Mizuno ST200X

Solid for the target player - the draw-biased centre of gravity is set up for even more forgiveness, helping eliminate a miss to the right, and the draw-bias build aids consistency for moderate swing speeds. The lightweight head is less inherently stable than the standard ST200, but the draw helps keep it in play.

Good for moderate speeds, modest in raw carry - the lowest-spinning of the family (~2,200 rpm), with carry around 241 yards but nearly 40 yards of rollout from the low spin and draw, and a lightweight build that helps moderate swingers find speed. Total distance via speed and roll rather than carry.

Limited by the draw bias - around 13 yards of right-to-left movement from the draw-biased head, with a built-in draw. It fights left by design, so it's a slice-corrector rather than a shaping tool.

Lightweight and effortless - it feels noticeably lightweight and effortless when swinging, with the same sharp impact as the family. Pleasant, if less substantial than the heavier standard ST200.

A higher-pitched crack - at impact, like the other ST200 drivers, it produced a higher-pitched, sharp crack, on the sharper side. Confident but the lightweight head reads a touch higher and thinner than the standard ST200.

Clean, even as a draw head - while it's draw-biased, it sets up clean and square at address rather than looking hook-faced, with the same sleek black finish and carbon crown as the family. A premium, distraction-free look, among the best of 2020.
