- Golfshake equipment expert Ryan Rastall tests out the new Mizuno JPX 921 forged irons at Howley Hall Golf Club in Leeds.
The Mizuno JPX921 forged irons offer a more forgiving iron than the 921 Tour and as well as forgiveness look and feel great.
Find out what Ryan thought and how he got on testing the JPX 921 forged clubs out on the golf course which are tech featured, provide help with offcenter hits, provide forgivenees but still have the sleek look for any golf purists out there that llike the look of a blade.

Mate, this review tipped the scales, I'm getting these irons. :) Top work.
Glad you enjoyed! Let us know how you get on with the new clubs.
Awesome video. Just got fitted for these. 6 handicap. The feel of these are amazing. Fitted with a dynamic gold s300 120 shaft. The shaft fitting system they have is spot on.
Great to hear!
Just got them. Amazing. longer and more consistent than my previous T200 also on short irons with weaker lofts. Just a precision Gap to 8 irons are made from 1025E steel. Chromoly is only on seven to 4 irons. (Index 13)
Nice! Enjoy your golf.
Just got fitted for these clubs and played only a few rounds and practiced s few times. Always played Pings before and couldn’t believe I would play something different. However, during the fitting, I fell in love with the looks of these clubs and how they set up to the ball. After playing with them, I can honestly say “I love these irons”. They feel almost “buttery” . I would highly recommend these for anyone from a 3 - 14 handicap.
I bought a set of these after playing Ping Zing 2 irons for 27 years! I'm a higher handicapper because my short game sucks and my driving is erratic, but I generally strike my irons decent. It took me a while to get used to them, but I now love these irons and glad I shelled out $1500 US dollars for them. Buttery smooth and forgiving😀
Great review. I'm a 16 handicap and just got fitted and ordered. They are lovely!
Glad you like them!
I had the exact same experience with the six iron on a par 3 on my 1st round with these clubs. missed the grooves entirely (ball mark was on the smooth chrome part of the toe).
The ball still went dead straight and hit the green.
Nice!
great video as usual, fitted, was going for the hot metal , but after trying these gone for the forge , fab feeling off them, thanks for the great advice etc, stay safe all best from Ireland , cant wait for them to arrive in around 5 weeks
Glad you like the review. Let us know how you get on once the clubs arrive.
Hi Jon. I see you went for the forged in the end? What was it that convinced you over the Hot Metal? I play off 12 and am torn between the Forged and the HM Pro. Curious to know what tipped the scales for? Thanks, Peter
@@peterkelly9655 Hiya Peter , hope all good with you, believe it or not, I exchanged for hot metal pro with Recoil esx shafts, find them way more forgiving, think I was in dream land thinking I could utilise the forged to their full advantage, maybe when my handicap drops to low single figures:) , the Hot Metal Pro are beauts, I use the recoil graphite shafts as had few shoulder injuries & my club speed wasn't great, really do love them, and cant wait to get out and play properly 2 weeks today when the clubs open her in Ireland
any other ? fire away
all best & stay safe
Jon
@@jonwright8236 that's great John! sometimes the heart rules over the head so I'll keep that in mind myself when I go for my fitting! the 921 range is so good it really is hard to make the choice. I flick between the Forged and the Pro but then the standard Hot Metal looks just as good and with the added forgiveness! so many choices! Dare I ask why you didn't go for the the standard HM? Was the pro just better looking? good work on the Recoil shaft by the way - I have heard excellent things and I will look at that myself! Best of luck for April 26th!
@@peterkelly9655 have to be straight honest with you Peter, it was the look of the Hot metal pros, just at address they look so great very similar to the forged to be honest, I just found the hot metal looked quite chunky at address, of course this is personal thing, but that's my thought, when you hoping to get sorted ?
Great content Ryan .Always love your videos and knowledge in general. One question that i have is if you had a choice would you game the 921 forged or the Mp20 MMC ? I watched your review of the MMC and i know you liked it as well. Thanks again and look forward to more of your content in the future....
Great honest review. Got my sub 👍🏼
Much appreciated!
