best phrase ever "we are diving into some iron testing today" I mean... it doesn't get better than that!
“The wind in your whiskers. “ Nice one Mr. Fraser!
Third time I've watched this since you posted it, love this. I especially appreciated you listing the clubs with potential handicap user. Well done yet again fellas!
Loved this video. Really useful to see the recommended hc range at the back end, and brought it to life with the actual hole rather than range. Great work as always, but really appreciated those 2 additions in particular!
This video was such a great little surprise. Keep up the great work on the channel guys!
Great to see this type of comparison back in the rotation. Love these. Excellent comparison
Great test. Super excited to see the entire iron series you have lined up!
Can't wait to watch this one! So many beautiful clubs in this segment.
Kudos guys. This is the testing method we’ve been waiting for, testers who pull 7 irons from different sets with varying lofts and then expect to offer a fair view of tech can’t possibly when lofts are different.
fantastic test guys, i am up in the air between the ZX7, T100 and JPX Tour for this season, and it was great to see them in action to show that you cant go wrong with any, but fantastic to hear Matts realistic comments on how they felt in ease to hit as well as he is a very consistent ball striker so if he noticed this, then others may even notice it more....only been able to hit the T100 so far and loved the feel, in the next couple of weeks ill hit the other 2 and make a decision, after seeing this though it may be harder than i thought....thanks again for all you do!!
Great insight lads.upgrading the irons and really like the look of the Mizuno, Miura and T100 but after seeing this I think the Srixon is gonna be in the mix for my iron fit.the sound of the Miura is definitely appealing too.
Matt's dispersion screen looks like a small dandelion. Mine looks a fourth of July fireworks... Lol!
same lol
They specifically note that only good swings and well struck shots were left in to ensure the performance of the club was compared from one to another, rather than outliers being included that could throw out the comparison.
Watch the recent european tour video of RMcI and JS trying to make a hole in one and you'll see that even tour pro's miss greens on with a wedge/9 iron.. especially noting that they are literally hitting the same shot over and over again. Just goes to show that what we see on TV/youtube is often just the highlights and top performers for the week on the tour and selected shots from tests (which is completely fine).
@@ryanokeefe12 It's a game of misses. So misses and forgiveness is very important. But so is performance on nutted shots. How consistent they are in spin and carry. Dispersion is usually swing related.
@@chuckyz2 Are you responding to my point by telling me the same thing as my point?
@@ryanokeefe12 yeah. with some whys.
Always putting down some great swings Matty!! Great vid gents!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Matt, that dispersion is sick. So consistent! Well done guys, such a pleasure to listen to you two discuss everything golf.
Thanks guys! Very nice. I love my 921’s. Same test hollow heads would be sweet as well. Keep up the great work and content for us junkies. It’s always the best.
I greatly enjoyed watching this. it illustrates how subtle in many ways the differences are between them when all adjustable variables are normalized.
I think a great follow-up video to this would be to hit these exact same clubs at their factory spec lofts and lies. I'd enjoy seeing how they perform as designed in a comparison!
Great timing with the video I have an iron fitting here in a few weeks. Super stoked to try out the zx5s and 7s. Especially as someone whose strike miss is toeside I love the idea of having the tungsten out on the toe
I love the passion you put in to club testing. I’m looking for a more traditional style cavity players iron, so this was interesting thank you. 🙏🏼
as always... beauty stuff from you guys ! Got the P7MC irons coming my way for the summer. Went 770 in the 4 iron 0.5 weak on the loft.
LOVE iron video days. Just makes me more and more anxious to finally get fit for new clubs one day
It's like you KNOW I'm shopping these irons before my fit!! Love this!!!
The video I’ve been waiting for! On the wait list for a fitting!
This is a video I've really wanted to see. This category of iron is right in my wheelhouse.
Would love to see a video where you fit a combo set. Hear why and where you choose to branch off from one model of iron to the other etc.
Cool idea
Yes
I agree 💯
This all day. Particularly with these clubs and their "more forgiving" counterparts in the mid/long irons.
100%!
seeing a visual and performance difference between stock ZX7's and 2 degree weak spec for the same irons would be absolutely awesome you guys! you gotta do it!! thanks
Seriously, this is EASILY the best channel for golf gearheads. I've LEARNED so much about golf gear and the game from this channel. You guys are the best. Would have liked for you to throw a little more love towards Mizuno irons, especially in this video, but its all good. Matt was absolute MONEY with the JPX! I love my Forged JPX 919s. :-P
Great video as usual. Keep them coming
First class as ever lads, thanks for the great content.
Great test. You’ve tested 2 that I’m interested in. The Srixon ZX7 & Mizuno JPX921‘s. Your recommendations fall in line with my handicap as well.... looking forward to testing them shortly. 😃👍🏻⛳️
Really enjoyed this video!!! Well done!
