Player iron with muscle-back feel and player’s cavity forgiveness
Norcross, Georgia (Sept. 17, 2015) – Mizuno, a leader in iron technology and design, introduces the latest “player” iron, the MP-5, to its award-winning line. The MP-5 delivers the feel of a muscle-back with the forgiveness of a player’s cavity to provide golfers unparalleled long-iron forgiveness and enhanced control in the scoring irons.
Mizuno’s stable of PGA Tour and European Tour players, including Luke Donald, Charles Howell III and Chris Wood, worked with Mizuno golf engineers throughout the R&D process to provide feedback and help shape the ideal players iron. The channel back flow design offers players predictable and reliable ball flight control, which is crucial for shot making. The MP-5s offer feel and precision using high-quality 1025E Pure Select steel and Mizuno’s patented Grain Flow Forging process coupled with H.I.T. (Harmonic Impact Technology).
“Interaction and feedback from our Tour players during the research and development process of the MP irons is crucial and the MP-5’s easily passed the test and seamlessly integrated into their bags,” said Chuck Couch, Vice President of Product Development, Golf Division, Mizuno USA. “The cutting-edge design of the channel back in the MP-5 are true to Mizuno performance heritage and will make the MP-5s a must-have for the low-handicap golfers.”
The MP-5 irons feature the same tour-preferred sole design and head-shape as the MP-64s providing consistent turf interaction for predictable trajectory and an unmatched ability to control the ball off the clubface. The MP-5s strategically places weight toward the toe, for more solid feel, even on off-center shots.
