After the Ping debacle I'm settling on a few irons to try. This one could be tricky though.
MP 52's are the newer kid on the block compared to the 57's but I want to know if anyone's tried both and what the difference is. 57's not being listed by Mizuno any more means almost no chance of trying them out. Trouble is there are some good deals to be had on 57's.

Probably can't afford 58's and probably don't have the game for 62's so the 52's or 57's look like they'll be on the list.

Anyone got any feedback on either/both these?

I tried them both side by side along with the 62's with a few shaft options about a year ago now.

I dismissed the 62's pretty quickly (wont go into it different story)

The choice came down to the other 2 and I plumped for the 57's. They went further and with less spread than the 52's and I just felt really comfortable over the ball with them. Having used them for a year now I'm very happy with my choice , they fly beautifully out of the sweetspot. They're reasonably forgiving for off center shots and boy they look good.

Can I put a spanner in and mention the mp60's I own them and they are fantastic irons, nice and sleek, go really well look fab, and are still forgiving not to mention cheap, if you can track some down.
