The wider sole and subtle perimeter weighting adds a nice dose of stability and forgiveness. Where the Mizuno Pro S-4 gets interesting, however, is in its loft structure. Like the Wilson XB irons, the S-4 loft matrix is noticeably weaker than those of standard player’s distance irons. The 7-iron clocks in at 34 degrees whereas a standard player’s distance iron is in the 29- to 30.5-degree range. If you tested the S-4 head-to-head with a TaylorMade P790 or PING i540, it won’t win on distance.

I’ve had the pleasure of playing golf over the holidays with both the Pro X and Pro S golf balls, and I’ve been majorly impressed by how both of them performed on the course. I’m a bigger fan of the Pro X because it suits my game more, but I still enjoy playing with the Pro S – read the full review here .

The shape on these irons is great, with a more compact look and a slightly shorter blade length compared to the Pro S-3 irons. The topline is thin, and the toe has a slightly sharper look to it that I think most better players will appreciate.

It's the Mizuno Pro S4 and this perhaps is the cleanest, best looking players cavity iron I've ever seen. I'm loving the feedback off the face. And today we're going to bring in Harrison Arnold to do some testing and give us the feedback on performance as well. Oh yeah. Oh, I like these, Drew.

Focusing solely on the Pro S (you can read the Pro X review here ), I’ve genuinely been blown away by how well this golf ball performs, considering its predecessor – the RB Tour – was very underwhelming in my eyes.

As a former, longtime Mizuno gamer, I hope the brand gets this sprawling lineup in check so there’s more spotlight for excellent offerings like the Pro S-3.
