Mizuno MX-900 Irons

Is there room for a Hemi in the world of golf clubs ?

When Mizuno introduced the MX-900™ irons, the designers at Mizuno had challenged themselves to create the most effective game improvement irons in the industry.

The results were a special set of irons. Not only is this Mizuno’s most Hi-Tech iron, but it also delivers unbelievable performance for mid and high handicappers.

The Mizuno Product Development Team takes forgiveness and ease of launch to a new level with the MX-900. They were able to accomplish this in the 3-7 irons through a forged face and neck utilizing Hollow Technology, as well as Mizuno’s breakthrough Hybrid H.E.M.I. (High Energy Mass Impact) COG technology.

The new Hybrid H.E.M.I. COG technology in these irons (3-7) utilizes a 12 gram Tungsten weight that positions the COG low and deep for maximum energy transfer resulting in increased distance and forgiveness. Also, two piece hollow technology head construction (3-7) utilizing a CNC milled face with plasma welding ensures precise COG placement in each iron, and a CORTECH™ face design utilizes three distinct face thickness areas to deliver consistent distance control and feel.

When players get down to the scoring irons (8-PW) they experience a one piece Grain Flow Forging which utilizes a solid power bar design delivering solid feel with maximum control and accuracy.

In addition to the multiple technologies, the MX-900™ features a super forgiving, ultra wide sole to increase ease of launch and deliver consistent ball striking ability from all types of lies.

The MX-900s are double nickel chrome plated for an elegant appearance and increased durability, and deep U-grooves produce the ideal spin rate for maximum playability in all conditions.

The MX-900 are offered with True Temper® Dynalite Gold® Super Lite shafts (R300,S300) standard in steel and Mizuno’s Exsar IS2 shafts (regular, stiff) standard in graphite. Also standard on the MX-900 will be the Golf Pride® Tour Velvet 58 Round grip.

The MX-900™ irons are available in right-handed models only and custom options are available through Mizuno’s Custom Club department.

Try a set today and you’ll see why Mizuno irons are thought of as special.

Oysters And Golf In The Brunswick Isles

by Mike Sigers on September 2, 2006

Oysters

Every year, I believe, thousands of seafood lovers gather in the Brunswick Isles to pay homage
to their seafood of choice…Oysters. Usually the event is at Ocean Isle Beach.

They have Oyster Shuckin’ and Surf Contests, 5 and 10K Road Races, an Oyster Stew Cook-Off,
and over 100 vendors.

The chance to eat oysters and play golf in and around the Brunswick Isles is about all I can ask for.

If anyone has any info on this years event, send it to me !
