VANCOUVER: British Columbia-Japanese golf-club manufacturer Miura Golf-which has been making the world’s highest-quality forged irons for 44 years-is officially introducing its MG Hybrids, the company announced today.
The launch of the MG Hybrids is exciting news for golfers, as Miura Golf-which has never had a fixed time frame for new-product introductions-only debuts new models when the quality of new technological advances demands it.
The MG Hybrids will be available in HB3 (20 degrees of loft) and HB4 (23 degrees of loft) models made from SUS455 steel in an I.P. Black finish. MG Hybrids-which carry a suggested retail price of $299 per club with graphite shafts and $279 per club with steel shafts and can be tested by visiting www.miuragolf.com to locate the closest Miura dealer.
“The days of the ‘three-through-pitch’ automatic set are over,” says Adam Barr, President of Miura Golf. “Players are putting more thought into how they will configure their bags. So hybrids become even more important as supporters of the irons. The new MGs are designed with the recognition that hybrids can be used for everything from covering a lot of ground on par-5s to pinpoint shots into greens on long par-4s and par-3s. As the name ‘hybrid’ truly implies, these clubs play as multipurpose long-game tools golfers can rely on.”
Utilities aim to pinpoint targets in the same way as irons do. The MG Hybrid was born from consumer feedback. The blade-iron design provides a sense of security when aiming at the target, allowing more advanced players to better concentrate on their games rather than wondering where the ball will go. The club’s I.P. Black finish makes it appear more compact, resulting in increased player concentration at address.
The MG Hybrid follows through smoothly after impact thanks to Miura Golf’s new Circle Cut method sole shape in which a line cuts through the club’s sole, creating a stepped tier on the sole and the optimal center of gravity to provide the optimal ball trajectory for a hybrid iron.
The MG Hybrid mostly focuses on the blade’s height, not the head volume. The blade height is almost the same size as the height of the ball at 43mm. Thus, golfers at address can think of the MG Hybrid as an iron at address, and can hit the ball the same way as an iron. Plus, golfers also have an increased amount of relief at address.
