yungkory Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 It's no secret that since I was picked to test the JPX 900 last year, I've become a huge Mizuno fanboy. When we were planning our trip I wanted to go to one of their flagship stores and was able to visit one today! Interestingly, their offering is different in the Japan market. No MP-18 SC, and they have an entirely different head called "deep cavity." Further, you can customize the finish on your heads through their Mizuno GCF Shop! Those JPX Platinum balls are $77 waow.

STUDque Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Really cool pictures. I'll probably never make it to this store so thanks for sharing! Did you get to roll the putters at all? Or hit anything in the store for that matter.

Or hit anything in the store for that matter. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Played with the MP putter line, but that was it. The fitting bays were in use and it appeared to be by appointment only. I was hoping to get a putter cover or something for a souvenir, but the putter cover went on like a sock and I'm not a fan of that. The MP putter cover was more what I'm used to, but it was Velcro 🤢 Store was super rad, it was interesting to see the difference between US and Japan market. Since all of the heads are made in Japan, I guess they grind different markings "MP-18 SC/MMC" in foreign markets and "Mizuno Pro 118/518/918" here, and there are no SC models, the 918 reminds me if the old T-Zoids. Also, you can customize the finish from the factory!
