3 wins in a row for mizuno


bogeypro

Recommended Posts

Don't really understand mizuno haters, sure its them as a player with their skill, BUT at the end of they day they choose to put trust in that set of irons to make their livelihood. That does speak volumes. There are many forged playerss clubs out there, but IMO Mizzy makes the best ones at the best price too.

 

I'm not reading any Mizuno 'haters'. Just people pointing out that the player has far more to do with it than the clubs. No one is saying 'Mizuno clubs are trash' or 'Mizuno is overhyped' or anything like that. Just because they're skeptics doesn't make them haters.

 

If it's haters you seek, get thee to a PXG thread :-)

Such a strange viewpoint to take on this imo. This argument might hold water if Mizuno was paying players, but they are not. First, i don't think players would be that spiteful or careless with their careers. Second, if not contractually obligated, i don't think you will find one pro who wouldn't put the best performing clubs in the bag if given the choice. Most of these guys chose Mizuno, and that DOES speak volumes. It just does.

 

Players who don’t have a contractual obligation choosing Mizuno irons does speak volumes. They are relying on these clubs for their livelihoods. Simlilar to a special operations soldier using specific tools (guns, knives, etc) when they can have anything they want.

 

I see it another way. The pros don't want to play another OEM for "free" so they play Miz. Probably some butt-hurt. For example, if TM or Callaway or Titliest or x isn't going to pay me, I'm not going to play them. I'll play something else.

TM Stealth 9 degrees, Ventus Blue TR 6x

TM Stealth plus 3 wood 15 degrees, Ventus Blue TR 6x

Go do a deep dive, 10 years at least, and then come up with statistically valid information.

 

No dog in the fight, but to just do a feel good snapshot doesn't mean anything.

 

Let's do a "deep dive", and "peel back the onion" on this, if we can "carve out" some time to do it...., we don't want to "throw under the bus" any other manufactureres.... LOL

Mizuno feel is way overrated. I’ve had 2 sets and they were ok but not otherworldly.

 

Good clubs - yes for sure but a bit romanticized here kind of like the blade lovers thread.

 

imo - of course.

I agree to a certain extent.

 

Over the last couple decades, I didn’t like the looks of mizuno blades other than the 60s, 64, 900T and 18s.

 

The 18s was their best looking, the right size and best feeling out of their line up.

 

Feel is subjective, I would prefer a clicky, crisp feel like the 900T vs a marshmallow softness in the 18s but he ball does what I am intending to do.
