Miura Golf new IC-602 irons are designed for improved distance coupled with forgiveness, plus that iconic Miura feel and look.
Miura’s new IC-602 irons are yet another of imaginative designs manufactured with quality materials to precise performance standards.
Miura’s club designer, the legendary Shinei Miura has created an iron for better players that is both forgiving and produces added distance, but retains the traditional Miura look at address. The center of gravity was relocated to give improved launch angles and proper spin for control. The face angle progression and loft were optimized for each iron to improve consistency.
Players will also like the Miura Versatile Sole, stepped configuration where the leading part is higher than the trailing portion. This minimizes contact with the turf regardless of the attack angle.
“The feedback we received from our customers regarding the creation of our new hollow body iron, was that they had no expectations about Miura being the longest one around, but rather would be loyal to the brand providing we deliver a sound and feel consistent with our forged models,” said Miura. “This epiphany allowed my design process on the IC-602 to become laser focused.”
Miura Golf is part of 8AM Golf, a holding company owned by Howard Milstein, which also includes Golf Magazine, GOLF.com, the Nicklaus Companies, True Spec Golf and six other golf-related companies. Entertainer Justin Timberlake is also an investor in the company.