Awesome review ! Will be comparing this to the Ping i210 or if i wait until next year it’ll be the replacement i210 (i220?). Happy to hear how forgiving this forged model is ! From what i seen and heard the sole of the i210 is more forgiving for a digger ( i tend to take medium size divots with my mid and short irons). I’m definitely not a sweeper. It will be an indoor fitting so will be hard to get a feel for the sole interaction.
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoued the review.
Ive played forged irons for years and just went from a titleist t100 to Ping i210 cause I heard such good things about them...got them and range session and 18 holes...no where near the feel of a forged iron for me. I210 supposed to be sooo soft but compared to forged...not even close.
@@jaychu3850 I heard the T-100’s aren’t that soft feeling. I had Callaway Apex
pro forged ‘19 irons, They were soft feeling. Before that I had Mizuno JPX 900 forged, they were the softest irons I’ve ever had But they had boron in them so they weren’t like a pure forged iron. I’ll be going for a custom fitting in the spring, so far it will be Ping i210’s/i500 combo or TM P-7MC /770 combo
@@stephendibari5010 I’d go TM for sure. I210 are not soft...yeah maybe if you’re used to playing large distance cast clubs but you’ve played forged and doesn’t come close trust me. And the i500 is even worse in feel.
@@jaychu3850 thanks for the tip on the i210’s and i500’s. I’ve been following their performance so I do need to hit them And experience the feel
Great clubs, pity Mizuno went so strong on the lofts as I don't think it was needed. But they're great with custom, so I think I'll order them 2° weak.
Always worth test out and getting fit for you.
Do it! I ordered mine 2-3 degrees week depending in the club.
Well done Ryan, thank you 🙏
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed.
I’m thinking about them and the new Srixons ,thanks
Glad you like the video, worth checking out.
Ordered a set yesterday with Nippon shafts.
@@jbkdmc yes I got the forged with steel fibre shafts, thanks
Love to see these compared to 2020 taylormade P770
Will see what we can do.
Hello,
As usuel wise comments that are realy appreciated, but please tell us for which golfers these clubs are dedicated
Scrarchh to 10 or from 10 to 18 or ....
I currently play mp-15's & I'm looking to get a new set of mizuno irons soon. I'm an 11hcp & am thinking about the Forged or MMC irons.. Forged will be more forgiving but I'm worried about the distance they go.. The forged 7 iron is the same loft as my mp-15 6 iron!
Let us know how you get on once you get fitted/set-up
Help! Question about the 921 Forged, regarding the CNC milled slot behind club face. On the 4-7 irons (Chromoly), is the slot formed by milling through the sole of the club and forging the sole slot back on? Or is it milled through the reverse side of the club? Second question. Considering the 8-AW/GW are not Chromoly at all, rather 1025E, my assumption is there is a difference in thickness of the back-milled slot on short clubs (likely not as wide considering it is a weaker material, just the lofts are jacked and CG is low?). Or are the short irons even back milled at all? That’s the one thing that drives me nuts about golf club manufacturers is they don’t give all the details. As a matter of fact, in the months leading up to the 921 Forged release, Not one mention in any of the literature about the short irons being a completely different material. I pre-ordered them the first day they were available and I was one of the first to receive them in the mail in the fall of 2020. I was completely flabbergasted to see the short irons didn’t even have the tech in them whatsoever. Contacted Mizuno and received a reply from Chris Voshall within a couple minutes. Basically accepted the blame for completely blindsiding the customers with the reality that the tech was only in the 4-7 irons. Yikes. Huge mistake made by Mizuno on this iron. They have since informed consumers about their 221/223/225 irons that are also Chromoly long thru mid irons and 1025E in the short irons. I can absolutely feel a difference, the Chromoly irons feel a tad bit clunkier, but still pleasantly soft. Can’t say I dislike the irons by any means, but I felt like I got scammed. Anyways, if anybody could help me out with that. CNC question I’d really appreciate it.
Great review Ryan> Do you feel that it would be a benefit to play with the lofts on this irons...My 7 iron is a 34 loft, these are 31... may be two degrees weaker or would this mess up these irons>>>> What it you thoughts...Thanks....Ali
Great review again. Torn between these and the hmb. 🤔
Let us know what you go for! You getting fitted?
