- FINALLY...The PERFECT Golf Clubs... FOR EVERYONE!? When buying new golf clubs we always want to make sure we get the best golf clubs for our ability level... the best golf clubs for mid handicap golfers, the best golf clubs for high handicap golf clubs... the best forgiving golf clubs? the best irons of 2022? in this video I take a look at what I think could be the best SET OF GOLF CLUBS you could buy in 2023 for the every day golfer who wants ultimate performance but also lots of forgiving shots for your not great golf swings... Are the Mizuno JPX 923 Hot Metal irons the best irons of 2022 and potentially the best irons of 2023 moving forward? Let's find out... and let's do it now!
I’d like to see someone with a seven iron swing speed of 70 to 75 mph hit the HL’s as this is what Mizuno designed them for after collecting hundreds of thousands of swing speeds. I recently had a Mizuno specialist fitting and while I really wanted to walk out with the Pro’s, I settled on the HL’s. Absolutely so easy to hit and chalk and cheese compared to the HM’s and Pro’s all due to my 76 mph swing speed. Thoroughly recommend these. 👍🏻🇦🇺
I'm about 76-77 swing speed I think I could push more might of been nerves, the fitter just gave me the pros and said they will help more when you get better so should last you longer, I originally went in to try the g430s came away with pros, felt so nice and was was hitting them further
I just got fitted for Mizuno JPX 923 Hot Metal Pros. The numbers were absolutely fantastic.
I just ordered a set of Mizuno JPX 923 Hot Metals 5-GW with stiff Nippon Modus 105 shafts and Golf Pride CP2 grips. I tested pretty much every new iron for 2022 and 2023 and these far and away were the best for me. I am about a 18 handicap and my iron striking has always been my downfall. I cant wait to get these into the bag, I think Minuno has a winner here for 2023!
Me too. Only difference is that my fitter fit me 2 degrees flat.
I just picked up pretty much the same spec, the felt so nice in the fitting. Looking forward to getting out there now
I just got fitted for the hot metals and not only do they feel incredible I picked up 15 yards straight of the bat.
2022 proves to be a fantastic year for new irons. So many different manufacturers have come out with incredible looking and incredible performing irons. Glad I bought mine and don't have to think about it anymore.
I love the feel of the Mizuno irons. Saving up for a set to game next year.
did you save up and get a set?? been a year. ha
The Mizuno JPX923 are... I don't even know. I just bought a pair of 923 Forged with Dynamic Gold 105 (I think it was) shaft. I've been searching for clubs for a year and as a mid handicapper I was never able to find anything that work for me straight away. I always needed 2 degree flat lie not to hook every club I tried but then I tried these recently, completely stock in the store with a Dynamic Gold 95 shaft and it was almost perfect and it went dead straight and felt amazing. The JPX923 weren't even on my radar but the lady after seeing my swing told me to try these and I am so thankful she did. I couldn't be more happy with my purchase.
Just hit the HM, HM Pro, and HMHL on the Trackman vs my Srixon ZX5’s. No difference in distance, but my Srixon’s felt so much softer! Not that they felt bad, they were very nice.
I tested them as well. I don't need the HL ... you do lose a little distance but the get up quickly. Standards and pros tested amazingly. What club did you like the most?
If you are looking at these don't discount the HL because you think they are for slow swing speeds or old men. I swing about 80mph but have a good bit of shaft lean when I'm striking the ball well. Was getting a much more desirable ball flight with the 2degrees of loft on each club. Really only adds a degree or 2 to launch angle and a touhc more spin.
Went through a fitting back in March 2023. I fully expected to end up with Titleist T200 irons, but the ball flight of the Mizuno 923 was more to my liking. Also, I had a tighter grouping with the Mizunos.
Got the clubs in April, and the results have been unbelievable. My handicap dropped 3 strokes to under a 7 (not bad for a 62 year old) and even my misses are manageable. I honestly can't remember the last time I hit an iron with my Mizunos that was just plain terrible.
