Do Miura irons outperform the rest? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing Miura irons and their performance. WRXer ‘LowAndLeft32’ wants to know if Miura irons are head and shoulders above the rest, kicking off the thread by saying:
“I often see discussion on the feel of Muira’s, especially vs Mizzys. But from a true performance standpoint are Muira’s T the top, worth the price, lead to improvement in ball striking, or lower scores?
It would be great to find a truly great iron that shows that it’s head and shoulders above the rest. Is Muira it? Will these irons stay in the bag for a while? I played many different sets over the last five years, and I haven’t found any irons that differ materially from another.”
And our members have been sharing their thoughts on the matter in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- lefthack: “No. No club is magic. Some play better than others for others. Would my dream Miura set play better than my KZG’s? Doubt it, but they look good. Not $2800 good, but you know. Some folks feel a difference, some folks hit a cast club without issues. Will YOU feel a difference? Only you can answer that one.”
- Nessism: “Miura irons are impeccably crafted and have a somewhat unique feel. They bring pleasure to those that like them but, they won’t lower your score compared to a similar iron.”
- Avidswampthing66: “It’s totally a matter of preference. They (Miura) look AMAZING, and to me, they feel deep and thuddy. If you’re into that, then you’re going to love them. I play the MC-501’s, and I’ve never felt an iron like it…they aren’t soft like Srixon or Mizuno.”
- dongodfrey: “It’s the Porsche vs the Ferrari question; both do the same thing. The CB 501 were amazing, but so were Callaway JDM legacy blacks, probably the best iron feeling wise I’ve ever hit, But many, many, many would disagree. It’s just personal preference, really.”

Modern Classics (Ep. 4): Testing a TaylorMade Burner SuperFast 3-wood

GolfWRX recently launched a new 8-part video series, called “The Modern Classics,” in partnership with 2nd Swing Golf. Throughout this video series, GolfWRX’s Head of Tour Content, Andrew Tursky, tests out 8 legendary used golf clubs that are still being played on Tour today. How do the older, less expensive products compare to modern technologies?
In the first three episodes, Tursky tested out TaylorMade’s Tour Preferred MC 2011 irons, Adams Idea Pro hybrids from 2006, and a TaylorMade Rocketballz RBZ fairway wood.
For episode 4, we highlight the TaylorMade Burner SuperFast fairway woods, which were released to the public in 2010. Although they’re more than a decade old, we spotted one in Richard Bland’s 2022 WITB.
The Burner SuperFast fairway woods are currently available for $76.99 on 2nd Swing’s website.
Check out the video at the top of the page for more on the product, design, and how it stands up in testing against a modern 3-wood.

Best wedge for bad bunker players? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing wedges for poor bunker players. WRXer ‘gdb99’ kicks off the thread saying “I’m not good out of sand. I used to be, 35 years ago. I blade shots over the green. It’s all technique, and I need a lot of practice. I know that,” and reaches out to our members who have been sharing what they feel are the wedges that can help him the most.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- hammergolf: “Ping Eye2 is the best bunker club ever. If you’re blading it you’re not steep enough. Open the face and hit down on the sand. The bounce will stop it from digging too much.”
- flubberlange: “Try a Vokey 60* in a K grind.”
- Fwitz11: “I also struggle with the bunker and have found that an open 60 and hitting just behind the ball is the easiest out I have used. Has helped me a ton with not blading it over the green.”
- lazyjc4: “I’ve hit the best bunker shots of my life with PM Grind wedges. I look like I know what I’m doing almost all of the time.”
