    Chris always speaks well in interviews.Mizuno keeps pumping the money into the product,not the advertising.Now uncontracted players are choosing to play Mizuno,and not some other brand for coin

    I’m glad they moved away from the blue woods.

    John it’s interesting that Chris has mentioned the move away from blue saw the biggest uptick in why people gravitated to the new one. I’ve got an ST180 in the bag that is very good performance wise.

    I hit the ST190 and ST190G on Tuesday night alongside my blue one (180) and my ‘16 M2.

    The only difference I noticed was the feel and the sound. The composite of the 190 gave that familiar feel of the recent composite drivers. The 180 is fairly loud but still killed it from a performance point of view.

    There’s a Mizuno fitting day in a week or so, I might see if I’ll be in town for it.

    I loved the blue and thought the 850 is still the best looking driver I have seen to date. Interesting to hear the comment regarding forgiveness, being such a low spinning driver they had issues with off centre hits falling out of the sky.

    I haven't tried the ST 190 yet but keen to next time Mizuno do a demo day in Adelaide. Interesting since they changed the SA rep (formerly the Tanunda Pines Operations Manager) we have heard very little in SA from Mizuno!

    It's like a dream collaboration, really like some of the stuff Chris Voshall has been talking about for a while and just seems to be a genuinely honest bloke (can't say I get the same feels from some of the other manufacturers). And TXG have been great too, getting into the specifics and explaining a lot of things that you hear around the traps that are actually old wives tales.