Even though they are a 'game improvement' iron, they really do have the look of a blade and come the closest I've found to the feel of my old forged clubs. I am enjoying playing again after a few years of frustration with a set of TMs.
which version did you end up with ? Pro ? HL?
I don't like these kind of irons for chipping James. They're a bit jumpy off the face. I am gaming a set of Titleist T100s irons that give me the power in the 4,5,6&7 but the nice solid feel in the 8,9&PW for delicate chips. But if I was looking to combo a set I think I'd like to save a few quid and Tokomo it 😁
I have the 921 HM Pro irons and really like them. I'm not sure there is a reason to update but for "feel" which seems to be the 923's calling card compared to the 921's. Great review.
I ordered mine and should be in October 15th and there is huge difference between the two. The nickel chromoly is alot hotter and the feel is unreal. The whole club is tweaked out.
Morning from Bama! Love me some Mizuno. I'm finally stripping the ball a bit more consistently. For my 2 year golfing anniversary, next June, I'm saving up for some Mizuno irons all thanks to the loads of reviews from your channel James. Cheers!
Morning Joe! Appreciate the support as always my man! 🤘🏼
242 yds out? I have nothing that can reach, so I'd play for position with a 22 deg hybrid, leaving about a 40 - 50 yd pitch onto the green. Two putts for par.
James...How would you rate the Mizuno JPX 923 hot metal up against the Mizuno 225 Pro irons??? For a mid handicap coming down the line... a 12 to 8 right now???? P.S. What shaft and flex were you using???
That is how to review golf clubs, awesome looking iron
Great looking irons. I’m looking forward to the 923 forged irons early next year!
If i didn't get custom fit early last year for 2019 Titleist T-200's (4-GW) with Red AMT graphite shafts, i would def. go for JPX 923 or 921's (Hot Metal Pro or Forged). I had a 2 sets of Mizuno Irons over last 12 years. MP-58's in 2010 and JPX 900 Forged in 2017. They felt awesome.
For 210, I'm going Hot Metal in the 5 iron. I hit a similar shot yesterday and hit within 10' of the cup. Would love to upgrade my Taylormade Sims.
As someone who has played mizuno irons for the last 25 years.
#nothingfeelslikeamizuno isn't marketing it's true 👍
I got fitted for and preordered the regular Hot Metals and it’s been painful waiting for them to arrive. Super excited
Great video JR 👌 good info on clubs I love...I've just been fitted for last year's model mid range purely for ease and price
My 923 Hot Metal Pros arrived today. Just got done taking the plastic off the heads, anxiously waiting to game them
How do you like them? I have the 919 HMPs and am looking to possibly upgrade. Hoping for an improved feel.
@@eldoprdr I was only able to get a few rounds with them before the weather turned and had to put them away for winter. They performed nicely, with some mishits getting a lot more distance than I expected... by far. I was coming from 2008 Titleist AP2s which had minimal forgiveness so these were a huge step up in forgiveness.
@@mikegraniero5142 That sounds good, thanks for replying!
@@mikegraniero5142 dude i just replaced my titelist ap2 712s with the hot metal pros and im so excited to try them! hoping for something a little easier to hit
Nice set ! I game the PXG 0211 XCor2. They feel better than my classic forged, Ben Hogan Apex Edge set and my Ping G425 set.
I've been considering the stealth iron set, do you think the hot metal irons would be a better choice?
I’m glad I went with the 921 hot metals. They seem very similar but the 923s are jacked up loft wise.
Great offering though for all the way from low to high handicappers.
The 923 are only 0.5 degree difference so your 921's are just as jacked up
@@mikegraniero5142 true I was looking at the PW…44 degree vs 42.5 in the 923s
Only a 1 degree difference it seems in the mid irons.
James are you wearing a Datejust on course 😅?
The shock from a golf swing can do damage to the rotor and spring wheel. More robust references like the sea dweller and submariner can handle the shock a bit better.
When the rest of the line is out, I hope you get back to Mizuno for a head to head fitting HM Pro vs forged vs tour.
