The takeaway

Underrated compact players-distance Mizuno.

They agree

  • +Signature Mizuno feel
  • +Compact with less offset
  • +Height despite strong lofts

The knocks

  • Strong lofts
  • Thick sole, not forged

Buy it ifyou want distance in a neat head

Skip it ifyou want forged feel or weaker lofts

Loved it

this for me is a fantastic iron uh often very much overlooked

The one he keeps calling underrated, same 28 degree power lofts as the Hot Metal in a far more compact players distance shape.

+ the facts · 6 pros · 3 cons
  • +Same strong lofts and power in a compact head
  • +Less offset and a less bulky top line
  • +Plenty of height despite the strong loft
  • Sole is still fairly thick
  • No sand wedge option
  • Not forged

For: Golfers who want game improvement distance but demand a neater, players-distance look.
