Billy-Bo-Jim-Bob Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Aesthetically, I actually think the 921 looks better in Tour & Forged. Sounds like a few of the tweaks will help with turf performance for folks on the steeper side.

This reminded me - I've been meaning to ask this for a while now: Why have Truespec (or any fitter, for that matter) build them up, as opposed to ordering directly from Mizuno? Is there a benefit there? Is it included in the cost of ordering through Truespec, or is it an added cost (I'm assuming along with the fitting)? I was thinking about doing a full-bag fit at TS, as it's currently 50% off, and then taking whatever I glean from it and ordering a new set of irons at some point next year, but I know they offer the "build" service - just curious what you saw as the advantage of that.

Glad you're liking them so far @Rickp, I saw your photos and they sure are awful pretty. The JPX line is a nice mixture of workable and forgiving.

Thanks! If you're fit into a specific shaft that isn't part of the Mizuno matrix, they (Truespec) would have to build them for you. You're definitely able to order direct from OEM, and you might be able to tell them during your fit that you don't want non-oem offered shafts, but I'm not 100% on that. Truespec doesn't want to leave it up to OEM to build though, they pride themselves in their build quality and can't provide that same guarantee otherwise. There's definitely a markup for them to build it, they're a business after all. It's up to you to decide if it's worth the extra money. For me, it is -- I'm trying to give myself less excuses to buy new clubs.

RichL85 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 My course had a fitting day with Mizuno at the course today. Decided to book a time and try some of the clubs since the demo options in my area are quite limited. Got warmed up and then tried out the shaft optimizer. That thing is pretty cool, but I was a little surprised by the recommendations it gave. Biggest shock was that it was saying I have a quick transition, whereas I feel like I have a very lazy, slow transition. Anyway, first shaft recommendation was the good old Dynamic Gold. Hit it in the 225, JPX 921 Forged (no 923 yet), and the 923 Hot Metal Pro. The Forged went out pretty quick, so between the 225 and HMP they were pretty close so we tried a different shaft. The Project X IO was not a good fit at all for me. Down about #7 on the list was the Modus3 120. As much as I like the KBS Tour that I have now, the feel of the Modus is just something special to me. Final combination was 923 HMP with Modus3 120. Hit my PXG against them and didn't see any huge differences either way. Both feel good, ball flight was very similar with both. In terms of personal preference, the Mizuno 225 sure is pretty for a forgiving iron. The 923 didn't have the same visual appeal for me for whatever reason.

dlow206 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Played my JPX 923 set for the first time today. Ordered my clubs more upright than normal and was hitting some balls at the range. Some clubs was hitting straighter, some clubs were going way right, like start line way right. Came home and checked the specs on my clubs. I have a Mitchell loft/lie machine, and some specs were way off. Needed to make sure it wasn't user error so I double checked with my standalone club spec gauge. Those measurements more or less matched my Mitchell measurements. For reference, my order was 2 degrees weak, 0.5 degrees upright. The specs i listed below are what I ordered (not the stock specs). What bothers me is all the clubs with the incorrect lie angle were even flatter than stock. One thing to note, all the clubs that were the correct loft, or close to the correct loft, were the ones with a lie angle issue. The ones that had the correct lie angle were the ones that were bent way too weak. cksurfdude, GolfSpy TCB, MattF and 1 other 3 1 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 07/15/2022 Driver: Rogue St Max LS - Autoflex Fairway Woods: Rogue Max St 3HL and 7 Wood Irons: JPX 921 Hot Metal 5 to AW - Aerotech Steelfiber i95 Stiff parallel tip Wedges: Glide 4.0 54 and 58 Putter: PLD Custom Kushin 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for folks that are unaware about these types of issues or folks that live far from a retail shop or builder, this could be problematic. its also good to know that me hitting balls in different directions wasn’t completely user error lol.
