Its such a shame that almost no one will ever be able to see a set out being played because everyone will leave them at home. I think the best part of having something like that is being able to get it out and let others experience it as well as enjoying them.

[@lugattinine8451]

Also imagine rocking those on the course every single time.. nobody else will be playing the same ones for sure 😎

[@St0rmB]

The MP-20 irons are some of the most gorgeous irons I've ever seen. I love the look of them.

[@Matty6983]

Just saw a guy selling a set of MP20 on market place for 1300 canadian. In the description he said I am a terrible golfer and bought these on pure sex appeal for 1900+tax a year ago but became more terrible so I had to down grade.

[@AleksanderLydkunst]

Probably some of my favorite irons/wedges are the full Beryllium Copper Ping Eye 2’s 😍

[@robertbogdan7058]

Nice clubs. Ping made copper irons back in the day too. I remember having a Ping Eye 2 two iron in copper. One last comment...Rick, copper doesn't rust, it corrodes. Only iron rusts. Rust specifically refers to oxides on iron or iron alloys, such as steel. Oxidation of other metals has other names. There is tarnish on silver and verdigris on copper, for example. Now you can impress that PhD chemist you tee it up with. :^)

[@mullholand]

Beryllium Copper irons.... the irons you don't kill - they kill you. Well... only if you breath in beryllium dust - which would be difficult to do. But yeah - it is really, really bad for you. I had a beryllium lob wedge and loved it.

[@timdennis2156]

Just adding this comment here because it's your latest video. I am an avid disc golfer (though not very good!), and I've been so inspired by your videos that I ordered my first starter clubs, due tomorrow. I love the concept of golf; whether with frisbees or golf balls, this sport--conceptually, technically, spiritually . . . whatever--beckons the best in you to be a little bit better. I love that. I am so excited to start playing traditional golf at 35, and I plan to keep on watching your channel for clear instruction and an overall good time. Thank you!

I have a set of Mizuno irons....it’s true “nothing feels like a Mizuno”.....period!!!

[@drummerkelly9174]

Yep! I just got a set of Mizunos as well. I absolutely can tell a difference.

[@Iaregodzirra]

@@drummerkelly9174 now i want Mizunos :(

[@SilverloafGolf]

I have 5-6 sets of Mizuno irons, both blades and cavity backs, and another 9 sets from other brands. The Mizuno sets are the best feeling but it's especially so with the blades. There are some other older blades that compare favorably, like Haig Ultras but not quite to the same level. I'll never change back from Mizuno

[@Abdullah_Chill]

Mizuno is my first set of steel irons. Really like it. However, got a Ping driver which is amazing. Anyone compared Ping irons to Mizuno irons?

[@PetSKi67]

I’ve been with Mizuno since replaceing MacGregor Tourney 1025 VIP CM set with Mizuno MP-60, 3-PW. Being truly honest, the hashtag tells it all. I’ve went to demos since long and never found any stock clubs, that would have the same buttery feel as Mizunos. Titleists are hard as a rock, Callaway Prototypes were close, but the 1030 carbon steel was really hard, yet pretty nice. The others match pretty much Mizuno GI-clubs, but the top end in MP-inventory are at their own level with a decent gap in between. And the best part is, Mizuno is not that aggressive in sponsorship, but sell the same issues to customers as for the pros, not making them under the shelf from Miura san. Mizunos are made of the same 1025 steel as the Tourneys were. Never hit Hogan Apex blades, but I hear they are forged from 1025E and returned in the market with different strategy in selling. They don’t use middle men, but direct sell from the factory. The ICON blades are something, I’d love to try.

[@AlwaysUpgrade]

I got #80/500 and I finally put them in the bag after 2 weeks of debating whether I should just display them on my living room wall. They are just way too gorgeous. I literally got chills opening that black Mizuno box. And then I got bigger chills after puring my first 9 iron on the course. That click. That feel. Butter. Your reaction after striping that first 8 iron, was my exact expression. Wow. Just wow. Thank you @Mizunogolf for making these. $2,020? #worthit

[@DuTch_-0-]

They can seal them to not rust/oxidize. You can also use a polish to keep them for oxidizing. Those are also gorgeous iron's more companies should make them and take the proper measures to not oxidize. Rick Shiels keep up the great work with your content and Thank you!!!

