I'm only 15 and began taking golf seiously about two years. My dad handed these down to me and honeslty, i don't know why. These irons are fantastic. Forged blade irons are great to learn on because if you can hit these... you can hit anything. I adore these irons. excellent feedback on well struck or even miss hits. These will tell you exactly what you are doing wrong whether you are skulling the ball or hitting it fat. A very high recommendation from me.

Model Reviewed: Mizuno T-Zoid Pro forged II

These clubs DO have good feel and feedback. I thought I would put my Cleveland form foged TA3's away and try some Mizuno's. I've hit several of the other Mizuno's including mp14's, mp32's, mp33's, and mp60's. The Mizuno's do have a "buttery feel" when pured, but I just wasn't getting the distance and accuracy of my TA3's. I really wanted to like these clubs..I even took them with me to my local golf shop to have the loft and lie adjusted if necessary. They were right on for my swing...they just weren't for me. I think a persons like or dislike for these clubs is just a personal preference. They have a great appearance to them. I can only advise that you play a couple of rounds with these before you commit to buying them.

I have always loved the look of these irons and managed to get a good condition set on Ebay for £86 ($155), which is crazy for a set of clubs this quality, they have Dynamic Gold R400 Sensicores fitted. Played my first round with them after an hours practice and shot an 81 (9 over 1 under handicap). I am 43, 5'8," 170 lbs (76Kg). I have been playing for about 20 years and am a 10 handicap using many clubs over the years. I am by no way a great ball striker and unlike many here a good drive is 260 yards, 7 iron carry 150.
These irons are fantastic to hit and up to the 5 iron are not as hard as I would have thought. The short irons are very accurate and if you practice the feedback lets you know what you have done wrong for you to correct. A well struck shot feels fantastic and you have to be spot on to get the best results but if you are a little off they are still quite forgiving. The 3 iron is in the garage and the 4 seldom used. I would say if you get the right shaft and have the lie angle set properly a reasonable striker up to 15 or so could use these without too much trouble. At the moment I think they are superb but if my swing goes off the MX-20's are coming out.

Elegant looking clubs that reward well struck shots with fluid-like feedback. After several range sessions, I've finally dialed these in and have found that they are slightly biased toward the hosel. Shots struck toward the toe lose considerable distance with a characteristic weak fade. Lead tape may help with this but addressing the ball closer to the hosel worked splendidly in my case. Off center shots did not stray wildly at any rate. These clubs produce shots that are amazingly straight and have a boring trajectory! Perhaps the most wonderful thing about these sticks is that you don't have to swing hard to get the distance you want. My very first shot on the course with these was a 5-iron approach from 200+ yards out; the ball rocketed off the face like I have never felt with my old cavity-backs and came to rest pin high just on the left collar of the green. I knew then I wouldn't go back to cast clubs. Overall, these clubs are going to please golfers who have developed a decent swing and who are looking for the rewarding feel only forged clubs can offer. If your currently struggling to hit your cavity backs consistently, consider lessons before purchasing these.

I have played the pro II's basically since I started the game, they are a fantastic forged iron. They sit brillantly behind the ball and fit my eye perfect, I hit the 7 iron on average 160 yards so they are not short of distance I would recommend these irons to anyone who has a single figure handicap, they have improved my game a lot, and could improve yours if your looking to improve your ball striking.

It's not often you get the chance of an ex demo set of quality Mizuno's for £100. I jumped at the chance and havent regretted it. A truly beautiful club made by the best club makers around. Really sweet to hit and they feel every bit as good as the MP33's I used for a while. A nice sized clubhead as well. Not quite the butter knife look of a lot of the old Mizuno blades but neither are they the rather clumsy looking heads of the Comp EZ/CZ or Sures. Not the longest clubs I have ever hit, the 7 goes about 160 or so, but they are decent and quite easy to shape. Despite the name they would be quite suitable for anyone up to about a 12 handicap. I know an 18 handicapper who tried a set and he said that they were usable but a little hard to get in the air. I imagine these will be in my bag for a long time to come.

