Blades are the only true game improvement clubs.
Anyone tried Mizuno's MP-37? I'm using them at the moment and lovin' it. How do you think it compares to MP-32?
Does anyone know where I can find a set of blades with zero offset through the whole set?
Thanks

Miura - BEST by far.

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.
