    todvan, the Wishon 752 tc iron has an MPF of 556 points and is in the Game Improvement Category. The actual vertical CG is .723”. The “C” Dimension is 1.208” and the MOI is 13.609 oz/in2. The CG is located 1/8” rearward of the center of the face.

    Hi,

    I noticed some MPF ratings for Wishon irons in the 2007 listing. However, I am looking for the ratings for the 752 tc iron.

    Are these available somewhere?

    Thanks for the work you put into this – I have a physics degree and have a good idea how much effort goes into this.

    bweaver48, don’t have them yet. I do not trust TaylorMade marketing. They basically say anything they like in their advertising and are probably the worst company in this regard in my opinion. I will check them out when I get them and find out what they mean by the “set is dead” concept.

    Ralph,

    I didn’t find a response to the question regarding the new Taylor Made Burner irons and their MPF. Since they have changed the way they are making the irons based on whether they are the long, mid or short iron wouldn’t that affect the MPF in each category? Is there a general MPF?

    thanks,

    -bill

    Mr. Maltby,

    Have you tested out the Wilson Ci6 and Ci7 irons? I’d like to know how they compare to my current clubs (Ping i5).

    Okey, thanks. I have tested the Callaway X-20 though, and i hit Srixon I-506 better. I’ve tested the most clubs out there. I use the Srixon I-506 now and i’ve been looking for new irons in the same area of clubs (i recently went from Titleist AP2 to the Srixon’s I-506). And when i saw this site and all the MPF facts i was able to see that the Ping S58 was relative easy to use/play compared to other clubs i’ve looked at (Ping S57, Ping i10, Ping i5, Callaway X22 tour and TM Tour Preferred).

    cmayer, with this additional information, i would recommend you get irons in the Ultra Game Improvement area. Although the Ping 58’s are quite high in playability, I would recommend the Raptures which should still be available at a good price and are even higher in playability. A lot depends on what you like to look at, if you have preferences. if not, look at some of the Callaways in Ultra Game Improvement also.

    Okey, thanks for the quick answer. I am a 15 hcp (played for about a year) at the moment if that’s any help. Do you still think the Ping S58 is the right club or will it be to difficult for me?
