Miura launches new TC-202 forged irons
If you think of soft, forged irons, the first brand name that usually comes up is Miura. Founded by Katsuhiro Miura in 1957, Miura has been one of the most respected Japanese forging houses in all of golf. Miura prides itself on precision and crafting some of the best feeling and looking golf clubs a player can hit. It started with the CB 57, then moved to the TC-201, and both irons were cult classics, loved by feel players.

Miura didn’t forget its roots with the new TC-202 as engineers put feel as one of the highest priorities when designing a new iron, which is forged from high-end S20C soft carbon steel. But the new TC-202 adds a little technology update in the cavity in the form of the T-Weight Bar. This part of the cavity places the right amount of mass in the right spots to ensure each iron has the correct weight placement. Getting the weighting right and adjusting the T-Weight Bar in each iron will help the TC-202 keep spin more consistent, give better trajectory control, and add some forgiveness to the head.

The T-Weight Bar will flow with the set and move more mass lower in the heads of the long irons, then shift up in the middle of the set, and finally go as high as it can in the short irons. Each iron is optimized for the right flight in order to let golfers get the most out of each club. If you look a the sole of the irons, you can see that Miura used their Y-Grind to enhance turf interaction and help the TC-202 produce more consistent center contact strikes. Both the leading edge and trailing edge of the sole have relief to get through the turf quickly and without excessive digging. The highly acclaimed offset and face progression from the TC-201 were kept with the new irons.

Miura is offering the new TC-202 in 3 through gap wedge in right hand. Right now, the irons are only available in their chrome finish which should reduce glare with the matte finish.

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

Miura’s TC – 202 irons are a great addition. Keeping the feel, they’ve added tech like the T – Weight Bar. With good specs and reasonable pricing, they’re a solid choice for golfers seeking better control and forgiveness.

Reminds me of the CB 57 with variable weight bar in the cavity. Still gaming these since 2016. I doubt these could feel any better, and not likely to find out at $350/club not including up rated shafts!
