Mizuno Wedges: In a League of Their Own

If you start talking to those who own Mizuno wedges, you will find them highly acclaimed. The high quality craftsmanship has helped many a golfer to improve his or her game, and the pleasure derived from it.

Owning Mizuno wedges, with their high quality finish, is something many golfers aspire towards. There is, however, a common misconception that you have to be “good enough” to warrant the making of custom made clubs from their “fitted” range. Mizuno Golf clubs are custom made to help you be all you can be as a player. If you deny yourself the opportunity, you are holding yourself back.

These are the customizing options for Mizuno golf clubs:

1. The shaft length - it is fine tuned to perfection to allow you to hit the sweet spot more consistently.

2. The shaft flex - this affects the trajectory, the ball flight, and the distance achieved. It is optimized to produce the best possible speed.

3. The lie angle - besides determining your set up position, it also affects how the club face angle is affected by the ground through impact.

4. The grip - it’s optimized, but not only to suit your hands and grip size.

5. The loft.

Mizuno wedges are also available in left hand versions, although that (understandably so) only goes for the most popular models. You could also, should you wish to, replace your steel shafts with graphite ones. This can now be done without any changes to the swing weight which you would have to adapt to.

To arrange for a custom fitment, you can simply select the “fitter locator” on the Mizuno website, and find the nearest fitment center. Your authorized retailer is also the only one allowed to make any adjustments, like loft, lie, and shaft replacements, without voiding your warranty.

If you decide to buy your Mizuno wedges online, do some homework, and assure yourself that you are dealing with a fully authorized dealer, in order to access the full factory warranty. Places like Ebay are classified as reseller environments, so you may end up buying your wedge without the factory warranty.
