It’s working out fine. I got the HL version (I would never use something below10 degrees) so that makes sense for me. It’s just really easy to hit.

It takes great effort to keep ahead of the pack, but try I must :)

Enjoy Orlando. It sounds a special experience.

So when is this bad boy being released in Europe?

And is Rick Shiels getting one for review?

No one from Mizuno to let us know precisely when ?

1st of February maybe ?

I'm looking forward to try it and see if it will let my JPX850 (that I like a lot) go for retirement, or not..

Too late, I’ll have my M4 by then. Mizuno need to buck their marketing ideas up.

ST180 with our tech reps and Performance Centres by 5th Feb.  General release on 12th Feb.

GT180 with our tech reps and Performance Centres by 19th Feb.  General release on 26th Feb.

That's the plan anyway.  Obviously we'd love to get them with you earlier - but that's just the timeline on shipping / assembly etc.  Worth waiting the extra week to give them a hit before committing to anything else.  Very, very good feedback on both of these models from retail previews / launch monitor info.

Saw some pros in Orlando bombing the ST and preferred how lively it felt compared to the GT180.  Numbers wise there's not much in it  - same face material.  Others prefer the feel off the GT180.  So going to be a very personal call.

The potential fade / draw bias in the GT180 is huge .  Plus a big drop in the low spin side compared to JPX900.

What is the reason for moving from Speeder shafts to Mitsubishi Tensei?

More modern?

Got a Speeder in my JPX 900 3 wood and really like it.

R&D boys spend a lot of time shaft testing.  They've figured out that this range gives the best breadth of options.  Believe there are 12 shafts in the standard demo pack.  They're confident its a very good offering.

Really like the look of this.

This could knock the Titleist out of the bag.

Just hoping they don't launch at £400.

It's "fun" to look at the winter sales with 40% off, the drivers that cost 600 new are now only 360. Long gone are the days when new drivers were less than 300 new and maybe 180 in the winter sale.

Not sure at all I will find it in France.
Distribution has changed, and Mizuno woods have far less buzz than the american stuff.

I wonder what shaft would compare to the white shaft I have currently with my JPX850 ?
I like that one
