All About The New Mizuno ST-Z And ST-X Woods
The all new line of Mizuno woods is out with the ST-Z and ST-X drivers as well as the ST-Z fairway woods, but what is actually new about these clubs?
Well, let’s go over each of these new clubs so you can see exactly what new technology and game improving features are jam packed into this new line!
ST-Z and ST-X Drivers
Let’s start out with the new drivers and look at what’s different between the two and discover which would work best for you.
Mizuno Golf ST-Z Driver
A balanced toe/heel carbon composite construction with deep central back weight – for a spin efficient, straight-line ball flight. Built upon the 2nd generation of Mizuno’s Forged SAT2041 Beta Ti face – for potent ball speeds and consistent performance over time.
Features:
HIGHLY RESILIENT FORGED SAT2041 BETA TI FACE
As a high strength Beta Ti, SAT2041 maintains its characteristics and resists micro fractures for longer than the commonly used 6-4 Ti.
NEW MULTI-THICKNESS CORTECH FACE STRUCTURE
Refined to maximize the return from Mizuno’s Beta Ti face. Ball speeds most noticeably improved low on the clubface.
‘DENSE’ OR SOLID FEEDBACK
The majority of Mizuno’s tour players expressed a preference for more dense feedback through impact. Mizuno’s engineers spent a year finessing the sound to a more muted, powerful tone.
Z AXIS DESIGN FOR STRAIGHT-LINE FLIGHT
Balanced use of carbon composite on the sole and deep central sole weight are biased towards a straight-line flight and low spin efficiency.
OPTIMIZED WAVE SOLE PLATE
Delivers an additional contribution to ball speed – low from the clubface.
WIDE, LOW FOOTPRINT
With neutral visual lie angle.
QUICK SWITCH ADJUSTABILITY
4 degrees of loft adjustability to fine-tune look and trajectory.
Availability
- Available in Men’s
- Available in Hand: Right & Left
- Available in Lofts:
- 9.5°
- 10.5°
Mizuno Golf ST-X Driver
A draw-biased carbon composite construction aided by a heel side sole weight. Built upon the 2nd generation of Mizuno’s Forged SAT2041 Beta Ti face – for potent ball speeds and consistent performance over time. Slower swing speeds will benefit from the J-Spec – incorporating an incredibly lightweight 39g MFusion graphite shaft.
Features:
HIGHLY RESILIENT FORGED SAT2041 BETA TI FACE
As a high strength Beta Ti, SAT2041 maintains its characteristics and resists micro fractures for longer than the commonly used 6-4 Ti.
NEW MULTI-THICKNESS CORTECH FACE STRUCTURE

‘DENSE’ OR SOLID FEEDBACK
The majority of Mizuno’s tour players expressed a preference for more dense feedback through impact. Mizuno’s engineers spent a year finessing the sound to a more muted, powerful tone.
X-AXIS DESIGN FOR DRAW BIAS
Expanded toe located carbon composite window, with heel located sole weight combine to produce a reliable draw bias.
OPTIMIZED WAVE SOLE PLATE
Delivers an additional contribution to ball speed – especially low from the clubface.
MORE COMPACT PROFILE
Slightly deeper back portion and more upright visual lie angle.
QUICK SWITCH ADJUSTABILITY
4 degrees of loft adjustability to fine-tune look and trajectory.
Availability
- Available in Men’s
- Available in Hand: Right
- Available in Lofts:
- 10.5°

Mizuno Golf ST-Z Fairway Woods
A throwback profile – with curves for the purist and performance for the pragmatist. Mizuno’s 3rd generation MAS1C face is Mizuno’s most powerful to date. A balanced package of low spin performance and stability – not common in most fairway woods. With adjustable hosel in both 3 and 5 wood.
Features:
MAS1C MARAGING FACE
With optimized CORTECH multi-face thickness. Our thinnest and hottest FW face to date.
ULTRA-LIGHTWEIGHT CARBON CROWN
Lowers the COG for better spin vs MOI performance.
RE-ENGINEERED WAVE TECHNOLOGY
Compact Wave design lowers the mass contribution allowing for higher MOI and lower Center of Gravity.
QUICK SWITCH 3 & 5 WOOD
Provides 4 degrees of loft and face angle adjustability.
