Enjoyed that... I have heard it said that you cannot tell the difference between forged and cast clubs, but I surely feel something -- even if I cannot describe it exactly. I play Mizuno and previously Bridgestone irons. Both feel great but I think you need to get the shaft just right as well. When it all comes together, and you hit one, two or three shots a round that are just right, those are the moments that make the game sublime.

It is complete nonsense, (the bit about air pinholes) of course, and a brilliant piece of marketing.
They have another ridiculous one where they use a tuning fork on the irons and compare the sound to other brands.
You have to think about how the billets get made in the first place. The holes are already there before the "grain flow forging".

BTW - I play Mizuno irons.

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