Re: Pics from the Open

Mizuno staff house...........scene of an epic BBQ on Monday night.  Plus the table where Chris Wood and Bryson Dechambeau (not playing Mizuno clubs) faced off.  Bryson did eat our burgers though.

Re: Pics from the Open

Think at last count there were 8 sets of Mizuno's in play.....just 2 of those by contracted players.  Chris Wood and Jhonattan Vegas.

Hot Die Forged?

I see it is High Density.

Google Translate "Grain Flow Forged HD pursuing further hit feeling *

Mizuno's advanced patented forging technology, the world patent "Grain Flow Forged Manufacturing Process" evolved. Succeeded to densify the forging line inside the head to the ball striking part by a new manufacturing method. As a result, the ball hitting sound will sound longer and the hitting feeling improves.

※ HD = High Density"

Would "high density" be another way to achieve the same effect as adding Boron?

The Boron was supposed to give it , the face, extra strength so that they could produce a thinner face and obtain faster ball speed whereas the HD looks as if it supposed to improve the feel and sound. The new 918 irons still have boron added.
