The newest iron from the makers of the most esteemed golf clubs in the world is designed for players of all skill levels, bringing modern launch, forgiveness and distance to its classic Miura profile
SCOTTSDALE, AZ – Miura Golf, manufacturer of the world’s most meticulously designed golf clubs, today introduced its newest iron, the PI-402. The advanced, innovative design from Miura’s craftsmen was created for players of all skill levels to help with launch, stability, ball speed consistency, and increased distance.
The PI-402 artfully blends contemporary distance with Miura’s timeless aesthetic and feel. It features a resilient 3mm Chromoly steel face, hot-rolled for elasticity, and consistent ball speed across the entire face. Coupled with 35g of tungsten, which is strategically positioned low behind the impact zone, the PI-402 delivers effortless launch and supreme stability.
In creating the PI-402, Miura held firm to its core principle that they will never introduce a new product unless it improves upon its predecessor. In comparison to the PI-401, the PI-402 features a more compact face length and increased heel height, resulting in a sophisticated, classic look at address not often seen in this category.
“Achieving greater distance is perhaps the most common goal of every golfer, which is why we designed the PI-402 to be effective for players of all skill levels,” said Anthony Newville, President, Miura Golf. “Every element of the PI-402 is designed to combine classic aesthetics with modern performance, showcasing Miura’s commitment to craftsmanship and precision engineering.”
Another defining feature of the PI-402 is the new Kissaki Sole. Drawing inspiration from the tip of a traditional Japanese sword known as “Kissaki”, the PI-402 has an advanced camber sole engineered to balance effective bounce through contact. With a maximum sole width of 22mm, it complements a wide range of swing paths and attack angles, enhancing forgiveness on off-center strikes.
“The idea behind the PI-402 is to pair resilient face material with low, purposeful weighting and a sole shape that is engineered to perform across a wide range of swing types,” said Kevin O’Connell, EVP, Sales & Strategy, Miura Golf.“The result is higher launch and added stability, all while preserving the refined feel and consistency expected from Miura.”
Miura has also introduced a TPU vibration control plate in the PI-402 which enhances sound and feel at impact while maintaining stability across the face, especially on mishits. The plate helps soften harsh vibrations and tunes the feedback a golfer receives, providing a connected and responsive feel with every strike.
“Evident in every detail of the PI-402 is Miura’s commitment to deliver an iron in the Players Distance category that maintains a refined look and feel,” said Hoyt McGarity, CEO & President of 8AM Golf. “Every PI-402 will be held to the enduring standard required to bear the Miura logo.”
The PI-402 irons are available in 4 to Pitching Wedge and Gap Wedge. For more information, visit www.miuragolf.com.
