Mizuno JPX923 Hot Metal Irons · Left handed · Steel · Regular · 4-PW,GW

The Mizuno JPX 923 Hot Metal irons are a great iron for any mid to high handicap golfer that is wanting a forgiving set of irons that look very attractive in the bag. The first thing that I noticed about these irons was that the look was great compared to other game improvement style irons. The all metal finish with no color anywhere is very attractive to me because I am used to playing with forged irons.

I was really impressed with the feel off of the face of these irons once I started swinging them. I started with the gap wedge and slowly moved my way throughout the entire set all the way to the 4 iron. I was very happy with the amount of forgiveness from these irons. Mishits out on the toe or in on the heel still went a good amount of distance and near my target. I was very pleased by how easy it was to launch the ball as well. The ball was jumping off the club.

My only gripe with these irons was that I was not super impressed with the distance. I was getting about the same distance with these irons as I get with my current irons. My irons are around 2 degrees weaker in loft so that is why it surprised me. I should have been getting 5 yards more out of the irons at least.

This might be one of the best-feeling irons I have ever had in my hands. They are a distance-packed iron that doesn't sacrifice sound, feel, or playability. They are super forgiving and easy to hit. In fact, the first time I hit these irons, I thought they practically hit themselves. The first shot with a 7-iron towering shot carried 150 yards easily. I've hit them with graphite shafts and with lighter 95g Nippon steel shafts. Both perform beautifully. The lofts are super strong compared to most irons I've played or demoed, so it might take some golfers a little while to recalculate their distances. That isn't a bad thing. The added distance can provide the golfer looking to hit those shorter irons into the greens. It's way easier to hit an 8 or 9 iron into a green than those longer 5 and 6 irons. These irons can do that for every golfer. The launch is outstanding. The higher launch means longer carries and also softer landings on the greens. That should appeal to every golfer out there.

Mizuno JPX 923 Hot Metal irons in my opinion are the best feeling and performing game improvement irons on the market. Still have that Mizuno feel though the construction is different than their forged line. And have loads of distance and forgiveness to them. What is crazy is you can play them regardless of your handicap. Thought a lower handicap may want a smaller club here. But the Pros could be the answer. Or a combo set.
