Who It's For

Good fit if you...

  • Want a counterbalanced feel, with more weight under the hands
  • Want lower launch and spin than the standard Dark Waves Blue
  • Like an even, medium bend profile from butt to tip
  • Swing up to about 105 mph: Mitsubishi fits the 60 series from under 80 mph

Not the right fit if you...

  • Want a mid launch and mid spin: the standard Dark Waves Blue is rated mid/mid
  • Want a lighter 50 series: we sell the CB in 60 and 70 only
  • Need TX flex: it is made in R, S and X only

How It Plays

Mitsubishi's chart rates the Dark Waves Blue CB low-plus launch and low-plus spin, with medium butt, medium mid and medium tip and a high kick point. Its text describes it as mid-launching and low-spinning.

The CB moves material toward the handle. Mitsubishi says this adds stability and weight under the hands so you can move the club head faster. MR70 carbon fiber adds strength, and Super Low Resin Content prepreg is used for feel and durability in the tip.

The 60 series weighs 62 to 67 g with 4.1 to 4.2 torque, and the 70 series 72 to 76 g with 3.8 torque.
