Amazing honest down to earth review ! Thank for helping me out feel better about my purchase. I had massive fomo missing out on a slightly reduced forged jpx 921. I instead went for a new set of jpx 921 hot metal pro. Considering I am no way near tour level pro. I feel the better look and forgiveness of the hmp will do just fine !
Well done Andrew. What I have found is that a forged club provides more consistent distances across the face where a cast club can tend to have a hot spot on it that will send the ball 10-15 yards longer than normal on that occasional perfect swing lol. Forged clubs do require more maintenance than cast clubs (lofts and lies should be checked annually) and I believe that the softer metal used in forged clubs can make them slightly more prone to wear more quickly.
If you go with Mizuno, you go with forged clubs. Forging is the key here, Mizuno is famous in forging. If you select cast iron, you may go with anything
Thanks for this review Andrew. From whatI’ve seen you’re the only guy who’s done this comparison. It seems to me that a lot of HMP players, like me, are interested in the next step up the ladder, ie Hot Metal forged. That said, I love my 919 HMP’s.
Sole width, top line thinner on forged, better on the eyes. Also, can’t see the back of the 7 iron on the forged, 2’ in loft difference. I had the 919 HM and just switched to 921 forged. No looking back, love them!
Feel is subjective ..but I felt for sure the difference between the JPX 921 Tour , Forged and the MP20MB. For me the MP20 MB gave the buttery feel , the Tour also very soft but not buttery as the MP20 MB and the Forged soft but also for me more “springy” / “ clicky” feeling. But as I mentioned feel is subjective and is also (mostly) influenced by what you hear.
Great review. I have all 3 sets of the 919...HMP, Forged and Tour. Have been mixing them but have come to find that the HMP's just go left a lot. Definite draw bias vs the other 2. Love the look and feel of the tours but on days when the swing isn't there, they don't make golf fun! So that leaves me the Forged. Probably the best setup but they look big. Just ordered the 921F and am excited to see how they perform...
Great content Andrew. I have a rather old set of Mizuno mp30 irons that are rather hard to hit the older that i get . The lofts are a lot weaker with my 7 iron at 35 degrees . Anxious to swing both of these . Thanks again !
I am in the exact same boat with Mp30's. My swing just hasn't been at the level I need for MP30 anymore, and it drives me crazy having to club up with the soft lofts. What did you decide on, and was it worth it? I'm debating on one of these myself.
@@aaronburbach4391 I went with the new Mizuno Pro 225s . I ordered them a month ago and should get them this week. Had them bent 2 degrees weak on 6 thru Pw for gap purposes in my wedges. Can't wait to get them.....
Afternoon Andrew, another great and honest review from you as always. I really respect your opinion and would like to get fitted for a set of Mizuno irons by you. Please let me know when you are next available for a fitting and I’ll make sure to contact you again. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Hi Charles, you are welcome to come for a fitting. You can contact me through my website. www.andrewainsworthgolfacademy.com Please be advised that the wait for custom fit irons from Mizuno could be up to 6 weeks at the moment.
The main difference, and the reason why I went with the forged, was that shaping shots was easier with the forged. Even though there was not too much difference in the feel, the forged definitely felt a bit softer.
I play Calloway Apex Pro forged irons. I'd be interested in the JPX921 forged but they don't come left handed. I did switch from a Calloway driver and 3 wood to Mizuno ST200 and love them. Would like a ST200 5 wood but Mizuno doesn't build one for lefties. One of these days maybe they'll recognize there are lefties out there as they are losing some potential sales. Fwiw. i'm 69 years old and play off a 9 handicap.
Great honest and no thrills review. Looking at going and testing these out as looking at change from my Z565 forged Srixons. Interesting you can’t feel any difference between the two clubs.
Great review Andrew! Long time Mizuno fan, I’m sure ive mentioned this before but i have had 2 sets of Mizuno irons.. in 2010 i was fit for MP-58’s, played with them for nearly 7 years,, loved them but obviously they weren’t very forgiving. In 2017 i was fit for JPX-900 Forged,felt the BORON made them a little hard feeling and had a issue with the 8 iron with the grooves collapsing.. After about 20 rounds and 1 year i tried to get a replacement 8 iron but Mizuno said they out of warranty.. (By nearly a month). I wound up replacing the 8 iron then selling the set on eBay So now I’m “IRONLESS” after selling my Callaway Apex ‘19 Pro Forged irons because i wasn’t getting enough backspin... Will be going for a custom fit early next year and my 3 contenders will be Mizuno JPX-921, Ping i210 and TM P770. Independent of price which iron would you pick ? The Ping i210’s are a players iron and the 921’s and the 770’s are players distance irons , so really not a direct comparison. Looks, feel & forgiveness will be my deciding factors.
