I Like Show Tunes!
I’m sorry if this has been asked before – I did a quick search and couldn’t find anything. (Except comparison between cast and forged.)
I’m looking to purchase some new irons in the spring. I really love the Mizuno MX 200 or MX 300. (Still torn between the two.) I just so happen to browse the used club section at my local golf shop, and noticed some forged irons they had for sale. (Mizuno, Titleist, etc.) Upon inspection, I noticed that all of the irons had some pretty good marks on the sole of the club. Some, more severe than others. Before taking lessons and actually learning to hit the ball, I moved a LOT of earth with my Taylor Made RAC OS irons. It’s hard to say what all I hit when hitting an inch below the ground with those irons. I know they’re cast, but they don’t have any marks like that. I’m no metal expert, but is this normal? Like the metal is soft? I’d hate to spend $800 on irons only to have them looked all hacked up.
Thanks for any input you have!
