MIZUNO MP-4 and MP-54 Reveal

[dunn]

Looks more like a 69 in video....more so than pics that came out...

which is good as its hard to improve a mb...there is nowhere to go with it, no perimeter weighting....

good sole, good metal and good forging process and thats all you can do....

mizuno definetly does it right

[tbowles411]

The -54s are really nice!

[Golf_LU]

These clubs are about as classy as any club I've ever seen. It is interesting, a lot of people talk about how 'not much more can be done to a blade in order to improve performance'...yet we hear the opposite from Mizuno/Titleist/TM etc... it will be interesting to hear some real world feedback on these bad boys.

[speeder717]

Wow! Are we thinking orders will be taken as of Aug 1st?

[tsecor]

do you get a pair of sunglasses with those?

If you're cool enough to play these, you'll already be wearing sunglasses

[JaxBeachNole]

That video makes me want to go the range at 9PM.

I'll never look at another Mizuno product. Lefty love is gone.

Thanks for the video ....great !! However, did anyone us hear the difference in the couple of shots CHIII hit before being handed the MP4 and the sound of the MP4?? The pre-shots have that traditional mizuno sounds from a solid hit that you know felt like butter but the sound on the MP4 hits sound "clicky".

I'm I hearing things or maybe the sound is more on the "clicky" side. Just a personal preference ....dont care for a clicky sound in my irons. MP-53 player and before that played MP-32s forever (which I think was the best feeling mizuno).

[color=#222222]I agree with you, MizunoJunky. MP53 player... But I still love MP30. [/color]

[color=#222222]I heard Mizuno does offer popular older generation clubs in Japan as "Legends" line. Is that true?[/color]

[ron lefthanded holmes]

thanks for sharing it does sound clicky but im sure people will find out soon enough

[Geohans]

microphone placement and sensitivity.

CHIII says it's the softest Mizuno he's ever hit. Most of feel is sound. He's there, hearing it in person; we aren't.

Note too that he says he'd start a beginner on blades, for the feedback. Maybe now those "blades vs CBs" threads can all just stop.

Probably not.

Probably not. I heard that they wouldnt ship till around Sept 9th. But thats just my guess.

[moskimojo]

Awwww man! The video of Charles III hitting the MP-4 with the club insights & details has been scrubbed!! So sad..

[FatRichard]

Although I really don't want to be that guy rocking mb's who has no business doing so, I may be investing in some mp-4s (I can just say that CH III says it ok). The running bird on the muscle looks fantastic.

[youngwaldo]

Thinking of rocking a set.

[MartinT30]

I talked to my local club fitter. He said they should be getting the 54 and 4 some time in mid to late August. I'm in the NW so not sure if we get them earlier, later or the same time as everyone else.

[Geohans]

Who remembers how the 69s showed up, and when? In 2011.

Also, did no one download the vid? Maybe a discreet upload and foil their marketing nazis?

[dunn]

Howell also said if you were playin EVERY DAY!!!!....lol, that is the kicker

selective memory from some of you I guess

The whole "Mizunos are like butter" thing is so overblown....feel is so subjective, but i have hit X-hot pros and pings which feel a lot better.....my s56's are clicky but i love em and my 712 CB's are what I call sweet cream butter

Anyone know when we're actually going to get some legitimate specs, etc???
[/quote]

Probably after the sales meeting on the 29th.

I was just on the phone with a CSR from Mizuno, he said you should see the heads in the fitting carts by 3rd week of August and they will be available for order in early Sept. I asked about the 54's mostly mainly about the leading edge/sole design changes vs the 53's. He hadn't seen them enough to do a true evaluation but believed they were following the same principal/focus on turf interaction like they did with the 64's.

[BigPete]

For the record that vid will be back up soon.

From MPX on the Miz Forum

[jimpsycho]

It's official. I am ordering the 54's. I am not even looking anywhere else.

Or am I?

probably, but Ive hit a bunch of mizunos and while I know they are great clubs, I think people exaggerate the "feel" description of mizunos to the point of "no mizuno could ever feel anything but butter-like" Its almost a marketing tool at this point.....but the new MP was designed because tour pros didn't like the feels of the last mp's....

I may be in the minority but I didn't buy mizunos because the feel wasn't the best for me..........the 712 CB destroyed the mizunos for feel for me....feel is subjective as I stated, so 9 out of 10 amateurs may like the "feel" of mizuno, but its not represented as such on tour as mizuno has 5 pros that play their line for the most part......but who really cares.....one guys junk is another guys treasure, so whatever works for us is what works

[tpgrrr1]

100% sold on the MP-4 without seeing them in person. They will be my 6th set. 1st MS-9/MP-9, 2nd MP-14, 3rd MP-33, 4th MP-37 and 5th MP-68.
Come on Mizuno, release the MP-4

[rfarrell51]

I was told today at a local shop that demo heads will possibly be in next week. Orders soon after that.

[starsail85]

im interested in what the differences are between the mp4 and the mp69. the 69 are great clubs, but id like to upgrade to something smaller and thinner soled, which Im not sure the MP4 is, although the top edge is thinner

will be interesting to see in person

My guess and its just that is the sole was redesigned, softened/rolled leading edge.
