Mizuno ST-X 220 Driver, for men
The ST-X 220 model offers higher spin than the ST-Z 220 and is suitable for players with slower swing speeds who need help with longer ball flight. The new 20-gram rear weight moved closer to the heel creates a deeper center of gravity for more efficient and longer drives. The ST-X 220 model is also available with an ultra-light Helium NanoCore shaft option for seniors or female golfers with lower swing speeds.
"For many golfers, the modern low-spin driver design preferred by advanced players is a serious distance killer," says Chris Voshall from Mizuno R&D. "Extra spin, draw bias, and higher ball flight in the ST-X 220 driver surprisingly add distance for many players."
The ST-X 220 model provides exceptional stability on off-center hits thanks to a 40% increase in the carbon area on the sole at the expense of titanium sections. The Mizuno X-Axis construction shifts the center of gravity to the back near the heel, promoting a higher launch angle and draw ball flight. The high flexibility of the SAT2041 Beta Ti face and improved aerodynamics with CORTECH technology ensure maximum energy transfer from your swing to the ball.
Mizuno Harmonic Impact Research tuned the sound to deliver vibration patterns that elite players associate with a "solid" feel. The optimized Wave Sole increases ball speed on low-face strikes, while four loft adjustment settings allow fine-tuning of launch angle and trajectory.
