re: Rory is playing cavity back irons now which begs the question. Why use blades?

Miura Baby Blades or Ping Blueprint, the smaller the better

That's fair. Look if I was playing professionally and had access to all of these clubs and a fitter at all times, I'd probably be more willing to try "player cavity backs". I just don't play enough to make a switch. When I play, I want something familiar, even if it's a blade.
And in response to another post, I can attest Jkilroy has more than enough speed to play an MP33 jf he wants to play them. Number 1 they are clubs from 2002 with an intentionally lower center of gravity (designed for lower launch). Number 2) Nugget made an assumption off a one off swing that JK might have very well been swinging at 70% (another thing that results in lower launch and land angle)

LOwer CG would produce higher launch and spin. MP33's probably play off a 47* PW so weaker loftes would create higher ball flights. Shaft choice can determine ball flight as well. X100 have a Low ball flight as does C-Taper 130X.

These have DG S200s in them.
Took them back to the sim today and had a decent session. According to trackman I don’t have any issues sticking greens with 7 through P. The pic in my earlier post was a 7 iron.
I’ll probably take them out to the course a time or two but I don’t currently plan for these to be my gamers. They will be a practice tool most likely.
Stock PW for MP33s is 48 degrees.

Ball flight only matters if you don't have appropriate spin. High ball flight in windy conditions without the ability to lower it sux. Mid to low ball flight that i skip and checks is more desirable to me. It is a luxury to be able to hit high soaring shots into very firm green though.