Simon Thompson thats not one my choices.. the HMB are for high handicap beginners for the most part... I’ve been playing for nearly 25 years and my index is 2.4
@@stephendibari5010 I’m going in for a fitting next week for the 921 forged and taking 5 and 4 in the HMP. I’m off 6, used to be off 3 back in the day. Need the feel for the scoring irons and need the extra forgiveness and ball flight from the longer irons. Maybe worth checking out a combo also
@@stephendibari5010 You could even try the Tours for PW-9/8 iron and blend 3 sets of the 921 range. Have to be careful with the gapping but I’ve read on a number of blogs this is possible and it then gives you that extra smooth transition into your wedges (which I assume are the players forged type)
for fun I went and tried these at my local shop, I couldn't feel a difference between the Forged or HMP. besides the price which was considerable!! I also tried the Ping 425, it was nice but HUGE... probably a good 1/2 inch larger than either of the Mizuno's. I currently play the Ben Hogan PTX pro and the Mizuno's feel about the same.
I don't think its the forging that makes them feel softer, its that most forged clubs are made of a softer carbon steel. If you have a non forged club made of chromoly and a forged club made of chromoly, they're probably going to feel close to the same.
Great video, really good to see that you are hitting similar distances to me rather than watching some top athlete smashing a 7 iron over 200 yards and telling us how much he feels the forged iron, I mean how can we relate to that? Anyway after playing with my own clubs for 25 years I have ordered the HM Pro’s. I hit these more consistently than the forged. I was even tempted by the Hot Metals but felt better dialled into the Pro’s. A blind test would easily catch out most of the forged snobs!
Hi, thanks for the comments.The HM pro's are a great club.You are so right am sure a blind test would reveal the truth. Good luck with the new clubs. Regards Andrew
@@andrewainsworth497 thanks, the Mizunos are on 8 week delivery here in Australia so another month I think, it’s like waiting for Xmas! On a related note, I realised just how sensitive clubs are to shaft selection. Maybe an idea for a video for you there? Show how sensitive the characteristics are and how they affect performance.
I ordered the ultimate set lately , 4/5 iron hot metal pro 6-7-8 iron forged 9-pw tour Project x lz 6.5 Standard length +2 upright Really pleased with the fit , not sure when they will arrive but looking forward to playing 2021 with them 😃
Thanks for the reviews really appreciate it. I got fit for HMP on Monday but did not get to hit the forged. Coming off playing ping i20s for years and I am worried about the considerable sole width on the HMP, wondering if I should hit the forged and maybe change the order. Curious your input. Also he fit me for KPS tour 90s but as a 13 HC and fairly strong swing speed I am second guessing...
another great video Andrew. thanks for the content. I am new to mizuno but am curious, do they make their clubs shorter in shaft length as standard compared to others. I have seen other videos on youtube and the shaft length gets mentioned being longer than standard. i did see a video recently where it was noted mizuno do make their clubs slightly shorter - say half an inch? perhaps I misheard this but wondering if you know if this is the case. I am only 5.7 so a shorter length shaft appeals greatly to me as all my current clubs are standard off the shelf and I feel I am missing a trick here! Thanks again
I Peter, there is no industry standard on length anymore, they vary so much. Mizuno for me produce correct lengths, lots of the cranked lofted bomber irons are made longer as well. Best thing is to go and get fitted rather than buy off the shelf.
Thanks Andrew. Yes bop to get fitted over here in Ireland I’m coming weeks. Mizuno is top of list now but I’m sure you will have a few videos on other brands over next while to make me think!
Yes, £1,000 is a fair piece of change but really not so different from what I paid for Ping Gs about 3 years ago. I also rationalized the price on a per round basis and that convinced she who must be obeyed. This video has me now asking myself Ping or Mizuno? Similar prices here in Australia so that's not a differentiator, and the Mizuno quality is right up there (or is it Andrew?). Mizuno irons are appealing but what are your thoughts on their drivers, Fairways and hybrids? Or, just as an aside, how do you feel about mixing brands in your bag?
