Mizuno MX-200 Irons really are game improvement clubs that the mid capper can grow with, and may even choose to keep once he hits low capper status. Hey--it wouldn't surprise me to see scratch players in search of forgiveness sporting these babies in their bag. I do believe I have found my next set of irons once I wear out the current set in my bag. Here's the low down on the sweetest, creamiest, buttah, money can buy in the game improvement department. These carry on with that proud Mizuno tradition of offering up as much balance as a tippy-toed ballerina, with the feel of pure unadulterated buttah at impact. The balance is absolutely precise on these things. Club head awareness from smooth and easy take away to back of the neck follow through is textbook Zen. The Mizuno MX-200 Irons club head doesn't tell you where it is--you just know. You really might discover the sound of one hand clapping after all. I'm in love with the balance of these things. I had to do a double take on the label to make sure these really were game improvement clubs. They sure didn't feel like it.
The technologies Mizuno has come up with lately range from the bizarre to the "Why didn't anyone ever think of that before?" variety, as well as the usual round of industry standards that have been given fancier names and hyped as new ideas. On Mizuno MX-200 Irons it's pretty much the why didn't anyone ever think of that before variety, as well as the industry standard. The "Y Tune" technology that they use in the cavity is a sort of hybrid between cavity backweighting, and weight plugs moved about in different spots as one goes up the set. Basically, it's a way to "enlarge the sweet spot" according to the company. Actually, the sweet spot is made a bit larger out toward the toe area, but not as exponentially as they would have you believe. What has been enlarged exponentially is the "Safe Hitting Zone" as I like to call it. It basically minimizes the distance loss off of toe hits. There's a reason Mizuno MX-200 Irons are winning all the awards for game improvement clubs this year "They're the best!" They offer distance, feel, spin, control, workability, accuracy, and durability. Have I left anything out yet? Loft and lie adjustments are easy with forged clubs, so not only do you get all this built in technology--you can have the clubs bent to match your particular swing.

I purchased these to have something more forgiving since I was playing Ping I3 blades. Since I don't play as often I decided to buy something that would dampen mishit. I have a personal driving range and I found that my swing fault followed me, go figure :) Anyway, my 1st round was a disaster, but it wasn't the clubs. After the disaster I practiced all week with them, along with a major revision in my setup and shot 73 in my second round with them. So, they were redeemed. One thing I've noticed is that the offset is hidden well in the design of the club. I have never cared for offset, but it's almost invisible in this club. They feel really good in my hands and the thicker sole from the Ping's now seem normal.