I have hit a lot of different irons over the last 2 years, and although these aren't the newest technology, to me they are the best. Very solid through contact and heavy. Unlike some other irons that feel hollow, these feel like a solid forged head should. Despite the thin sole, they are forgiving. I have 2 sets, one with Rifle 6.0 and one with S300 Sensicore. As long as Ebay is around, I can always find a good set for under $175.

I've been golfing for 6 years and was stuck in the "90s" for most of that time due primarily to an inability to get the ball in play off the tee (chronic slice). I was always pretty good from that point on. Like most other higher handicappers, I opted for oversize, forgiving irons, but unlike most other higher handicappers, I could actually hit my low irons (2,3,4) very well. I had always read about Mizunos, and the comments were always the same - no other irons compared for feel, even the best of the other forged irons (e.g. Hogans), and they were the most played irons on tour. Well, I finally solved that slice and have been in the 80s consistently this year and the handicap is dropping, and since I could always hit irons well I was browsing ebay and saw a set of PRO IIs that were perfect, rifle 5.5 shafts and and 2 degrees upright. I got them for ~$150 which I figured for that price it was worth a try. I'd always heard the PRO IIs were the best Mizuno combination of forgiveness and blade-like control. I must admit when I got them the 3-iron head looked pretty small, but anyway I put them in the bag. I will confirm the unanimous comment that I've never hit any irons that feel like these. I hate to use the "butter" cliche, but they really feel soft on contact, almost like you have the ball on the face a little longer - it's nice. I will also say that, although I'm a firm believer that "it's the operator, not the equipment", that these irons have dropped 3-5 strokes off my game. I've shot nothing higher than 86 with them, and have been as low as 80. They are accurate, and believe it or not LONGER than my big oversize, stronger lofted irons. I'm 55 years old, but in good shape, and I now pull out the 6-iron for those 180 yard shots versus 5 iron in my old set. I will say that, although I can hit the 3 iron, at my level I'll probably go with an iron-wood - sometimes the 3 iron goes 210 yards, but other times only 190. That sweet spot is awful small. Other than that, I love 'em. If you've never hit Mizunos, you owe it to yourself to give it a try. The only qualification I'd recommend is that you need to be at a level where you've got a swing that you can hit a 3 and 4 iron consistently - which to me is proof of a decent swing. Otherwise stick with oversize sets.

I just switched to these semi blades from the 845 Silver Scotts and what a difference they have made! The 845s are for players that need a little help on mis-hits but the forgiveability of the 845s sacrifice a little accuracy. These Mizuno Pro IIs are dead accurate and they are long! The trajectory is perfect with a mid level ball flight with the spin to get the ball to drop and stop. The forging is excellent quality and the clubs are not too shiny. I can work the ball easily with these clubs and going back to forgiveability these ProIIs offer some forgiveness on mis-hits. I would highly recommend these clubs to any golfer with a consistent swing that wants accuracy, feel, distance, and some forgiveness.

The only other irons I have owned besides Mizuno are the 1989 Ben Hogan Apex Blades. Nice sticks for their age but the question remains, "Why have all my sets since been Mizuno?" Mizuno makes awesome irons and are arguably the best performing with absolutely the best feel. From the Tzoid Sures, to Pro I, to Tzoid True (blades), MP-14s (the best blades ever), MP-29s (2nd best blades), and MP-33s (sick sticks but not the 14s or 29s), and finally the ProII which I am reviewing. Well i recently lost my swing so I put my MP-14s in the closet. The Pro II is forgiving enough for me to have worked on my swing and get it back. Although forgiving, its not much more forgiving than a blade. HIt it thin or off and you know it immediately. Feedback is the best thing about Mizuno forgings. You know iinstantly if it was pure or not. But with all Mizuno clubs, the sweetspot is like butter!!! When dialed on the sweetspot, ball jumps further and hotter than any iron I have played. Besides the Sures, the Pro II are the longest irons i have played. Forged cavity back irons, workable like a muscle back, with the slith forgiveness of a cavity. That in all sums it up. Beautiful at address with a thin top line. Nice compact shape makes you concentrate on the ball. Forces you to make good swings instead of baseball swings. Thanks to these, I think I can bring out the 14s from the closet.
