About this product
The Mizuno ST-Z 230 5-Wood is a right-handed fairway wood with 18 degrees of loft, featuring a Kai'li 70s graphite shaft in stiff flex. This single club is part of Mizuno's ST-Z 230 series, known for its Japanese craftsmanship. The club is designed for golfers seeking a high-launching, forgiving fairway wood. It comes with a black and blue color scheme and is a new model from Mizuno.
Our take
When comparing the ST-Z 230 5-wood to other fairway woods, its 18-degree loft positions it as a higher-lofted option, which can aid in launching the ball high and landing softly. The stiff Kai'li 70s shaft suggests it's aimed at players with moderate to fast swing speeds who want control. However, the 5-wood loft may overlap with hybrids or 4-woods in some bags, so golfers should consider their gapping. The Japanese origin implies premium build quality, but the price reflects that. This club suits players who prioritize versatility and forgiveness over raw distance.
