Overview

The JPX925 Forged is Mizuno's compact players' distance iron. It pairs a slim, classic shape with a hollow-body build and slightly strong lofts. Most testers agree that it looks clean and tidy at address and feels soft and responsive on good strikes. Centre contact produces lively ball speed and good distance for the category.

Testers disagree on forgiveness. Some found it surprisingly kind on toe strikes for its size, while others noticed real distance loss on off-centre hits and said it trails more forgiving models. Launch also divides opinion: some saw a flight high enough to hold greens, but others found the long irons low and hard to get up.

It's best for golfers who already strike the ball consistently. It's a pricey set, and owners of the previous model gain little by upgrading.

What reviewers like

  • Soft, responsive forged feel with useful feedback
  • Compact, sleek head with thin topline and clean cavity
  • Strong ball speed and distance from centre strikes
  • Slightly strong lofts help on longer approaches

Watch out for

  • Premium price compared with many iron sets
  • Not suited to high handicappers or inconsistent strikers
  • Modest step forward from the previous JPX model

Who it suits

It suits solid ball strikers, roughly 10 handicap or lower, who want extra distance and Mizuno feel without moving to a blade. Higher handicappers may get more help from a game-improvement model.
