I’m considering tagging out my old nike slingshots for a set of fitted Wishon 560MC’s. Has anyone given these irons a shot? It’s bloody hard to chase down information/reviews on component clubs.

I do. Love them. Shafted with Aerotech steelfibers .

I know, I was going to get you to make them for me! This is Rob, I was around last week. For some reason my forum name was changed a few months back.

Trying to decide between these or just getting my fitting specifications done once I get my new touched up swing under control and going with the “custom fit” Mizuno MP-57’s through Ebay. I’m keen to try those Aerotech shafts though!

Tendril, I had a set for 2 years and they are a very nice club, I had wishon steel series 5 shafts that were a really good match, upgraded to MP60s but both were fitted.
The New model of these will be out soon but they have pic and specs on the wishon site. not sure about the mp57s for head size but the Wishons are slightly larger in the head than the mp 60s, to look at them on their own they look pretty small but next to other forgings they do look a little bigger. I found the set make up I had were a little heavier than the MP 60s but you should be able to get the swing weights matched up, all in all a very good club and not that common, Obviously try get a demo before you go all out.
good luck.
Cheers

My apologies tendril Its the 550 c’s that I was referring to.
I believe the 560MC are even a little larger again. Still I can recommend Wishon heads

The 560’s are the forged cavity – comparable to the MP-57’s. The 550’s are the blades that compare with the Miz MP-60’s – I doubt I’ll be hitting blades for a long time, if ever. Cheers for the feedback though!

Just had the new Wishon 2008 wish list book turn up yesterday. Not had a chance to look closely at the newer heads but they look the usual smart Wishon efforts.

Played a full set of 560’s (3-AW) for a year now and wouldn’t even consider replacing them with any brand name offering. Have played the 550’s (3-5 in C & 6-PW in M) for 12mths previously too but the 560’s are on another level.

Being somewhat of a club wh*re I’ve tried most designs with these being top of the pops for a balance of feel, consistency and damn good looks !!

I shafted with a Wishon Series 5 Steel (mid S-XS flex, spine aligned and MOI matched) and grip with the Wishon SofWrap grips.

All I can say is try ‘em ….. if you have them fitted properly they will be the last set you own for some time !!

Once I get my swing a little more consistant I’m going to head along to Guru and have a set fitted out, I had a look at one of his at a recent short game lesson and they felt great – just need to hit a few on the range and see how they compare. Cheers for that.

Tendril, If your looking at Wishon Heads have a look at the new wedge lines I have just got a 58* CX Micro in platinum and am wrapt the feel and look of the club, as good as any OEM wedge Ive used. have it shafted with a wishon High Fly Wedge shaft, and cant put it down. This company is making some seriously good components.
Cheers

I’ll take a look but I’m still using Cleveland CG10 wedges that I’ve always loved. Going to be hard to take their place.

I was playing the 560MC’s and they’re good stuff. Very forgiving.

I’ve just got the new 555C’s. I think it’s going to be a case of ‘love you long time’.

As expected, less forgiving than the 560MC’s, but so pure out of the slot.

Hey Bencam, did you play at Glenmore a few years back ?

The 560MC’s are a heavily milled forged cavity – much closer to the MX-25’s.
The MP57 is more like the 550c or the newer 555c and the MP60 is the 550m/555m

Hey Bencam, did you play at Glenmore a few years back ?

Umm yes – a few years ago now. Why ?
