Posted June 27, 200717 yr comment_136706 The new Mizuno MP Craft 460 is another top notch driver thats Japan only, Took it to the range the other day and hit it side by side against my gamer EPON 380 and my backup EPON 460 and must say its a really good club. Its a little too large for my eye but its forged feel is pretty soft unlike many drivers on the market. I would select the MP425 over this bigger version myself but both cant take me away from my EPON's. The MP Craft's face angle and lie angle can be adjusted by a skilled club maker who has a bending machine that can fit its large volume. Enjoy the pics.
June 28, 200717 yr comment_136715 Chris, Is the face angle square by default? Also, does it feel any harder or softer compared to the Craft 425? Thanks! -Andrew

June 28, 200717 yr comment_136729 That looks really solid. No gimmicks. Just club. I like that. And it can be adjusted for lie! And face angle! Wow!

I can't tell if its dark blue or black. The bottom side seems to have a blueish tint to it. As soon as I recover from the last ho-a-thon i'm going to order one of these up with a Roddio. Thanks for the pics Chris.

I noticed a price drop on the JPX, therefore I'd really like to know the differences, and also how the stock Quad shaft performs.
July 9, 200717 yr comment_137351 and also how the stock Quad shaft performs. One of the hottest shafts in JP right now. And the 1st shaft ever offered by Miz as an after-market shaft. There are quite a few Players under contract with Competitors putting the shaft in their Drivers. Imagine if you will a TM or Titleist driver sporting a Miz shaft
July 12, 200717 yr comment_137560 There are actually two versions of the Quad shaft, the normal Quad that is stock on many of the Mizuno drivers then the Quad Butt Standard which is the higher end shaft that competes with Axiv, Roddio and Diamana etc... The feedback on this new 460 Craft has been very very positive, the critics only greeted the 425 Craft with lukewarm reviews saying it was far to hard a driver to hit for the average golfer. Popular with the pros but not really anyone else. The 460 however has been designed differently with a far larger sweetspot, different weight placements focused on producing on distance and boring trajectory...
August 15, 200717 yr comment_139426 Has anyone put the 460 Craft into play....curious to hear some reviews. What is the "technology" with the MP Craft 460? Thanks!
August 15, 200717 yr comment_139428 Looks very similar to my old Launcher comp but with higher launch angle. Looks VERY good!!! God Bless Jer
August 16, 200717 yr comment_139442 I will definitely find either a 425 or a 460 at some point; I've been waiting to bag another Mizzy driver ever since the 300M days. Doe's anyone know the face angles? Since we never see adjustments in lie angle on drivers what would happens to the loft (if anything at all) if you decide to flatten the lie angle?