@@golfshake Hi Ryan, after trying lots of irons, just been fitted for srixon zx7 5-pw with 4 iron in a zx utility iron.👍
A 155 yard PW is going to leave one hellva gap down at the low end, that's what concerns me about these bombers.
Great review Ryan. I'm 67 so club speed has dropped a bit. Forgiving enough for a 16 handicap who wants to get better?
Worth testing out and getting custom fit if you can
Beware. The 8-Gap are not chromoly. They’re 1025E. I just received my set. I feel pretty misled by this. Contacted mizuno and they said that’s the way they were designed.
Thanks. Briefly mentioned in the info.
Did you notice a difference in feel transitioning from the forged chromoly 7i to the forged 1025E 8i?
Hi Mike, I had the 6 and 8 iron in the set I tested but couldn’t feel any difference in the strike between the two. The only thing I noticed was how amazing forgiving they were. 👍
Hi Ryan
Which handicap bracket would you say these irons are aimed at?
I'd like to know this too actually
10 to 14
@@mabozar74 I think handicap is a myth,if you like a set of iron then get them
Hi Ryan , i m playing mp64 ( 7 handicap). I m wondering if the 921 forgesd would give me the same consistancy. Thanks
Nice video btw!
Hi Ryan. this review is making me really think the Forged or HM Pro are the way to go. I am a 12 hcap and currently play a 5 year old set of Wilson D300 which I bought off rack when I was a 20 hcap. As I have improved the thicker face of the wilson has really started to bother me and I struggle to hit the 6 & 5 irons especially as I see the back of the iron and it really puts me off. I feel like it alters my swing looking at it. Would you say that a sleeker iron like the forged or even the HMB would suit - concern with the HMB would be the reduced forgiveness. I wonder would a more players iron suit (HMB) or does the forged / HM PRo give me the best of both worlds? thanks Ryan, Peter
Hi Ryan, where would you recommend for a good Mizuno fitting in Yorkshire? Really keen to try these irons out.
Hopefully you find a place, I just got fitted for them and they are so nice
Why does the Chromoly stop at the 7 iron?
Top edge looks a bit porky. I think the bottom is too. Currently have WS V6s and Srixon Z785s.
Possibly yes but will suit some
Forgiveness wise, how do these compare to the Hot Metal?
Not as forgiving but they are extremely close considering the noticeable difference in the head size.
Hot metal review coming soon. Tour version live later today.
meant to ask, do you recommend iron covers on them? as in do they scotch dent easily if they hit off each other in the bag? know it sounds silly ? just my dad always kept his ping irons with covers on them to prevent this and wondered was a it need with these new irons out? appreciate any advice
Always use covers. Bag chatter will do more damage than the 1 or 2 minutes a club will hit a ball in its lifetime.
@@jasonlewis995 thanks for the advice, really appreciate it, hope to receive my hot metal pros in next few weeks, I'll get covers for them on your advice, makes sense, thanks for that, happy Christmas 🎅🏌️
@@jonwright8236 absolutely! People snicker at the fact i use them, then when I pull them off the clubs still look brand new (theyre 6 years old!) They leave theirs to bang around in the car or on the cart and look awful. If I'm dropping $1k on a set of irons, why not protect them with a $20 set of covers? As my grandpa said- why protect your driver and putter but nothing else ? Merry Christmas 🎅!
@@jasonlewis995 cheers for that, and happy Xmas to you too, any particular covers youd recommended? Considering going for the mizuno ones, but if there are better ones you'd recommend, many thanks
@@jonwright8236 any will do honestly but I do prefer the rubber over the neoprene ones as they have a shaft clip to keep them from flying off.
Mi-ZU-no
No, no, no.
Slow it down and do not accent any syllable, then speed it back up.
In Japan it is almost more like Miz-zo-no. Even miz-no when you hear fast speech.
Thanks
@@golfshake
Not giving you a hard time. Americans pronounce Tokyo with 3 syllables Toe-Key-o whereas it is really only 2. Tou-kyo
The first time someone said Mizuno to me I had no idea what they had said.
Yummy
Look and feel great.
