Mizuno Golf Irons-The Players Choice?
Mizuno golf irons have long been the choice of many top players..before they sign multi million dollar endorsement deals with various other manufacturers.

But it is surely significant that when players are not bound by contract to play a particular brand, their weapon of choice is the mizuno iron.Tiger Woods used mizuno golf irons all through college and before he turned professional. Nick Faldo used mizuno golf irons to shoot a remarkable round of golf to score 18 straight pars to win the British Open.
The vast majority of mizuno golf irons are forged.What does this mean?
Most golf irons are cast..this means that the clubs are made from a stainless steel alloy and made by pouring melted steel into a mould.
A forged club is made from one piece of metal by hammering and shaping heated metal into shape. Mizuno generally use mild carbon steel. This process gives a club greater consistency and performance.But it is more expensive than the more common casting method which can lead to more inconsistent performance.
Why? Because when the metal is poured into the mould, it always traps tiny bubbles inside the metal structure which can make the face inconsistent and in extreme cases leads to cracking and breaking.
Another consequence of air being trapped in the head is the different sound that a cast club will make versus a forged club.The air that is trapped in a cast club can absorb the sound of the ball leaving the club..which means that the better golfer does not get the same feedback from the strike as with a forged club.
Indeed many say that the sound of the cast club is a dull, dead sound.Which is not what the ambitious golfer wants when he is trying to hone his game.
For many years now, mizuno golf irons have been the player’s choice..the coinisseur’s choice.That is until they sign the massive endorsement deal and sell out.
And who can blame them you might say?
Well you don’t have to..and if you really love the sound of a well struck iron shot and the feel which a forged iron from Mizuno can give you then you owe it to yourself to check out the mizuno golf irons.
MP 68
The Mizuno MP 68 is a blade which follows a long and illustrious history of blade making by Mizuno.
The MP 68 has a scalloped muscle back and a short hosel which combined with the lower centre of gravity leads to a lower, penetrating wind cheating shot.
The design of these irons has evolved from the famous MP 33 irons but the offset and head shape of the MP 68 gives it a big advantage over it’s illustrious predecessor.
