Deep face struggled from the rough. Not overly workable.
What we say...
Just like the JPX drivers the Fairways and Hybrids benefit from a larger confidence inspiring footprint which Mizuno say aids launching it high and long but with the addition of a softer for stopping shots quickly on greens. A newly expanded Shockwave Sole contracts and expands at impact increasing energy transfer to the ball. Extra mass in the sole helps lower the centre of gravity to maintain ball speed even when hit directly off the turf.
A waffle design inside the crown eliminates extra weight which is relocated in the sole to produce a forgiving high flight. Just like the driver the fairways and hybrids will also feature a “Quick Switch” hosel which allows up to a 4 degree adjustment in loft.
Expect to see 15deg, 18deg and 21deg lofted Fairways and 16deg, 19deg, 22deg and 25deg Hybrids instore early in 2016.
