Going back to the mid 80's into the late 90's Mizuno's MP line in the U.S. was pretty much the 14's and 29's. The 14's had more offset than the 29's and smaller clubheads. (Always thought that was backwards. The 'players' supposedly wanted less offset and smaller clubheads.) The 29's were quite expensive... even for those days, but my were they ever beautiful!!! I carried a set of the 29's for a season and a half. Saw a lot more 14's on tour than 29's. Tiger's Titleist prototypes (681's) and his Nike blades were 'copied' off his 14's.I was wondering when the different mp lines came out. Can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction?

sorry man but thats mostly wrong.the 30's and 60's series go as follows
mp 33 then the
mp 32 then the
mp 37 then the
mp 30 about the same time came the mp 60 then the
mp 67....thats where we are today
33, 32, 37 = blades
30, 60 = cavity back
67 = all on its own....both worlds i guess
Thanks limpalong. That's exactly what I was looking for.
Great link, Jayhawk! I will, however, take exception to a couple of their dates. The 14's were manufactured up until, and may a little after, the 33's were introduced. I would swear they were produced beyond '98. The 33's were produced up until, and past, the introduction of the 32's. In fact, when the 32's were released, the 33's were listed on the website as "classics" and were still available. The link shows a gap between the 33's and the 32's. The link shows the 14's discontinued before the 29's were discontinued. Again, this ol' mind does tricks, but I know the 29's were discontinued some time before the 14's were.
My, what a list! To go back and see some of these in my memory. Just a great line up of excellent clubs from a superb manufacturer that has had a distinct impact on this great game!