Andrew great video, How did you get into doing these videos? I might start something up here in the US like it. (More about lessons and tips) Thank you Now I am going to try out these 2 clubs for myself and see what I like better
Hi Steve, pretty straight forward really, get a camera, i phone, some editing software and away you go. Loads of videos on YT to help you get started. Good luck on your channel. Best regards Andrew
I have a blended set with the tours and the forged. Wanted to blend a 3 iron in there so I ordered a hot metal 4 iron since its 3 degrees difference and is 'hot'. Good idea?
What about adjusting the lie on a forged club as opposed to a cast club? I accept that you cannot tell the difference in feel between the Mizuno forged and chromoly Hot Metal clubs.
Would be confident to move them two degs, in a good loft and lie machine. Not sure about 3 degs, maybe make contact with Mizuno direct fora definitive answer.
Hi Stephen, good question, always worked a low ball flight and pretty comfortable with it. Years of links golf have driven the ball low. Maybe do a video with some high launching shafts.
@@andrewainsworth497 This would be a great video to see Andrew. Would be curious to see how a low shaft compares to a high shaft and by how much? great idea
Very good to see you again. So, no difference in feel between them. How about sound then? By the way, that was a deep look into your nightmare, haha. The adventures of Capt Left Hook Ainsworth.
12:49 Well the 921 forged is Forged and is made out of chromoly. So how could you tell the difference. And as we get older, our sensitivity isn’t as keen.
Forge will give you better consistant ball carry, Hot metal giving different distances. I have forge on order with the Nippon Neo shaft ... December delivery !!
Hi Andrew. Such an honest and unbiased review! Thanks. I’m currently gaming a 2017 p790 and love them. I’m contemplating on shifting to Mizuno jpx921. What model will you suggest? The forged or HMP? Thank you in advance.
@@andrewainsworth497 booked in on the 7th 👍 currently playing T100 and not getting on with them gone up 2 shots in a year through mishits and bad putting.
@@andrewainsworth497 indeed. Issue is I need them 3-4° upright and most cast can only go 2°. I've always played PING irons as their fitting system suited me immensely. Just bought the 921 forged with a 6 week backorder 😒

Hot Metal Pro was noticeably longer for me vs the 921 Forged. About half a club.
Hi David, thanks for watching.
Workability I'd say forged should be easier to fade or draw plus distance contol
Depends on who is hitting them!
Andrew...other then the loft difference...which club did you feel was more forgiven to hit and perform on miss hits.....Thanks.. for this review...
Nothing in it to be honest. Go and get a fitting and you will probably find which club performs best for you.
I have a blended set with the tours and the forged. Wanted to blend a 3 iron in there so I ordered a hot metal 4 iron since its 3 degrees difference and is 'hot'.
Good idea?
I have the SEL set so the forged 4 iron is 22 degrees
Thanks for the info, I’m considering the mizuno club’s
Cant go wrong with a set of Mizuno irons, make sure you get a fitting before you buy.
More distance consistency from the forged..?
I think you might have to make room in your diary for me....😉👌
Hi Ian, maybe just came down to strike, did not feel much difference.
What about adjusting the lie on a forged club as opposed to a cast club? I accept that you cannot tell the difference in feel between the Mizuno forged and chromoly Hot Metal clubs.
Hot Metal Chromoly can be adjusted in a loft and lie machine.
Hi Andrew would there be much of a performance difference between these clubs and a 6 year old set of irons? ( they would definitely look better!)
Good question, only way to find out is go and try some!
How bendable are the hmp? I play my irons 3° upright from mizuno standard so maybe I would have to pay the extra for the forged?
Would be confident to move them two degs, in a good loft and lie machine. Not sure about 3 degs, maybe make contact with Mizuno direct fora definitive answer.
I bought the hot metal pros over the forged because I couldn’t tell the difference in feel at all.
Good choice Steve.

12:49 Well the 921 forged is Forged and is made out of chromoly. So how could you tell the difference. And as we get older, our sensitivity isn’t as keen.

Just ordered a set of hot metal pros felt just as good as the forged plus hm pro in the us 400 dollars less
