Got fitted for zx5 mk2 back in mid march. i finely got them in after 6 week wait. I was the same, the data tells it. I love the feel and forgiveness. Oh and the looks.
Hey Guys, just found this video and really like your 1 on 1 commentary on the gear. I think you both have done great. I’ve subscribed and looking fwd to more footage!
Love the side by side with these three brands. My hunt came down to Mizuno and PXG. Gen 6 are in the bag for me, and I’m in love with them!
Great review and very detailed, nice work, we all appreciate your efforts....saving us time and money.
just fitted for i230s. found ur channel off searching for i230s. ur channel is a suchhh a breath of fresh air fellas. took me 2 secs to guess you were brothers and overall cool stuff. Skol.
Great video! I was recently fitted for the hot metal pros. Can't wait for this season!
I thought for sure I was about to purchase some pxgs but now I'm going to try to hit all three before I do. Thanks for the great advice!
Another great review....love watching you guys review clubs.....good job and thanks for the honesty ....cheers from VULCAN CANADA
just found you guys and love listenting and learining from average golfers.
Just replaced my JPX 921 HMP's with the ZX5 MK 11's. Best iron I have ever hit. I ended up going with the graphite shaft which gives me a little more launch and descent angle. Thanks for a great review, you guys nailed it!
Thank you for watching and for sharing! We appreciate the support Bradley 👍
Great video gents! Those hats look great as well. I really dig the look of the black and gray floral one
Great video Green! Great work! Even though it's long I found it very interesting.
Getting back into it after 10 years away from the game. These 3 plus the Callaway Paradyms are the front runners (actually the 923 forged).
Been playing Gen 2 0311P for 3 years now and I'd have a hard time playing anything but PXG irons. Just love them.
Yeah, when they are working for you its hard to find anything that can measure up! Thanks for watching 🙏
I'm super excited for golf this year! I got my gen 5 at the end of last year. I wish I would of waited for the gen 6.
Great channel guys ..love your enthusiasm for the game .. keep up the good work .. watching from Scotland. Zx5 going in the bag .
Thanks for the support Steven! We’ll be in your neck of the woods playing a lot of golf in a couple weeks! Anywhere we need to seek out in Scotland or the st Andrews area?
When i decide to move on from my Apex's im forsure going to give all three brands a try in the fitting. I do be loving the look of those Srixons too
I just had a fitting this weekend. They narrowed it down to the Mizuno Hot Metal Pro and Srixon ZX5 Mkll. Haven't made a decision yet, but I liked them both! The numbers didn't show much of a difference, so that didn't help. Glad I found this video though. Maybe if I get one of those hats, it will make me lean one way! Great video!
Call the hats “Aloha Hats”
Great reviews from a everyday weekend warrior golf player. Especially love this video because I am looking to get fitted and these clubs reviewed are on my list. Thanks.
I was recently fit into the Srixon ZX5/ZX7 combo irons. Tested a lot of clubs and settled in the Srixons because of the feel and consistency with them. They performed the best for me.
Totally agree with Trevor to the point that I have purchased the sirxon zx5. Great looking iron but the killer is the feel and consistency of strike for me
Tested the gen 6 but went with the gen 5 full bag just based off value. Still both excellent clubs. Gonna be in Denver at the end of May, if I have time I’d love to swing by and check out the shop
I was recently fitted for Mizuno and they put me in the JPX923 Forged. Can’t wait to hit them on the course. Looking forward to your review of them versus the Hot Metal Pro. FYI, I’m a 12.
I have the 921 forged weakened a degree. I absolutely love these clubs. I think you’re in for a treat
You'll have to let us know how you like the Irons Brandon 👍 Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
I'm between the Ping i230, PXG Gen5T, Mizuno 923 forged/tour combo set and Srixon ZX5 MK II. Right now I'm leaning towards the ZX5. Keep up the great videos.
You have some great options there in front of you Jeff. The ZX5 are no joke. Thanks for watching 👍
@@embersgolf For forgiveness and distance, which do you suggest: 225 or srixon zk4
I have tried those. P790 outperformed them for me. Much more consistent for dispersion and accuracy and feel was what you mentioned. I can tell where I am hitting it from instantly
That P790's are great irons. Stay tuned for the Top 5 Irons video... they may be in there 😏
I use Srixon fairway woods and hybrid and PXG 0211 Xcor2 irons so I get why you like them. I know what you mean about the feel of the PXGs. Enjoyed the video.
Reall appreciate the time you all put in to this analysis. Can’t wait to try all of them.
