Mizuno is calling the MX-1000 the longest, straightest iron

For starters, Mizuno is calling the Mizuno JPX AD Irons the longest, straightest iron they've ever created. What makes the

MX-1000 so much longer than previous irons? There areMizuno MX-1000 Irons actually multiple design features contributing to

such a claim. First, thanks to their Hot Metal Technology, Mizuno pushed COR to its legal limit. Unfamiliar

with COR?? In a nutshell, it's the Mizuno MP-68 Ironsmeasure of the "rebound" effect a club has (golf balls have COR as

well).

Without drifting too far off-subject, pushing the COR limit is great but as a game improvement iron, another

equally important three letter acronym is MOI, which the Nike VR STR8-FIT TOUR driverhas plenty of. MOI is

optimized by the use of Hollow Technology, which allows the internal weighting to be pushed away from

center, allowing the player to Callaway RAZR X TOUR Ironsget away with less than perfect contact. The Hollow

Technology also allows for the center of gravity to be pushed low and deep, making it easier to launch the

ball high and straight. To help reduce excessive digging, and increase playability from all lies, a wide beveled

sole design with a rolled leading edge and aggressively beveled trailing edge was used.
