rock them feet, get that hip back, your body is a bullwhip, your shoulder is the handle..... and yyour boudy from your shoudler across to your back leg is the analog of your arm holding the bullwhip..... start your downswing with a rock the other way in your feet and a partial sitting motion, shifting forward weght and going to front heel, get your hands down faster and release the club as your hands aapproach your back thigh.... tee it high and let it fkn fly bro!!!

Big Al is a beast. His club head speed is not indicative of an average golfer by any stretch. Don’t feel bad, it made feel less of a man as well, 100mph 7 iron 😂😂😂. My driver barely touches 97. Only in my dreams could I justify putting these irons in my bag. I looked at them yesterday and they are absolutely beautiful works of art but I have no business playing with these. 17 handicap

@jeremybolin5832 3 месяца назад

Just had my son fitted for these irons. Fitted to the nippon modus 125 shafts in standard length. He was getting some impressive numbers with a 6 iron 205- 210 yards with the longest being 230. I'm lucky if I hit my 3 wood that far. May just have to get fitted for a set myself.

They're almost the same club - add in the Titleist T200....very similar performance from all of them. I ended up in the T200's - the launch conditions on the day were better for me - although I'm sure I would have been happy with any of them.

Don't worry about what clubs you use, get lessons and improve your technique. At 18, clubs will make next to no difference. Improve your game and your course management.

@chrisgilligan4968 4 месяца назад

@@sandersson2813 I agree that lessons are a better investment than new clubs. If the 18 handicap is using less forgiving clubs - then there is definite benefit in a club upgrade....in conjunction with the lessons in a perfect scenario.

Hey Al, I have an idea. Find an old set of 845's silver scott irons and compare them to these Mizunos. I mean the 8 iron from the 845's was 40⁰. I would sure love to see the difference in the materials and how the ball jumps from the faces. Anyway, I'll get back to my day job. Love the content. ❤ 100 👍

Got my 245 sticks 3 weeks ago. And i love them, switched from jpx921 irons.

@chrisgilligan4968 4 месяца назад

Which model of the JPX921? I actually played the JPX921 Tours for a couple seasons but was struggling with consistency hitting the middle of the face. Launch conditions weren't ideal, and I was having a lot of inconsistency with distance control. These 245's weren't out yet when I bought my clubs, and ended up switching to the Titleist T200 - which are essentially the same as these.

I have the first in the series- the MP20 HMB. And am pretty sure here will be my next

@joeperez3520 4 месяца назад

I also have the 1st gen hollow MP-20 HMB, and thought the same as you, that I would move to the 245. However, when I tried the 245's I found that the MUCH smaller head size, which Mizuno seems to have gone with in order to entice more play-YAHs to try and use them, made them as difficult to use as a normal blade or player's cavity back. I demoed the 245 and was appalled at how unfriendly they were, despite the "friendly" hollow-body construction. I strongly suggest that you demo them OUTDOORS on grass before deciding. No astroturf demoing.

@miroaltrev 4 месяца назад

I have the mp20 hmb and recently bought the 245’s. Yes the 245’s are smaller and have less offset -not that different in my mind but yes different. They play about half a club longer. 8-pw feel better but interestingly I think 4-5 iron are a little louder. In my mind they are an upgrade but I do agree they also suit a slightly lower handicap range than the hmb did.

@mrjackiemoua 4 месяца назад

Think I may do this same set up if I don’t get the cobra king tour irons. Think the king tours just feel better.

@PaulOrong 4 месяца назад

I've been a loyal Mizuno iron for nearly 30 years. MP14 were in my bag for nearly +8yrs. Then I moved to the MP33 (in my opinion their best iron ever) those stayed in my bag for 14 years (2 sets) - I then went to the JPX 900 Forged for nearly 7 yrs - UNTIL - I went and tested the Mizuno 245. - GAME CHANGER - Unbelievable amount of tech and performance. At age 62 I was hitting the 7 iron 175-180 (carry) - 15 yds longer per club. I don't see these as a "distance iron" instead it should be called a "Dispersion killer". My carry yardage tightened up by about +/- 5 yds. I don't want my 7 iron on the fly 180 - so I had my Mizuno 245 irons loft lowered by 4 degrees ( from 30 degrees to 34 degrees) - my carry yardage for my 7 iron is now 170 and my normal ball flight is in a little higher window (105 - 110") - but I can easily knock down my shots with these irons as well. I did have to adjust my wedges to accommodate the yardage of my PW (130-135yds) so I got a gap wedge that carries 120-125 yds / SW 110yds - 115yds / 58" wedge for 90-105 yds. I only carry PW to 5 iron - then put in a 5 hybrid 185-195yds and 7 wood 210-220 yds. Took out my 3 wood and added a 5 wood (because I can hit it much better in the fairway and still get nearly the same yardage as a 3 wood off the tee. for my 230-245yds shots. Best iron Mizuno has ever made.

@hoejyland 4 месяца назад

Put them head to head against the T150s....thought the 150s actually felt more like Mizuno's than the...Mizunos. Preferred the top line of the Titleist's too; thought the 245 was a little beefy

@ktomjr1 4 месяца назад

Why not the T100s? I like both the T150s and T100s, along with the MP 241s. I thought kind of the same thing, that the Ts had a really great feel in my hands, very nice thin top line, and felt really good at impact. But I just couldn't get the spin rate up at that 7k mark on the 7i as consistently as I could the 241. I'm trying to figure out which irons to get and it's so difficult. I'm also looking at the Blueprint 2, which also has a less beefy top line than the 241, and I can get the desired spin rate more consistently than the Ts. So tough!

@chrisgilligan4968 4 месяца назад

@hoejyland: The T-series from Titleist is similar to this series from Mizuno. The T100 is like the 241, T150 is like the 243 and the T200 is like the 245.

@Xmrspitz 3 месяца назад

Mizuno is great and all.. played mp32 for my first set, then bought a set of mp18 which I loved the most. But I found a set of Miura mb101 irons on marketplace for fairly cheap. So I couldn’t pass them up. Don’t care for a 7 to go 200 yards, I like absolutely no roll out and accuracy in my shots. All the power to everyone chasing distance and forgiveness though. It’s just not for me.

@acknasty 4 месяца назад

I guess that’s one opinion. I am a mid handicapper that grew up on blades when I started in the 90s. I personally love a thin top line and the look of a blade. I cannot hit a giant game improvement iron because I find the chunky profiles hideous. So for me the 245 is amazing. I’ve had mine for two months now and I adore them.
