Mizuno JPX-925 Series Irons

September 24th, 2024

Schedule Lifetime Iron Fitting The JPX-925 Series Irons from Mizuno offer some significant advantages in terms of performance and aesthetics.  All three models, JPX-925 Hot Metal, JPX-925 Hot Metal Pro and JPX-925 Hot Metal HL are designed to improve distance, accuracy and forgiveness.  Here are the significant changes that we see: Introduction of Multi Material  Mizuno has always been a leader in incorporating the latest multi material technology in their irons.  The new 4335 Nickel Chromoly provides more stability and the ability to create the thinnest face ever in the JPX Series.  The result?  Faster ball speeds for more distance. Contour Ellipse Face Design This new design provides a larger sweet spot for those golfers that tend to miss low heel or high toe.  The result?  Less shot dispersion and loss of distance on miss hits. Cup Face Technology The 360 degree cup face design is literally a “driver mentality” design that allows for the thinnest face allowed and narrower sole.  The result?  The fastest ball speeds of any JPX line to date. PRO Series Model The JPX-925 Hot Metal Pro is designed for the player that is looking for a slightly smaller head, thinner top line and sole, and... Read More

Best Iron Shafts 2024

April 29th, 2024

See our picks for the best iron shafts for 2024 – featuring multiple new steel and graphite iron shafts and removing discontinued shafts. Remember that selecting the best iron shaft or iron-shaft combination starts with knowing your game. For simplicity, we’ve grouped iron shafts by swing speed. However, so much more goes into fitting the right shaft – tempo, transition, release, launch angles, spin, swing path and more. Without a custom club fitting and knowing your numbers, trusting off the shelf or manufacturer suggested shafts often lead to frustration and disappointment. New Enhancements for Iron Shafts The newest irons and shafts in 2024 are producing greater distance, forgiveness and accuracy for our customers because we properly tune the iron and shaft combination to your handicap and swing dynamics. We’ve put the newest iron shafts from Aerotech, ACCRA, Fujikura, Project X, True Temper, Graphite Design, KBS, OBAN, Mitsubishi, Nippon and others through rigorous testing.
