Fireinthehole Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 So looking for a one or two iron to replace a 5 wood (better to punch out from under a tree lol), and stumbled across this ad on ebay with the best item description. That mizuno mp h5 looks real nice, would like some input for those that have played them. Obviously I'll try one out with my fitter before, but like to hear some input Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy mobile app My Mixed-Bag: Driver: Mavrik Sub zero, ventus black 7x Fairway: Still looking!

hckymeyer Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 If you want to use it for punching out from under trees, sounds good. If you want to hit it like a normal club, good luck.

Undershooter Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 It's not that bad man. Don't be scared of it. It's pretty forgiving too. Height is the only issue. If you aren't a high ball hitter then steer clear from the 1i. Only 1 thing I'd change in hind sight. I wish I had put a low launching graphite shaft in mine instead of the Ctaper X to save weight. Do you hit the ball pretty straight with your irons? Also I wouldn't expect to hold a ton of greens with that thing either. The mph5 2i with a graphite shaft may be a better match for you if your looking for a true 5w replacement. Freaking loved that guys ebay description btw. Gave me a good laugh.

Sent from my LG-AS990 using MyGolfSpy mobile app Good call on the loft adjustment, I'll have to mess around with my fitters clubs. I also play them shorter, my driver is 44.5", 5 wood is 41.5", 2i 38.75" and definitely helps with dispersion. I used this 2 iron and played a fade with it off the tee when I couldn't hit my driver straight, graphite might help eek out some more yards and like you said save some weight.

Sent from my VS986 using MyGolfSpy mobile app Have to agree with Rev on this one. How often would you seriously use the club in a given round? A club for punching out under trees takes up a lot of space in a 14 club bag. Dave Pelz would tell you to drop it all together and add another scoring club like a wedge. What if you just bent your long irons stronger to create larger yardage gaps between them. You have to seriously consider how often you hit greens from long iron distance to decide if you really need close yardage gaps. Or just play the 4 iron back in your stance.

Ive just been undergoing a return to simplification with a lot of parts of my "game." The courses around here aren't long- sub 400yd par 4s, and narrow and using my old 2i I could play aggressive without excessive misses- look at driver. 2 iron I could see. What's your bag composition? What would you have between the 2 and the 5? That is is huge gap.

revkev Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Sorry I missed your earlier post on the bag. Another option might be to bend the 5 two degrees strong the 6 one and weaken the 2 a few degrees or you could just keep the 5 wood and out 4 hybrid in.
