jaybit Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 Like many people who join this forum and become flooded with all the new possibilities, I am scared of which brands i would like to get for this springs/summer season. My current set up is this: 975D DGX100 TT Titleist PT DGX100 TT Nike forged blades (2-PW) +1/2" DGX100 TT Nike Pro combo 56 degree Cleveland 900 60 degree Mizuno TP Mills Putter I was considering getting this set up for the new season: 2-4 Hiro MI02 4-7 MP 32 black or chrome if possible 8,9 MP 32 or Scratch classic blade PW,56,60 Scratch 3x black I already know im gettting a slighter putter and an r7 and probably a ss07 or t60 3wood. My questions are, as far as the imports go: can i get all these individually, and if so, where should i get them(especially the individual hiro's)? Does anyone know how much they will cost? individually or total(if you have the time) Why are HM irons so much more expensive than other companies like gauge scratch and mizuno? Would there be a better replacement? Can most of these irons be fitted with tour concept shafts or should i stick with x100s to be safe? My ss with irons are probably around 100 -105 in the longer irons. Im 16 and i have had most of this set since 2001(can you see i am a tiger fan). I really dont have the money to become golf hos like some guys. I only just considered buying better equipment since lowering my index from 2.1 to .6. I am also considering getting my PGM. Sorry for giving you guys my life story but id thought id get off on the right foot in this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfather1 Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 I would't recommend combing three different iron sets, each one is designed to work differently. I currently have a set of scratch which I decided based on that they are done by Ishihara so I didn't have to worry about quality, and I got to choose my specs. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the set's you mentioned, I am actually also thinking of going m stamp combo for the new season, but I don't think you should combine different companies. I can't tell you what makes the hiro irons so much more, but they look very nice maybe Chris can comment more on the hiro's. You can get all of the stuff you mentioned from Chris username tourspecgolfer, he runs this site, but I don't know if he is selling indiv.. Hope this helps.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 If your 16 without much money I don't think the Hiro's fit the bill. I think Hiro's are all about the name and prestige, they perform no different than any other high end set, they just have a setup some people cant live without and If your shooting for a Major Drool bag that gets attention go for it. Your shooting some killer scores, with your skills hopefully one day find a sponser, :mizuno: :wink: Hey wasnt their an 18 year and older disclaimer when registering?...j/k :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i have the money because i have been saving for about 4 years for school and golf. I dont make too much because i only work 3 days a week but i probably will have around 3k by June. So mixing companies would be a bad thing like mentioned above? This does damper my excitement but if it wouldnt be recommened then i wont do it. Do you really have all these brands available and if so could by individually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really have all these brands available and if so could by individually. Im selling all the equipment you see on the site, pretty much everything from Japan. By June you may be interested in somthing else, Nothing is wrong with mixing brands, I do it and so does the majority. Brands like Hiro dont sell irons individualy, I know mizuno does no problem Im not so sure about scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O well im done with the hiro idea if i cant get them individually. Who size is larger gauges cavity backs or them mp 27s. BTW if you sell all thats on the site how come the 32s arent on the catalog i thought you hooked up a guy with black 32s. Is it because they wont be available for a while. Man i sound so needy. sorry about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt411 Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 unless i am mistaken, you can get just about any of the mizuno models in 4 different finishes: shiny chrome, satin chrome, shiny black, and flat black. custom stampings are shown in some other posts, just run a search.

hornyjuan Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 The Hiro's are dead sexy and mighty fine irons. Feedback on good shots is awesome and bad shot's aren't too punishing. Overall if your a good ballstriker I think the MI-02's are great players cb's. Interesting fact...I compared my Gauge Design teflon irons to the Hiro's and they are close to dead even in size (so everyone claiming the GD's are game improvement shovels need to see for yourselfs!!). I'll post some picks after I get my Hiro's reshafted and bent to my specs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