[@brianellis5146]

Rick, you should play them. I imagine the patina oxidation would probably add to the iron spin like the "raw" finish wedges that were designed to rust and boost spin. How do they compare in terms of swing weight? Is the copper thicker to compensate for the lack of steel? I do love how marketing has enabled a company to sell unfinished products for a premium price. 🤣

[@hankmardukas1424]

new to the game, didnt think i would love it this much. gotta say, your enthusiasm makes me want to go play 18! but for now, ill stick to learning how to even hit a ball at the range (and watching your videos to learn obviously). thank you for all your help you have given me as it is!

Chris Harris, LOL! I was stupid enough younger to sell Ping copperheads ridigulously cheap. Still, after some 25 years feel bitter for selling them.

[@rg1809]

I remember waiting for my Mizunos to arrive...felt just like Rick. And just like Rick, just marveled at the beauty of the clubs for an hour. After each and every practice/round, I would meticulously clean and polish the clubs. I've played many clubs but Mizunos are just something special, maybe like a Ferrari?

[@richardoakley6560]

I’m sorry, I can’t see buying a set of clubs without playing them at least once.

Idk know if you know this but copper doesn't rust like iron or steel. That's why it's used alot in plumbing. it might oxidize though which might be the "rust" you see. I'd put some sort of oil or protective coat on them so they stay in that beautiful state! Otherwise over the years it may corrode and turn bluish green which might look pretty cool as well 🤷🏼‍♂️

_"And that can go back in there, never to be used again."_ *Whaaaaaaat!?*

[@jujitsudwight]

Don't know if anyone has said this yet but one of the bonuses to copper is that it doesn't rust. what it does is oxidises over time which creates the green looking layer which can be confused for rust, this actually protects the metal from further corrosion and should be able to be cleaned off easily enough. So you don't have to worry about them rusting they won't and as long as look after them I doubt the green layer will form very much either.

[@charlieodom9107]

You really outdid yourself this time with an amazing set of golf clubs . Wow, you have to be so proud of the work that Mizuno has done. That is one of the reasons why I am switching to play with these clubs have been impressed by the work they put into making their clubs,

[@rickymcculley3934]

They are nice looking for sure but .....yes there’s a “BUT”, I’d feel really cheated if I bought those for that price because the copper is what they use to get the nickel and chrome to bond to the heads. Aren’t they saving some money by not coating them and if so shouldn’t they sale them cheaper? 🤔#justthinkingoutquiet

[@jaybyrne4562]

That's not what Mizuno said, when they made these, they said they used to do it years ago on older clubs, when they blind tested people, with clubs with copper underlay and ones without, almost everyone said they preferred the ones with. So now MP20s have copper under them. These were only made because people asked for them that way. Not trying to save money, it was customer request driven.

[@Twyer24]

Ur both right. They used to use the copper for adhesion and feel. And they went away from it for years and as a experiment they brought it back and blind tested and it was night and day for testers. And due to all the hype around the copper heads it almost forced them to bring out copper only heads. Soooo when demand is high. Make em pay! Cha ching.

Rick, Copper does not rust. Copper does corrode but if cleaned properly they will last a long time. I have a copper belt buckle that is 50 years old and looks as good as new. Brasso does wonders keeping bass looking new. I would put them in my bag and play a round with them now and then.

[@ApHoney]

Go to the local Electric supplies store and buy “de-ox” or “no-ox” it’s a clear/green grease like material, you should get a microfiber cloth and just barely coat each of the club heads with it. They’ll last forever. We use it for all of our terminations to help prevent corrosion on copper and aluminum.

Rick, I hate to write this but the "standard" Mizuno irons, being forged, are Chrome plated. They do not have a stainless steel finish. As far as I know, the only forged SS irons were the very old Kenneth Smith irons from back in the 1960's and 70's.