Great content, love this style of combo test.
excellent information and comparison, your data is second to none.
Excellent as always.... My ZX7 Irons are waiting for the Snow to melt to take their maiden round of golf .
just got my ZX7s - so nice, no regrets
Great comparison test again boys, all the clubs performing well. The stand alone winner would have to be ZX7 when it comes down to value for the dollar. Thanks to Srixon for offering a top line product at a realistic price
I’ve had my set for about a month now. Played z785’s last year and the zx7’s are noticeable more forgiving. But not in a bad way. They’re the exact same shape. Just the tungsten in the long irons makes them so much better
My ZX5 4 thru 5 and ZX7 6 thru PW are on order and am so anxious to get them.
Excited to see this!!!
Yes yes yes, just the video I needed pre getting fitted for new irons
I hit all of them but the zx7 when choosing my new irons. I ended up with the 921s. Absolutely love them and haven't regretted my decision one time.
I gotta say, looking at Mattyboi's swing today compared to 2-3 years ago, you couldn't even tell it was the same golfer. Today's mechanics look so much more fluid. Amazing Matty!
I like the recommended handicap range at the end of the video. Really gives some nice insight for those who might be looking for new irons
Agree! 👍🏼
Great job. I just wish the new Wilson CB. I play Srixons now and I love them as well. I love these types of tests. Thank you
Great video boys, great info as always
Just an unreal video. Great work fellas
I have the ZX7 and they are great. The Nippon 120 S Shafts. Feel and forgiveness for a players iron is amazing. And there is power under the hood. All the clubs in the test did great. I noticed that the ZX7 was higher up on the spin compared to all the reviews that said they were low. They also had the least deviation in spin. That means something i am sure. Thanks for this video. I was hoping to see Srixon lap the field and I think they would if forgiveness was tested but... it is nice to see that they all are making good clubs. I can say this for the Srixons. They are the only set of irons I have purchased new that I didn't feel the need to take the shafts out and check the alignment. I am going to though when I get time.
Would you ever consider posting a junior golfer fitting. It would be cool to see how you fit them assuming they are still growing ???
Seeing you guys add the Miura’s was awesome. Would be great to see a TB 901 and CB 801 video!
Love to see Srixon doing so well this year. Always made good clubs but feel they have really established themselves this year as a top contender in all categories this year.
I really love your Channel everything is done with an honest test and Maddie being a lefty like myself👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾😎
Matty I hope you are doing well. Please know we are pulling for you and hope you get back better than ever! Be well and see you soon.
Quality as usual guys.
That was awesome guys. I'm pretty impressed with the Srixon and the Mizuno.
I'll be checking out the Mizuno JPX921 however. Great testing thank you for all you're doing for our sport.
I just got fitted the other day and was looking at both but went with Srixon bc they were just a tad more forgiving for my swing, slightly better spin and a couple yards longer. Just make sure you get the correct shaft for the club.
Recently just hit all of these in my fitting. JPX sel tour is what I went with, felt the best for me. MC was hot off the face but didn’t give me as good of feedback as the mizuno.
Great stuff as always gents. Would love to see how the Callaway X Forged CB stacks up with these players irons.
Awesome comparison! Looking forward to the hollow body irons ! That’s the perfect way to compare these irons. Same shaft, loft and lie otherwise why bother ! How about a head-to-head non-forged cavityback players iron comparison. Like to see how Ping i210’s compare to their competitors.
Stirling job, as always, gents. Roll on 29 March here in England...
Awesome review lads 👏🏻
I hit the zx7 and mizunos together at the shop and agree the zx7 were easier to hit. I loved them
My JPX 921 SEL irons arrived today. Unreal feeling irons
Love to see a video on a stronger lofted set like the zx7, where you de loft the 8 iron by 2 degrees, put in a 7 iron length shaft and change the lie to 7 iron. To see if people could ignore the number stamping. A picker may do this to reduce bounce, or someone who digs may do the opposite and make a 6 more like a 7.
Hey, guys. Great content. Thank you. Any ideas as to when that "player cavity" comparison video might drop? I'm in the market for some new irons and would love to know where you guys stand on a few of those options to go along with these. Thanks again!
Could you also do a Radspeed Cobra one-length testing? Would love to see how they have progressed from the previous version. Cheers!
Great video...as always!
Being left handed, glad you explained the test. I'm debating between the JPX921 v Apex. Guess i'll need to wait for the other test.
Ordered my new irons as a pretty uncommon combo set. 3 iron MP20 HMB, 4 and 5 JPX Tour, 6-P MP20 MB. Cant wait to hit them 👍👍
Love this, can't wait to see the hollow body. I need to replace my Cleveland CG7 irons...
Love the vid, is it possible to do a similar video including jpx 921 forged, zx7 and zx5, cobra king tour (MIM) and other similar products please. Keep up the good work
Should have included Sterling Single Length as the control group...I still watch that vid often bc I’m so amazed by it (and I play them and love them!!). Nice job guys!
