Another example of when Trevor should learn to STFU.
Another example of mixed messages when promoting 'younger and faster'.

I got fit for Mizuno's last season easily the best set of irons I have ever owned as I am shooting the odd round back in the mid-high 70's so I'm pretty happy.

Which series did you try? I had to end up going with a combo set of MP-5 for the 8-9-P 'scoring' irons and the MP25's for the longer irons in 5-6-7. No offset really on the MP5's but there is a bit of offset on the MP25's which I actually need for the longer shots…but I do agree the offset can throw a guy off if one is not used to it.

Did you go through the fitting process with Mizuno for shaft matching as well? If you are hooking every shot you may need reg.flex shafts. Sounds like you may have tried the JPX series and really if you are a good ball striker the MP5s are the way to go. My proximity to the pin has increased dramatically with the MP5's for the 8-9-P clubs.

They are the JPX model, beautiful clubs and they go so far, just gotta get used to the off-set. I normally play Srixon 765's.

Trevor said he expects the twins to get 50 pts and they are in the best shape ever. Still hanging on to old dreams Trev?

From what i've seen and read about him, thats the part of his game that needs/needed the most work, if he can add some jump to his first 3 steps + that shot of his, he's gonna be deadly. We really haven't had a shooter like him in our lineup for a long time...

So this mornings big news on Twitter is hurricane harvey, trump has the lowest approval rating of any president in history and the fight.....nothing on Vanek though?
- LeftCoaster

But yet over 96% of Trump voters polled said they would vote for him again…and let's not forget Obama's approval rating was well below 40% as well at one time.

I want Jagr…not Vanek.

They should listen to what Sundin said recently, something to the tune of...

"enjoy life it's not all about hockey"

True. I am having similar issues with my MP25's as they have offset as opposed to the MP5s. 5 iron is giving me the most trouble but I am getting it dialled in. I tried the JPX series at demo days and they are outstanding irons and very long to be sure.

I think the Twins will hang around 50 pts barring injury…but that doesn't really change much for this club. Now if the Twins were back to being 85-90 point guys that would change much…but that aint happening.

To be given that many opportunities with PP and Ozone starts 50 pts is very mediocre

I agree but I do think 50 pts is obtainable for them with proper TOI. Only thing is Green should be experimenting with a different PP1 which would definitely limit Sedins point production.

I'm hoping TG isn't WD in that he will make changes to the PP if it's not working instead watching it fail over and over again.

I find it a bit funny that. TL said "younger and faster", at the same time said the kids wont be handed spots. JB and TL are making sure the kids arent handed spots. Yet the freak out over a vet that could take a spot from a younger player.

They signed 4 UFA's to fill those gaps. Signing Vanek would go against their 'younger & faster' mantra which would be a continuation of their horrendous PR messages of everyone saying something different or contrary.
The mixed messages are infuriating.
