A recoil-shadow measurement of isomer decays in {sup 172}Hf has revealed many weak {gamma}-ray transitions. One of these is a sevenfold {ital K}-forbidden {ital E}1 transition from the {ital K}{sup {pi}}=8{sup {minus}} isomer ({ital T}{sub 1/2}=163 ns) to the {ital K}{sup {pi}}=0{sup +} ground-state band. The low hindrance factor for this transition in {sup 172}Hf is compared with the hindrance factors for other {Delta}{ital K}=8 {ital E}1 transitions.
