hi Mark , i think you should use a mid handicap player to hit them to see how all the average and bad shots do, thats the reason way these clubs have been made to help the none pro player , your hitting great shots all the time so its harder for you to see the benefits , i am a mid handicap player and have tried all these clubs, i hit twenty shots with all clubs , i had more bad shots with the mp and a lot of bad shots with the mmc but the hmb was so much easier to hit a great shot , to me there was a big difference ,

I haven't played for 10 years or so, however on a recent trip to Amsterdam I got dragged off to Amsterdam golf club and played 18. Parred the first, tw#t bombed the following 16 holes and couldn't wait to get off the course and then my approach shot to the 18th green was something magical. A bright light within my head was shining so bright and I had a stupid grin on my face, so I'm going to get fitted as soon as get back to the UK and enjoy this brilliant game once again. I'd like to say this is the best channel on YT and I absolutely love Mark and the guys, nothing pretentious, just honest opinions, keep it up guys. I had to do some research on the comments regarding Mark "signing a deal" & "he can't be impartial now" well I've only been watching the channel for 3 weeks and I think he produces the most honest golf channel on YT. That's my story and ramble and now I can't wait to get back into the greatest of pastimes. I just subscribed too😎

Think I’ve watched this 4-5 times now and need to say it’s probably the most useful video that I have seen you do. So many people get hung up immediately on stronger lofts and whatnot, so they never test them to actually see if the lofts are that way for a reason. Could be the first iron series that I can see myself blending all three since they seem to be so seamless between them Great analysis

My 15 year old daughter hc 2 was fitted for MB’s 5-pw at Bearwood Lakes yesterday at one of their Mizuno tour truck events. We had no intentions of auditioning a set of blades but they’re surprisingly forgiving and deserve the ‘nothing feels quite like a...’ tag. Couldn’t bring ourselves to blend the set either, once you’ve dialled up the correct shaft using their 3D shaft optimiser couldn’t bring ourselves to consider either MMC and HMB as long Irons - for reference we currently use a 3 year old set of Nike Vapor Fly irons paired with vokey wedges, which will also be replaced with their T20 range

I game a Mizuno 56 degree wedge. Had a 50 degree Mizuno wedge also until very recently. Still, when I am ready for my next set of irons I am leaning toward the Ping i500 or Titleist T300. I understand that some better golfers may blend a more forgiving iron in lower lofted clubs but why would lesser talented golfers blend irons? For instance, what would the MMC offer me that I can't get from the HMB? Personally I really don't care about bigger top lines or how a club sounds. Forgiveness is my best friend.

I had a fitting at Mizuno Melbourne a couple of weeks ago, was the best fitting I've had. I was thinking of going hmb 3-6i then mb 7-pw, but after doing some experiments I ended up going hmb 3-9i then a T20 wedge. I wasn't really gaining anything apart from looks going with the mb in the short irons. The hmb are an incredible club, with from what I'm told a different purpose than a club like the i500 or p790. Those clubs use the hollow construction to give max distance were the hmb use to increase consistency

Went in for a fit at a big box when Mizuno came in. Went in skeptical, but was pleasantly surprised on how accurate the shaft optimizer system was in predicting a match personally (Full disclosure, coming from a MP-54 set that was off the rack so mileage may vary). To your point that you preach often, I could FEEL the difference in flex/loading and definitely improved consistency of strike as I was in a different completely different weight. I also like the fact the price does not change much whether you buy a set or single iron with them giving you flexibility. For now, I have grabbed a 5i HMB 2 degrees weak to match the blade lofts. Hoping to transition into a blended set by next season.

I spent 90 minutes at the Mizuno Experience Center and the only thing they had were 7 iron heads for all their lines. They first fitted me for a shaft based on release point, swing speed, etc, then I hit ~20 balls with each of their 7 irons for the 919 and MP series. The fitter never suggested blending for me, though he did acknowledge that people will use HMB for the longer irons. I do not need distance though I fight a hook. The fitter suggested either the MP MMC or the 919 Forged.I hit the MP 20 the straightest but 10 yards shorter than the MMCs.

