After hearing the positive comments on this driver in a variety of club reviews, I decided to give it a try at the range. I tried a variety of lofts and shaft flexes, settling on the 9 degree driver with the stiff/regular shaft. It seemed a good match for my swing speed and transition.

Basically, this driver delivers the goods. It is as forgiving as you might expect from an oversize titanium driver at 9 degrees. It also seems to lend the distance benefit it claims (maybe 5-7 yards). I've cycled through a lot of drivers in the last year, but this one seems to be a keeper.

Bought the 9* with UST65 factory installed. Had trouble at first, took a lesson, now I am smoking the ball. I wouldn't call this a game improvement club, but if your swing is fundamentally solid, and you can't stand the super-oversize drivers, this is the one. Can't wait till it gets warm and I can really let it fly!

If you wan to hit the longest drives of your life without having your wallet raped by the ERC buy the t-zoid. Im a 14 year old 5-10 ft wimp that barely weighs 140 when my wallet is full and I can take a smooth swing and put it out there a 280. I can go after one and hit it a good 3. This driver calls for some percision, but not alot. I'm no Hoganesque ball striker and I manage to catch it solid 90% of the time. Workable, playable, and crush-able. Long long oh baby so long. I would fully recomend you to buy one. On the other hand, no dont buy one I want to keep it all to my self. If every one gets one I will no longer be the long ball among my common foursome. I cant stand the comp. Hogan Apex plus irons(3 degrees upright), 975F fairway wood (14.5), pro platinum(newport), vokey gap (52), hogan special (57). Thats my bag and Im stickin' to it. Couldnt be happier with my clubs.

I am a high handicapper and have been playing about a year. I purchased the Mizuno as my first driver. I tried just about all the major manufacturers and even some componants with custom shafts. The Adams SC was easier to hit but the ball explodes off the face of this. TaylorMade was nice but this thing was much longer. Ping was long but just plain awkward. Callaway felt like their degree ratings were inflated about 1* to 2* above competition. It was forgiving but nothing exciting. The Mizuno feels like it is built like a German car. It instills confidence at address. It is as forgiving as any driver but has its learning curve. The stock shaft leaves something to be desired. After hearing a lot of other people complaining about the shafts I got the stiff and it plays like a firm or less. I wouldn't advise anyone play less than stiff in this except seniors. With the regular shaft I was all over the place. It tests out just above senior flex. I can already hit this 260 very straight as a beginner. Tons of roll with this. This is tagged as a low handicapper driver and I cannot figure out why. It must be the instability of the shafts or the tour models. This is the hottest driver on tour right now (all custom shafts no doubt) and it is dificult to find stock much less demo clubs. I tried to get a custom shaft but Mizuno is not handeling any custom orders as they cannot get any heads from regular production. Most other review sites are going gaga over this claiming it to have the workability of the 975D and the distance of the ISI. Also less expensive than either. I have yet to be able to exploit this to that extent but hope to work into it. As always Mizuno has a 30 day money back guarantee on this driver but will see very few comming back.

Mizuno was very informative about the engineering of their driver. Told me they would work thru any problems I had if the shaft flex didn't work and my dealer couldn't get desired one.

Bought this club to replace my Taylor Made which had seen it's day. Wanted something in titanium so club pro showed me this one.I liked the look of the club right away, nice clean lines and it had the look of power. I was hooked right away. It's got great ball flight, and it's easy to move the ball both ways off the tee. The distance is also a little longer than my old club. This club is meant for someone who knows their swing and is fairly consistant off the tee. Hit it well and youll reap the benefits.

Posted a review earlier in the year.
About a month later i started having problems with fading the ball and sometimes even slicing.
Brought it to
Golfsmith swung it on their computerized
tee, they informed me that the shaft (stiff) was twisting a lot on impact.
I reshafted with Penley Tour Light 3.1
Stiff, and added some weight (d-3).
Long as before, slight draw, no more twisting.
I would recommend a reshaft if your swing speed is 105 or higher.
I still love the driver, just something to be aware of.

I started playing golf three weeks ago and everyone knows you have to keep the wife happy. I read the reviews on the Mizuno T-Zoid Drivers and found one on clearance. You people were absolutely right - this is one HOT Driver. I've only starting out at the driving range and I'm smacking the air at 250 yards. I'm obviously very new to this game but this club makes golf fun.

Since January, I have tried every new driver out there. The Callaway VFT, Taylor 320 and 300. The 975D and I even reverted back to a used 7 degree biggest bertha and my Hawkeye. My posts on those clubs will tell the whole story but for those past five months or so, the guy who owns a little local golf shop near my work has been telling me to try the Mizuno Tzoid. Every time I went looking for another new driver, my eyes were on the mizuno but I always got something else or fell back to my Hawkeye. But I just wanted a different feel that that so last week I went over and had a talk with Dave at Scott Golf. It didn't take too much work for him to talk me into buying a T-zoid 9 degree with the one degree close face. I also got the stiff accell shaft. After two days at the range, I took this club out to a two day tournament in Palm Springs this weekend and I just can't believe this club. I kicked myself all weekend for not getting this thing sooner. Not only is this a great looking club, it makes a great sound at impact but more importantly, the ball flight just screams. Other people who have posted on this club have reshafted the club because the accell shaft seemed too soft to them. Believe me, I have tried different shafts in the past five months with all those other clubs. I like the stiff accell. I'm not trying to kill it and I'm taking smooth solid swings and the ball just explodes. I'm hitting just a slight fade with it and when needed, I can draw it. NEVER could I do that with any other the other clubs I have tried, or the different shafts I tried with the 320, 300 and the 975D. All my buddies were fighting me over being able to hit it this weekend. I think what I like most about it is the size. It's just not overly huge and it's a great looking club

I recently bought the Mizuno, and after testing a few of the top of the range drivers from various manufacturers (Titleist,Ping,Taylor Made etc.), I found that I hit the Mizuno the most consistently. It seemed to put exceptional run on the ball, meaning that even for badly struck shots (topped or skyed) it continued to run on for 100+yds. One point of note, make sure you try various shaft flexes and lofts - as I rushed buying mine, and in the end, I exchanged my original 10° Loft, Regular flex for the 9°, Stiff/Regular flex. Mizuno shafts seem fairly whippy and so the stiffer shaft made the difference for me - I made better contact and felt more comfortable when swinging. Nevada Bob were perfectly happy to exchange them as my original driver didn't have a mark on it. The club plays exceptionally well, and I find that the ball cuts through wind exceptionally well (using Titleist HP Eclipse) and runs really well on the fairway. If you're considering a top of the range titanium driver, try the Mizuno, I guarantee you'll like it! I think that it will suit both low and high handicappers, as my friend (12 h/cap) also has one and seems to enjoy using it as well.
When you make a sweet contact with the ball, the active kick shaft really lets you know, by sweeping through with positive ball-on-club feedback. The head looks nice sitting behind the ball at address, shiny and smooth without being off putting.
The only downside that I can see is that the headcover is so padded and of such good quality (leather & suede), that i have trouble getting it into the trunk of the car in my trolley bag! ;))
The only other tip I can think of is to try a wide variety of clubs before narrowing it down, then try each club you like in a variety of shafts and lofts until you find one that best suits your game.
Happy hitting!

Peter
