Mizuno MX-200


Recommended Posts

  • SPY VIP

I hit these at the range for the first time today. I am amazed. Dynalite Gold S300 shafts. The ball flight was really high and long. The 7 was missing from the demo set so I took the 8 and went out with 7's from both the Cleveland Black pearl (non tour) and the Callaway Edge.

 

Edge was junk. Sorry if you love these. To me they were very thick on the top and gave very little feedback. All shots felt similar. They are not junk, i guess, I just didn't like hitting them.

Cleveland irons were great again. I have assumed they would be the next set when my 090 Burners are done. I was so pissed at my play this morning that "done" may be sooner than I thought...

Took the Mizunos out because I could take three clubs and I wanted to hit their GI offering. I now have a better reference for the description, buttery. Wow, I was unprepared for how much I would like these. Crazy thing was that I hit the 8 the same distance as the other 7 irons. Much higher ball flight too. Kind of obvious there, it does have more loft. However, it went as far as the others. Amazing. I am going to give my burners a stern warning. Maybe I'll print out a picture of these and put it in my bag. It is a good thing that I don't have $700 laying around. These could have come home today.

 

Anyone game these? Similar experiences?

I'm looking at 3 of the 4 sets you are talking about... We have a similar game from the sounds of it (you seem a little better than me, but close), but how forgiving are these compared to the Burners. They are the only clubs I have hit and they seemed to play great for me... Off center hits seemed to correct themselves, and I felt more confidence hitting them...

 

I'm not worried about distance, since I'm comfortable with how for I hit it now, I'm more concerned about the ball going where I want it...

 

I've never hit Mizuno's but from the reading on here, I an loving what see so far...

I do like my Burners. They feel great when I hit them flush, let me know when I dont. And they are long. I didn't look at Mizuno when I bought them, assuming that they were all player's irons. The MX200s would work for me for sure. Hit them when you shop.

That does look better and to be honest it would not take much to feel better. It would be a big jump from the other edge to the 200's though in feel.

Like me to the pro tour type of jump.

The main difference between the Edge and the Edge Tour is look and flight. There is a slight feel difference, but not to much. The edge tour's don't look so much like a shovel, just a little bit... like a trowel..

I was amazed with the top line on the 200's. Didn't look GI to me. The Burners do this by colors and shading. These just are sleeker.

The mx200's just do not get a lot of looks at the shop. I shall try again tomorrow. Perhaps I missed something.

Looks wise, remember that I had the non-tour edge and the Machspeed as the other demos. Ball flight was the truly amazing thing though.

 

Sets for $500 4-G on the bay too...

That seems high for Flea bay. I'll check into it tomorrow, and post back the price we have them for.

Pics taken, will try to get home and upload them. here are my observations. MX300 is slightly shorter from heel to toe, and a bit thinner on the topline. The sole of the 300 is also a bit narrower. Both sets feature a Killed leading edge, which I prefer for the types of turf we play on up here. Pics to follow later tonight... If I can figure it out.

It looks like your links don't have a .jpg at the end of the file name. If you can PM me or any other mod/admin the website address of your album, one of us can possibly help you get your photos properly linked. Thanks!
