I play blades, older blades at that, because I play can and I play very well with them.
Paper or plastic?
Play the damn clubs that make you want to hit it again.
right on. I guess my question is why someone "should" play blades. I'm not saying anyone shouldn't play blades, I'm just wondering what everyone's thoughts are as to why someone should beyond "because they can" and/or "because they want to."

I came from RSI O/S irons/90gm T-Ultralite shafts to MP 68's with x100 s/stepped x 1 and haven't looked back.
I disagree, there's are plenty who can and should play blades. Those who play them are NOT all ego.
People should play what they want, but the whole Forged is superior thing is comical in this day and age.
What qualifies forged as better?Forged is better than cast, JDM forged is premium...try miura, epon, vega, endo...far better than US OEM (lesser quality)

Disagree. But, what do I know talking to manufacturers.Forged is better than cast, JDM forged is premium...try miura, epon, vega, endo, fourteen etc...far better than US OEM (lesser quality), but cost a lot more $$

But I guess that is the holy grail of my question. I am wanting to play the clubs that can lead to the great improvement in my game. And this plan includes a healthy dose of practice and PGA level golf instructions with video and flightscope analysis.You're welcome to opinion and maybe you should change your name to ironbyron since your swing is flawless. But some of things you are claiming are a bit of stretch or misleading.
A toe side hit, toe side of the sweet spot won't penalize that Mitch. But toe side strikes will. There is huge difference. I played blades for years and I promise you I've seen these misses. I've also gotten the same 'butter 'feel from cast clubs. People that play cast aren't missing anything. It's about scoring and having fun. I rarely hear after rounds chats about how buttery people irons played.
Again people play what they want and if you can pure a blade, great.

So I really was wondering what is the best clubs to get better. Because these are the clubs that I would like to play and or practice with.
And quite honestly as an mid handicapped amateur I don't know if there is a clear cut answer.
But I often turn to the THP'ERS for advice prior to a major golfing purchase because usually, there is someone other there who knows. Who has gone down this road before. Who can show the way.
Because yes I can purchase clubs and sell them on Ebay. But having the THP community show me the way has been not only cheaper. But has really pointed me in the right direction and avoided some of my prior purchase and regrets. A syndrome we can all happily avoid.
And for those that just say go get fitted I can tell you from experience. That to go into a fitted with out having done your home is like buying a car online from a guy named Rip-off Charlie.
So. Thanks to all the THP community both professional and amateurs alike. Your input has improved my game and my enjoyment of golf.
So maybe it's not as simple as play what you like. When you can hear from experts who have been down this road and have the hard knocks to prove it.

Tighter tolerances in some cases. That doesn't mean a us oem can't get the same forging and release it (some do).Aren't most forgings done at the same factories?
What specifically makes forgings supplied to the Japanese market better than the forgings provided to the US market.
