zero offset
 

You can check on the ZO Blades from KZG. I don't know if they're zero throughout the set.

12-Piece,

A buddy of mine picked up a set of Miura's mid-summer and they are indeed one sweet looking set. I used a set of MP-29's for the last 4 years (had them re-finished once during that time). After the sweetspot grooves started to wallow out again I decided to move on to the Ping S59 Tour. They're not forged, but have the same great look (compact, thin top-line, minimal offset) as my 29's did. Amazing what a difference the ferrule makes on the look of a Ping.

On a related note, Golf Digest ran a good article with Scotty Cameron in the most recent issue. Regarding putters, he stated that a lot of pro's are going away from the high MOI, large headed putters. He says, "a mis-hit is a mis-hit" and the pro wants to know when he misses a putt whether is was a mis-read or a mis-hit.

Miura is basically golf's version of the Samuria Sword . . . a true piece of functional art based on tradition and honor.

Hooked my set on e-bay. Japanese version. Things of brushed satin steel beauty.

Mishits are just that.

A MUSCLEBACK blade with a stiff steel shaft will give you max feedback vs a graphite cavity back.

The degree to which you wish to feel a crappy shot is up to you but when you are trying to score, use the club that is most forgiving you can find. No probs practicing mechanics with a muscleback but do not beat your scorecard up for the sake of it.

Even talking steel to graphite shafts feel, once you get used to slightly less violent feedback you can still feel it.

Some people need a sledgehammer feel others are happier with seeing the ball flight and a slight twist. Each to their own sense of touch.

Paul,

So good to have you pitching in here. Wish we had more of your time.

I've always wondered about a more forgiving club. I love my MP-14's but they are getting pretty worn. Would I sacrifice any sweet spot feel with a more "forgiving" club. In other words, would I sacrifice working the ball for forgiveness on mishits?

The club's I have now tell no lies and I love them for it. My 2 iron always tells me the ultimate truth.
Sadly, it was just replaced by a forged Hybrid because I couldn't get it to land softly on 220+ par 3's, or long approach shots.

Thanks Mate!

Hi Bagger. Just prepping the BBQ for tomorrows bash:)

Shaping a ball has nothing to do with whether its a blade or a high MOI. Its the Indian using the clubface though impact.

Paul,

What exactly is a muscleback blade?

Are Mizuno's MP-37 considered muscleback?

I thought it's either muscleback or cavity back (or hybrid)...and you can't have a cavity back blade can you?

Thanks!

This link will give you examples of all sorts of clubs from the Ben Hogan line. It will show muscle backs, blades (both muscle back and non muscleback), so-called cut muscles, cavity backs, etc. I hope this is helpful.
