What we say...
We review the Mizuno ST-Z 230 fairway wood, the brand’s single-model fairway wood offering.
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 is a mid-to-low spinning, high launching, adjustable fairway wood.
While many brands now have three fairway wood offerings aiming to target a variety of golfers, Mizuno feel the ST-Z 230 can be all things to all men. Although it was developed hand in hand with Mizuno’s tour advisors, it’s mid-sized and playable for all levels.
Utilizing a high-energy MAS1C steel face boosted by Mizuno’s CORTECH Chamber, it delivers exceptional ball speeds and a powerful, solid sensation at impact.
The carbon composite crown offers a low center of gravity and stability while the expanded front-to-back weighting delivers consistent launch characteristics.
The Quick Switch hosel offers 4 degrees of adjustability.
“The elevated ball of the CORTECH Chamber is a great addition to the ST-Z fairway woods, but the stability might be the real stand-out,” says Chris Voshall. “They feel like they are on tracks through impact.”
The ST-Z 230 fairway wood is available as a 3-wood and 5-wood for right-handed golfers, and as a 3-wood only for left-handers.
The ST-Z 230 fairway woods were launched alongside a range of Mizuno ST-230 drivers and ST-Z 230 hybrids which also feature the CORTECH Chamber.
