In a word Butter. They are both fantastic. Leaning the 221 realm right now but who knows. They both felt absolutely fantastic. Numbers for both were pretty consistent and fell between the below. I am not a number cruncher but I think they are good. Feel alone either one I am going to love. 221: 225: Buy both so you can decide. Sell me the others.

Popular Post Bigchill006 12 Posted May 24 Popular Post Share Posted May 24 (edited) Well, I jumped on the Mizuno band wagon! I went to be fitted for clubs back in February and I hit all 3 of the new line. The 221s felt great but I am not a scratch golfer so they were quite unforgiving for my swing. The 223s gave me a little more carry and were much more forgiving. The 225s gave me about the same carry as the 223s, but were just a tad more forgiving on a few mishits. I ordered a set (5-PW) of 225 with the Project X LZ shafts. They just came in a couple of days ago and I just finished hitting the range with them. I obviously haven't hit them much but so far I am extremely happy. I will be hitting the course in the next few days and I'll keep everyone updated!

GolfSpy_BOS 16,078 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Hot damn. I didn’t need to see the 225s win most wanted players distance iron, but for some reason now I want them even more! Maybe it’s just seeing them again, but I’ll need to try them out for a more proper demo/fitting and see if they can kick the Forged Tec out of the bag! 1 3 Quote Epic Max LS 10.5 - Motore X F3 6x | Speedzone 5-wood - Ventus Blue 8s | TSi3 20* Hybrid - KBS Proto 85s KING Forged Tec 5-GW - Nippon Modus 120x | KING MIM Black 52.12C, 56.10V, 60.04W - Nippon Modus 125 Wedge ER2B | Pro V1x | NX9 Slope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxrock 0 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Mizuno 221s are lovely but not, I think, as pleasing to the eye as the exceptional MP20s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfist 4 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Wow - 90 days/12 weeks lead time !!! My JPX 921 HM Pro/Forged order took exactly 8 weeks but ordered in early March - comments; — KBS shafts were long LT back then — GolfPride was back ordered 2 million pcs. (all customers, fitters, shops, etc) per TXG -- a local fitter told me Mizuno moved to a new plant to increase production but is short-staffed (like many plants) and Amazon moved into the old plant and took some employees — I’m not skilled enough to detect a degree off in lie & loft but given others QC issues @ assembly I will have them checked 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossil 8 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Commenting on this subject would be wrong. I am a 14 handicap and presently play the mizuno jpx 2019 hot metal and find them to be long, accurate and forgiving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lmerrick 134 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 I made the switch from JPX 921 tour 4-7 and MP 20 8-PW to 221 7-Pw, 223 4-6 and 225 3 iron. Made loft adjustments to close gaps in transitions.

While everyone is of course free to play whatever they want, I have never understood playing a full set of MB's unless shooting your lowest score is not your main goal or as some say not a goal at all. I understand playing a full set of MB's for fun. That said many better players might find very little difference (if any) using MB's in their scoring irons. I really love your new irons that produce exactly what we all want. Accuracy in the scoring irons, just a little help in the mid irons and all the help you can get in a long iron. Even the guys on tour play a more forgiving 3/2 iron. 1 Quote Driver: LTDx 10.5* ... AD-IZ 6SR Fairway: SIM2 Max 15/16.5/18* ... Tensei Raw Blue 65R Utility: UDi 18* ...
