Mizuno announces a new iron. The Pro Fli-Hi features an enlarged face and impressive distance.
Mizuno proudly introduces the latest member of its renowned Mizuno Pro family: the Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi. Developed as a tour-proven utility long iron, the Fli-Hi is designed to deliver higher ball speeds, a higher launch, and refined workability, combined in a compact profile preferred by tour players.
Enlarged Face for Better Distance
At the core of the new Fli-Hi lies Mizuno’s most advanced face construction to date. The Contoured Ellipse CORTECH design increases the effective hitting area by 37%, resulting in higher ball speeds and more consistent performance across the face. A multi-thickness face, optimized through detailed Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) analyses, further boosts maximum COR and enables explosive length without sacrificing control.
To optimize launch conditions, Mizuno strategically placed 26 grams of tungsten low and far back in the clubhead. This precise weighting geometry not only raises the maximum ball flight but also enhances stability and forgiveness. Combined with Mizuno’s innovative L-Face geometry, a breakthrough welding technique increasing sole flexibility, the Fli-Hi achieves a thinner topline that maintains structural integrity while adding extra speed at impact.
Emphasis on Feel
As with all clubs in the Mizuno Pro series, feel is central to the Fli-Hi. Through Mizuno’s Harmonic Impact Technology, precisely engineered internal ribs tune vibration frequencies to produce a solid, tour-validated impact feel. The acoustic profile has been adjusted to previous Fli-Hi models to maintain consistent feedback while implementing the subtle refinements demanded by tour players.
The Fli-Hi also marks a milestone as Mizuno’s first iron with Nickel Chromoly 4335+ hollow-body technology. The heat-treated face delivers explosive ball speeds with exceptional strength, while the untreated, softer body allows adjustments in loft and lie, enabling tour fitters to tailor performance to individual player preferences.
Visually, the Fli-Hi features a new gun-metal satin finish that emphasizes its technical character and reduces distracting reflections at address. The ball is cleanly framed, giving the impression of a more compact and confidence-inspiring clubhead.
Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi Bridges Irons and Hybrids
The Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi is the ideal bridge between precise long irons and powerful hybrids. It targets players seeking distance and forgiveness without compromising feel, control, or aesthetics. With its tour-proven shape and groundbreaking engineering, the latest Fli-Hi has the potential to become a favorite among Mizuno players.
