A few weeks ago I purchased the MX 700 3 wood from a friends recommendation. I was so pleased with it, I went out and got the 10.5 driver with a stiff shaft. The club is the most forgiving and longest driver I've had to date.

Itried my buddies MX700 and went out and bought one the next day. Great driver, and I have been looking for the right one for a LONG time, tried most everything.

Most recent was the Burner '09, and it is a good stick, but no wow factor. The Ping G10 is better, but still not quite it. The G15 was a loser, IMO, as was the newer Speedline and the Nike dymo... ecch!

I have a swing speed of around 105, but the R flex stock shaft worked great for me with the 9.5* loft. I bombed one 310+ and I am a handsome 53... :-)

The design on the crown is a Burner knock-off, but the sound and distance and accuracy is top notch.

No offense to the last reviewer, but Titleist has not had a winner since the 905R, and that one was a spin-meister.

Mine was $135 slightly used... a steal. I do not care for Mizuno irons, and their past drivers were iffy, but this one... they stumbled on a winner.

Model Reviewed: Mizuno MX700 9.5 degree, Regular Mizuno Exsar Shaft

I am a big fan of Mizuno Woods having had various models over the years. I really liked the look of the MX700 range and so used my golf vouchers to purchase the Driver and Hybrid. I bought the 3 wood with my own cash.

What a dissapointment!!

I couldn't get any consistency with the driver and hit it way too high. I put this down to the shaft flex being too soft for me, so I went to my local driving range and asked them if they could re-shaft it for me. They told me that it wasn't the shaft that was the problem, it was the internal weighting of the head. The head is designed to help golfers get the best trajectory in order to maximise distance. My problem is that I already hit the ball high and so on windy days, I was losing up to 70 yards when driving into a headwind - not good!!

So after taking the advice of the pro at the driving range, I got rid of the entire MX700 range and picked up a Titleist 909D3, 8.5 degrees with the stiff aldila voodoo shaft. This combination works very well for me.

By the way, the 3 wood was good (nice draw on most hits) but the hybrid was very poor. I couldn't hit it at all and when caught flush gave very little feedback.

I have tried the Callaway ft5, Cobra l4v, and the Burner 09 model. Did not like each one for various reasons.
So, after 3 yrs away from golf, I purchased the above, tried them, hated them, and then I came across the Mizuno Mx-700. I've hit the old Tzoid models, which I liked.
The Pros of this Mizuno series Mx-700 which I like are: the sound is mint, distance is way better then the ones mentioned above, addressing the ball is easy, and the weight is unbelievable.
The cons, only thing is the overall feeling when you hit the ball. No matter where you hit the ball on the club face, same feeling and definitely same distance of the tee. You can swing as hard as you want, the same feeling.
I would recommend this club to anyone. Give Mizuno a try and get off the Callaway hype.

I am a driver ho!!!! - love looking at Clubs, reading reviews and trying various demo days. I then usually look at Ebay for a good second hand deal.

At a guess i have had a different driver every month for the best part of 2 years - having said that, I have been settled of late with a Snake Eye Viper tour and Voodoo combo.

So, after reading various reviews in magazines, websites and the first review on this forum, I decided to try out the MX700.
After an initial hit at the American Golf Centre AND the next day at Direct Golf I could see that the was something in their claims of Higher launch and lower spin.

I got booked into the Mizuno Fitting programme in Surrey and went for a fit yesterday.

My own driver faired well on the statistics but my feeling of it launching too low (10.6) and too wide a dispersion was borne out in the Vector Pro LM.

With my own driver clubspeed showing at around the 88-92 mph the fitter decided on The first MX700 offering was with the Prolaunch Blue in reg. This showed an improvement immediately to my own club.

Fuji 360 shaft was negative for me as was the Prolaunch red. Then we tried the bog-standard reg Exsar shaft. The results were amazing.

Club speed up to a consistent 92, launch angle an average of 14.7 ; carry to 214 (up 18yards on my own club); roll 17.4 (up 5 yards) and spin an average of 2563.

As important to these good positive figures was the dispersion was down to an incredible 2.9 yards..... and my side spin was a +303 against a -574.

So, it was decided that the standard combo was best for me - then we went onto the range away from the fitting equipment and hit a few .............. mmmmmmm lovely !

A rainbow trajectory with a soft gentle draw on each and every hit..... a new experience for me.

Now I have to wait until it arrives, together with the equally impressive 3 wood, and take it to the Course.

Mizuno have done a fabulous job with this range and I strongly urge anyone reading this to at least include this club into the future demo's.

fitting was far better than Titleist's!

Model Reviewed: 9.5 Stiff Flex Exsar

I've owned quite a few drivers in the past, usualy buying off ebay due to reviews I'd read in magazines or online articles. Taylormade R7 425 and R5 Dual, Ping G5, Nike Sasquatch to name a few. My most recent driver which I've had for a year is the Cobra LD F Speed in Reg flex and 10.5 degrees. Apart from the awful noise at impact, the Cobra has been my favourite as it helped cure a bad push with fade into a nice draw. Its been instrumental in getting my handicap down by a couple of points, however, recently I'd developed a pull due to the increased effort/power I was putting into the swing to gain those extra few yards. So off I went to my local Direct-Golf store here in the UK specifically to get my swing speed measured, turns out I am now a constant 95 mph which is just into the stiff shaft bracket. I decided I may as well buy a new driver and told the sales assistant that money was no object; all I wanted was long and straight. I then tried the following drivers, all in a stiff shaft with either 9.5 or 10.5 loft: Ping rapture,Ping G10 with V2 shaft TM Tour Burner, Titleist 909D2 with Aldila Voodoo shaft,Adams XTD, Callaway FT9 and the Mizuno MX-700. I hit a few hundred balls over a couple of hours and discounted the drivers in the following order. First to go was the Titliest, I could not stop hooking this visciously with a very low flight. Next was the Tour Burner. If you can catch this on the sweet spot it goes forever; any heel or toes and you suffer badly. Both the Pings went next due to bad hooks and a high flight. I think if I'd have used a mid kick shaft the hooks would have been worse. The Callaway went next; this had a lovely mid to high boring flight and was quite good with shot dispersion. Again though, you'd need a good strike on the sweet spot (which I believe was bigger than the Tour Burner) everytime to benefit. If I'm being honest I also had its high price in the back of my mind. The last to go was the Adams. A great club that I could hit straight or with a slight draw time after time. Never did i hit a ball to the right! The only thing it lacked was some decent feedback on the shot. No matter where I hit it; toe, middle or heel; it all felt the same. So that leaves me with the Mizuno MX 700. Now I'd never tried Mizuno drivers ever; I'd used some MX 25 irons which were very good, but never really heard good things about their drivers. Things have changed! This driver is stinky long and stinky straight. The ball flight was high but not ballooning in anyway. It was easily as long as the Callaway FT9, maybe longer in total distance and definately longer in carry by a long way. Shot dispersion was amazing with everything landing pretty much where I aimed. Even after hitting hundres of balls with my arms getting tired, the club would just not go wrong. Very very forgiving all over the face too. Mizuno sell this club claiming it has the highest launch with the lowest spin - its true, it has! So I bought one there and then; 9.5 loft with a stock Exsar stiff shaft. Finally, for a comparison and 'old times sake', I hit one ball with my old Cobra and one with the new Mizuno. Cobra was a 240 yard pull, Mizuno was a 260 yard fairway splitter; Job Done!