Hi James , I have the Jpx 921 hm ; gw to 5 really enjoying them . I saw the HL are more traditional lofts ... question ? is it worth the change don’t see much difference for that $$$ 🤔 besides new clubs 😊.. keep up the nice work 🏌🏽♂️⛳️
Irons look great. I would need to uses the Mid Handicapper Irons..
Love the HL in process of investing in lessons James then they could be my next purchase
James Ive got to asked this question and something I was hoping you would have answered for a mid to high handicapper I tried all three using a dynamic 105 shaft then switching to a 85 gram shaft for the hot metal pro which as my handicap suggest took me quite a few hits to get used to owing to the blade like head in length but the lighter shaft did help especially launching the ball moving on to the hot metal I hit these well and was around 5 yards longer in length than the hl model looking at your last three shots it seemed you did better with the hl model once you adjusted your aim now for my question im not quite ready for the pros although I did start to get the hang of them using the 7 iron how I would do hitting he 5 I don't know so for me its the other two versions to choose from James is it worth the trade to go for stopping distance of the hl which according to testers seems to be incredible and give up a little distance than the hot metal with that 2 and a half stronger loft in the summer when the grounds really hard I often run through the greens as do many of my friends, is this a valid point to consider. loved the review
Great cinematography! If you were going to a fitting this weekend, would you consider a spilt set?
have the 919 hot metal LW-7, with hybrid 6and 5. Much higher launch than Cobra so I am always more accurate.
Just wait until the Forged and the Tour come out 👀 they are very very nice. I got fitted into the 923 tours with extensive hitting on all 5 heads and I get to pick them up tomorrow just in time for the weekend. I guess that’s just the perks of living in Japan 😌 time to be that guy that plays with iron covers
Are the Tours & Forge out now to try out ? Got a Mizuno fitting on Sunday, be great if I could try them
@@stephencarlisle3743 no, they don’t release in the states until Feb 2023… I am stationed in Japan and they’ve already released here. I will say, if you don’t absolutely need new irons, wait. The forged blows the hot metals(HM) out the water. They are smaller than the HM so to me, more pleasing to the eyes, but have the same performance and forgiveness. I do believe the lofts are stronger than typical so you’ll see the usual extra yardages. But I didn’t ever really get the sporadic 15yard gains on those reaaaally good shots, know what I mean? As for the tours, traditional lofts and a compact head. I’ve played mizuno blades for the last 3 years and decided to drop to a forged and these feel and look like blades at address, but have much more forgiveness, not nearly as much as the forged, but if you’re a lower handicap that is consistently striking the ball but not confident enough to play blades, these are the way to go.
Interesting you mention the sporadic 15 yard gains on great shots. Find that in my 921 HM. Maybe the forged will solve that. I mean I can fat and thin it easy but a great strike and 20 yards over the green is frustrating!
Forged it is!!
@@DE-ol9qp for sure! I JUST picked up my Tour irons and they have the exact blade length as my MP4s which are pure muscle backs BUT come tomorrow I will be seeing the difference in performance 😌
James, have you ever tested the Tour Edge Hot Launch irons like C522?
I still play the JPX 800 HD irons which have identical lofts as these 923 HL's. Even the wide sole and offset are similar. Need I upgrade?
I’d probably go 923 forges when they come out p-5. Hot metal pro in the 4i
Good morning from the mid-west US. Did you get any “jumpers”? If so, how far did they jump?
Hey James, can you throw in a average swinger swing speed on you test stop help us! Great piece! Thanks
Just when I have made my finalist list, you have to come up with another awesome set of clubs to consider. Do you do this on purpose?
Just got fitted for some JPX 923 Hot Metal. Went in looking for the HL, but the fitting the HM was the one to go for, 9, 8 and 7 irons. Then have hybrids above and Cleveland CBX wedges. Happy days 🤠👍
That sounds like the bag of a sensible golfer. Why make the game any more difficult that it already is.
I played the 921 hot metal pro last model were really nice clubs but changed to the taylormade p790 2017 model and love them.i think these look to much like the older model still lovely but would pock up the old ones a lot cheaprr
It seems things are coming full circle .. the HL model has the same lofts as the jpx800 from circa 2010 would be good to see a comparison between the 2 and what improvements in over ten years have been made ?
