I was reading these reviews and felt I had to write one of my own. To set the record straight, I have used these clubs for about 4 years and must say if you have a good golf game (and I mean low single digit handicap) then these are the clubs for you. Working the ball is very easy and if you pure a shot the ball takes off and flies great. However, if you miss a bit don''t bother getting in the cart, just walk to your ball. What confused me the most is everyone saying they are great because they magnify your errors and make you work harder. Who wants to go play golf and have to work harder?!? For all of you who think you have a good club that has improved your game, go grab another set of clubs and see how good you might actually be. You certainly won''t know using these. They are extremely inconsistent for most people and I would never recommend them to anyone over a 10 handicap.

Have played Mizuno Trues for a while but bought the Pro''s due to the "too-good-to-be-true" price and the fact that I don''t like the offset in the short clubs in the Trues. Have used the Pro''s (fitted w/DG300R sensicore) for approx. 5 months and they are excellent in all aspects: very consistent distances, workable, and trademark forged soft feel. They require a decent and repetitive swing to truly perform but flaws can be corrected quickly as there is never any doubt where you made contact. Trajectory is a bit higher than with the Trues but not too high. Thin shots obviously go low but keep the distance well. Finally, they look great.

Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Mizuno Pro Forged 3-PW

I just want to start by saying I have tried just about every iron out there there is to try. I have hit i3 blades, Callaway Pro Series x-14s, regular x-14s, Cleveland TA-3 and TA-5 gunmetals. I have been tired of spending 500 plus dollars for that perfect set of irons and then being disappointed after I play with them a few times. I shoot below 82 about 90 percent of the time I step on the couse and wanted a set of irons that made me work hard to do it. Well, my ultimate goal is to play these Pros until I feel really good about them and then move to the MP-33s. The Pros are the best feeling most consistent flying clubs I have ever hit. I really like the x-14 Pros, but did not like the fact that I would hit a 5 iron 175 one time and 190 the next with what I thought to be the same 2 swings. I hit the Pros the same distance per club every time! I can honestly say I will probably never hit another cast club as long as I am able to swing these. I found them on ebay used in 9 out of 10 condition with DGS300 sensicore shafts for 185 plus 15 to ship. After spending all that money on the "big name" clubs, I have 200 in a set that I really love. If you are a mid to low handicapper, I would suggest giving these a try. The Pro II might be as nice too, but for the money these were hard to let go. I hope the MP-33s are just as sweet because they sure do look great!

These are awesome clubs. Had the TZoid Sure''s before, which were great, but I wanted a smaller club face and a forged club. This was the perfect choice. I love the feel of these clubs. One note: why is it that when ever a golfer with a handicap of 4 or less reviews blades they ALWAYS make a point of insisting that "these clubs are only for the low handicap golfer". That''s nonsense -- maybe if I get to a 3 handicap someday I''ll become a snob, too. Just an observation.

Oh, that''s right. Now I remember what a good golf shot feels like. After five years of hitting a ton of GREENS with Pings and Callaways, now I''m knocking down PINS again like I used to with my old Mizuno Grads. The Pros are probably the ultimate club for a scratch to 8 handicap player (I''m a 3). You can curve it, change the trajectory easily. Forgiveness on heel and toe hits stinks. But that''s what you deserve if you can''t hit the middle of the club. Amazingly though, I find thin hits are hardly penalized ... the ball flies 95 percent of normal distance (albeit lower) and straight at the target. I think this is because of the placement of the power bar, right in the middle and fairly low. I hit these side by side with the newer Pro II, and liked the original model much better. I hit the Pro II too low. If you like looking down at a shiny little knife with a very thin top line, and want about 10 percent more forgivenss than you get with a pure no-cavity forged blade, the Pro is a great choice. I would not recommend them for anyone who is not a single digit, or at least close, unless you are extremely committed to working on your game and getting better. The Pros will teach you about feel, control, and the importance of hitting the sweet spot!

I've had these in the bag for almost 2 years now. They arent the most forgiving ever, but they do go pure when you hit them well. These are for a better golfer, they fgive excellent feedback. I find the 4 and 3 iron especially hard to hit, but maybe thats just me. If you want some clubs that wont set you back too far and a trusted name and wont mask bad swing flaws buy these.

Thinking that my game was ready for the "next level" of play, I found these irons for a great price on ebay. They seemed like a good choice, being forged with a modified cavity back for forgiveness, and not completely a traditional blade. I wanted a smooth transition from my previous set of Top-Flite Tour Ti irons. These are GREAT clubs. Their look is very nice with a thin profile and good lines, as well as just a really good looking set. Like other reviewers, I had been so used to playing with a set of clubs that "masked" my flawed swing that I wasn't adjusting my swing to become a better ball-striker. These clubs will make you become a better swinger of the club. If you don't correct your swing, you will curse these clubs! It is a great feeling to make a correct swing and know that your doing things right. The ball comes off the face very softly and flies true and LONG. Bottom line, hit these clubs like you're supposed to...and they're like butter!! You'll love 'em.

Shoot in the 90s
Model Reviewed: T-Zoid Pro

I've been playing with ISI's, and was completely satisfied, until I saw this great deal on the T-Zoids. I figured that my game would improve based solely on the "#1 irons on the PGA Tour". Was I ever shocked! The clubs were so beautiful out of the box that I didn't even want to use them. But when I finally got to the range, I felt like a virgin again. My inconsistent swing (that was camouflaged by the Ping's) was magnified intensely with these blades. After and hour of hitting the balls on the heel, I adjusted my stance and swing (uncomfortable at first) and WOW!!! The ball just seems to take off and hang in the air for your viewing pleasure. I was even able to launch balls with the 3- and 4-iron. Two clubs I wasn't able to hit consistently, and don't even carry in my bag anymore. These irons are definitely NOT for the beginning golfer...as for everyone else, get your hands on the T-Zoids. Not only for playability, but a great training tool to perfect your swing. As for forgivesness...softer than my Ping's (did I mention that their Nickel?)

Model Reviewed: Mizuno T-Zoid Pro

I agree with most of the reviews so far. These clubs are very long, solid and sweet. However, they do require center hits as most forged clubs. I would like to disagree with the review stsing the poor craftsmanship of the clubs. I have had my Zoids for two years and hit thousands of golf balls with only reasonable signs of wear. All in all, very pleased with these clubs. After playing these clubs hitting cast clubs is a real dissappointment.....Great Sticks for players of all levels.
