As a gear free agent, Justin Rose can choose the clubs he wants to play, and the irons he chooses have gear nerds drooling.
After spending last year with a split set of Titleist 620 CB long irons, Rose has now moved on to a full set of Miura irons split between the new TC-202 cavity backs and the MC-502 blades in the short irons.
That mixed iron set was chosen last week at the Farmers Insurance Open, when Rose finished second in the field in Strokes Gained: Approach en route to a seven-shot win.

The TC-202 is one of the newest additions to the Miura series, replacing the highly successful TC-201, the last Miura iron to win on the PGA Tour before Rose’s victory last summer at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.
A new T-Weight Bar in the rear cavity combines the heel-toe weighting that made the TC-201 so forgiving with the central mass distribution of the CB 57. By placing the mass just behind the sweet spot, the T-Weight Bar helps optimize ball flight control as well as the sound and feel of the TC-202.
The TC-202s also have a progressive center of gravity that gets lower as you move through the set. That’s why Rose chooses them for his 4-, 5- and 6-iron to help launch the ball into the air.
Meanwhile, his MC-502 short irons are a set of blades that focus on playability, two things that don’t usually go hand in hand. But the notch along the back of the iron moves the mass down where it is more useful, while keeping the club’s compact profile.
Miura MC-502 custom irons
New to the MC-502 is an increase in face progression (less offset), which has always been a welcome look for the better player. Additionally, a softer, more rounded topline and toe profile made their way from the sketchpad to the final product. The result is an iron that is easy to aim while offering an unparalleled level of confidence and playability. There were no compromises when it came to the new design. The sound, feel and performance that have defined Miura irons since 1957 epitomized the final product. MATERIALPremium S20C mild carbon steel FINISHSatin Chrome

Both irons feature Miura’s Y-Grind, which has a worn leading edge for better surface interaction.
