Drive, Chip, Putt - Everything About Golf

Since I recently tested the Nike Sumo driver I figured that I should give the other square driver on the market a try. It didn’t take me too long to make my decision about this club. I thought that compared to the Nike Sumo this was a much better club. I hit about 10 to 15 balls with it and just about every one went dead straight. I was also able to work the ball a little bit when I tried to. I also like the way this club sets up to the ball much better than I did with the Sumo. It seems that the square shape is a bit less bothersome at address. One of my main complaints about the Sumo was the sound that it produced at impact, this club sounds just like you would expect it to, like a golf club and not like an aluminum baseball bat. The only real drawback about this club is the expensive price tag. But on a scale based on performance I would rate it a 4.5/5.

After reading about this club I figured I might as well give it a try. After hitting about three balls I had already made my decision on the club.

I would never ever buy this club, I will even go as far to say that if someone gave it to me I would tell them to return it and get their money back. I hated this club. The sound that it produces is ungodly. I know that having the weight distributed around the outside of the club will give it more forgiveness, but why make the club look like a box on a stick?

It does however seem very forgiving, just like Nike says, and because of that you can forget about working the ball off the tee with this club. If you are a lower handicapper this club is not for you. If you are looking for a club that will allow you to hit the ball straight no matter how bad your swing is or where you hit the ball on the club face then this club is for you.

After buying a set of Mizuno MP 32 irons I decided that I might as well give their new wedges a try. I figured I was in need of new wedges since it has been sometime since I have purchased a new set, so why not try these. I went out to the local pro shop and took out a few different lofts and bounce angles. I eventually decided to get a 52 with 7 degrees of bounce, a 56 with 10 degrees of bounce, and a 60 with 9 degrees of bounce.

This club comes in a chrome finish as well as a black nickel finish. The black nickel finish is pretty cool but they didn’t have all the wedges in stock with it so I settled on the chrome.

These wedges are by far the best wedge I have ever hit. The feel that they have is consistent with all the Mizuno grain flow forged clubs. Very soft and tons of feedback. I think that the thing that I was most impressed with was the fact that I was stopping shots on the ground of an indoor driving range. Keep in mind that under the green rug at this place is a slab of concrete, I can only image what they will do when they hit a real green. Great great club would recommend to anyone. You can buy these wedges below from eBay if you’re looking for a good deal.

Recently I purchased a set of Mizuno MP 32’s from eBay. After trying out just about every player’s iron I could find I made the choice to get these. The Mizuno MP 32’s are a blade style iron in Mizuno’s cut muscle line of irons. They offer more forgiveness than a true blade iron does which is very nice for those mis-hits. When trying these out it didn’t take me to long to figure out that these were the clubs for me. I just wish I would have tried these first because it would have saved me the time of trying all the others. The feel at contact with these clubs is great. You know when you hit a great shot and you also know when you hit a bad shot just from the feeling you get. These clubs allow you to easily work the ball left or right. They also have pin point accuracy, which is a must for any golfer. I would highly recommend these for anyone who is a low handicapper. A++ buy. If you’d like to purchases these, you can get them on eBay too. Have a look at the eBay widget below to see one of the latest auctions.
