+TourSpecGolfer Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Introducing The MP-HOKKAIDO Irons. 1 of 5 sets produced designed for the softer conditions of Japan's Hokkaido region. This set of irons is optimal for the better player, it is based off of the MP-60 iron yet has a more squared toe, less offset, and the sole has a cut away that allows better players to make cleaner contact with the ball. This is a very drastic grind for Mizuno to produce, They are not willing to do this in the custom dept " I asked " which makes these a truly rare set. I will be posting better pics this week and also compare it to the current MP-60 model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawika5150 Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Is it wrong for guys to be erotically stimulated when seeing these beauties? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Is it wrong for guys to be erotically stimulated when seeing these beauties? lol i know what you mean. btw got my epon woods today and im sleeping with em tonite. jokes aside these mizuno irons take the cake. they are so simple yet exude a certain exclusivety. i guess that 1/5 does that to a set of clubs.

reggie Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Wow!!! That is one good looking iron set. I wonder and hope that Epon can produce something similar. If that were the case, I would finally retire my T-Zoid ProII. TourspecGolfer, is an Epon iron set exactly like this somewhere down the horizon?

+TourSpecGolfer Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 You guys are making me want to keep them for myself! Please dont do this! Its 2 grand shipped for anyone crazy enough to slap them against dirt. All 5 have been sold out, I was only able to purchase this 1 set. Im pretty sure you will never see pic's of another set anywhere or ever come across info or another for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclekent Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 I am completely impressed with this sole design, unfortunatley I am a picker off hard turf and not a digger playing soft fairways. even said, this club has a beautiful design. Chris, I think these should be keepers if only 5 sets were made! Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarintr Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 HI Chris, I had never seem sole like this before. How is your feeling to impact? I like feel of MP 67. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blader-X Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 I like that offset, I just wish more club lines were produced this way with much less offset. Too bad they only made five sets!! Nice touch with the outline of Hokkaido on the club. Very classy, IMO. Now here's my editiorial. Come on TourStage!! You guys should be doing customizations and special lines like this!!

+TourSpecGolfer Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 So idrive how do these do against the Epon 301's? If they are not matching up I would love to buy them back from ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbenz Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Wow, they are truly works of art. Funny I saw Hokkaido. I'll be there next month to visit the wife's family. I should show my father in-law, an avid golfer, the pics lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 So idrive how do these do against the Epon 301's?If they are not matching up I would love to buy them back from ya I've played with them twice. I knew I was going to play on a very soft conditions course so I took them out to play. I didn't warm up (hit a range ball) with them. First shot was a 4 iron. Hit it really well and it carried the distance almost perfectly. GREAT feel. I was actually surprised and am very impressed with the irons. Except for a couple of slight scratches on the bottom of the PW they still look new. If I was going to use them as my gamers or a set I would play a lot I would switch out the shafts. They have the S200's stiff flex which I actually like much better than I thought I would... but for me the black golds is what I would put in them. Great set.. I almost wish they weren't so rare so I would be able to get myself to use them more. Still waiting for my custom AF301's.... would love to do a comparison when I do. Right now my J's are working quite nicely, thank you. Not for sale... although I guess I would entertain offers.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
