Mizuno Pro 225 vs JPX 921 Forged vs JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro | Mizuno Irons Comparison

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ก.พ. 2022
- The Mizuno Pro 225 irons are the longest, most forgiving model in the Mizuno Pro 220 series, featuring a hollow-body construction and Grain Flow Forged 4135 Chromoly. With that said, the Mizuno Pro 225 irons fit into the players-distance iron category. But how do they stack up against previous Mizuno irons in the players-distance category?
In this video, 2nd Swing's Drew Mahowald and Jackie Johnson test the new Mizuno Pro 225 irons against the Mizuno JPX 921 Forged and JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro irons and, with the help of Trackman, identify the similarities and differences.

Thanks Jackie. This was really useful. I love the 2nd swing comparison videos. Unfortunately i live in Australia otherwise I would visit you guys for a fitting. I am due for an upgrade and have had my eye on mizuno irons for a couple of years now. This has helped me in what looking for. Cheers Warwick
You are so welcome!
this is the review I have been waiting for. Thank you! I tested the 225 and the forged as well. swinging avg 84MPH 7 iron and the carry and ball speed on the forged were about 5 yards further and consistent vs the 225 even with more loft. forged just felt hotter off the face.
Always a good video with Jackie. Now I would like to see Jackie test 5 drivers: Ping 425, TaylorMade Stealth Plus, Callaway Rogue ST Max, Cobra LTDx or LTDx Max, and especially the Mizuno ST-Z!
I would be most interested in seeing the dispersion comparisons. I expect the carry and total distances will be close.
Definitely want to try the 225 as I was watching the video yesterday for Average Golfer and he was gushing over them, chucking out his pxg's for them.
Great job Jackie!
What a great comparison review.. Jackie is brilliant and swing wise is so relatable.. great work guys 👏👏👏
921 Forged results surprised me as it was longest with best dispersion yet most loft.
The sound was interesting, to my ear both the Forged 921 and the 225 sounded much quieter and softer off the face than the 921 HMP
Forged vs not so you're right. The hot metals sound a bit sharper, however the feel is very close. Feel more like a forged club than not.
This was the best comparison by far. I’m currently play jpx 900 hot metal and I want to move up to more of a players iron with my hc dropping and learning how to hit different shot shapes. It’s going to be Mizuno no doubt and when I do get fitted I’ll still try both 921 forged and 225 but this video gave me more detail of the difference between the 2 that I have wanted to know since day 1. I have purchased from you before and always have been pleased and this video proved to me that doing business with you is no mistake!!!
Giving the people what they want! Great video. Jackie... Ditch the hat so we can see your face! I bet the forged has a better bounce/grind for Jackie... Helping her get through the turf more clean. Just a guess...
Never been so excited to see a review! JPX921 forged and 223’s are both on my short list. Maybe 225’s or possible mixed set. The 223’s remind me of the Ping i210’s looks wise
Really good video!
I tried out the old MP-20 HMB vs. the 921 Forged and found the thinner more compact 921 was much easier to swing and hit. Seems like similar goings on here.
Thank you for watching! - Thomas
@@2ndswing Regarding 225 irons vs hot metal jpx 921 irons: the forgiveness is only a few yards difference but distance 225 goes further?
I guess the main problem with Mizuno is availability. I was fitted into jpx, waited 6 weeks, and today I was informed that the shop is still waiting for some clubs ordered over 2 months ago, and they can't say when they will be made. Apparently, Mizuno has some problems in the factory... That is really bad on brand. Imagine ordering clubs in early January and getting them in the middle of the season. I guess - this year it is better to choose another brand.
Just had a set of 921 forged delivered, very nice indeed!
Thanks for the data and input..Would be nice to know what shafts you were using...Thank You
Wish someone else was swinging these clubs. We need more feed back!!! Please do this again with another fitter!!!!!
Great video as always. Can you guys do a head to head comparison of the new Callaway Rogue Max LS vs last years Epic Max LS? I have seen lots of stealth vs Sim 2 comparisons but nobody has really compared this years Callaway drivers to last years.
