Where it wins
- Feel89
- Looks88
- Sound87
Watch
Rated highest for feel and looks; its softest dimension is workability.
You have a strong, arcing stroke and want a premium milled Anser blade with the renowned Mizuno feel and adjustable weighting.
You have a straight stroke, want mallet-level forgiveness, or maximum MOI — a face-balanced mallet or wide blade suits you better.
Pros
- The renowned Mizuno soft-yet-solid feel from forged, deeply milled 1025 carbon steel
- A classic Anser blade with an included adjustable weight kit
- A refined, classic shape in satin and ION finishes
Cons
- Modest forgiveness — bigger misses won't reach the hole
- A strong-arc toe hang won't suit a straight stroke
- A classic blade with limited MOI
By dimension

Distance
StrongDependable — a deeply milled 1025 carbon-steel face rolls the ball smoothly for consistent, reliable distance control.
Workability
SolidVery workable — a mid-slant neck with maximum toe hang around 5:30, ideal for a strong, exaggerated arc stroke.
Feel
ExcellentA superb soft-yet-solid feel — forged 1025 carbon steel, deeply milled, delivers the renowned Mizuno softness at impact.
Sound
ExcellentA soft yet solid note at impact — the deep-milled forged face gives a pleasing, muted sound without harshness.
Looks at address
ExcellentA clean, boxy Anser blade with a square back — a classic, refined shape, offered in satin and ION finishes.
