Mizuno Announces Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi: Next Step in Tour Utility Irons

Mizuno announces a new iron. The Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi features an enlarged clubface and impressive distance.

Mizuno proudly presents the latest member of its renowned Mizuno Pro family: the Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi. This tour-proven utility long iron is designed to deliver higher ball speeds, a higher launch, and refined workability, all packed in a compact, tour-preferred profile.

Enlarged Clubface Enhances Distance

At the core of the new Fli-Hi is 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 entire face. A multi-thickness face, optimized through detailed Computer-Aided Engineering analyses, further enhances maximum COR, enabling explosive distance without sacrificing control.

To optimize launch conditions, Mizuno strategically positioned 26 grams of tungsten deep and far back in the clubhead. This precise weighting geometry not only increases the maximum flight trajectory but also adds stability and forgiveness. Combined with Mizuno’s innovative L-Face geometry—a groundbreaking welding technique that increases sole flexibility—the result is a thinner topline that maintains structural strength while generating extra speed at impact.

Focus on Feel

As with all clubs in the Mizuno Pro series, the Fli-Hi prioritizes feel. Thanks to Mizuno’s Harmonic Impact Technology, precisely engineered internal ribs finely tune vibration frequencies to produce a solid, tour-validated impact sensation. The acoustic profile has been adjusted to match previous Fli-Hi models, ensuring consistent feedback while implementing subtle enhancements demanded by tour players.

The Fli-Hi marks a design milestone as the first Mizuno iron featuring Nickel Chromoly 4335+ hollow-body technology. The heat-treated face possesses exceptional strength for explosive ball speeds, while the untreated, softer body allows the adjustment of loft and lie. This enables tour fitters to fine-tune performance precisely to individual player preferences.

Visually, the Fli-Hi captivates with a new gun-metal satin finish that highlights its technical character and reduces distracting reflections at address. The ball is cleanly framed, giving the impression of a more compact, confidence-inspiring clubhead.

Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi Bridges Irons and Hybrids

The Mizuno Pro Fli-Hi forms the ideal link between precise long irons and powerful hybrids. It targets players who demand distance and forgiveness without compromising feel, control, or aesthetics. With its tour-proven shaping and pioneering engineering, the latest Fli-Hi has the potential to become another favorite among Mizuno players.
