When you think of forged irons, Mizuno is one of the first names that comes to a golfer’s brain. Mizuno has been considered a leader in forging for decades now. The company’s latest Grain Flow Forged HD creation is the Pro S-3 iron. The Mizuno Pro S-3 is designed for highly skilled players who want that soft Mizuno forged feel with the ability to precisely work the ball around the course.

Using their Grain Flow Forged HD technology in Japan, the Pro S-3 is crafted from 1025E Pure Select Mild Carbon steel. When you put those two together and then pair it up with Mizuno’s copper underlay, you will be getting an iron that offers exceptional softness as well as a great responsiveness on all shots. Mizuno spent lots of time refining the iron to ensure vibrations are managed to give a smooth and solid feel.

Mizuno sought to design the Pro S-3 irons with the most discerning players in mind. We saw Adam Schenk with an early set in play at the Sanderson Farms Championship in October of last year on the PGA Tour. A thin topline and a more compact head length give the Pro S-3 irons a tour-inspired look. Mizuno’s goal was to create an iron that looks sleek and classic without any bulk. The heads overall have straighter and more edgy lines with the shorter irons looking a little more boxy than the long irons.

Another big story is the new sole that Mizuno designed for the Pro S-3, the Triple Cut Sole. It starts with a beveled leading edge that allows the iron’s leading edge to get down under the ball for more solid strikes. The trailing edge of the sole also features some relief ground into it for easy release as the club leaves the turf and better control during impact. Finally the new sole geometry that was created to give the iron consistency in any playing condition.

Mizuno Pro S-3 irons are meant for the skilled golfer who is looking for a timeless iron that provides exceptional feel and precise control of any shot.
