I know what shaft I want, but am undecided on whether to use a cavity back or muscle back head .Currently trying out Mizunos in both. What are the pros and cons please?

For me, a mishit cavity back goes the same distance but left or right of target, a mishit muscle back stays straight but loses distance.

Blades look better in the bag and are gorgeous to hit when you're playing well.
Cavity backs still go ok when you're not swinging great, on the proviso that you find the face somewhere near the middle.
The only other difference I found was that blades were easier to use for little touchy feels shots around the green.
You don't happen to want PX6.0 do you? If so I've got a set of blades you could try to see how you get on.

I have just got MP5s having come from a player cavity for years (Ping S59 tours, then Adams CMB). I tried both the mp5 and the mp25. I was thinking of a combo set with mp25 4-6 and mp5 7-PW, I actually hit the 5 better and prefered the looks and feel. I pumped for the mp5 4-PW.
What irons do you currently play?

I got a set of Jpx 850 forged fully custom fit at the start of last season. Really easy irons to hit. A bit too long for me i think.Miss hits were still going as far however reaching the rubbish. I've now put them in the cupboard and bought a set of older style taylormade Mb. If I mis hit it I'm losing 20 yards. I'm happy with that punishment.
If I got fitted again I would do 4 iron CB and maybe the 5 iron and the rest blades

What heads do you have on the PX 6.0 Region 3?

I tried the Mp5 at AG and was hitting those sweet s a nut off the mat. Not tried them off the grass though.

The PX shafts are very marmite though so if it's not those you've chosen they might not be the best example of a blade for you to try.

We can meet for a knock and I'll give them a go.The pro said the two shafts were very similar.

Nick, I now have a set of CB/MB, your welcome to give them a hit, regular shafts if that makes a difference

Has Adam got the new JPX900 Mizuno's in yet, if so, why not try a combo set with the Hot Metal, Forged & Tour?

If you are looking at Mizuno blades then give the MP15 a go, they are the nicest irons I have ever used and they aren't too bad on a slightly miss-hit one either

I'm going to try Garys' PX 6.0 and take it from there.I think Adam has the JPX900 in his shop now Robin.Well he's got the heads and shafts for trying out.

There's a Ping demo day at my club at the end of the month. Been tempted by the I model, but having tried the I blade recently and finding that easy to hit, easier than I expected, I'm interested to see some numbers comparing the two

I went for MP5 for long irons (3 & 4) but MP59s for 5-PW. Best of both worlds as you get foregivness and fell throughout.
