The New Kissaki Sole
A defining feature of the PI-402 is the introduction of the new KISSAKI SOLE—an advanced camber sole engineered to balance effective bounce throughout the swing. With a maximum sole width of 22mm, it accommodates a wide range of swing paths and attack angles while improving forgiveness on off-center strikes. Inspired by “Kissaki” (切っ先)—the precision tip of a Japanese sword—the sole geometry is designed to optimize turf interaction, allowing the club to glide smoothly through impact for players of all swing types.
Tungsten Weight
To further enhance performance, the PI-402 incorporates 35 grams of tungsten positioned low behind the impact zone. This strategic placement helps promote effortless launch while improving stability through impact. The added mass low in the head increases forgiveness and helps maintain ball speed across a wider portion of the face, delivering distance with remarkable consistency.
“Miura has always believed that more golfers can play its clubs than people might expect, and the PI-402 is a great example of that. It’s lighter, easier to turn over, and built with the forgiveness, launch, and distance a wide range of players need. At the same time, a stronger player can easily see value in something like a 4-iron at the top end of the bag to help solve a gapping issue. That’s what makes the PI-402 so versatile. It’s a club that can fit a very wide range of golfers with confidence.”

Face Technology
At the core of the PI-402 is a resilient 3mm Chromoly steel face that has been hot-rolled to maximize elasticity. This advanced construction helps produce consistent ball speeds across the entire face, giving players reliable distance even when contact isn’t perfectly centered. The result is a powerful yet controlled launch that provides both confidence and performance from tee to green.
“You can still work this club, but historically in the players distance and game improvement categories, it’s really more about forgiveness, hitting it straight, and adding distance. It’s not built around shot shaping first, but it’s still surprisingly easy to move the ball when you want to. From a fitter’s perspective, it really checks the boxes you want to see.”