It will unfortunately be time to retire the old faithfuls early next year. I've been play traditionally lofted (honestly probably a little weaker) blades for years mostly with a 2-PW setup but from time to time I would drop the 2 and 3 to experiment with hybrids. Blending the HMB's and the MB's are a possibility that I am very interested in and most likely I would do a 2-4, maybe the 5 as well, with the HMB's and the rest with the MB's. I work retail (not golf) and one of our regulars is a Mizuno Rep and he brought these two by the store just for me to take a look at and I was very impressed. I will hopefully be able to actually hit a few with each soon.

Hi Mark & Dan, If you want to blend the blade into either of the the other irons from a loft point of view. I wuold leave the wedge as it is then make blades stronger by 1 degree, then when blending to MMC or HMB weaken the loft in those irons by 1 degree to achieve a good blend in loft. Also, hopefully this would sort distance gapping out. I would need to see all three full sets to see where visually the blend would work. I'm thinking wedge, 9, 8 in blade. Maybe 7, 6 in MMC. Then 5, 4 and possibly 3 in HMB. What are your thoughts?

Two critical comments that weren't made - and I just spent 1 hour hitting all these clubs yesterday - and I had my JPX 919 Hot Metal Pro iron there as well as a test: 1) The absolute biggest most noticeable difference in these sets, and including my Hot Metal Pro, is the offset of the new HMB being more than all the rest of the clubs - it was very noticeable and maybe I have more of an offset hate than Dan but I just couldn't do it for that reason alone 2) I hit all the 7 irons with the same shaft as my club, the 120gram S300 Dynamic Gold - and most shockingly, I was very often hitting the MB blade as far as if not further than the other clubs. I started to think I was crazy, but then I began to think why was it happening - and then my brain went to more mass being directly behind the ball in the blade. That said, what wasn't mentioned in this video is forgiveness - and even though I was really purring them yesterday (172-182 with the MB 7 iron blade), I did hit a few not perfectly and you could feel it right away and then the 7 iron was immediately 158 - and from a winner / losers game analysis perspective, my mind started to think that the best club was actually the MMC - because it didn't have the terrible offset of the HMB and even on off center hits there was virtually no fall off I went in thinking blades and HMB but the offset killed the HMB for me - hopefully Mizuno with do a JPX Hot Metal thing and release an HMB Pro with similar offset to the blades If I had to order a set, I would order 9 iron to 6 iron in MMC, strengthen the 6 iron by 1 degree and then order the 4 iron in HMB and add 2 degrees to it to make it play 24 degrees - but what I really want is a 5 iron HMB with less offset
@justinstephenson93605 жыл бұрын
Looks are very personal but you must have a very sharp eye because the difference in offset (according to specs on Mizuno's website) between the blade and HMB is small ranging from 0.05" (about 1mm) in the 3i down to 0.027" (0.5mm) in PW (the difference between MMC and HMB is even smaller 0.01-0.02" per club). I have to admit my eyesight simply isn't good enough to see those differences. I wonder where the JPX 919 range fits now - the 919 Tours were amazingly easy to hit in the mid/short irons even for my limited ability
@wallstreetoneil5 жыл бұрын
@@justinstephenson9360 when you look at all the clubs together it is the very first thing that sticks out in the 7 irons - and, my Hot Metal Pros have an offset less than the MMCs, so when looking at all 4 clubs together, it's the very thing that made the HMB 'look' different - you will have to look at them in person and see for yourself. Maybe if I looked at the club on its own it wouldn't have been the same but if people are going to combo these with the blades, trust me it will be obvious. I know no one is talking about the MMCs, and I went in thinking they would be as ugly as the last model, but I honestly think they are the best clubs - and I never thought I would say that before testing them.

