“Grain Flow Forged HD 1025 Boron with a hydro-flow micro-groove face and five grinds (S/D/C/V/X, the V-grind new to the line). Steel-dominant players' wedge and the last of the T-series naming - Mizuno moved to the Pro T-1/T-3 lineup for 2025.”
The T24 (2023-24) is Mizuno's current tour wedge, a careful refinement of the well-liked T22 rather than a clean-sheet redesign. It adds Harmonic Impact Technology -- feel-tuned head geometry -- and a Spin-Weighted Blade Design that thickens the upper blade to raise the CG, plus QuadCut+ grooves, a tighter pattern Mizuno says lifts spin on all shots, and carryover HydroFlow micro-grooves for wet performance. The big change is five bounce-specific grinds: S (high bounce, limited relief), D (mid bounce, moderate relief), C (mid/high bounce, generous relief), the new V (high bounce, aggressive relief built from tour feedback for square and open faces) and X (low bounce, aggressive relief for advanced players). Finishes span satin chrome, raw and Blue Ion.
A highly-rated current tour wedge -- Golf Digest, Golf Monthly, Golfalot and Plugged In Golf all covered it as a top-tier compact option rivalling Vokey and Cleveland's tour models -- but it is a mainstream in-market product, not scarce or collectible. Being good and current is 'notable,' not cult; cult status would require scarcity or legend it does not have.
For skilled ball-strikers -- roughly single-digit to mid handicaps -- who want premium forged feel, a compact tour look and the ability to shape and open the face, and who will get fit into the right of five grinds. The V grind suits players who open the face a lot; X suits steep, firm-turf advanced players; S/C suit fuller-swing and softer-turf deliveries. A forgiveness-seeking higher handicapper should look at the S-series or a cavity/game-improvement wedge instead.
Competes head-on with Titleist Vokey SM9/SM10, Cleveland RTX 6 ZipCore and TaylorMade MG4 in 2023-25. Within Mizuno it is the tour-premium tier above the value S23, a direct evolution of the T22 (co-developed lineage with Luke Donald), with the V grind added specifically from tour-player feedback. It sits below Mizuno's Pro-branded T-1/T-3 wedges introduced later.
Low-mid, by design. The T24's Spin-Weighted Blade Design deliberately RAISES the CG for a more penetrating, tour-preferred flight and feel -- the opposite of a forgiveness-first low-CG wedge -- so it rewards a clean, controlled strike. Its versatility comes from the five-grind matrix (the new V grind in particular helps open-face and square shots off varied turf), which is where a fitted golfer gains consistency. Off-center and mis-judged-turf strikes are still punished; this is a shot-maker's wedge.
Calibrated across the whole catalog — a tour blade scores low here on purpose; it means control, not ease.
As Mizuno's newest tour wedge at the 2026 cutoff, the T24 holds value strongly: realistic private-party pricing is roughly $90-140 per wedge, near retail for clean satin-chrome or Blue Ion examples, less for worn grooves. New/Tour-Issue examples (e.g. Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 builds) still list at or above retail on eBay. Reconditioned-retail overstates private value as usual; no appreciation, just slow depreciation.