Just purchased Gen 6 311 7-pw, but haven't gotten them yet. I have been playing Taylormade since 2006, and loved my fitted RSi's that I purchased in 2014, but I got COVID in November 2021 and my timing got way off, so I decided to change clubs. I purchase the p790's off the shelf, BAD IDEA. After doing some research, I decided to go with the PXG's. I just called the company, and gave them the swing weight and lie of .y RSi clubs. Because of COVID, I went from a 7 hcp to 16, not a fun 2 years but looking forward to seeing the difference these new clubs are going to have on my game... GREAT VIDEO...
Thanks,
Byron Fite
I play the Taylormade M4 irons. I think I’ll probably be ready to switch out from them once I break 90 or potentially 85. I’ll definitely keep these irons in mind when I go shopping later this year.
I am a big fan of Srixon. I have the original zx5. But love the look of the Mizzy…Looking to get the hat to match the irons!!! Let’s go….
i went from pxg gen 4 irons, to an older set of mizunos, MP4s. the MP4s are leaps and bounds more enjoyable as they feel amazing. the mizuno 221s and 225s are more likely my next set as they look perfect.
I’m 2 years into golf and love playing. Gonna upgrade my beginner set before summer since I’m starting to make pars and getting better. I wish I could hit pxg gen 6 xp irons and Callaway smoke ai HL at the same fitting and compare but can’t since fitter doesn’t have both. Luckily there is a pxg store nearby in mpls though to go test them
Yeah its hard to get PXG and other brands all in the same fitting. Thanks for watching Jared, hope our video helped you narrow it down.
I’m absolutely in love with my PXG Gen 6 P. I have to disagree in that I can feel my miss instantly when I strike them. I also played Gen 5 P. Tested Mizuno JPX 921 and 923 Forged and Tours. PXG was softer and better ball speed for me. I’ve never hit Srixon though and have been hearing amazing things about them. I’ve hit or gamed all the other major manufacturers but PXG has blown my mind every time I’ve been fit and hit them.
Tayte is right there with you for sure! He just can't find a club that beats the PXG data and feel. Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
I was recently got for the 923 Hot Metals or the ZX5’s. Ended up going with the hot metals because damn they are sexy. Love y’all!!
Try out the Miura 302. It’s in the same category as the other 3 irons that you own. Will be great to have a review of it.
Another great video. Probably my favorite 3 brands. I'll probably go with PXG's this year.
I am going through this now I have it narrowed down between MP 225, Srixon ZX 5, and PING i525. I have low ball flight and low ball flight. The PING has best height by far. But it is a bit louder. But not as horrible as people make it out to be. But I also want the MP 225. It’s so gorgeous. I spend 6 months a year in Japan and they have been rocking Srixon for a while. Most of my Japanese friends play them. But they always argue between them and Mizuno. Homna also makes good stuff.
You have it narrowed to some pretty sweet options. Let us know what you go with 🎉
I tried many irons and fitter and I settled on best overall stats I generated with ZX-5’s (5 thru PW)
Just ordered a set of srixon zx5 with 120 gram stiff flex modus shafts should be here next Tuesday can't wait to hit them. Srixon irons rock
@@embersgolf you guys put out freaking great content. 👍 watching you guys talked me into getting these irons.
That is awesome! We appreciate your support Tim! Let us know how you like those ZX5's. Those irons are phenomenal! 🔥
I’m pushing my nephew on two of the 3 you just showed. I hit mizuno hot
nice review. I am a 12-14 handicap and currently game pxg gen 6 . Before that playing srixon zx5. I liked srixon but felt I lost a lot of distance compared to pxg. I never played mizunos but heard great things. I am a hockey player and I have had 7 knee surgeries 1 hip surgery and 1 back surgery so have lost some power and looking more for distance gains. I currently hit my 7 iron 155-160 where I used to hit it 165-172 so may have to look at mizunos but pxg are so good and feel great . Maybe wait until gen 7 comes out as pxg always improves on their prior generation of clubs.
Man you have been through a lot. Yeah, PXG helps with distance and they look great! Thanks for sharing and for watching 👍
Love the videos! Is it worth upgrading from my gen 5 to gen 6.. or should I just wait till gen 7, ha
Driver is a huge upgrade between 5 & 6 we felt. The irons are better but not a ton better, so up to you 🤷🏻♂️
I just went for a fitting and ended up getting the hot metal pro’s 2 degrees weak. I was hell bent on some sort of titleist iron but every shot I hit with the Mizuno’s felt so much better than anything I tried.
