The new nike forged cavity backs (cci, cgi?) are getting good reviews as well, but aren't in the bargain range yet...mp 30s are good but I have found that mp 33s (full musclebacks) are easier to hit than these and that isn't a good thing when looking to balance workability with forgiveness like most player cavity types attempt to do...
Yes; very true. I found the Srixons (new I 506) on Click and Save Golf for 5 and change, but I refuse to buy until I've spent an hour or more "getting to know them." To use an analogy I'm used to a tempermental sports car with no cushion, safety, and reliability, and would like to ease into something comfy-- without getting myself into a minivan, so to speak.
