Mizuno MX-560
$299, graphite

WE TESTED:
8.5°, 9.5° and 10.5° in Exsar DS3 graphite shaft
COMPANY LINE:
"The geometric head shape increases the
heel-toe and up-down MOI for massive
forgiveness, while
maintaining a low
spin rate and high
launch angle. The
CNC milled plasma welded CorTech
face insert delivers
maximum USGA allowable
ball speed
across the face."
OUR TEST PANEL SAYS:
• Pros: Minimal loss of distance or direction on mis-hits; good
heft during swing, not like an oversized feather; some like the
raised bar on crown and aerodynamic shape; heel
shots are covered up; delivers tightest side-toside
dispersion; glossy blue exterior makes club
look strong and easy to hit; ball jumps off face.
• Cons: Nothing spectacular, but nothing terribly
lacking versus the field; not a vast amount of
difference in feel between good and not-so-good hits;
closed face can be disturbing; high-pitched ringing sound at impact; better players frown over raised runner on crown.
"Extremely consistent, repeatable, high-ball flight." —Bud Adler (14)
