Hi Andy. I am playing the 223 from 2 years ago (243s today). Best clubs I have ever had. Expensive yes, but for me they are in the bag for 8-10 years before I change, so actually cheap over the years.

I went to a fitting fully expecting to find these the best for me, but the fitter gave me the JPX 923 Forged to try first, and that one felt unbelievably good, with excellent spin, landing angle, stopping power, dispersion, etc. In comparison I found the Pro 245 hard, clicky, with less consistent distance. It just didn’t perform as well for me as the older, cheaper JPX 923 Forged, which was also better than the TaylorMades, Pings and any of the other brands and models I tried.

I had the opposite experience. Now I didn’t buy any, I was curious how they felt against each other. And for me the forged was soft, but I lost distance. The 245 I was bombing and getting more spin where it didn’t roll out. i didn’t feel a lot of control though from the face, it was just hit and see where it went even when trying to hit draws.I currently play the jpx 850 and chose them over the Wilson c100 which they cost me 15 yards. But I’m feeling it’s time for an upgrade. Just haven’t dedicated the time to get fitted for a specific set

Have had them for 14 days and they are absolutely great golf clubs. They look like blades and are incredibly forgiving with proper decent angle to stop on the greens. Paired with Mitsubishi MMT's and they feel great together. Smart enough to know I should not use a blade, best of both worlds here, length, forgiveness and very workable. Very happy.

Pretty simple really: price. When I got fitted for my irons, I tried Titleist, Cobra, Ping, Mizuno and Wilson. The Mizunos were head and shoulders above the rest, but so was their price. I went with Wilson, which were almost 40% less than the Mizunos but not far off in every other regard.

Mizuno doesn't market to the masses. They are well known among mId to low handicap golfers, but are on the expensive side ($1600) and perhaps the Pro line also has a bit of an intimidation factor. p.s. Luke Donald is playing the 245s too
@waywardwest
@waywardwest 4 ай бұрын
I think that's exactly it. Good players that are familiar with Mizuno put them in the bag and don't change clubs that often. Higher handicap golfers are intimidated by the brand because they have always been marketed as a better players irons and they aren't going to spend that kind of money on clubs that they think they aren't good enough to play. Mizuno has never been a company to market their clubs rather they rely on their reputation to sell their merchandise, at least in the US market. When I was stationed in Japan they marketed their clubs pretty well but golf is more a status symbol there so it really, matters what's in your bag when everyone has Miura, Honma, and other super expensive forged irons.

I played the PING I230’s last year and they were great irons. I tried the Mizuno 245’s and immediately ordered a set. They are longer, fly higher, feel better, and are more forgiving than anything I’ve ever tried. Arguably, the best looking irons in the category of players distance irons. At $200 a club, they are pricey. I would suggest that golfers give these a try if they are looking for more out of their game. I was not disappointed.

Honestly, the reason I’m not looking at a set of these is price. 1300 USD before tax and shipping is hard to stomach. When their competitors (and don't mean Takomo, Caley, Sub70, etc though they are good options) like the Ping Is and Blueprints, Titleist 620, Cobra King Forged etc are all around that 1000 dollar mark. Hell even with Mizuno itself you have options in the form of the hot metal pro and forged. Now if you want a hollow body that looks like a blade these are hard to beat. But I've played with cavity backs my whole life. So the blade look isn't a must for me.

The problem is that this year the hollow body iron market is packed with really great clubs. 245 is a great club, but so is i530 (more marketing), T200 (again more marketing), P790, P770, PXG, Srixon ZX4, Cobra King Forged TEC, Apex Pro and that is just naming the bigger brands. And they are all pretty clubs. The competition in the hollow bodied market is insane this year.

Best irons I've played, and I've played almost every brand, were a set of Mizuno MX-20s. I almost never tried them because of their size and offset but so glad I did. Now every iron I try I keep comparing to them. My current set, Callaway Apex 21s are close. I am going to try the 245, 243, and Srixon ZX5 this week. I swear if I could find a new set of MX-20s I'd buy them in a heartbeat. The sole grind on the MX model was perfect for my swing and conditions where I play. I can't find any great images of these new Mizunos to compare which is why I'm also looking at the Srixons. I really like their "V" sole for playability.

From my testing of them, along with just about every other iron in the hollow bodied category, they just don’t feel like forged Mizunos. They feel great, but compared to some of the others, not very different. The 243 feels better and actually perform better for a lot of people…

I think price point is what is holding people back - the price inflation that manufacturers have to all golf equipment is outrageous & so folks are looking more frequently at the used market - the golf industry needs to take a look at its model (not just clubs but green fees etc as well)

They are gorgeous looking irons, no doubt. I would definitely buy them if I needed a new set. I'e been playing the Mizuno JPX series irons for the last 6 years but they just won't wear out.

No one likes a Mizuno, until they hit one, then they understand why they have a cult following, I always played Titleist, then I borrowed a set of Mizuno mp 33's. I haven't touched another brand since.

I'm currently playing MP20 SEL. The most amazing feel and look there is. I think they look even better than 241 version. I'll probably will upgrade in 2030. 😂 Mizuno makes the best clubs. Period.

The answer is simple..... prices. They are expensive. I am looking for a new set of irons but am hesitant to spend $1500.00 on a set of irons.

Thank you for the reply Andy! Keep up the great content! I was between the 225 last year and Pxg gen 6 0311p and went with the Pxg…best fitting in the business and really able to dial in the swing weight, lie, etc and I went with the double black and love them!

Simply the best Irons on the market. I agree, they don’t spend the money on advertising and they don’t have enough top tour players gaming their equipment. In many ways Mizuno is the best kept secret in the golf industry.

In all my years I can't say that I've ever seen a set of Mizuno irons in an everyday Joe's golf bag. I think the name Mizuno is bonded with the idea of becoming serious about your golf game. They are a higher end golf club both in cost and performance. And with the economy the way it is in my part of the world, folks are having to cut unnecessary expenses. Over the last few years I've replaced all of the golf clubs in my bag. And my bag too. It was long overdue. It was expensive. The cost of clubs now and what they were 12+ years ago had definitely shot up. But i saved for it. My next go round won't be as long in between and I'm going to have to be looking at either older, more affordable models or go with some of the higher performance moderate costs items like the Wilson irons mentioned or perhaps a direct to consumer brand like Tacomo. There has to be some money left in the jar for green fees. Ah, there's a whole other conversation - the rise of green fees.

Imo the JPX 923 forged feels better than 245. I think it’s because the forged is well, forged and the 245 is hollow body. The 923 forged is highly underrated.
