Anyone have any experience with these guys? I used Mizuno baseball equipment exclusively for sometime and it was great. Performance, durability, everything was in the products. I've always been interested in Mizuno Golf products but haven't taken the plunge. Anyone care to express their opinions/ideas on Mizuno clubs?

Very well built clubs. Have a set sitting in my Garage and a putter. If you can play there is no better club out there. Unfortunetely I can not play (well I can kind of but not the way you have too to be punished so hard for mishits.

I too am a big fan of Mizuno irons, I am on my second set. I think they are as soft as any forged irons on the market. With a variety of irons, from traditional musclebacks to cavity back you can generally find one that fits your eye, ear, and swing.

Great clubs. They have been among the best irons in golf for a long time and recently Mizuno has worked at making their drivers, fairway woods and wedges much better and IMO they now rival any company in golf.

My limited experience says:

Drivers - Don't do it. Fairway woods and hybrids - ? Wedges - great stuff Blade Irons - feel great, durable, a lifetime of fun, there are better irons out there feelwise - it's not always about the "buttah".

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

Ive talked to some people who were very much disappointed with the quality of their Mizuno irons.

They found that the lofts and swingweights were incorrect for what the specs for those irons said. I loved my Mizunos but if you are going to nitpick, that is definetly something you can find negative to say about Mizuno.

The only mizuno club I ever owned I purchased back in early 90's. It's a 14° driving iron (1 iron) with a bulbous shape. Needles to say I could never hit the thing and I might try to unload it on EBAY.

No offense but this doesn't really add value to the conversation

I am a Mizuno fan too

Have had the following products Aerolite 2 stand bag...... lightest and strongest out there and ive had a few stand bags in recent times and this will outlast them,good design with offset storage areas for the irons to avoid the bag clatter works well Mizuno joggers.... had now for about 6 years and still look great ,like slippers and show no signs of wear...love them too Mizuno blue rage driver 350cc ......had a couple of drivers back ,absolutely long.Will never get back to that distance now getting on in years but a beautiful club ,sold to a friend who is playing socially and he loves it too Mizuno mp 30s ..... beautiful irons that i have hit some awesome shots with and posted some great scores,will not be going anywhere ,will be buried with me Mizuno wedges 51,56and 60 deg.... Great wedges,forged and classic in style absolutely love them With both baseball and golf they have a strong and positive reputation and i am sure you will not regret playing or using Mizuno products Note... I mentioned the joggers because they highlight the very fact that they do produce quality gear no matter what it may be.... a lot of people wouldnt even consider buying their joggers but they should ...

I have played Mizuno right from when I started. By far the best set of irons they have ever produced are the MP32s. Perfect size, beautiful to look at and very forgiving if your having a shit day!! Their woods are very underrated. I have played the MX500 driver and the F50 3 wood fitted with the aldila pink shaft in for nearly four years now. I have not been able to find better clubs to replace them... until i tried the MP600 that is!

In the Bag:
Driver: Mizuno MP600 9.5* Grafalloy Prolaunch Blue 65S
3 Wood: Mizuno F50 15* Aldila NV 65S (Pink)

Hybrid: Mizuno CLK Fli Hi 17* Exsar HS2 Blue Stiff or
2 iron: Nike Pro Combo OS Speedstep Stiff
Irons 3-PW: Nike Pro Combo OS Speedstep Stiff

Lob: Mizuno R Series 58* Black Nickel

I've played mizuno golf clubs most of my life. my first set was mp-14 blades, then I went to callaway irons, then to ping irons then back to mizuno, and I haven't look back since!! I'm currently hitting MP-32 blades and couldn't be happier. Some of the best irons and wedges in the game.

I just purchased a brand new set of MP-T wedges to replace my Clevelands.

That would be a load of utter garbage.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I've played Mizuno irons exclusively but have hit many other sets of clubs on the range that belong to my buddies. There's nothing better than the feel you get with a Mizuno. Go to your local golf shop and look at how many sets of irons are returned and then look to see how many of them are Mizunos. I'll bet there are fewer returned sets of Mizuno irons than any other set. A little anal but take a calculator and figure out the percentages.

they make the best irons by a country mile. wedges and putters are up with the best too, however they are still playing catch up when it comes to woods imo!

I work in a golf shop and get to hit pretty much every new iron that comes out and nothing i have hit have come close to the feel and workability of my 67's.

I cant ever see myself getting a set of irons from now on that arent Mizuno!
your playing off 1.3, so you would be looking probably at the new mp-68's and they look sweet!

I have a Mizuno putter that though somewhat mysterious is enjoyable to use. As my game improves I do intend to eventually try out and probably buy some Mizuno irons but that is a few years down the road.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
