    I review the brand new 2022 Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi Utility 2 Iron providing my personal feedback on the looks, feel and performance using TrackMan4. This 2 iron hollow construction driving iron is a true fairway finder but providing fast ball speeds and easy to launch characteristics. Hit more fairways with this long iron replacement.

    It was a little large to go chrome. You’d be surprised what a good job the black does at concealing it.

    I'm not typically a driving iron person, and really not a black-iron person, I've moved to a Mizuno CLK20 16-degree Hybrid for that shot, but honestly, in black, with a graphite shaft, I could honestly put that in the bag

    ❇️ I just bought a preloved 2007 Mizuno Fli Hi forged 2 iron with a Aldila Hybrid stiff shaft ✅ it’s a old school forged 18 degree 2 iron ✅ I used some metal polish and it now looks super nice shiny ✨ chrome finish ❇️

    Black looks sleek and beautiful! This type of club is what I’ve been figuring out if I can put in the bag. Hybrids are easy to hit, but not as much control as a utility iron. Are you going to review the new cobra adjustable loft driving iron?

    I LOVE the black. My goal for my bag is to have ZERO polished chrome. I have ping 410 driver, 425 2 and 3h, 921 tour with kbs tour matte shafts. I may purchase this 2i and soon will finish with wedges in black with the same kbs shafts. Stealth everything! I love it.

  • @allahalibaba9063
    @allahalibaba9063 2 роки тому +2

    One thought of the black looking iron is so in the bag you can find it easier when going to a long iron over the 225 or so irons....Just a thought....

  • @chrisyoungrides
    @chrisyoungrides Рік тому +1

    I just bought the Fli Hi 3 and I love the black. It separates it in my bag as the club to grab off the fairway on long holes. I'm hitting it further than my fairway wood, so super happy.

    • @chadpeace5852
      @chadpeace5852 Рік тому

      Chris do you hit your 3 FlyHi further than a 5 wood? I’m debating on adding thr 2 FlyHi since i have a really hard time hitting a fairway wood off the deck

    • @chrisyoungrides
      @chrisyoungrides Рік тому

      @@chadpeace5852 I've actually added a 2 Fli Hi as well. So my bag is Driver, 16.5º fairway wood, 2 and 3 Fli Hi then the rest.
      Average distances for me now (50 year old, 16 hcp):
      Driver is 220-240m
      Fairway wood 200-215m
      2 iron 180-195m
      3 iron 160-175m
      I also use the 2 iron as a bit of an escape club if I need a low shot under branches.
      The caveat on that all is that I got fitted and had lessons.

    Mizuno Irons are just pure class & feel still play the MP20S , been looking for a 3 iron to feel the gap between 4 iron & 4 wood Mizuno have done it again love the look of the black look ,absolutely looks stealth looking the black sheep in the bag going to look sick in the tour bag 3 iron cant wait playing in Perth Australia lots of sun glare the black will take that away .

  • @joshbreslin4741

    @mollermads 2 роки тому +3

    Definitely would go with these for long irons and I would like to go back to using a 2 iron instead of driver. I am not sure about black because I want to blend it in with the rest of the irons using 3, 4 in hifli and then 5,6,7 in 225 and 8, 9 P in 221.

    I wouldn't say no! Always nice to have that classic chrome finish when stepping up to the tee and whipping out a long iron - particularly if it doesn't end up in the trees! I do think the black looks slick though, just not as slick as the 221 & 225 irons it would be in the bag with.

  • @andyf-d4222
    @andyf-d4222 2 роки тому +4

    It looks lovely, no real issue with the colour but I understand it's everyone's cup 'o tea. Think I'd still prefer a hybrid as miss hits suffer less than utility irons. Great review, Mike.

    If you can 4hit a 3 iron clean in the fairway beyond 200 yds., you don't need this and will just take-up space in your bag. Plus you'll probably just cry and ruin your day everytime paint is scratched by hidden stones or pebbles when taking divots in fairway
