Main features of Mizuno wedges
Mizuno wedges are handmade and, of course, the Japanese design is immediately noticeable when you put them on the ground and hold them in your hand. The 2024 wedges have very defined characteristics, which I will detail below:
Material
Grain Flow Forged in Hiroshima, Japan, to ensure precise shape and unmatched touch around the green. Now with higher spin QUADCUT+ grooves and five unique sole profiles.
Stretch marks
Quadcut+ arise from the realization that an adjustment of their angle and cone shape allows the grooves to be closer together, which results in greater spin control.
CRAFTSMAN refined top line
Mass taken from the toe portion and a lower hosel mixture create a smaller profile without loss of effective hitting area.
Performance in wet conditions
Mizuno's HydroFlow micro grooves are laser etched to release moisture and reduce spin loss.
Loft specific profile
Straight leading edge in lower lofts (up to 51), towards the traditional teardrop, and more rounded lob wedges (58 and above).
Surround relief on the sole
Increased sole relief on the heel and toe in all 5 grind options.
Three finishing options
Soft White Satin (copper based), Denim Copper and Tour Raw.
Spin-weighted blade design
The wedge's flared top creates higher spin and a penetrating trajectory, especially on high shots in closely mown grass.
Mizuno Wedges models for this 2024
Mizuno currently has two clearly differentiated models, the T-Series range and the S-Series range. One range is for players looking for the 100% of club control, with a lower level of forgiveness and a more wedge blade feel. The other range is the one that we usually recommend in our wedge fittings to players with handicaps of 18 to 36.
In this case, we find the following models:
Mizuno T-24
When we first saw the Mizuno T24 wedge, I was surprised by its compact size. This is a classic teardrop shape with a small footprint like its predecessor, the T22. The profile changes slightly as you progress through the lofts, with higher lofted wedges having a more rounded leading edge (56 degrees shown above). In the bag, the T24 has a very clean look. There is a lot of empty space, focusing attention on the medium-sized ratite and the “T24” logos. The loft and bounce designations are located on the toe of the club.Sound and Feel: On my first few swings, I was surprised at how quiet the Mizuno T24 wedge is. Although it was indoors, the impact was low in volume, with a muffled "knock."
Mizuno S-23
Completely designed for extreme backspin, the S23 combines the precision and playing profile of a player's blade wedge with the aggressive performance of a tip-weighted design. A shorter hosel and heel-facing cavity allow for more mass pushed toward the toe and a centered sweet spot (located on the heel side of conventional wedges). The centered sweet spot contributes to longer impact time, less head deviation and higher spin on full and partial hits. Delivered with the unmistakable feel of a Mizuno Grain Flow Forging piece.
Player Opinions on Mizuno Wedges
For the golfer looking for a classic, compact profile at address, the Mizuno T24 wedge is a winner. It incorporates a more modern CG and higher spin while still looking like a traditional short game tool. The five sole profiles offer many options to build a versatile wedge set.
The Mizuno S23 wedge is a short game tool that golfers should consider regardless of their skill level. Any type of player can benefit from the centered sweet spot, and the variety of sole grinds allows you to design your wedge set to meet your needs.
Are Mizuno Wedges the best option for your golf?
If you want a Japanese-style product, with an excellent touch and with many options of materials, grades and grindings, do not hesitate that this wedge is for you. Of course, we have to warn you that they are a little more expensive than other similar models from other manufacturers, but if you are looking for a wedge with a Japanese touch and design, you can't hesitate: choose Mizuno!
