I bought 2 Mizuno demo heads to see which one I like, the MP18 6iron has 28deg with reg flex steel shaft and I bought a 919 Hot metal 7iron head only. Lucky the adapter fits both heads and I’ve decided the hot metal is much better feel distance and dispersion in fact I hit 3 shots in a row within 3metres of each other. I’d like to buy some adapters if you can suggest where as Mizuno NZ wouldn’t tell me anything, I’ve searched eBay and google but no luck. I did see 3 demo heads with 3adapters but I don’t want 3 6iron heads. Would appreciate your advice, cheers Colin.. 👍

I have no guidance for you on this one. Possibly contact Mizuno in the U.S. to see if they may have some, but other than that, since you have already looked on the internet, I have no idea. I’ll think about it, but not sure I can come up with anything. Maybe someone else will see your post and can help.

Mizuno said only a Mizuno trained fitter would be helped, I might try removing the adapter in the MP18 head as I’m not going to use it so if damaged no big deal. Can I ask plz what does using a 6 iron shaft in the 7iron head do to the Lie angle?

Britt Lindsey commented July 26, 2023

A #6 iron shaft in a #7 iron head, if you don’t adjust the trim, will make the shaft play a little more flexible due to the head weight being heavier on the #7 iron. the lie angle of the # should be 1/2 to 1 deg. more upright to begin with, so if you keep the length of the 6 iron, you could flatten the lie by 1/2 to 1 degree IF you wanted it to be the same as the #6 iron.
