Where’s Michael been?
Ping i530?
Wilson Dynapower forged right up there at a better price
The new cobra king tec is the best iron of all time…… wow what a feeeling
Recently seen a lot of cracked & dented hollow body faces on the forums. Is there a chs threshold to stay under?
Very useful info! I am currently agonizing over a MP243/245 blended set. I am wondering how you handled the loft transition between the two? It does not seem a simple as matching the loft progression because of the 245's spin and launch differences ….
Where's Mikey??
"This thing was like a 1-legged duck!" Hahaha.
Love these standardized category comparos. Should be playing on the TVs in every big box store.
Loving my 245s so far.. And I'm far from hitting the middle!
If the callaways came in chrome. Id be in. No way am i paying for a black iron
So do you play all your irons bent 3 degrees? are you playing your wedges around 66-67 lie?
U505 220 yards
T200 utility 210 yards
T350 6 iron 200 yards
T100 5 iron 190 yards
Cavity back irons are great for distance also height compared to mb or cb irons
one legged duck…hahahahahahahahaha
Luke Donald took the 245s!
“Performance is hard to argue…” They’re all basically within the standard deviations of each other!?!? And that’s in a controlled setting. Out in the wild they’re essentially interchangeable.
No Wilson Dynapower Forged irons? They are better than all of these
is this a 'players' hollow body category whereas the P790 and i530 etc… come under player distance?
Great video idea! If my wife and kids didn’t need to eat, I’d consider one of these! Especially the ones that come in a dark finish!
Takomo supposed to have a good one no? Maybe not a 2024 range or in the matrix…?
I really like the p770 I got them about 5 months ago and I'm playing some of the best golf in my life with them, what was interesting to me is for you as well they have a slight draw bias . I thought it was just me. I don't hit my 7 iron as far as you do however front to back dispersion is excellent
Titleist t series. I'll never change again.
It would be an interesting comparison between the Callaway, Thai fusion, and the cobra printed irons
Thanks Great review.. all very close but I love the Mizuno 245 looks and feel….
Should be a bigger club sample size
Ti-Fusion expensive AF, should be using the Ai200 irons
Sub 70 makes some nice ones imo
What irons do you have in that bag next to the launch monitor, looks like the pro 243s, if so how do you like them
I definitely feel the P770's are more draw biased than any other iron set I tried in the hollow body realm. I play a natural draw as it is and noticed that these irons end up left an additional 5-10 yards compared to my older set of clubs with a 6 iron. It's very consistent but I have a darn near impossible time hitting a fade.
Should it not be p790 and not p770 for more comparable iron?
Ti fusion is hard to beat. Performance and price tag. haha. Thank you!
i had a prior gen p770 and couldnt stop them going left
I love my Mizuno Pro 245's. As forgiving as any player improvement club, if not more, and they feel so, so smooth … like butter! And there isn't a better looking iron anywhere. Just BEAUTIFUL!!!
Maybe include landing angle on these?
I'm an absolute CLUB WHORE. I have new sets of irons every month, etc. I have the Ti-fusion…they are the best irons I have ever hit, and are not leaving my bag. They are unreal.
Great review Ian. Where's Mikey?
Was just fit with the 245s (5-PW) after playing MP-59s for 10 years. Was blown away by how workable they are for how much tech/forgiveness they have.
Tried to be un-bias in the fitting – Mizuno really had the secret sauce with these.
I wish you had included the Apex AI 200 since the price is more in line with others and likely a significant factor notwithstanding the Ti Fusion performance. Have you done the Ti Fusion side by side to the AI 200?
I’ve been away from the game for many years and decided to get back into the fold. Tested a few players irons this fall and ended up purchasing a set of the Mizuno 245’s. (4-PW) I only had a chance to play them 4 times before the courses started shutting down for the season but man they are great set of irons. They look great, feel great and the distance is bang on no matter how flush or off centre the strike is. No more rocket balls over the back of the green if I hit it flush like my old game improvement irons. 👍
Now I’ll have to look at/test some new drivers come spring. My old one from 2003 is leaving some yards on the table I think. 😆
Ti Fusion $2100 a set wowzer
I play with the Mizunos. Hands down one of the best iron's i've ever played.
Great review vid! 🫡
I started the season with the T200s, moved on to the PXG 0311P Gen 6, then the P790s, and finally settled on the Mizuno Pro 245s. The 245s are incredible and won't be leaving my bag anytime soon. I wish that I had started with Mizuno; I could have saved many dollars 😂
Ping i530? 😢
Got fit into the PXG 0317T in June. My strokes gained approach has dropped by 2 with them. Great clubs, forgiving but you can tell when you miss it. Not super long but also no jumpers. Very consistent flight and spin. Love them.
Wish there would have been a ping in there to
As you mentioned Ian, the figures most people would be worried about in that comparison is the price figures. No doubt the Ti fusion performed well, as did all the irons tested, but that price is prohibitive for most folks.
