1. Look
Some may not think the look of a club has anything to do with why you should purchase it. I find that if you don't like the look of the club, you won't have full confidendence when you are looking down at it ready to strike the ball. The Mizuno wedges look great. They bring a fresh design to a club that normally has been pretty boring for the past 25 years. They have 4 different types you can purchase, Raw Haze, Black Nickel, Chrome, Raw Black Ox. The version I purchased was the Raw Haze. The color is amazing on it, it's somewhat pearlescent in the sun, changing color based on the angle. Over time though, the club will rust. When I look down at the club, I see great classic wedge style, similar to Cleveland, yet the color sets it apart and gives me all confidence that it belongs in my hands. The rusting is a big part of why I purchased this club. I play in the evening after work when the sun is coming down at an angle and can reflect off your club and blind you. Wit the rusting though, that goes away.
2. Quality
Some people put a lot of stock in brand, I do to a point, but not always. Mizuno has been making clubs for golf professionals for over 25 years and is on and off the number 1 blade played on the tour. If that doesn't tell you something about their quality, I don't know what will. The wedges are "grain flow forged" with the exception of the mp t series of wedges. Taken directly from Mizuno's US website, "Mizuno's Patented Grain Flow Forging™ process enhances the flow and tightness of the grains in the metal, maximizing the strength of the clubhead without sacrificing the soft feel, and ensuring greater consistency from club to club and set to set." After playing the club for a few rounds you start to understand what they are talking about. These wedges do not feel like the bargain basement $30 wedges that feel like they could break every time you hit them. They are from a longstanding sports enthusist company that stands behind their work.
3. Feel
For as long as I can remember, I have been playing Cleveland wedges. They are great and never thought I would find something that had softer feel or quicker action on the green. I was wrong. With my 60 degree Raw Haze wedge in my hand, I can stop the ball on a dime and feel every minute detail of the ball striking the clubhead. Normally I just dismiss the hype put out there by club companies and their catch phrases. With the grain flow technology though, the hype is true.
4. Price
This is where it gets tricky. I'm a big cheapskate when it comes to purchasing clubs. I'm certain that I will eventually get banned from stores like Austads for going in and using their hitting simulator for the past 4 years or so and never once having purchased a club from them. With that said, I look high and low for the best possible price on clubs I can find. With the newness of the Raw Haze, I was hesitant to even start the hunt. Normally it takes around a year or so for clubs to lose their newness factor and people to start selling them cheap on ebay or stores to drop their prices because companies are coming out with newer models. I bought this wedge for $70 new on ebay, what a deal!! All of you who know wedges, a new one can run you anywhere from $70 - $150. I was surprised when I found this club for so cheap. I can only assume that not many people have tried this club, thus the price

High quality lenses and sturdy frame...
1 of 1 found this helpful I own about 7 pairs of Oakley sunglasses, this being my second pair of Flak Jackets (other set is the 2.0). This pair will be used mainly for driving and golf. The G30 iridium lenses are very good high contrast lenses that help pick up a lot of detail, especially when golfing. I had the chance to test them out this week at one the the best courses in the state (Wildhorse Golf Course, Gothenburg, NE). Taking them on and off to see the difference was pretty amazing. The suttle color change and the amount of detail is pretty impressive. I also really like the white frames. If you are someone who likes to match lenses to rubber pieces, the white gives a good alternate color that goes with anything. I also bought a set of Jade Iridium lenses and some blue rubber pieces to alternate with. All and all, you can't go wrong with the Flak Jackets, especially the XLJ lenses for width and coverage of viewable areas.
