them. I would still recommend them to beter players but would say that high handicappers stay away from them and maybe try the mx-900 or mx-19. Customer Service Didn't use it. Similar Products Used: I demoed almost every new club out.

Beautiful Irons, really feels terrific when you hit a good shot, definitely a lofty trajectory, about a half club shorter than my previous clubs (Mcgregor Tourneys), but definitely the Mizunos a nicer club, always feel confident over the shot, highly recommend these clubs. Pricey enough at 645 Euros though. |

After a few years away from the game (used to play off 6 in my prime), I have come back and now that I have begun to strike the ball consistently well, I went on the prowl for the best clubs for my swing I could find- no price limits, just care about quality.

I've been in the market searching for new clubs. Like the rest of us I was wondering which would help take my golf game to the next level. I've always been a Callaway guy playing with Big Bertha's. I don't want to take anything away from the bertha's as they do the job they were designed to do (which is to the get the ball in the air and that's all). I was looking for irons with a good reputation and that will help my golf game as I move along. I tried the MX-23 which were a great club But the MX-25 which are replacing the mx-23 are BETTER. There basically the MX-23 but with more bells and whistles (more forgiving). I could not believe that I could move the ball around as much as I wanted. For the first time I could draw, fade when I wanted to, and I hit more straight shots with these clubs then any other club out there, and believe me I’ve hit about everything out there. I never thought I would leave Callaway, but I've seen the light with the Mizuno MX-25 and I will never play golf in the dark again. So if you are looking for to improve your game and take it to the next level, give the new MX-25 a go.
Customer Service THey added 1/2 inch to my club length. put on mid size grip, and changed the lie angle of the clubs for free.

I recently sold my Nike Pro-Combo's which I really enjoyed for the last two years. I was offered a very good price for them and figured I would take the opportunity to buy a new set of clubs. I kind of had my heart set on the Callaway X-Tours but I decided to demo a few sets to make sure. I tried the X-tours, R7 TP's, and the MX-25's. As much as I wanted to like the X-tours I found the feel of the MX-25's to be much sweeter. Also they seemed to be pretty forgiving which never hurts. That was the one thing about my pro-combos, on days I was a little off my irons lost a lot of distance on off center hits. Anyway I decided to go with the MX-25's and I think it was a good move. The first time I took them out I shot 78 and proceeded to shoot 81 and 79 the following two rounds. I hit these about a club longer than my Nikes. Winter time is here so I haven't gotten the chance to play a lot more with them but I am confident that this coming golf season will be great. If you like the feel of a forged iron and can use a little forgiveness check these out. Customer Service Haven't needed them. Similar Products Used: Pro Combo, X-Tours, Taylor Made R7 TP, Comp EZ. |