One of the things this video highlights in spades, is that the quality of strike and the club's sole through impact is king; the 921 Forged, by the sound of impact alone, won by miles. A blind fitter would have picked the 921 Forged just with their ears. Until you hit a club, you have no idea if the overall design of the club will fit your swing. Is the 921 Forged the best-looking club? Nope - the 225 kills it in looks - but I know both a scratch player and a 20 handicap that play it and love it because it just works.
Thanks for this, Jackie! This video couldn't have come at a more perfect time. I recently purchased the T200s and I love them, but I've been hearing rumors of the damage that the plastic cover on the back on the club could potentially run into. I'm now looking at the Forged so I'm glad to hear it feels similar to the T200.
Random question, how's the plastic plate on the back of your T200s? Any wear or damage, yet?
I swapped out of the T200 for MP 225. The plastic cover on the back of the T200 made it sound so loud and alters the perceived "feel" of the club. The Mizuno Pro range is in a completely different league. Worth a demo. I'm pretty sure Titleist will completely revise the T200 design in the 3rd generation.
Could you mention what shaft flex Jackie is using. My swing speed is a bit slower than Jackie's and getting slower as I get older. I'm planning on getting fit to see what difference it makes but it would be interesting to know.
As always top notch videos. Thank you
Jackie is playing a regular (men's) shaft in her clubs- Thomas
@@2ndswing so hot metal pro is 2 yards further than the 225 according to her test.. if that's the case those high handicap clubs are only a little more forgiving compared to 225..thoughts?
I have the JPX 921 HMP , wanting the 225’s when I become a better ball striker the 225’s are sexy a timeless looking iron . How’s the forgiveness on the 225’s??
When you got the HMP did you also try the HM? I’m wondering if the HM is noticeably more forgiving despite the changes being just more offset and a little thicker sole.
@@leospaceman2976 I did not as the size and offset of the HM didn’t appeal to me . I doubt the HM would be to much more forgiving if at all, but email Mizuno they usually get back to you decently quick . Cheers .
@@leospaceman2976 I have both HM and HMP (split set). I don’t think there is much if any more forgiveness between the two (imo). The main difference to me is the look and feel of the head sizes and top lines. It comes down to what you are more comfortable with. Go by initial gut feel.
my 7 iron was 85mph smash factor 1.46, the one best suited me was hot metal pro with project X lz black 5.5, i tried the forged with ns pro 850 R the number even came close. my conclusion is shaft matters more than just club head
The shaft is player dependent. Some players the shaft really makes a difference in how their swing loads while others can hit many shafts the same. Glad you found a good match for your swing! - Thomas
Can someone help me here. How does everyone at 2nd swing get 1.35+ smash factor on their 7 irons? PGA pros average 1.38 with their 6 irons...
Smash factor seems pretty irrelevant I get great smash factors but I’m a terrible player 30 HC
@@boots160_ Definitely irrelevant if there are major flaws, but when you're looking to get the most out of contact, for the least amount of effort, smash factor is the major goal (after direction and consistency)
Pros get high smash factor with straight up blades which only offer high COR on totally flush shots. Normal people achieve high smash factor due to much more forgiving clubs
R
@@peelershelt COR is a max number though. Lower loft = higher smash, but its always odd in 2nd swing for some reason.
What shaft did you use for this test?
Recoil ESX F3 - Thomas
is Jackie one of jerrys kids ?
If you are a leftie then the 221 and 225 are not options. Interestingly the y did not do the 921forged in left only the tour.
Mizuno definitely make it tough on lefties and even more challenging to combo. - Thomas
@@2ndswing indeed sad as they make such good clubs - also one year they do the forged in left next they don’t. So no consistency about it. For example last year left was only the 921 tour. This year the 223!
sure seems as though the Pro 225 won this test.
Doesn't, look to be much improvement over the JPX800PRO from 2011.
