Mizuno JPX921 SEL (and mixed tours for righties

CUJAYS34 · October 21, 2020

So I took delivery of these SEL's yesterday. They are beautiful, a little intimidating, and sound great! I'm considered a high handicapper, 18. I've been playing the same Callaway x-18's for about the last 15 years, no real movement in my handicap. I ordered these and had em fit, 1 up, Project x LZ 120g 6.0 Shafts with the CP2 wrap grips. I was worried this club is a bit advanced for my skill set. I tell ya what, it is! It's ok though. Hit em today at a par 3 course just up the street. Miss hits didn't smoke my hands, and only beat me up on distance, but when you flush one, the angels sing. Feel is the real star with these clubs. Landings are soft, and stuck. It's a club shorter, but I expected that going from game improvement clubs to forged clubs. It's also cold out so that may have something to do with it also, but I'm putting it on user error. My swing speeds are pretty slow, mid to high 80's and the shafts seemed to be right on. They are a lot of fun. If you are a low to mid handicapper, you will love these. I'm hoping to join those ranks soon. BTW, the 5 iron is a forged, the ball EXPLODES off of those. I hit one 210 which is a mile for a 5 iron for me. If you are a high handicapper like me, don't be afraid to give these a look, I've got all winter now for lessons!

Mizuno has done a great job on improving an already solid lineup.

Always great to hear the excitement from a new set of irons and a set that will sexy up any bag!

I’m looking at the 921 Forged to battle the J15s over the winter and it looks like we may see a changing of the guards after many years!

Enjoy the new sticks and thanks for sharing.

theyre great clubs. i went 919 forged bc it was a little too thin for me (and im a lefty like you) but when you hit it pure, it was amazing. if the look is sometihng you like, dont worry about what hdcp they were made for.

MP20 blades are awesome. And for “blades” they’re actually fairly forgiving.

I actually tried to go with the 919 forged lefty's over the summer but they ran out! In the SEL's the 4 and 5 are forged. I only went 5-GW. I have a renewed love for the game, as the challenge of learning these will be fun. As Roxald said above, I'm not worried who they're made for, I'm looking forward to having fun and getting better! Stupid Winters!
