Miura Golf and Adam Scott officially launch new “AS-1” limited-release irons

Published

Miura Golf has officially announced that new “Miura AS-1” irons – in collaboration with Adam Scott – will be made available to the public as part of a limited release.

Scott first switched into a new 1-of-1 set of Miura irons at the 2022 Memorial Tournament. Initially, the irons were simply stamped with Scott’s personal brand logo on the back cavity, and he’s continued to play the irons since then. At the recent 2023 Players Championship, however, Scott revealed a similar set of custom Miura irons, except the new ones were stamped with the Miura logo on the sole and Katsuhiro Miura’s red Hanko stamp of approval on the back cavity.

Then, in a cryptic Instagram post last week, Scott seemed to announce that big news was coming on March 28.

Well, this is that big news: Scott’s irons are now officially available for purchase as part of a limited release, and customers will receive the irons (3-PW) in a custom commemorative box with a certificate of authenticity; the colors and design of the box are inspired by the blue lab coats that Miura’s craftsmen wear in the factory. While the exact number of sets available is yet to be determined, according to a Miura representative, it is “certainly the case that supplies are limited and finite.” Sets of the AS-1 irons are currently selling for $3,750 (with a $500 non-refundable security deposit), and the estimated shipping time is November 2023.

“Working with Miura-san, who is so knowledgeable and understanding, but is also willing to listen to my feedback so he can produce an iron that both he approves and is also perfect for me, is just amazing,” Scott said, according to a Miura press release. “Being able to see the process in person at the Miura factory really added to the confidence I have in playing this club on the tour.”

The irons are made with two distinctive design features: 1) a flatter sole for Scott’s preferred turf interaction, and 2) more offset to satisfy the look that Scott prefers at address.

“It has a been a real thrill and true honor for us to work with Adam on the AS-1 iron,” said Bill Holowaty, COO, Miura Golf, in a press release. “Visiting the Miura factory is a unique experience and I don’t think this was lost on Adam. Seeing the Miura forging process, steps 1 through 14, as well as the interaction between Mr. Miura and his sons, reinforced his knowledge that this collaboration would enable him to play his best golf with the best forged irons.”

Titleist GT280 mini driver after 3 rounds – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, one user has announced himself as a believer in the powers of Titleist’s GT280 Mini Driver, and is sharing the good news with other members.

User @dgarland chronicled:

“As the title states I have played 3 rounds with a Titleist GT280 mini driver and here are the results… If you have been contemplating trying one, definitely do. Stock Tensei Blue and set at standard loft and it’s legitimately hard to not put the ball in play with this. It is incredibly straight and even bad swings result in a usable shot. You will give up some distance but you will be in play. I have not attempted to hit it off the fairway yet but I rarely hit my 3 wood off the fairway either. At my home course there are two holes on the front 9 that are a really uncomfortable shot with the driver. One is a slight dogleg right where a draw (my normal shot) can run out of room fast and the other is a dogleg left with trees about 250ish straight off the tee, where a driver that doesn’t draw will get me into trouble. The mini driver has been perfect for both of them. I always step onto those tee boxes uncomfortable about the shot I need to play, but with this it makes it far easier to get the ball in play.

“Update: 2 for 2 again this morning in a 9 hole round.”

Members in the forum shared their thoughts on mini drivers, offering up their favorite models and whether or not they’re a proper fit for their home course/style of play. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

NorthMNgolfer: “I’m curious between this and the new TEC mini that was just released. But I’m waiting a mini that can be used from the fairway as well from time to time. Both look like great options.”
jLMN: “I played the GT280 last year and it’s a great club. My problem this year is I couldn’t justify keeping it in the bag when I would only use it 2-3 times per round. Perfect club for short par 4 tee shots. I didn’t trust it as well off the deck compared to the tee box.”
GolferPerson1: “I can only speak to the 280 but I’ve had no issues with it from the fairway. ”
