Leading the way - the new Mizuno wedge

Mizune T-11 wedge

With new laws coming into effect in the golfing world next year, Mizuno have reacted by releasing the new MP T-11 wedge that is complete with grooves that conform to the coming changes.
Available in either two-tone satin chrome or glare-resistant black nickel, the new wedges, which follow last year’s T-10 range is a fantastic looking club with great playability.
The new regulations won’t affect most amateur golfers for many years yet, but this release suggests Mizuno feels that enough people will be interested in replacing the wedge in their bag.
On the new T-11, whose head is grain flow forged from carbon steel for extra feel, the grooves are Quad-Cut to make them as big as they’re allowed to be under the new laws but the club manufacturer has introduced two different types of grooves to their wedges. These depend on the loft of the club.
Their clubs with less loft (50-54°), the wedges will feature, narrower yet deeper grooves that are suitable for full shots. The more lofted clubs (56-64°) will possess shallower, wider marking because these clubs are generally used for incomplete shots, which in turn means the ball isn’t as compressed on contact as much.
On the actual clubface, CNC milled score lines maintain the spin rates in comparison to the T-10 model.
If you decide to change to this from the T-10 model, you shouldn’t notice too much change in performance, yet you will be safe in the knowledge that your club conforms to regulations when they are finally brought into action for amateur golfers.

New Mizuno JPX Series wedges

JPX Series Wedges

Mizuno have been extremely busy recently, and they have just announced the launch of their new JPZ Series game-improver wedges.
These fantastic new low range irons have been designed to complement the JPX-800 irons but will work well with any set of game-improver irons.
Designed with high handicappers in mind, the clubheads are slightly oversized which helps to inspire confidence during address of the ball and this also makes for an easier transition from your larger cavity-back pitching wedge.
The lofts have also been modified and feature stronger gradients, starting at 49°. This fits in with the modern trend of greater lofted irons from short range.
Mizuno have considered both forgiveness and versatility with the design of these wedges and the technology they have used helps this.
The cavity back spreads the weight around to help increase forgiveness but the sole has been triple cut for a beveled finish that leaves a trailing edge and rounded middle to make it play narrower to increase versatility and reduce the impact of the wider sole.
Having clubs like this in your bag will certainly help your game. Personally, short range shots and chipping are the hardest part of the game so to have a club which can increase your feel from these distances will help you to improve greatly.
And with Mizuno, you know you’re going to get a tremendous club that lasts the distance. These are thoroughly recommended to anyone who wants to improve their short game or has a high handicap and wants to get it tumbling down.
Cracking clubs for the high handicapper. Well done Mizuno.
