I'm drooling now. Please don't look at me. It's embarrassing. These Mizuno MP-58s are a thing of beauty.
Let me compose myself and explain to you why these clubs are so cool. There's a new trend sweeping the PGA Tour, and that's the move towards cavity back style irons. Up until now, it was believed that if you gave into playing a cavity back iron for forgiveness, you would give up some of your ability to work the ball. With recent research, this is been proven to be inaccurate.
It's the distance between the heel and the toe that is important to workability, not the thickness. The shorter the blade length, the easier it is to control it for draws and fades. It has nothing to do with the back of the club or the thickness.
The Mizuno MP-58 is an improvement on your typical cavity back. Lightweight titanium is centered in the forged club head, pushing the weight outward and thus increasing forgiveness. The big chunk of titanium in the center provides for a more solid ball striking sound.
Although this club is a cavity back, don't be fooled -- it is a players club and designed for low handicappers. If you're looking for a cutting-edge club with forgiveness, workability, and a solid feel -- dive in. Just try not to drool on yourself.
