The MX-25 is not a max game improvement club, but for me (a 15 handicapper) it's solid, fairly easy to hit with really good feel. My first time out with them I had my second best score of the year. Length: maybe a shade shorter than my previous (Callaway) irons, but nothing dramatic. Good, solid irons that look great and set-up well.

I have been playing golf for the past 3 years and seriously for the past year. I started out with Topflite XL2000 - good clubs but it was above my skill level. Then about 2 years ago, I went on to Tayormade RAC HT - a great set to start me off and build confidence. Using these, I went down to about 18 handicap. Then about 6 months ago, I started to feel the need for shaping shots on occasion, which Taylormade RAC's were not designed to do. I switch to my older Topflite XL2000 irons and started to see the benefit of reduced cavity design. This set got me down to about 14 handicap. Upon reading about forged irons versus stamped irons, I started to try various brands - Tayormade, Callaway, Honma, Adams, Titliest... But never found a set that I really liked, until Mizuno. First, if you like to "feel" your shots, then there is nothing like Mizuno. If you've ever hit an iron pure, you know the feeling - that sweet bending of the shaft, the ball compressing against the metal, the sound of the ball slicing through the air. It feels so soft yet controlled. Mizuno gave this "feel" more than any other irons I have tried. The MX-19's were too much of game improvement and did not allow me to shape shots as much. I had to make a choice between MX-25 (cavity backed) and MP-60 (middle of cavity and blade). Both costs about the same but decided to go with MX-25, since I felt that my game was not ready for for the more serious clubs. I got a new set from e-bay for about $550 and have been using them for about 2 weeks. I worked on the range for about 3 days and I played 4 rounds with them. Wow!!! My average score dropped almost immediately to an incredible 8 handicap - highest 82 and lowest 78. The distance seems to have increased about 5 yards off fairways to 10 yards on the tee. But the biggest benefit for me was that "feel". The feel of these clubs instills confidence that you can do almost anything with these clubs. Straight shots are easy swings - producing a slight draw for me. Draws are a little firmer, and fades - man those fades... soft, high, and stops on a dime. I want to keep hitting these clubs 'cause they feel so good when you smash that sweet spot. I have even stopped after 9 holdes on one of the rounds and went to the practice range so I didn't have to wait so long to get that feeling between shots. Addictive? Yes. Mishits are not too bad but you will feel them. These clubs will give you feedback about your swing, so you can start to get better. I am looking forward to a year or two from now, when I will move on to MP-67's (blades) and these Mizuno MX-25'S are helping me get there.Read full review
Have just received a set of used MX25 graphite regular. I have a Mizuno combo steel, stiff shaft set (MX 300/MP58/MP57) and wanted to try something different within Mizuno. Talked many times with golf friends about graphite shaft and most of them prefers steel. Some of them tried graphite and returned immediately to steel. My first shot with this set was a new, delightful experience. I felt much more confident and the reduced weight transmits the idea that no shot will go wrong. I'm not interested if a club can make the ball going 5 or 10 yd further, but in consistency, and so far, this set is a good example of how to play and enjoy the game. I don't try clubs in shops because the environment it totally different. Prefer to use a set for several months and see the result. I think Mizuno irons are the best in terms of feeling and balance. The MX25 is no exception. I recommend it to all golfers, regardless of their handicap.Read full review
After playing the Callaway Big Bertha irons for many years, my game finally got to the point where I wanted to have more control of my shots and be able to work the ball more. As a solid 10 handicapper wanting to stay in single digits, I tried several sets of "game improvement" irons, but found most to be very inconsistent and just down right hard to hit. I was beginning to think maybe I wasn't ready for the next level. That was until I went to a Mizuno Demo Day and spoke with the Mizuno Rep about the MX 25 irons. I've been playing the MX 25 irons for over a month now and to say the least, I am very satisfied and impressed with the quality and performance of these clubs. As a forged club, the irons are very consistent in feel and I can work the ball for shaping shots and controlling distance. The MX 25 irons look great and have a very balanced feel during setup. I have also found the long irons (3-4) are much easier to hit than other game improvement irons. Take it from a guy that spent a lot of money and time trying differnt irons....take the MX 25 irons for a spin.Read full review
Alright, I truly believe these clubs have been overrated on Ebay reviews. Here are some reasons why I don’t like the clubs. If you could hit irons fairly straight, these clubs will make you draw the clubs way too much. You’ll need to either open the club face or change your golf swing (i.e. don’t come from the inside). The feedback you get from the clubs are ok. I admit, a little better than other cavity back clubs that I’ve hit. However, I believe the club head on these irons are just way too big. Yes, I understand that these are for high handicap people, which sort of puts me in that category. The trajectory of the clubs is way too high and on windy days your ball flight will be too hard to control. My advice, move to the MP irons. My swing is not the best, but I’m currently using the Mizuno MP-37’s and the feedback and ball flight are 10 times as good as these clubs. My advice, don’t be scared to transition to any blades as these clubs will teach you how to swing and hit fades or draws. P.S. I’m not trying to knock on these clubs by any means. ,Read full review
