Thanks. I am sad about this they were purdy putters
I agree. The TP Mills Mizuno putters were quite awesome as well.

Well it's March and sub-freezing in Michigan so....lol.
I fully plan on trying them out! Just curious why now?
Website information on clubs needs improvement. Technical information is almost non-existent as compared to other manufacturers.

Agree with this, its one of the tougher sites to navigate for info.
Discuss the strategy of bringing out the Hot Metal Pro when you have the 919 Forged.
Was it the image of the Forged being too demanding (they are very forgiving) and this would expand sales?
Did you discuss that HM Pro might take away from sales of the Forged? Is it that forgiveness (making the game easier) seems to be in vogue moreso than feel and playability?
Why not make the offset of the Forged and HM Pro the same and the gapping between 919F and Forged more compatible for mixed sets?
If able, please discuss new forged wedges as it is a prime topic on the forums.
Also, I know they have the Recoil 95. Might they think of expanding the lineup to 780ES SmakWraps? Also, the Project X LZ Tour 90 bring a lot of energy but lack some feel, and the flex between 5.0 and 6.0 leaves too much of a gap. I should know - I bought a set in 5.0 and 6.0, hardstepping and softstepping once (respectively). But that did not do the trick. I ended up spending $300 extra by reshafting into an Accra 80i in a Regular Plus flex - perfect. Probably a lot of people like me. Would you consider expanding graphite options? Thx.

Had a great time with the Mizuno crew.
I will be able to answer a number of these coming up later once we are settled in at the airport.

Interesting note, with in 5 minutes in the office, their Director of Golf said he watched the episode.

Fresh off this launch discussions always exist, but we will have to wait and see on that one.

Right now they are very fitting focused and believe they have a very expansive offering in both metal woods and irons. With the update to the Shaft Optimizer, they believe all golfers should be fit and find the best shaft for them. While they can't have all options as non-upcharge options, they do have quite a few.

They are an iron company and I dont think that will change. They are very proud of the current ST190 lineup and winning shortly after launch date definitely has made some strides. They had a solid sell in effort for Q1 and sell through numbers will begin taking shape soon.

1. Its their first global golf ball and while they are excited about both the product and the future, they are not crazy to think it will immediately make a huge impact in marketshare or anything. They believe they have a solid product and will build upon that.
4. We had an interesting conversation in regards to this. On one hand they have a small group of staff members that use their products and are sponsored. On the other hand they have another small group of players that use their product and are not sponsored. That list is impressive vs their paid staff list including Brooks Koepka. This was their first metal woods win in quite some time and they do expect the future to have more of that.

There was no magic calendar or "right time" interestingly enough. They had a global product. Its a really good product. So let's release it.
Mizuno makes some fantastic drivers. Generally you don't here much about them in the golf world.

I mean, kind of a big deal.
Enjoyed the answers JB. Did they provide any thoughts on the Range Days episode? I thought it was a very complimentary assessment for both drivers.

Not really. And we don’t ask for feedback from anybody honestly. We put it out there and if it’s offered (good or bad) we listen haha.

Do they integrate technology from their other sports lines into their golf line?
