Technology/Overview-
The new Mizuno MX-700 driver is the talk of the town, so to speak. The new Mizuno 460cc driver is a wide body geometry shaped driver that pushes the CG toward the back… way back. And CG is not he only thing going for this driver. The face incorporates a Ti-9 titanium alloy that is designed with a grain structure that really allows this driver to improve ball speed especially on off center hits.
Mizuno offers “Power Hull” body construction utilizes internal reinforcements for powerful sound and feel.

“This is just a cannon, deadly long and it looks comfortable at address”
“will give a lot of players confidence”
Pros/Positives-
This driver exudes confidence at address, I just plain like the looks of this driver. Mizuno has traditionally catered to the more accomplished player. Until now. In the case of the Mizuno MX-700, they broke the mold by offering the recreational player a nice high launch, low spin driver that will be sure to fare well.
Cons/Negatives-
Really the only one we came up with is the head fitting is not interchangeable. Therefore, since there is an extensive custom shaft selection including Fujikura, Grafalloy and Mitsubishi, it makes it difficult to test.
Overall Rating-
The Mizuno MX-700 should do well. It earned a Silver rating from Golf Digest for drivers under $350. “A “Hot Metal” face and geometric body design combine to create Mizuno’s most powerful and most forgiving driver ever,” Straight from Mizuno. Yep, put this one on your short list this spring to take a good long look at.
The Mizuno MX-700 driver has become one of my favorite clubs in my bag. It’s large head design, low center of gravity and titanium face make it a driver that provides ultimate distance with a considerable amount of forgiveness.
an amazingly snazzifying driver
Was looking to replace my TM Burner. Thought the MX700 was an impulsive buy but it turned out to be a real surprise. Had good long drives (ball rolls on landing) with minimum dispersion. Had nice solid sound on impact. Only con? Have to tee up the ball slightly higher to get the high launch. Conclusion-a great driver!
