It realy is a preference.Annika played with cavity-backed x-14 for many years and has recently switched to newer Callaway cb.
When you hit a sweet shot with forged blades there is no better feeling. And the feedback is great however mishits are awful. I routinely play with Mizuno M14 ( forged blades) Hogan Apex Plus (forged semi-blades) and Callaway x-14 (offset cavities--Cast).

The blades did help me become a better golfer as their feedback let me know whether I struck the ball well or not. That feeling can be hidden with cavity backs. However during that learning period my iron play suffered. Yes the game-improvement cavity-backs do what they are designed for and create forgiveness

The Mizunos have Rifle Lite 6.0 shafts. The Hogan Aldila graphites and the Callaway Rifle 5.5 shafts. The differnt shafts also create completely unique feel with in each set. Shaft selection is variable one must consider besides just the club head. Each of my sets has its assets and deficits and I enjoy each equally.

Choose wisely and happy golfing