Back in my day, we used to shave with the top line of our blades. :) For me, as an old Hogan blade player, the MBs look quite friendly and are more forgiving than expected. My heart says don't blend, because the 4 feels exquisite hit well. Do I strip away a bit of potential joy just so a bad strike on an HMB would finish 5 yards closer than a bad strike on an MB? It comes down to why I play I guess. I'm getting fitted for MBs soon, and will check out the HMB 4 iron, but to me, hard to hit with a blade really starts with a 3.

I think this video confirms that golf is 95% swing/technique and the remaining 5% is a combo of equipment, luck and psychology. I think based on these numbers it seems the HMB is the way to go as long as the appearance and offset doesn't mess with your swing psychology. Performance is so close, but it seems to get higher with spin and is more forgiving in miss hits.

Mizuno will match up the off-set, lie and loft when you order a combo set, so that you get even yards and can swing them the same way with all the clubs. Before the MP-20, you could get a MP-18 combo set, with 2-3 MMC Fly-hi, 4-5 in MMC, 6-7 in SC and 8-P in MB and it would work just as you would expect with 10 yards intervals.

I would love to get fitted to these clubs. Blending is so important for players in my opinion, very underrated part of club fitting. Plus mizuno clubs are just so damn sexy.

Your spot on about little choice when testing... load of 6 irons or 7 irons.. you ask for a different club and its “ you don’t need those “ great vid guys xx

I get the feeling that the MB and HMB are like gorgeous twin sisters with different personalities, both of whom you could fall in love with for slightly different reasons, whereas the MMC is their weird-looking other sister who gives knee-tremblers in the alley behind the pub.

Mac brilliant analogy
@jacobmccain80824 жыл бұрын
I would say the opposite. I’d say the MB is the hot girl you show everyone but breaks your heart. HMB is good enough but you’re not sure you’ll ever really grow with her. MMC is the ugly duckling/unicorn that grew up hot with a personality.

Really like this swing.

As usual sah, a great piece from the two of you. A tad of acronym overload with MB, MMC, HMB, then a cheeky HMC?? Still, impartiality way above that of the BBC👍

The comparison shows what the club will do optimally. You can blend for continuity on spin and distance gapping (they are pretty much the same). But the reason for combos is not size of top-line or sound. Why take out the mishits? You don’t get mulligans on the course. In the TXG reviews Chris Voshall (Mizuno) makes that point repeatedly. You can allow for your own inconsistency with the forgiveness built into the options past blade without the “hot” fliers. The fitting decision is when the spread starts with the blade more than another option. The dispersion circle on 8 to 10 shots brings the honest reality into the combo split. ...which iron for distance gap and dispersion through the set.

Great video! I agree with that blend! I hope to go for a fitting this fall 👍

So this was the question I was going ask when getting fit for these. I want 6-PW in the MB and 4-5 in HMB. Does this mean the lofts could have the get cranked down on the HMB’s to give the gapping? My head hurts thinking about it
@michaelbarnocki56685 жыл бұрын
Wasn't this the whole point of the video and the idea of blending? They showed they can blend well without changing anything. If you need to go 4-5 in the HMB because you can't hit normal 10-15 yard gaps with the blades, the added loft and tech is there to help you get the proper gaping.

I game the MP 18 and will blend with the MP 20 hmb`s 6 and 5 😄

I'm on the fence between MP20 HMB and the JPX irons. Any comparisons on which iron is meant for whom? I'm a 9 hcp looking to get a better feel and consistency, and the higher lofts of the HMB are refreshing to me as the lofts nowadays are too low!
@vikfm8655 Жыл бұрын
Check out the JPX 923 HL’s (high lofts). That’s what I got and enjoy them.

Titleist is the only company with brass ones big enough to allow these reviews to remain honest. This is why they will always be in the mix when I look at new clubs ... speaking of I just bought a set of T300’s. Forget the anorexic clubs #GoChunky

Mark could you blend the HMB Mp-20 with a jpx 919 forged set? The jpx 919 line doesn’t have a 3 iron in HMB. Or what could you suggest for blending with the Mizunos? Great content!
