“Balanced fairway partner to the ST-Z driver line. Rung-2 standard.”
The stable, low-spin fairway wood in Mizuno's 2022 metalwood refresh, built around Mizuno's third-generation MAS1C face — described by Mizuno as its most powerful fairway face to date — paired with a CORTECH multi-thickness face pattern and a composite crown to lower CG and raise MOI. Golf.com's ClubTest and Golf Monthly both tested it favorably, describing a tour-inspired address look, a soft-yet-firm feel, and a distinct 'thwoop' impact sound, with stable, low-spin, high-MOI performance that testers found easy to fade off the tee as a driver alternative on tight holes. It came in 15/18/21 degree lofts at a UK RRP of £279.
Drew some of the most enthusiastic specific praise of any club in this Mizuno metalwood family — Golf.com's testers called it 'right up there with the best of them' and one of the most forgiving fairway woods available that year — but that praise stayed within the normal review cycle rather than building lasting demand. It is a genuinely well-liked, well-reviewed fairway wood, not a chased or collectible one.
Mid-to-faster swing speed players who want a stable, penetrating, low-spin fairway wood that is still easy to fade intentionally as a driver alternative off the tee on tight holes. A player wanting maximum launch and forgiveness above all else should compare against the ST-X Fairway from the same family.
Part of Mizuno's 2022 metalwood refresh, competing against Titleist's TSi2/TSi3, Callaway's Rogue ST Max, and TaylorMade's Stealth fairway woods — all high-MOI, composite-crown fairway woods of the same generation.
Classified 'standard'/rung-2, positioning it as the lower-spin, more stable counterpart to the higher-launch ST-X Fairway — though independent reviews (Golf.com) specifically called it 'one of the most forgiving fairway woods out there' thanks to its composite crown and high-MOI CORTECH face.
Calibrated across the whole catalog — a tour blade scores low here on purpose; it means control, not ease.
Private-party sales in 2026 commonly run $100–$170, broadly in line with other 3-4-year-old premium OEM fairway woods; original retail was around $280.
Reading is one thing — hitting is another. Book a bay and see the numbers for yourself before you buy anywhere.
