I play the MP 60 irons...they are amazing! Highly recommend for value for money!
I've been playing MP 60s for the past 10 years. Grew up playing Hogan Apex blades, switched to Ping irons in 1998 (18 Hdc). After an initial 10 stroke drop in my handicap (8-10) my game fell apart. Could not feel the shots and control slowly went away and I was lucky to brake 90. Then about 10 years ago I saw the MP 60s on Craigslist list for $200. The look and feel was a breath of fresh air. My hdcp is now in the single digits and going lower. There's nothing better than the feel of a Mizuno iron.
Great video! Would love to see a video on some cheaper balls that would perform reasonably well!
I bought a set of these from eBay 2 years ago after I watched this video. They are great. I just came back to watch again. Thanks for the heads up.
Thanks For Watching Guys! Comment down below what you want to see next!
Would love to see a budget 3 wood next.
What about putters?
Golf balls would be great, cheap or lake balls
Great vid man!🤙 I can’t believe you got those that cheap! I hope I win them 🤞. I’d love to see you review the difference in hitting Cobra one length irons versus regular irons.
The sub 60 series...the clubs of the players who have shot a round below 60
Got a set of mp60’s in 2010 for free from a member when I started the game and started caddying. Won’t ever change, they’ve taught me how to strike the ball and now I have a consistent swing and game. Best irons ever. I don’t ever want to change them. Nothing feels like a mizuno
Keep going on bargain irons!! So many brands so many styles ( blades, game improvement, players distance etc.)
I’m a 7 handicap and a Mizuno fanatic!! I’d love to have these in the bag!
I have some TAylormade 300 forged irons that have been forged by Miura they are 18 years old.They feel superb and fly the ball really well..Only thing I would be checking is the lofts because older forged clubs lofts weaken over time with hitting balls...some of mine were 3 degrees weak!! Than the spec sheet.....I would love them Mizuno if I win them they look mint condition
I have had 2 sets of Taylor Made 300s over the last 15 years. They still smash any of the latest gear to come out today...... So ridiculously pure!!
For the next video I'd love to see driving irons vs hybrids for mid to high handicap golfers and which are better suited for the mid to high handicap golfers. Great video as always!
I started golf in 2016. I was 28 at the time. I come from ice hockey background so striking the golf ball with a "stick" felt natural for me. I went online and bought a set of lh titleist 981 dci 2-pw made in 1998 for 80 dollars CDN. Got my handicapp down to 13 with those irons. I replaced them with the 714 cb forged this year which I bought for 300 CDN off craigslist. 714 feels the same as the dci. Maybe a touch more forgiving. I still have the 2 iron dci in my bag. As much as the manufacturer talk about improving club technology, I believe it's just marketing. Some of my friends didn't even know I changed clubs just by glancing at my bag as they look very similar to each other. If you want to play on a budget, you may want to purchase any high end irons from 10-20 years ago. Just spend the rest of the money left over on lessons or more rounds of golf. Any titleist cb , mizuno mp, are crafted just as good as any irons made currently. My playing partner plays scratch and he plays with ping eye 2 and that set is well over 30 years old. (He has gotten them reshaft ed however)
Would love to see a video on cheaper golf balls as the “best” ones are very dear!
I use to own a set of the Mizuno MP-60s, and then I sold them to a police officer that was a regular at the driving range that I visited often. I ended up buying the Mizuno MP-67s brand new shortly after I sold the MP-60 and still own the MP-67s to this day.
You are now my favourite presenter on TH-cam mate keep up the great work
Gary Smith Thanks Gary! 🙌
@@SASGolf who is this Gary Smith imposter hehehe...Hello Gary!!
Great deal. I picked up a set from Ebay for 73£ inc. postage, so same sort of deal. Specifically I wanted Mizuno blades or shallow cavities on Dynamic Lite stiff. I had to regrip them (25£, do that myself) and add some weights. So total an awesome set of irons for 100£.
They feel like butter, shape the ball exactly like intended, they're not too hard to play, Sure you will find they play a bit shorter than modern clubs, but that's mostly because the loft has gone done year on year and now you find that the 7 iron is 32-33 degrees, not the 35 of the MP60.
20 seconds in and I'm searching eBay for a set haha
I bought a set of MP60 in 2008 and still play them. I love them. Only irons that could change my mind about keeping the MP60 til the end of my life could be the MP20. They look stunning. I would feel bad though to give my beloved MP60 away.
BTW, I have the same shaft in my MP60. Dynamic Gold R300. Works great for me.
