700 bucks, Juz now went to the range , perform very badly, really frustrated.

Sometimes it takes a while to get used to the iron especially when you changed from a game improvement set of irons to a players iron.

Maybe all it requires is a little "burn in" period.

Just my 2 cents

I also hope so,really very worry .

Try with a smooth swing and follow through. Do rush or attempt to hit hard at the ball to try to gain distance as it is unforgiving if you do. I had the same problem when I used my MP52 for the first time. You will really enjoy this very nice set of irons once you have master it.

ok,will not give up,try again on thursday nite

Zincman, congratulations on your new irons, it will take you some time to get accustomed to your new acquisition. As mentioned by popiahc, you're switching from an easier to play game improvement iron to more of a player's iron, meaning you now need to have a more precise and sound swing. The good news is, the MP52 will now force you to have a better swing and make more precise contact. In time, you will be rewarded with better enjoyment of this game we all love. You made the right choice with the MP52, it's a good compromise between forgiveness and playability. Any other of the MP series irons you mentioned earlier would be even harder to play.

To help you understand a little better why one is easier to play than the other,

The Slingshot has a lower centre of gravity for an easier launch of the ball. The deeper cavity and extreme perimeter weighting provides for a higher MOI and expanded sweet spot. The wider sole helps the iron to glide through the turf rather than dig in. The Slingshot is easy to use but more one dimensional in the variety of shots you can play, not an issue for beginners and those who just want to get the ball up in the air and only worry about hitting the ball straight.

The MP52 is also forgiving iron compared to a full blade but not as much as the extremely forgiving Slingshot. The MP52's design assumes you have a more consistent swing and are moving on to the next level of the game, shotmaking. It has a comparatively higher centre of gravity so it is harder to launch the ball; players with better swings already launch the ball high enough, preferring a lower ball flight. The cavity is not as deep and perimeter weighting is moderate, thus a lower MOI and smaller sweet spot; the upside is that it's easier to work the ball high or low and left or right at will. The narrower sole digs into the turf more and is less forgiving to an inconsistent angle of attack, leading to more duffed shots; yet this makes the iron more precise and versatile from a variety of lies.

Hope I've helped you understand the design differences and given you reason enough to keep at it with the MP52s. Patience and practice will reward you soon enough.

Thanks alot Bro Birdman for your kind explanation and encouragement . Now i understand already, will try to improve.

Bro, no worries.. With more practices, u will be able to laurch a good ball..

yesterday went range, iron 8 reaches 120 metres only at least better than the 1st day i got my 52s, will keep on practice

bro,,,,,first of all it has to start with the mind.....you must believe that its a good choice and shelter it fm all other negative tots

when I first got mine, I too had doubts....coz my ability is very limited to almost non-existent......nowadays, I am sure its nothing to do with the club...

Zincman,

I experienced a similar transition going from GI to semi-blades....you may also want to check out my thread where DGMan gives a nice explanation of MOI...

Luckily you never take the MP32 ... the penalty of bad shots are worse ... but still... MP32 is a damn sexy irons
