Mizuno are well known for making great irons.  But while their grain-flow forged offerings have become industry standard-setters, the woods department has not seen the same kind of broad approval.

Happily, this is where the Mizuno MX700 Driver steps up.  Replacing the MX560, the latest offering features a plasma-welded face which helps increase ball speeds off all parts of the face.  This is thanks to what they are calling Ti9, based on the face that metal, like wood, has a grain which can be orientated either to boost stregnth or limit it.  The grain in the titanium face of the Mizuno MX700 Driver runs vertically from sole to crown, a design that expands the driver’s sweetspot.

Clubhead weighting is designed to help the golfer achieve penetrating drives.  The wide geometry of the head means a low CG and a big sweetspot – leading to impressive launches and low spinning tee shots.

Looks-wise, the guys here at Golfbuyitonline were split.  Steve thought it was a “Bobby Dazzler”, but Jon wasn’t keen on the graphics on the top of the club.  But where our team were in agreement was in the performance of the Mizuno MX700 Driver – it was stunning.  Long, booming drives were very much the order of the day, with dispersion figures also favourable.

This is the best Mizuno driver we’ve seen for a while!
