Mizuno

Mizuno ST180

Our Review:

The size clearly reveals the ST180 to be the more forgiving of Mizuno's two new drivers. But there's a problem with some large drivers: Their higher-than-ideal center of gravity can create too much distance-sapping ball spin. So how does Mizuno get low spin and forgiveness? The internal weighting is concentrated low because of a deep weight pad in the back, a thin crown that features an internal waffle pattern and a wave sole that puts more material down low. The distance that comes with all of this forgiveness is a superplastic titanium alloy (strong and resiliently flexible) that can be made selectively thinner.

Low-Handicapper
The shape is just right. Good distance and easy to control the spin.
Mid-Handicapper
It's easy to position at address. I really like the proportions. Smooth through impact.
High-Handicapper
This blue is soothing, calm. The soleplate looks like it helps you get more ball speed.
