MP-69 Irons Review

Following on from the highly-successful mp-68 irons, the new blades have been designed to offer workability and high levels of feel to the more accomplished golfer. Mizuno engineers designed a 4D Muscle innovation that means golfers can expect a slightly higher trajectory with the longer irons, and a more penetrative ball flight in the shorter sticks where distance control is crucial. In terms of looks, the mizuno mp-69 irons are as visually-pleasing as their predecessors but there is certainly a larger element of forgiveness about the new clubs, in spite of their bladed appearance.

The mizuno mp-69 irons, the next iconic mizuno muscle-back iron, was created by blending Mizuno's PGA Tour Staff input with the latest state-of-the-art design and simulation tools. This iron is the perfect balance of Grain Flow Forged feel and unmatched workability. The mizuno mp-69 irons feature the newly developed 4D muscle design. A strategic weighting strategy from 3-Iron through PW ensures ideal COG (Center Of Gravity) placement in every iron throughout the set to deliver total ball control and a predictable trajectory.

 It's safe to say that Mizuno are best known for their stunning bladed irons and therefore the new mizuno mp-69 irons were hotly anticipated this year.
The mizuno mp-69 irons have been designed with more "helpful" trajectories in the longer irons but these are still very much for the skilled player who places feel and workability above all else. You can get the lowdown on the mizuno mp-69 irons blades in the current issue of today's golfer magazine, on sale now, and we'll have more information coming to the website soon. But for now we came across this video below with Chris Voshall from Mizuno's R&D department, which gives a great insight into the thinking behind the new design.
The sole shape of the mizuno mp-69 irons was slightly redesigned to maintain effective bounce while increasing overall workability through trailing edge relief.  An ideally placed beveled trailing edge delivers more consistent ball striking with a Tour proven sole size and shape.  Complete with the appropriate amount of relief for a deeper Center of Gravity (COG), Mizuno’s new sole design increases the versatility of the mizuno mp-69 irons. Modified U-grooves, which conform to the Condition of Competition 2010, produce the ideal spin rate for maximum playability in all conditions.
