Luke wins in Japan with MP-64! Srixon's new ball introduced in Japan!

Luke Donald was in Japan for the 2012 Dunlop Phoenix Open in Miyazaki Prefecture (Southern Island of Japan).
 
It is a tournament where many of the world's top players go to Japan and play during the off season:

Luke cruised to a win with a wire to wire finish using his Mizuno MP-64 irons which he helped design.
 
You can customize your own MP-64 with custom shaft, grips, length, lie, loft at fairwaygolfusa.com:
 
 
It was Luke's first win in Japan.
 
Luke played:
MP Fli-Hi Utility Iron (#2)
MP-64 Iron (3-9P)
MP-T4 wedge (54deg)
MP-T11 wedge (60deg)
 
 
@ Srixon Japan
 
Srixon has introduced its new Z-Star ball in Japan.  The new ball is scheduled to launch in February of 2013.

This is what they say:
 
Tommy Nakajima:  "I can now out drive younger players!"
Ryo Ishikawa: "I can get more spin out of roughs!"
 
The new ball is designed to improve:
  • Softer feel
  • Spin Control
  • Stronger in to the wind
Srixon Japan is forecasting that their Z-Star ball sales will grow by 20% globally.
 
Can't wait to hit it!

Luke Donald switches to MP-64 irons @ Barclay! Titleist 913D is forgiving! Angry Birds logo on Srixon Balls!

Luke has made the switch.  I will make the switch.
Ever since the MP-33, Luke and I seems to be playing the same clubs.
Our skills are night and day.
 
 
Mizuno MP-64 irons are HOT!  We get inquiries everyday for information.
We are creating a page with all the customizing information to let  you know to help you customize the irons to your game.
New shafts, length options, grip options, loft and lie.
They all need to be adjusted to make the clubs work for you and not the other way around.
 
Also got a chance to hit the new Titleist 913D products yesterday!
 
 
913D drivers have an improved face technology which produces faster ball speed. 
Modification of the positioning of the CG to the neutral axis of the club for more forgiveness.
 
Yes! A forgiving Titleist driver!
 
I have always thought of Titleist as more focused on workability (which generally reduces forgiveness) but this one is different!
 
Can't wait to let you know of more information!
 
 
We now have Angry Birds logo on any Srixon Golf Balls available!
 
Add a little fun in your game!
I know some of you are playing the game on the tee box while waiting for the hole to clear!
 
Maybe the Red Bird can knock your playing partners ball out of play! : )
 
Enjoy!
