PostHeaderIcon Golf Sport News :180 – Oh So Right…

The regular reader of this crappy little blog will know that I have a thing for Mizuno. For me they are a perfect blend of technology and design yet don’t fall into the trap of appealing to the club captain at the local private course. I like the fact that they aren’t as popular Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf Sport News :179 – Manga Ads And Sk8erboi Bags…

I’ve been looking at Mizuno’s new marketing and I’m a little confused. Their latest adverts depict a Manga-like, cartoon character playing like a hero with their stunning new JPX800 clubs. The advert is very cool, really interesting and will make no sense to anyone over 40 Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf Sports :177 – Starting All Over Again…

I received a text from a mate last night asking what clubs I owned as he was thinking of taking up golf. I was excited naturally – another lost soul to trudge around a muddy field with, both of us aiming with perfection but settling for a decent lie in the rough or a favourable Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf Sport News :172 – An Unfortunate Sight…

I mentioned in a previous post that I now have a beautiful Kangaroo from Daphne’s adorning my Mizuno driver. My lovely, lovely fiancée highlighted the fact that if the cover isn’t turned the right way the cute image is completely shattered (below)!!! Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf News :167 – Cuddly Toy Impaling…

I’m turning into that which I despise. I’ve gone out and bought myself one of those novelty driver head covers. I feel a twat to be honest, not because I’ve bought a cuddly toy I intend to shove my 460cc Mizuno driver up but because I like it (the cover not the stuffed animal Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf Sports :147 – Going It Alone…

After discovering that Mizuno have been developing golf balls behind my back (naughty Mizuno) I decided to see what else they had been up to in the Land of the Rising Sun. Interestingly they have been creating a new range of forged putters after ending their exclusive partnership Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf News :146 – Only In Asia…

I’ve noticed that all the big manufacturers produce balls with the exception of the lovely Mizuno…or so I thought. I stumbled across an article announcing that Mizuno’s new Tour ball had already bagged its first win. I beg your pardon, what new Tour ball? Hang on, it sounds Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf Sport News :139 – Sand Blasted…

I mentioned in my last post that the bunker had the beating of me; another thing that took a beating was my wedge. The club comes with what Mizuno call a Raw Haze finish, which is a sort of dark bronze coating designed to come off over time leaving the face covered in spin producing Read the rest of this entry »

PostHeaderIcon Golf Sports News :121 – A Touch Of Menace…

The regular reader of this little blog will know that I’m a sucker for technology, if the technology looks good too then I’m in, hook, line and sinker. Needless to say I adore the Odyssey Sabertooth putter. Design and materials technology combined with extraordinary looks and Read the rest of this entry »
