Today, we are all left-handed golfers.
At a minimum, we’re all getting a real sense of what it’s like when you see a golf club you desperately want, only to find out they don’t make it for you.
I don’t like how it feels.
Such is the case with these stunning Masters Edition Mizuno Pro S-1 irons and T-1 wedges. I mean, just look at the ferrules (among other things).
Officially licensed
As you may have pieced together by now, official Masters licensing is harder to come by than a Sunday pin sheet. It’s why the early April flood of green and yellow Limited Edition “Augusta,” “1st Major,” and “Season Opener” gear has become a tradition absolutely unlike any other.
How many ways are there to say “The Masters” without saying “The Masters”?
Way more than most of us would have thought.
What you may not know is that Mizuno does have licensing rights and is one of the few companies that is allowed to produce merch that features the Masters logo in all of its yellow paint-filled glory.
The caveat in all of this is that Mizuno is only authorized to sell official Masters gear in Japan. While I’m reasonably confident none of this stuff is available for lefties, I’m 100% positive Mizuno isn’t going to sell it in the USA (or anywhere else that isn’t Japan).
Thanks for nothing, Augusta National.
If there’s any upside in this geographic gatekeeping, the release of the Masters Edition Mizuno Pro S-1 likely signals that Mizuno will release an “Azalea Edition” of the same irons when next April rolls around.
It’s the same thing, yet very much not the same thing.
The Mizuno Pro S-1 Masters Edition comes in 4-PW with a street price of roughly $2,100 US. Let’s call it $300 per iron—which is almost reasonable until you remember you can’t actually buy them here.
An azalea-themed True Temper DG S200 shaft and a theme-matched Golf Pride MCC grip complete the package.
Masters Editon Mizuno Pro T-1 Wedges
The matching Masters Edition T-1 wedges are offered in a set consisting of a 52-10 S Grind and 58-10 V Grind. It’s not exactly the full custom experience, but I’d wager a healthy percentage of those buying these have absolutely no plans to play them.
Then again, it’s the Japanese market, so who knows?
Mizuno Masters Edition irons and wedges are available for pre-sale now (at least in Japan). Pre-sale runs through September 21, and it’s more than likely the irons will be long sold out before the pre-sale period ends.
The actual shipping date is scheduled for late March of 2026, which is roughly when I’d expect Azalea Edition irons to ship (assuming this story is enough to manifest them into reality).
Is it everything we wanted? Probably not, but at least you have something new to drool over—from a distance of approximately 6,000 miles.
Plan B
For those of you who aren’t taken in by a splash of color and a fancy logo, Mizuno Pro S-1 Irons are shipping soon and Mizuno Pro T-1 wedges are available now, and they’re both plenty awesome without the green finish.