I love my 921 JPX Hote Metal. But i am struggling with my 4 and 5 iron. The hl in 4 and 5 could be a nice replacement.
High Launch only come in 5 iron and the 5 iron is the same as your 6 iron HM!!
Hi James, how would you say the forgiveness of the jpx923 hot metal compares to the mizuno pro 225?
Hit the 7 iron in all models yesterday ridiculous yards 220 and biggest was 232 that's mad
I just ordered the 5,6 of the jpx 923 HL
I think the pro ones are stronger lofted hense the longer distances you were getting
Well done James 👏
I just traded my taylormade stealth with ns pro 105 for 923 pro with kbs 120s
How do these compare to the takamo 101s?
Does anybody know if James was hitting 6 or 7 irons in the simulator?
Will stick with my Mizzy Pro 223s
Only thing is the wait time on your shiney new mizuno clubs coming
I picked 921 HM Pro's because of the offset. I dont like the offset in std HM irons
Kind of odd how the video cut off at the end just FYI
I would love to get into the NFT market but it's expensive with the gas price alone, something could cost $18 but the gas could be over $400
1 week I've spent 1 eth on gas
I want to get into the NFT market but i don't really know how it works, I think cryptocurrency is more better
That won't bother you if you trade with an expert like Charlotte Jones' I've been trading with her💯
Absolutely...Charlotte Jones' sells rate is really good and everyone will have a chance to buy from Her guide
Truth be told, to be lucrative in investing, you need an expert to guide you , most times it takes years to master this, so i choose to work with Ms Charlotte Jones' one who is ready for positive ROI
Hl ball flight for me just sim a little more right
Does anyone remember which mid to low level club that James reviewed, has the least amount of offset? The last thing I need is help getting the club closed at impact.
I’d say the 223’s that I’m using maybe, or the Wilson D9 Forged?
@@JamesRobinsonGolf Thank you for the reply. I will take a look at them. Enjoying the content have a great winter season.
Hi James. Why have you stopped saying “Let’s do it now” at the start of your videos? It was becoming a saying in our house before we watched you x
I bought the pros and cannot hit them to save my life. It’s honestly got me wanting to quit the game. When I get a hold of them, they are fantastic. But I just cannot hit them consistent. 🤦🏻♂️
Seriously thinking about moving away from Callaway this year because quite frankly their quality has drastically declined over the past few years. Definitely going to have to add the 923 to the list of contenders, thanks for the early review mate.
The most puzzling part about this lineup is that the “pro”version is the strongest lofted
Pro against the 225 plz!
As a American we play the American brands but these clubs are starting to show up on course more . Still love my Callaways but these are nice
Most of your so-called "American made" clubs are unfortunately not made in America. Look the different modls up for their made in origin. You'll be surprised.
I still don’t think they look as nice as the p790s. That’s a club for everyone!
The Sub 70 699 pro is almost a close twin to the p790 and half the price.
the Cobra forged tec are better and cheaper than the p790
The HL is “…not actually that bad.”
Talk about damning with faint praise!
HL would be the option my newbie self would be most tempted by, tho really I’m more drawn to the high handicap offerings from Tour Edge and Takomo.
Great vid, as ever. These vids help me get thru the workday.
It's like there is a stigma around the club offering help to get the ball in the air. Losing max 5 yards and from the shots we saw hit on the course here, the HL was the one most likely to stop on the green. The HL go way beyond just helping people with slower swing speeds. They go as high as you actually want the ball to go with ffar less effort than the cranked up irons.
The HLs have significantly stronger lofts than the Pro.
Weaker
James, you and I have a different idea of what looks good. To my eye, these clubs are ugly. In Mizuno's line of clubs, the Pro 225 is more appealing to me... Maybe the Pro 221, even
Comparing 4i with 5i !!? Of course the 5i will fly higher .....duh!
...or wait for the 923 Forged
James think your you tube channel comments have been hacked as it said I've won a prize and to message you
I got the same, replied on youtube, showed up for a few minutes and then got taken down. Definite scammer
