The Japanese sporting goods company Mizuno began manufacturing golf equipment in the United States in 1984. Its high-performance irons and woods have been used by PGA professionals such as Tiger Woods and Loren Roberts. The now-retired Mizuno T-Zoid T3 irons were originally produced in 1999 and were one of the first models to contain a titanium-insert clubface.
Clubs
The Mizuno T-Zoid T3 titanium iron set features the standard 3-iron through pitching wedge. In addition, you can purchase both a 1-iron and 2-iron, as well as a gap wedge and sand wedge. Long irons have become somewhat antiquated with the evolution of the hybrid fairway wood, according to Learn About Golf, but some golfers still prefer the workability of a 1-iron and 2-iron.
Loft
The loft of a golf shot affects both its trajectory and distance. Lofts in the Mizuno T-Zoid T3 Titanium irons range from 18 degrees in the 1-iron to 56 degrees in the sand wedge. Lofts increase at increments of 3 to 6 degrees between clubs, resulting in about a 10-yard difference in distance from one club to the next.
Lie
The lie angle of a club is a measure of the angle between the sole of the club and the ground, Purely Golf says. Lie angle can affect the accuracy of your shots, and the lie angle can be custom fit to match your height and swing style. Lie angles in the Mizuno T-Zoid T3 Titanium irons range from 58.5 degrees in the 1-iron to 63 degrees in the sand wedge. Lie angles increase .5 degrees with each club.
Length
The length of a golf club can affect distance and accuracy. Longer golf clubs generally produce more distance, but can make it more difficult to control the shot's direction. Lengths in Mizuno T-Zoid T3 Titanium irons range from 40.5 inches in the 1-iron to 36 inches in the sand wedge. Lengths decrease .5 inches between irons 1 through 9, and .25 inches between the wedges. Like lie angle, club length can be custom fit to match your height.
