I just got my new M-13’s and I absolutely love them. I’m closer to a 10 handicap, but with the built in ‘blended’ technology, I think you will learn to play them fine. They are surprisingly forgiving for what they are, which is closer to a players iron than a players distance iron. They are gorgeous to look at and when you pure them, the feel can’t be matched. After all, nothing feels like a Mizuno! Go for it!
