What Golf Clubs Are You Using?

Many golfers are happy to simply purchase clubs from Wal-Mart or K-Mart and go on with only playing a few times during the year. They could not care at all about what type of shafts they are playing, how long the clubs are or what loft and lie angle they are either. But when you decide to take the game a little more seriously, what should be your first step? Fitting! But first you need to find out what you have in your hands before you can decide which way to go with the alterations of your equipment.

Now, a good golf pro or club maker will be able to help you out, but if you want to make things a little easier for them and at the same time want to learn a little about Mizuno MX-300 Irons yourself, I suggest looking for the specs yourself. They are getting back to updating regularly and you should be able to find out what you are looking for. If not, send them an email and they will help the best they can. Another option is to call the manufacturer directly to find the specs, you will always be able to find someone who has been there long enough to rattle the numbers right off the top of their heads without even looking at an old product catalog!

If you have some clubs you cannot find any info on at all, its time to go to the Golf Pro or Club Maker. They can measure the irons for swing weight, shaft flex, grip size, loft, lie, etc. They can then record the specs and any changes you may have made to them for future use. Most services for your standard spec check and loft and lie change are around $5 per club with any other services for re-shafts, re-grips etc.

While MP irons will always win a beauty contest, with their sleek profiles and shiny forged heads giving them plenty of shelf appeal, the Mizuno MX-300 is also a nice-looking club. It will appeal to good ball strikers who like to look down on a reasonably slim profile and top line at address and prefer a clubhead that frames the ball neatly, rather than dominating it. The cosmetics are understated, with no flashy markings other than the muted black weight pockets in the cavity, which are not visible at address.

I always suggest you know what you are playing and making sure that it is fit for you. It takes just a little time and a little money up front, but the more things you can get right before you even step out onto the tee, the better the chance you will have of making a successful golf swing and a more enjoyable round.

The cambered sole cuts through the turf with ease and the clubhead delivers a pleasingly high trajectory, with plenty of forward momentum. The lofts are slightly stronger than standard, so you have to temper your excitement and anticipation of newly-found power, with the knowledge that you've got a few less degrees in your hands (the 6-iron has a loft of just 29 degrees). I found the feel exceptionally solid from within a few millimetres of the centre of the clubhead.

Overall it's an Mizuno iron with the feel and playability of an MP iron and some built-in forgiveness. Besides, its the dead of Winter, what else are you going to do with your clubs?
