Seems like grabbing a Miura Baby Blade 7 iron or an MP-14 off of eBay would do similar things as far as a training aid. Thanks for the review.

I practice with a Wilson Staff blade seven iron.
Sometimes I hit it so good I wish I owend a whole set.

That’s certainly an option. It’s actually how I started playing, though I don’t recommend that route for everyone.

Best,

I wonder if someone would be better just buying a cheap set of vintage blades from ebay. For $140 you could get a set of small unforgiving 50-70 year old blades and train or play with those.

Great Review but it in all honesty I’ll stick with my Tour striker training clubs. For me, I think they work better and have helped get back to hitting more solid strikes.

Kevin,

That’s an excellent point. Anytime you change clubs, you’re likely dealing with a different CG which can feel and perform differently.

Best,

The other thing to mention with regard to not training face angle is that the shorter blade length will want to rotate closed faster than regular irons, so you may end up training a different tendency than what you normally experience with your clubs.
