Irons test results: Mizuno MP-15 irons review

GOLD MEDAL WINNER

First impressions: These irons simple ooze style. The look and finish is as pure as they come and the compact head will delight the better player.

Despite being sleek they still look like they have a bit of muscle to aid forgiveness.

What they say: Compact with clean lines, designed to enhance both feel and workability. 

Forged directly inside the 1025E steel framework is a re-engineered Titanium Muscle insert, which maintains thickness behind impact for solid feel, while allowing weight to be shifted to the perimeter to provide “full cavity” forgiveness.

A reworked steel framework also ensures that the body and insert work as one to maintain solidity at impact.
 
The Ti insert is engineered to create off-centre stability rather than launch forgiveness, trajectory is comparable to Mizuno’s more traditional tour irons.

NCG Verdict:  They say that nothing feels like a Mizuno but for me it’s the sound (the two elements being closely linked) that sets the MP-15s apart. 

No other iron is as pure an experience to hit, and no other iron offered me more consistency in terms of launch monitor numbers. 

Put simply, you get out exactly what you put in. To me, that’s as much as you can ask for. 

The top line on the longer clubs is a little intimidating compared to what I’m used to looking at but apart from that, they’re

close to perfect. 

HOT: They are not – instead they offer true distances you can rely on

NOT: Some might find them intimidating at address
