Sound and Feel Mizuno JPX 800 Irons- Perfect golf clubs

Having said goodbye to the MX series this year, Mizuno had the new JPX series waiting in the wings to fill the game improvement gap. Of course I jumped at the opportunity to review the new Mizuno JPX 800 Irons, since they deliver outstanding sound and feel, which help Mizuno win popularity. Read on to find more about the irons.

 

Much Praised Look and Feel

Though distance and forgiveness were key design goals/intentions, Mizuno’s engineers didn’t forget what has made them so popular – that much praised sound and feel. They are a big jump into the game improvement category for Mizuno Golf.To achieve their high standard for these qualities, Modal Analysis and Harmonic Impact Technology was used to tune everything to perfection. As a side note, you may not be aware, but the other major contributor to the sound and feel is the Grain Flow Forging process, proving that this quality is a consideration from the very beginning.

Unique Metallurgical Savvy

The fact is simply that Mizuno, like several other companies, have figured that alpha maraging steel makes a hotter iron face than does titanium. An iron’s face does not allow enough space for the spring-like effect to take place with titanium. It takes a driver or an over-sized fairway metal in order for that to happen. Mizuno, whose metallurgical savvy has been well known for years, have come up with a super hot alpha maraging steel alloy, and found a way to poind it so thin that the face has noi choice but to act like a spring on impact. Whether you buy into the hype of “Max COR Technology” or not, the fact remains that the science behind it is very good, and that Mizuno has found a way to make their JPX 800 Irons faces thinner, and thus springier. 

 

From Mizuno

The JPX-800 is an iron specifically designed to be amazingly forgiving and explosively long. The unbelievable distance of the irons is achieved by combining MAX COR Technology, Hot Metal™ Face construction, and an exotic pocket cavity to hit the maximum allowable limits for energy transfer, far exceeding previous Mizuno irons, and the competition.

An aggressive triple cut sole ensures solid ball striking from all types of lies, and a multi-material cavity badge provides tuned impact sound with enhanced feel and sharp looks. The JPX 800 Irons utilize the world’s most advanced game improvement technologies to help the serious mid to high-handicap player score like never before.

 

Overall, these irons are the new flagship of Mizuno, for they boast all the unique features of the brand. If you have used Mizuno golf clubs and feel great about them, these irons will be a great choice to replace your previous clubs.