Great test guys. My take away is someone with the handicap to play these, would be fine with any of them and it really comes down to look/feel/brand you prefer. I know neither of you guys fit the bill, but I'll be buying a new set of irons this spring...so I'm looking for something that suits a 15 index with a high swing speed.
As someone who played JPX919 Forged, I will be moving in to the next iteration of the JPX lineup tour irons - or Miura TC201'c if the powerball comes through
I went to my Golf pro, told him to give me an MP-18 SC head, and then we'll find a shaft for me. It's nice to know, that honestly the cavities all perform very similiary, and that I was free to choose based on looks :)
ZX7 and JPX 😍😍
I own the Miura CB-801's. They are actually pretty forgiving and very well balanced. They're easy to hit!
Awesome content guys , I wish you would add Epon to these tests , I would love to hear your opinions..
Hey guys, great stuff and I love your channel. I would love to see some video out on an actual golf course.
I have some P7MC on order, out of all of the irons I hit they had the best top line and feel to me.
Those ZX7's 😍 I'd probably need to combo with the ZX5's for long irons... gaming a full set of Z585's just now
I added loft on the Srixon Z785 playing 6I at 30 (stock 28) Looks great agree that zx7 would look awesome
I LOVE MY T100-S! Best money I've spent in years!
Great vid lads! Would be interested to see how the MP20 MMC would fair vs these irons
Matty Boy Robotic testing at it's best xD love it!
Those zx7 do look amazing
Really good! Im ordering ZX7/ZX5 combo
There’s just something about a forged cavity back iron video that makes me want to drop what I’m doing and tune in. 🙌🏼
Is that fine print at the bottom of the handicap recommendation chart a teaser that there’s a video coming that will do a deep dive into combo iron sets? Please!!! 😁
It is really a good test. Same loft, same shaft.
Love the handicap range.
The golf TH-cam site by which all others are measured. I’ve run out of superlatives. Great review.
Great video, and great irons all around in terms of performance. How much spin was added (estimated) from bending the loft weaker on the ZX7?
I wish manufacturers would post blade length as a standard spec. I love that Srixon does that. If I only had a comparison for all the other clubs
Miura for me..great video!
great video, Agree 100% on the ZX7 looking money when bent 2deg weak. I hope srixon would just release Zx7.5 like a reverse T100s.
I am interested to see how the adjustment to 30 degrees changed the bounce. The ZX7 6i is 28 degrees with a wider sole?? Also, I play the JPX 900 tours and the set is traditional with the 6i being 30 degrees. I wonder if weakening the club by 2 degrees gave it 2 degrees more bounce and changed the mass which made it easier to hit? I used to play Titleist and was really looking at the Titleist ts100, but this has made me think of the 100-s and bending them 2 degrees?? Thoughts? I will look into this. :) DONE!! Here is a quote from Tom Wishon - For the vast majority of golfers and turf conditions, a 2* increase in the sole angle is really not going to affect anything because it is very slight. Only if the turf is really firm would this little of a bounce increase cause much of a change in the way the sole feels as it travels through the ground.
TOM
Ball striking clinic wow
Great test and info on a bunch of great irons! Any chance you guys could throw the Wilson Staff Model CB in a test? Looks like a high potential iron.
I saw Ian using the golf pride wraps on Instagram. I noticed Kyle Burkshire uses them as well? Is it due to weight? I would think that style of grip wouldn’t pair as well with speed? What are your thoughts on it and do you struggle with them as you sweat? I love the style bc I grew up playing baseball but never really used them bc of the heat and humidity in the south eastern US! As always love the content guys!!!
Great video.
Very interesting. Though I am a leftie but not with the game of Matt, I recently took out onto the course for five consecutive rounds on five consecutive days just my driver and putter and 7 irons in the following each with graphite shafts, hitting same shots on the fairway, in light rough, onto greens with respective 7 irons: sx7; jpx 921 sel/tour; cobra forged tec; p770; p7mc. Unfortunately not the titleist nor Miera though visited Miura’s plant in Japan. My findings for me in order of clear preference was: jpx921; p7mc (very similar to my p760); sx7; p770; cobra forged tec. The jpx had for me the most accurate results, preferred flight and best feel on balance. Having gamed the Srixon z565 years back was hoping the srixon would come out best but did not find it so. Probably equally to do with different graphite shafts in each.
Don't be scared to make the leap into a Player's Cavity Back if you're a confident iron player! I've been gaming the JPX 921 SEL (G-6i tour and 4i-5i forged) and they're absolutely incredible. Turf interaction and overall feel is so pure... something that cannot be explained, only felt. Plenty forgiving for anybody who is an above average ball striker.
So very good!
Damn those JPX 921 are beauties. WOW
Another great test. Are there any plans to do this with hollow back irons?
