Mizuno Pro S-1

Minimal, as a pure muscleback should be - a pure single-piece forged muscleback blade, unforgiving and demanding of a centred strike, built for the high-performing ball striker, not the masses. Blade-level forgiveness - for elite strikers only.

Control over distance - the traditional lofts (34-degree 7-iron) and blade construction prioritise precise, consistent yardages over length. Modest distance, as expected of a pure muscleback - it isn't the point of the club.

The headline trait - outrageous levels of workability that make it a favourite among elite ball strikers, with a new channel-back design optimising CG through the set for total shot control. Among the most workable irons made.

The best in golf - a syrupy, butter-soft-yet-solid feel from the single-piece Grain Flow Forged HD 1025E mild carbon steel, with a copper underlay refining the vibration for the purest, most satisfying feedback. Mizuno's legendary feel at its peak.

Pure and soft - the copper underlay refines the vibration patterns for a pure, satisfying note, with a dead-soft acoustic from the forged blade. Among the best-sounding irons.

Stunning - a small, clean blade with straighter, more angular shaping than the Pro 241 and progressive, modest offset that reduces toward the scoring clubs. One of the best-looking irons ever made.