I would love to see a video of the old Honma irons vs new ones
And also I am a junior golfer and I really need some new clubs
Thanks
I am a 15hcp and you are totally right, this irons gives you plenty of feedback. If you hit them off center and especially in cold weather, you feel it from your hands up trough your arns and down your spine. I like that, because it lets me try everything to hit them better. If you hit them well, it is such a nice feel, like a hit knife through butter. Maybe my score would be better with cavity backs, but I love the look and feel of those MP60, so would never want to exchange them by cavities. Golf for me is all about fun and looking at those nice clubs and playing them makes fun.
I still think you should try the Ping Rapture Driver 👍🏻
I still use my Rapture driver, must be 10 years old. I haven't hit a driver since that has felt nearly as good.
Robert Honeyball I cant find anything to replace it! ⛳️. ☄️🏌🏻♂️
I think mine is the V2 model. Diamana blue shaft, superb.
Robert Honeyball I have the original. I think it’s around 13 years old but I still rip it by all my playing partners and there brand new drivers 😂
Got mine 10 years ago for under $200 5-PW. Still in the bag. Nothing better!
I would love to see a comparison of Ping Eye 2s to a modern set of irons.
I think Rick Shiels did a video with Ping Eyes 2s. They performed great. They still go for like $250.
MP-60 were my first set of Miz. Even when I moved to other models, I swore I'd never trade 'em in. Broke my heart when the vacation home I kept them in was burgled. 😭
I've got a MP60 7 iron. The rest of my set are mp30. I lost the 7 iron and bought the wrong 7 iron on ebay
Got mp30 too best iron ever made
Just back playing after 35 years away from golf. Using very old Comp Ez Zoid Mizuno irons, missing the 5 iron, but they still go great. Those MP 60 irons look super.
Hey man love the series you should do a video on any clubs from a high street shop
P.S Would love to win those irons !!!
David Dolan great idea mate!
I loves the video where you basically debunked or said what was helpful and what wasn't. Very honest and unbiased!
Must be time for a Callaway 9 wood 🤣🤣
I use to own a set of Mizuno MP-60 irons back when they were new. Of course I sold them when I bought a set of Mizuno MP-67 blades back when those came out and still have them to this day.
You can never go wrong with Mizuno. How about some bargain wedge sets?
These irons would be amazing! Started the year at 15 handicap and now down to 11. My current irons are just not what I need anymore and these look incredible!
As a Mizuno fanatic I’d love to win them for exactly the reason you said. Handicap down to 11.5 this season (not bad for an old fella) and looking for a winter set to improve ball striking to get lower next year. That was an incredible price for the condition and an absolute steal. Great content sah 👍
Unbelievable - 6 weeks ago bought a set of Mizuno MP62 (3-PW) fitted with Icomic Grips and SST pured NS Pro Stiff in VGC - £105 on eBay - kept them as spare and two weeks ago bought set of MP64 (5-PW) with Project X5.5 with brand new multi- compound grips for £130 now they are the gamers - the MP62 must of cost best part of £900 built - unreal bargains for these type of clubs - excellent bats so I love this video 👍👍
I recently sold my old Callaway Steelheads (graphite) for $100. When the kid (he was about 14) showed up, I liked him and he was struggling to afford by mowing lawns, so I threw in 2 old King Cobra fairway woods and an old i3 lob wedge I had and gave him some used balls. As a member, I get free range balls, so he meets me about twice a week and I snag him a free bucket. I hope to see him on TV someday.
Started playing them with 54 handicap, I had hard times playing these clubs but I can feel how I am getting more consistent and precise, had the offer to change them to cavity backs but I couldn’t give them away. In 4 tournaments I got to 26, I absolutely love them
Just picked up a second hand set of these trying to get back into golf slowly after putting it away for 15 years. And I must say they are pretty damn good for what I paid. Genuinely impressed
Inspired me. After this I looked on eBay and purchased an immaculate set of MP5’s. saved me £800 compared the new MP20’s I had been considering. Gamble paid off they are everything I wanted. Love this series of videos. Cheers pal! 👌
+njamesthomasl excellent news! Great find mate!
A Joy to see those clubs in your hands. I love Mizuno irons, nothing feels better - as long as you find the sweet spot. Five years ago I had to give up golf due to a major heart problem. I was three handicap and my irons were Mizuno MP60. I gave them away because I thought my golfing days were over. But thanks to the genius of a heart surgeon in Cambridge I survived and am now starting to play golf again. So thank you for featuring those gorgeous irons. It takes me back to such happy times, and yes for sure I will be trying to win them when the time comes.
Every new video that you drop that references these irons has me coming back to watch this again. This is such an unreal deal and those things are gorgeous!
A range session with the MP60 3i separates the wheat from the chaff. I bought these brand new when I finished my studies and got fitted with s300 shafts. Recently had them checked for loft and lie.
