dalillama47 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Might take a drive down this road again. I've had the Miura's then sold them but have been intrigued by alot of the Epon and Yamaha comments. I'm a digger and live in the North East in the US. Really liked the Miura's and sold for a set of blades ( Yonex ) which were very good. Just wanting to go back to something with a little forgiveness. Currently have a set of Ping i20's which are very good for my swing ( predominant miss is a toe strike ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoreBeerBetterGolf Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Maybe it is just me, but I can't hit the 501s worth a damn. In my book the 302 is way easier to play particularly for a digger. Well struck shots have similar rewarding feel. The 501 is more bladelike at address with a smaller sole and less offset which appeals to many. The 302 might be the easiest to hit players CB on the market that doesn't give up much workability. There is a fair amount of GI in the 302 for a "player's iron." I think the 2013 Onoff Forged is a real winner too. Hope to have mine from TSG in the next couple weeks.

vanla01 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) I can comment about Epon CB's but I did owned a set of Miura TB's and also have played with the Baby blades. I did get the chance to hit the 501 CB's and to me, they weren't anything special. However, Miura blades feel fantastic, I love the dense feeling at impact and do prefer them over ENDO forged irons. The Miura blades are fun to play with when you are striking your irons pure, if you are having a so so day.... they are definitely not forgiving, you better have your A game or they will punish you. Last year, I decided to go with a more forgiving irons and went with the 2012 Yamaha V forged irons. I would highly recommend them in a heart beat, the V forged irons are very forgiving and easy to hit. I would definitely pick the V forged over the 501 cb's, the V forged has better spin and easier to control your ball flight. The 2012 V forged was so forgiving, I bought the 2013 Yamaha Tours. Have you looked into the 2013 V forged irons?? The new V forged irons have the same forgiveness and playability but looks somewhat like a blade, the best of both worlds IMO.
