Covid-19 may have put any purchasing ideas you had in March on hold. Now, it’s game on, and time to reassess your equipment needs. So, we’ve compiled the “Best in Show” from ClubTest 2020 to give you a refresher. These clubs are bold and beautiful, like the game itself. In this edition, we highlight Miura’s latest irons.
Why We Love Them
Miura TC-201 irons
If you’ve been searching for an iron that blends blade performance with cavity-back forgiveness, look no further than the TC-201. Miura’s do-everything sticks offer progressive weighting to amplify the benefits of each iron. A low center of gravity produces a towering launch in the long irons; the CG goes higher in the short irons for more control.
Miura MB-101 irons
A blade isn’t just a blade. If that was the case, Miura wouldn’t have spent seven painstaking years working on the MB-101. Discerning golfers will pick up on the refined musclepad and seamless transition from the hosel to topline. The sole was also made slightly thicker to improve interaction with the ground.
Miura CB-301 irons
When the words “hand forged” are attached to an iron, the general assumption is it must be a blade. And expensive. While Miura’s CB-301 isn’t cheap, you get plenty of bang for your buck. A sole and cavity with variable thickness provide the kind of speed you’d find in a game-improvement iron—but in a Tour-inspired profile with legendary Miura feel.
Why I Play It
“I’ve played Miura now for two seasons and they are, in my opinion, the best out there. The 201s have provided me with not only beautiful softness off the face but forgiveness. I have so much trust in these irons, which can’t help but give me confidence. The feel of these irons are like no other I’ve used. They will notbe leaving my bag anytime soon.” – LPGA pro Mel Reid
