Mizuno 921 trial feedback


caller

Recommended Posts

I went ahead and hit 

921

Forged

Hotmetal Pro

Hotmetal

all in PX 5.5 shafts with each 7i head.

 

Average swing speed 82 mph

Average ball speed 113 mph

Average carry 160 yards

Average total distance 172 yards

 

I was surprised all were very closed.

 

Take away
I initially thought the forged was harder to hit but it gave me the most consistent data and faster ball speed with baby draw!

HM Pro was ok and slightly less numbers with straight shots

HM was higher launch but same or less distance with pushed shots!

 

Forged felt the best with most speed for some reason. I think I will go with Forged instead of HM Pro.

 

I always played GI irons but this was a pleasant surprise.

Yes, Mizuno has something I really want.

 

Wondering if 921 Forged 5i and 6i are as easy as 7i I hit today. If not, I would go with HM Pro on 5-6 and Forged 7~P mixed bag. 

 

Project X works well on those heads much more so than KBS for my swing.

Excellent choice. 

I must say HMP is a excellent club but Forged is just perfect even with not a perfect swing.

Can't wait to test these. Was debating a combo set myself. I haven't hit the forged yet. Was debating 5-7hmp 1* week and 8-lw forged. Not sure on shafts.

I am not a strong iron player so I ruled out Forged from the beginning. 

HM and HMP  VS P790 and P770 were compared.


I tried Forged to feel the club but I found myself hitting clean and pure shots after shots. This is supposed to be "less forgiving" club but it exceeded my expectation and more.

The JPX offerings are just stupid easy to hit.  I hit the 921 HM Pro and Forged the other day.  I was seeing 189-203 carry with an average 126 ball speed. The clubs also seemed to like an X-shaft for me (I have been playing PX 6.0).  The C-taper 130X was very good with that club and really tightened up the dispersion while bringing the ball flight down somewhat.  

 

I want a set!  Although I would prefer weaker lofts.  That is just short of my current 5-iron carry; I would buy the forged in 5-PW and get a 48/52/56/60 wedge set.  Problem is, I bet that is a 145-150 PW and a forged 48 degree PW isn't going to be as long as a set PW; not even close.  Probably a good 10 yards shorter. When I switched from a set SW (57 degree) to a forged model, I lost 10 yards (which was fine) and picked up spin and a tighter dispersion.  115 with 125 fliers to a automatic 105.
