Mizuno MX-300 Irons Performance

The Mizuno MX-300 Irons s are long due to their lofts and the flight is very strong and penetrating. I found my best shots flew very much like a blade, soaring to the top of its flight and then parachuting gently down onto the target.A real dream and great for zeroing in on the green.
Off center strikes were punished but not severely. You weren’t strapped across the desk and given a good flogging, just made to empty the trash and given some extra homework. My bad shots flew O.K. and still felt fine although the special feel was gone; these aren’t great strikes after all. I’d say I lost around 10-15% distance which beats a lame dribble up the fairway by a long shot.

Whilst they offer some help on the less than perfect shots they aren’t really for the most casual players or beginners. You do need a bit of experience and ball striking ability to make the most of them. It seemed to me that the niche Mizuno are looking at satisfying with these was perfectly identified.
The long irons naturally have a little more help and I was happy enough with how I hit the 3, 4 & 5 irons. The good ones really stay hit and fly true and high. Lower down the set, the “helpful” nature of the clubs tails off and you’re given a short irons designed for shaping shorts, ideal for finding nasty pin locations or avoiding trouble.

The MX-300 has been designed to provide players with a reduced offset, more compact alternative to the popular MX-200 range, with a club head top line and face size that places the Mizuno MX-300 falls directly between the MP-52 and MX-200. Featuring both an undercut cavity and Grain Flow forged feel this means the MX-300 offers the assistance of a game improvement irons with the shot making ability of the MP range.

The MX-300 Irons uses Mizuno’s Y-Tune technology from the MX200 to provide a full cavity club with enhanced feel and control but in a reconfigured shape. This enables Mizuno to strengthen the area around the toe for more forgiveness. The sole of the MX-300 irons is also dual cambered to minimize turf drag and digging at impact.
