Mizuno won’t chase players at any level. Whether top amateurs or
professionals Mizuno is more likely to deal with players who already play
its equipment. Other brands have an increasingly aggressive approach – so
there are fewer players to go around. Although there is still a very
strong following of Mizuno equipment amongst top amateurs.?
Thanks for all the comments. Hope this puts the forged irons you play in a
different light.?
PING Baby. If Mizunos so good, how come almost no players use them on PGA?.
I went to a top amateur tourney, no Mizunos, Not one set and I checked all.
So dont give me the “we dont pay execuse”!!!. Fact is all the top brands
PING/Titleist/Taylormade,,,,all the same!.?
Miura clubs are better?
You should make Chris his own YouTube channel where we can just talk about
every golf club and how it’s made and it’s features and comparing them,
just for ages
I WANT
That is not drop forging it is stamping.
This is not stamping. Did you see the shape of the billet, then the shape
after that 3x pounding? Stamping mostly refers to shaping of sheet metal.
You don’t alter the grain density with stamping.
I love mizuno!
1025 is carbon low carbon steel. thats about as plain as you can get.
Starting to really appreciate forged clubs
Gorgeous video
a lot of pride in that manufacturing process.
You guys sure do know how to make a good product video. Chris Voshall is
always great to listen to.
I didn’t think porn was allowed on Youtube.
It would be ‘milling’ when you talk of metal being ‘sculpted’.
Getting fitted for my first set of mizuno’s.. I. Cannot. Wait!
I thought forged steel was simply a solid piece of metal that is cut
(forged) to the final shape, not “stamped” or “pounded” into shape? Like a
sculptor would chisel marble into to a sculpture…?
And conversely forging marble wouldn’t work because you’d just be breaking
up the crystal lattice. It’s not very malleable. Forging is done on
malleable materials as a stronger but usually more costly alternative to
casting and milling.
Feels like forging samurai swords.
mild steel with a very low carbon content = mild carbon steel or mild
steel, or very low carbon steel.
mate I don’t think its wise to question the japs on forging. its their art
