The PP-Neo hybrid incorporates a raised internal weight that rests just above the sole. The 35-gram mass optimizes the center of gravity for shots that launch with ideal spin. The PP-Neo is offered in 21- and 24-degree lofts ($390). The new products are the seventh and eighth introduced by Miura this year since a majority interest in its North American distribution rights were acquired by the Howard Milstein family. Milstein is chairman, president and CEO of New York Private Bank & Company, the largest privately owned, family-run bank in the U.S. Miura COO Bill Holowaty recently explained the company’s expansion this way to Golf Digest. “I think that’s the influence Mr. Miura’s son Shinei has had,” he said. “There’s a real recognition that we need to pay more attention to categories like players’ cavity backs and game improvement irons and those clubs in between or in new categories. And that’s being said without saying that we’re going to neglect where we’ve really been strong in terms of forged clubs.”
