Titleist T200 and T350 Irons
The Titleist T350 clubhead features hollow body construction that gives the club that explosive power with an enlarged“ hot” area on the clubface.

Mizuno has taken its proven method of increasing the power and speed of the clubs with its Nickel Chromoly metal and coupled it with a new CORTEC design.
