Summary:
I really like the balance and looks of these clubs. If you have a swing flaw it will show up, and you will mis-hit. But that should not discourage you. When you strike them right, they are very accurate. I've tried Mizuno mp 14 and wilson fg 17. But they do not feel any better than these 20th, which do not have as much offset as the others. Also, you will have to hit 1 more club due to the weaker lofts than you may be used to. All in all, I really like these clubs. When stuck well, feel very solid. And that feeling is addictive.

Summary:
If you can, get a set off eBay or Golf exchange. Compare them to your current clubs. Another reviewer "pured" it when he said the smaller sweet spot (about the size of a dime) will IMPROVE your swing. The conventional wisdom of giving you "foregiveness" only makes for a sloopy swing. You want to lower your handicap? Play these for a couple months this year. They will slow your swing down, and force you to make good contact. There is no feeling in golf like hitting a blade on the sweet spot, and these may have the "sweetest" sweet spot of any blade ever made.

Summary:
I am now shooting in the lower 80's upper 70's and am *just* starting to understand how good a set of forged blades are. Especially these muirfields. I found the sand wedge, 2 iron, and even the 1 iron on ebay.

Instead of hitting a club which fits with a bad swing, I have adapted/improved my swing to fit my clubs. The small sweet spot on these is tough to hit (the size of a dime), but when you do its a good 10-20 yards more distance. I now hit my 8 iron 165 yards where it used to be 145-150 yards. I can also draw or fade as needed.

When these finally get worn out, it will be tough to consider any other club. I may have to try the Mizunos, but will probably get more Muirfields.

Summary:
I was acutally buying the clubs for the putter, and after I saw what they were, and took them to the range I found I can move and Stick the ball better then I ever have been able to do before