Awesome deal... I purchased MP 58 3-pw, s300 for $250.00 Canadian. You are correct the 3 irons stay below the wind.
I used to shoot around 100-120 with Taylormade burner 2.0 and I flushed my 7-iron about 180 yds. I found MP-60 set for $90 on ebay and I thought it was a pretty good deal so I bought it as "training tools" for the winter. My score drastically improved to around the 80 because I was trying to find the middle with this iron. Great clubs.
I think you should now do a budget series for a high handy caped player/ beginner and maybe what you think would be a great starter set for someone starting out, keep up the good work it's nice seeing a local guy going far
I got my Mizuno mp-53's second hand. Yes I had to have the grips replaced, but the sound and feel from my clubs is the best I have ever had.
Bouncing between 7 and 9 handicap, these clubs were right in my wheelhouse. Your upcoming putter session is my next focus.
I’m the proud owner of a set of mp60’s including a 2 iron! Had them for 15 years. Despite always been around 16 hcap I love them, forgiving enough although they do encourage me to focus on a decent strike. Whoever ends up with these should be chuffed to bits.
I picked up a similar set of mp-62 irons, I was a mb player since junior but being a once a week golfer i needed something a "little" easier to hit, love them.
Keep up the long drive mate your smashing it
There is no way you got those MP60 irons for 80 euros. Would love those clubs in my bag. Love the videos, keep up the good content. Do a video with Hickory golf clubs and see how you perform with them.
Love your videos and style of reviews! Mp-60 has always been my dream club since they came ours definitely one of the most beautiful irons ever made!
I recently got a set of Mizuno MX25 irons for less than $200. I had the same response when I finally hit them. Amazing clubs, I'm sure the MP 60s are as much fun to hit. Definitely an amazing deal.
Recently got back into golf, these videos are really interesting. I'd like to see what golfers got in their bags, have them pick a favourite among their clubs. Would be really interesting aswell.
Just interview some random golfers.
Keep up the good work.
Bought a like new trade in set of these for 70 dollars(4-p) and i love em!The feeling of a pure shot with these is amazing!Using callaway supersoft.
The mp 60s are a great golf club. Me and my dad play mizuno. He has jpx 919 tour and I have the mp 15s but we have a set of mp60s in the attic and my dad still loves them.
Love this find! Only thing I don’t like is the fact that it wasn’t me that found them!! Great content!
I love the idea of you doing the high handicap bag... or a bag for a starter. I think its important to show people that buying a set to start this amazing game can be affordable.
Great find, jeeze man you are a beast at this. I got Ping Anser iron set for $115 which feel was a huge steal. Good job and info on this type or bargain hunting. I think hybrids are underrated even though everyone thinks 3 iron, 4 iron have more control. Hybrid need to be reviewed.
Ive heard nothing but good things about Mizuno irons, would love to test them out. Another course vlog would be fantastic to see, keep up the great work Simon!
I know Mizuno are a Japanese company but their European custom equipment is assembled at Mizuno’s Cumbernauld Facility in Scotland, a new town about 15-20 miles outside of Glasgow.
Managed to pick up a virtually new set of MP62’s for £75 the other day. Can’t wait to try them 😊
This is a great video. I just picked up a value set of ping s56 3-pw today that were in my specs for 139 us dollars! I was hitting them pure in the outside hitting range and grabbed up that bargin!
Great video. We have friends that say they would take up golf but it’s too expensive. Your videos are a great example of how to get top notch equipment and a great price. I’m definitely subscribing and hopefully winning these irons!!
This is a great series! love the idea of filling out bags for under a certain price. It is fun to do!
I just got a set of 21 year old clubs with original shiny grips. Just get the electric sander on them then scrub up hot water and soap. Perfect, soft ans sticky now. Cost = nil.
Added the 4-6 to my MP32 set this year and I love them. Like butter.
Amazing video. I would love to see a generational video, something that compares clubs from 20 years ago to now.
absolutely love these irons. had a set a few years back before i went to college and had to sell them to make some money. would love another set
Just got a mint condition full set 4-W at a thrift store for $15. Great set that play wonderful.
Would love to have these clubs. Have had the same irons for over 10 years and need some new irons. These clubs would help me loads if I could have them. Thanks, great video Simon
Wow! How is it possible that those irons were manufactured over 12 years ago? They look like they’ve been sitting in someone’s closet. They look brand new. Beautiful!
Great video! Thanks for all the awesome content. Had a set of these when I was starting out and sold them because I felt that I needed something more forgiving. Since then I’ve lowered my handicap and worked a lot on my ball striking and now wish I would have never let them go.
