Miura IC-602 irons now available in Black IP finish

Published

on

Last year, Miura released its IC-602 hollow-body irons, which are widely regarded as delivering distance, forgiveness, and, of course, amazing feel. It isn’t easy combining high-tech multi-piece irons with the iconic feel players expect from a Miura iron, but Shinei Miura made it a top priority.

While known for blades and cavity back irons Miura built the IC-602 as an iron for players of all skill levels who want to add distance and forgiveness to their bag.

“The feedback we received from our customers regarding the creation of our new hollow body iron, was that they had no expectations about Miura being the longest one around, but rather would be loyal to the brand providing we deliver a sound and feel consistent with our forged models,” said Shinei Miura. “This epiphany allowed my design process on the IC-602 to become laser focused.”

IC-602 irons start out using an 8620 carbon steel body that gives a soft, responsive feel and it paired with a chromium molybdenum steel in the face for added flexibility. Miura adds tungsten weight out in the toe in order to provide a deeper center of gravity and increase launch in the irons. In the wedges Miura trades out the chromium molybdenum for  S35C steel in the pitching and gap wedges for increased consistency and durability in the scoring clubs. Miura then injects a polymer into the cavity of the IC-602 to dampen vibration and create the sound and feel you demand from an iron with the Miura name stamped on it. A matte Black IP finished is then applied to the iron in order to create a stealthy look that creates no glare from the bright sun.

With the IC-602, Miura engineers combined sole length and bounce to create the Miura Versatile Sole (MVS) that ensures positive turf interaction. The leading edge on the MVS sole creates more consistent contact near the center and the trailing edge helps get the club through the turf efficiently and quickly regardless of swing or conditions.

Miura IC-602 Black IP irons are available in 3-iron through gap wedge right now. The price is $390 per club — $2,730 for 4-PW.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
