hey there bravo!
you're damn right it is cold!
i haven't had a chance to hit those irons yet but i do play with mizuno t-zoid pros...i've had them for about 5 seasons and they are amazing! beautifully crafted and the feel from them is unbelievable.
i don't think i'll ever get rid of them!
the thing is that they are fairly hard to hit but when you do hit them you can shape the ball anyway you want. probably the same for the mx23s they look a bit like the proIIs.
so my advice would be to get them.

thanks fatbob... i play i high draw with my driver but i just play i high straight shot with my irons... i dont really try and work the ball... unless i try and slice one around a tree

... i wish i can keep a set of irons for 5 years... i always think that the next set is going to get me to that next level... i know its the indian and not the arrow... but you need a good bow to shoot that arrow

true true
i just love these irons. same with my putter haven't changed that in three seasons since i got as a present. absolutely love it.
same for my fairway woods, i got them when i was 14 (10 years ago) and even then they were second hand...but i just really like them. i change the grips every season of course.

now drivers...that is another thing altogether! oh and wedges, i've had a few wedges in my time.

i think you just have to be happy with your clubs, confidence is everything, once that doubt starts to creep in there is no going back!

my dad had the same set, in fact it was a half set, for about 20 years. then i persuded him to get a full set. he did and he dropped 5 strokes off his handicap just by having a full set! but now he is addicted to changing clubs! ooops...although it at least makes buying him christmas presents easy, this year it's a 2-ball putter...

I hit the MX23's at Golfsmith for about 30 minutes ( into a simulator ) They feel good and solid. It is a players club as opposed to a game improvement club. With your handicap they should be fine, but you'll play well on talent, because you won't get a lot of help on days when you are a little off. Good luck! We'll watch for your reveiws!