Mizuno makes some of the best feeling irons out there. If not the Best! Thanks for watching 🎉
Buy the Srixon zx5s mkii you won’t regret the purchase honestly a beautiful looking club and the feedback and performance are amazing
I want to hit the Gen6 so bad. I’m due for a new set. Keep up the good work.
Was fit yesterday both Srixon ZX5 and Mizuno 923 Forged. Curious as I definitely had some really hot balls with the 923 Forged like you did with the hot metal. Srixon much more consistent. Liked the look of the Mizuno better. Did either of ya'll try the ZX7? I feel like it might compare better with the 923 Forged. I unfortunately didn't have the chance to hit the 7.
I have a set of the 7 and 5. The seven is full forged like the 923. So it’s for sure softer. But also less forgiving. What’s a cool idea is maybe combo setting them if you struggle with long irons. So for example. On the 4,5,6 irons do the zX5, and the 7,8,9,P do the zX7. Just an idea. We can help you order whatever you would like as well.
I could use some advice. I have PXG 0211 XCOR2 irons from 6 to Gap wedge which is 48° . I could buy the sandwedge from the set at 54° or should I buy 1 or 2 from the 0311 3x forged wedges and if I go that route should I go for 52&56 or 54&58?
Bang for your buck i would do the forged. But its really up to your Gapping in your bag and if you need the extra wedge. Let us know what you end up doing 👍
Good video. Funny. Why weren’t the new cobras tested here? I play Gen 6 but the new cobra I’m my option a very very close 2nd
The cobras hadnt been fitted yet when we shot this one. But they will be in the Top 5 video that will be getting recorded soon i think 😏 🤫 🎉
As a high HC, I'm a fan of all three brands.
We agree with you there. You could go with any of the three and be sitting great 👌
Just went through a comprehensive fitting- 85mph swing speed 15 hc- Down to JPX HMPro vs Srixon ZX5 MKII- Fitter suggested Srixon due to feel, forged and less chunky looks... What am I missing? Oh and a little cheaper and get them sooner... Thanks!
You speak nothing but Facts! Thanks for sharing J. Let us know how you like them 🙌🏼
I love the speed foam, but mizuno for me gives more feedback being a feel player.
I think you guys picked some of the best feeling irons although I haven’t tried a pxg. Just curious which do you feel is more forgiving between the Srixon zx5 vs the jpx 923 forged models ?
I hit the 923 Forged in a sim and they were plenty forgiving. As long as you don’t shank off the hosel or skull it you’ll be in good shape wherever you hit it. They may go shorter but you’re not going to get a rocket ball 15 yards further than you’d expect.
Yeah McNiller is right. The Forged is a great, soft feel. But if you have trouble with consistent ball striking the ZX5 will be a little more forgiving. So it depends on the players skill level. Thanks for watching guys 🎉
Play the 0311 Gen 3. All are terrific clubs; on looks the black version of the 225’s would be #1, followed by the Gen 6, imo. Have played golf in Colorado & understand changing your lofts…
What training aid would you guys recommend for a new high handicap golfer ?
Since you love the tinkering and numbers, you should consider doing the Ping ball video for an episode.
I'm a mid handicap myself and I found the pro 223s to be more forgiving than the 225s. Try those out
I enjoyed the video, and am looking at all these clubs. I would say that if you took a couple of minutes to discuss off camera what you want to talk about I think you could make the video more enjoyable and concise.
Thanks for the input, we will try and be better. Thanks for watching MrAyrit. We appreciate it 🙏
I would have thought you would have tested the Mizuno P225 with these 3. Have you reviewed them yet
We have that video on the Agenda, hopefully we can shoot it and release it soon 👍 Thanks for watching 🎉
I’m playing the 0211 xcor last edition. I maybe in line for a set. I love PXG brand. Maybe some Gen 6 0311 XF next?
Current Gamers are the Mizuno Pro 225. Best irons out there combining distance, feel and accuracy. PXG gen 6 just released but those look sexy AF
Did Tayte go with the standard lofts or did he request the same loft changes Trevor did for his irons?
Seeing improvement in Trevor's foot work, does not seem to be as delayed in previous videos.
Tayte went with the standard "Stock" lofts of the irons. He has been working on his footwork a lot. I am glad it is paying off 👍
I put the ZX5 MK2's in my bag for this season. Another great video. Thanks fellas.
Thanks for watching 🎉 You'll have to let us know how your season goes 👍
