Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Forgiveness88
- Feel86
- Looks86
Watch
Rated highest for forgiveness and feel; its softest dimension is workability.
You're a low-to-mid handicapper who wants a long-iron replacement — accurate, forgiving, easy to launch and sweet-feeling.
You already spin the ball a lot or want the lowest, most workable flight — a low-spin players' utility fits better.
Pros
- A standout for accuracy and consistency in independent testing
- Very forgiving for a compact head, with a soft Mizuno feel
- An easy, high launch that lands soft — a fine long-iron replacement
Cons
- Higher-spinning — big spinners may fly it too high
- A players-ish compact head, not a game-improvement balloon
- A simple hosel and no movable weight
By dimension
Forgiveness
ExcellentSteadier than its compact size suggests — a full-speed face and flexed toe-and-heel zones keep mishits fast and on line.
Distance
ExcellentSolid, not the longest — strong ball speed off a fast face, but a higher, spinny flight trades some run for a soft landing.
Workability
ModestBuilt for straight, repeatable shots — a neutral head with a basic loft-and-lie sleeve, not one made to bend the ball.
Feel
ExcellentA Mizuno strength — a soft, planted strike, refined and steady rather than lively, a cut above most hybrids.
Sound
ExcellentA quiet, smooth note at impact — clean and refined, muffled more than sharp, matching the soft feel.
Looks at address
ExcellentA compact, clean head with classic Mizuno lines — a tidy, understated shape that a good player will love over the ball.