Great video. Clubs are way too expensive these days. It was about time someone did something for the breadline golfers among us.
Loving the reviews. I managed to pick up a set of MP30s on eBay for £50. They are so good I will only be buying mizuno irons in future.
Great to see a channel that is not all about spending big bucks keep it up 👍
Love this series. Not exactly budget, but I play an older set of Ping ISI Nickel irons and a Ping Zing 2 putter.
Absolute awesome deal 80 pound in mint condition fantastic looking set of,
I like to see you do a video on bargain wedges and the bounce factor for mid to high handicapper
Hey Simon, You talk about putting a bag of clubs together for a high handicapper versus a low handicapper. I'd love to see a video on the benefits/limitations of those clubs i.e. what would Rory lose by playing a set of game improvement irons over a blade and what would I, as a mid-high handicapper, lose/gain by switching to a blade/low handicapper set of clubs.Thanks for the vid. Cheers.
Brilliant video. I played the best I ever have with T.T. dynamic gold R 300 shafts in a set of Wilson staff tour blades. Some years ago now mind you. Miss hit a 3 iron in winter and that rattled your knuckles. Focused my attention on the sweet spot for while. Would love the Mizunos.
I’d love these. These were the first set of irons I bought myself after I became a full member. I’d love to see something on bargain tech that can improve your game. Rangefinder, gps, launch monitor etc... best value for money and game improvement.
Working my way down to single figure handicap, this is a bloody good set at that price
I liked this video Simon. You made several good points when buying used irons. I just subscribed to your channel as my interest is golf clubs in general. Grips and lie angles are definitely more important than shaft flex. I bet most of your subscribers would do fine with an R300 shaft. Thanks from New York State USA.
What a bargain. I have MX200's and now game MP59's and you really can't compare the feel. I'd buy those at that price just to mess about with. Mint.
I know what you mean by small head focusing you. I was at Witney Lakes driving range earlier, they have some gash clubs kicking about, I had a hit of a bladed 3 iron about 20 years old, buttoned it 4 shots in a row! Hit it better than my 5i AP2s 😣
So yes I'd love to have a go at these!
Really like this concept. Love the Mizuno irons. Not a single handicap yet but hé, it gives me an other challenge! Next up....bargain balls.
Awesome work, I just brought the older Mizunos but don’t regret it what so ever
Love this video mate, you should try a cheap ball or refurbished ball too see what the spin and distances are like and if it’s worth buying new golf balls 👍🏼 plus, my 4 iron snapped the other day so looking for a new set 👏🏼 keep the quality videos coming 👌🏼
Great deal! My younger brother played these before he passed away from the covid shot last year. Enjoy! Or I'll take em! Ian
Those Mizuno MP60 look beautiful, but would look even better in my bag! I'd want to see what your favorite bargain putter is in the next bargain review. Thanks for the great video!
Dynamic Gold R300 shafts are no slouch. That’s a great set of clubs that you have to hit on the screws.
That’s a great deal mate, I’m really enjoying your content and would like to see a review on maybe some cheap woods that work well for low handicappers like myself.
Those MP60s are GORGEOUS! Hell no you didn't get ripped! I play off a 7 with 30 year old Pings, so I believe I could handle those. Bit of a budget golfer myself! But not by choice ;)
I reckon you could probably make a thrift store golf video, no? I see sets out at thrift shops for under 10 bucks! Build a high handicap thrift store set, that'd be a challenge.
Wow what a price. Unbelievable.as a young golfer with limited funds I have to use Dunlop clubs and would really love to see a comparison of a full set to a good set
Another great video those are great looking irons can't believe how good of shape they are in.
Great video SAS. 100% agree for low handicappers. I had these when I was off around 12 and just couldn’t get on with them as you well know now I’m down to 6 I would love to have these back in the bag 🤞🏻£80!! Bargain!!
Wedges next please
Awesome content! Such a different concept, loving it from Aus! 👍 keen to see the high handicap bag 🇦🇺
I used to play a set of MP60 loved them. But would like to see a bargain review of driving irons/ utility irons. Good video
Love my Mizuno JPX800HD irons, but just feel so huge behind the ball nowadays, can't wait to upgrade 👍
That club is 🔥mate
2004 and still looks like that shows the quality
Great content btw ✌️
Those Mizunos look phenomenal. Would be great to see a female beginner set and what (if any) considerations need to be given.
Great video showing how older irons are still very reliable. Maybe a video of your favorite training aids or drills you use to stay sharp.
I love this set!!! When I was looking for new irons these were also in the equation. We also had a pretty sick deal. Mp-30 blades 1 - pw, S300 shaft they feel amazing. We got them for 250 from an old tour pro
