“Launched alongside the ST-Z/ST-X 230 driver refresh with a matching fairway wood and hybrid per GolfWRX's launch coverage. Rung-1.”

Sold as the ST-X 220, this was the only fairway wood Mizuno brought to market in its 2022 ST-X/ST-Z metalwood refresh, launched alongside the ST-Z 220 and ST-X 220 drivers at a $229 retail. Its Ti811 titanium body carries a multi-thickness CORTECH face designed to keep ball speed high across a wider area of the face, while incremental internal weight is placed extremely low and deep to build in a slight draw bias and an easy, high launch. Mizuno positioned it for moderate swing speeds needing elevated launch and a controlled landing angle rather than for a better player wanting to flight the ball down; owner feedback on retailer sites repeatedly compares it favorably on price against bigger-name fairway woods of the same generation, with one buyer reporting a 10-yard carry gain switching from a Cobra Speedzone Xtreme.

A solidly reviewed, mass-market game-improvement fairway wood with no cult following of its own - the praise it drew centered on offering ST-series performance at a lower price than Mizuno's flagship ST-Z woods, a value story rather than a collectible one.

Fits moderate-swing-speed players who need help getting a fairway wood airborne with a slight draw bias; a better player who wants to work the ball both ways or prefers a lower, more penetrating flight would be better served by the ST-Z 220, its lower-spin sibling launched the same year.

• It retailed at $229 and was the sole fairway wood Mizuno released in its 2022 ST-X/ST-Z 220 metalwood generation.
• The Ti811 titanium body places incremental discretionary weight low and deep specifically to build in a slight draw bias.
• Its CORTECH face uses multiple thickness zones to keep ball speed high across a larger area of the face than a uniform-thickness face would allow.
• It was superseded after roughly a year by the ST-Z 230 fairway wood in Mizuno's 2023 refresh, which folded the fairway line back under the ST-Z name only.

Launched in 2022 alongside the ST-Z 220 and ST-X 220 drivers as Mizuno's answer to Callaway's Rogue ST and TaylorMade's Stealth fairway woods of the same season, it was replaced within about a year by the ST-Z 230 fairway wood in Mizuno's January 2023 refresh.

Used examples run roughly $85-$150 at 2nd Swing and comparable retailers against a $229 original retail - a typical depreciation curve for a one-generation-old mainstream fairway wood with no particular scarcity or demand premium.
