Super Mizuno MX 1000 Review

The Mizuno MX 1000 are by far the most player-friendly irons ever produced by Mizuno, which has described them as ‘like cheating’ in terms of the levels of forgiveness and playability they offer.



These discount golf clubs are stronger lofted than many, but not as strongly lofted as some. I give Mizuno credit for keeping the Pitching Wedge at 44*, which, even though a full club stronger than the traditional 48* of days gone by, it is not as strong as the 42 and 43* lofts I'm seeing on many others. The trick to the distance on these is the technology of razor thin maraging steel faces attached to hollow Stainless Steel Body Frames.

There is little loss of distance or height from slight miss-hits and i found it was hard to hit a bad one off the deck. Short irons lacked a little precision, as you might expect, but the head profile inspired confidence throughout the set and will definitely appeal to those players who seek distance and forgiveness in a more compact head shape.

The MX-1000 takes distance and forgiveness as far as they can without the head size becoming offensive to the eye. The hollow body and hot metal face pushes the boundaries of R&A and USGA limits to expand the sweet spot across the face. The high launch also allows each club to have a stronger loft promoting increased distance without compromising on shot height.

Overall, these are the best "Super Game Improvement" irons to hit the market this year. The Mizuno MX-1000 irons are aimed at golfers looking for extreme levels of distance and forgiveness with a high launch angle.
Now I'm not saying you can go out there pin-seeking from 200 yards with these chunksters, swat the ball 10 yards past the hole, and have it do the magic backwards dance and back it into the cup--BUT---What I am saying, is that you can go for the middle of the green from that distance, and the ball will have a better chance of sticking.
