I'm definitely not a good player, I'm alright but I want to get better. The set I'm using right now is a generic brand from some golf shop I bought 7-8 years ago. They're alright but they lack forgiveness and I feel like I'm not getting the distance I should be getting.

I was looking at the Mizuno mx 200, I've been reading reviews and so far they seem right for me. I have to try them out first though. I looked at Taylor Made Burner Irons and I didn't really like them.
Titleist 710 AP2, I like Mizuno's forged blades but I don't know about the cavity backs, I would also hit the new Titleist 710 CB's and the Talory Made R9 irons if you want something forgiving. The titleist irons will make you work for it a bit more, but the outcome is worth it. Whichever you go with, make sure you get fitted. Most places will do this for free or a very small fee, it is well worth waiting a little while for proper clubs instead of just grabbing off the shelf.
