I spent 4 hours testing various irons to replace my 15+ year old irons. Have played almost my entire life (single-digit handicap) with blades and decided, at 57, that it was time to seek some more distance and a bit more forgiveness for the times I miss the sweet spot. After all this, I decided on these Mizuno 245's and could NOT be more happy! I really wanted to retain the 'blade' look since I believe that's a big part of the performance of any club...and these certainly meet that standard. Also looking for more distance and forgiveness, so I went with the Aerotech "Steelfiber" i95 graphite shafts. Buttery soft but controllable, impeccable feedback of the face, very workable, and I got back the 10 +/- yards I'd lost over the years. The fitters at Golf Galaxy were great and I really got what I needed - recommend them highly!
