    Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This UA-cam channel is designed to help you play better golf, also to help you enjoy your golf more!
    I specialise in golf club reviews, golf club unboxing, golf club news, golf club head to heads, and all about golf clubs.
    I also want to make you play better golf by providing coaching video on all topics about golf, how to fix your slice, fix your hook, help you drive the golf ball longer, hit your irons more pure, hit your irons closer to the hole and help you draw and fade your golf shots.
    I will also help you lower your score by chipping better by stopping you duff and thin chips, pitch the ball closer and also create backspin. Also I will provide you help to putt better and hole more putts!
    On this channel I also make fun and entertaining golf content based on crazy and sometimes “gimmicky” golf clubs. I like to cut through the marketing hype about products and I like to give you the honest truth about golf equipment.
    If you enjoy the channel make sure you hit subscribe and also tap the notification bell so that you are always notified when I release a new video.

      Often I hit my irons long or the flag. So I don’t want less loft. I also don’t particularly like looking down on a iron and knowing it has less loft than what I’m used to.

      Rick,
      I was about to purchase the old MP line of Mizuno irons, when I heard the JPX 921 is about to come out. Love the video, looking really forward to the each individual line of Irons review. I’m hoping to be able to create a blended set that suits my game, even though I think the JPX 921 Tours are not forgiving enough for me.

I have a swing speed of around 125-130 and am about a +8 handicap.. these mizunos were consistently giving me an extra 30 metres and hitting cuts fades stingers or draws. I felt achieving these desiribly and consistently.. So I love them.. Thankyou ever so much for your tutorials.. Love your content watch every video.. im working on getting my handicap down obviously. I feel with your tutorials plus loads of game time and new irons im in with a fighting chance.. Again much thanks

    I'm a huge Mizuno fan ,, best thing I ever did in all my years of golf was to be professionally fitted for irons. That was three years ago this Spring, the iron of choice was the Mizuno JPX 900's " Hot Metal ". Beautiful irons from a great company ,, we fitted the irons with UST Mamiya Recoil 95 shafts ,, a perfect fit for me.
    One thing I will say about what we are looking at in this video ,, if I took a photo of one of my irons and compared it to the newest and latest same model you would notice practically no difference whatsoever.
    I enjoy all the postings from Rick Shiels Golf but let's be realistic, he is a professional golfer posting HIS opinion on new irons.

    • @TheProgGuy
      @TheProgGuy 4 роки тому

      I was thinking about that, although where would the break point be? If you're going from a 7 iron tour to a 6 iron forged, you have about 8 degrees of loft between clubs, almost too much gap between them. I don't know if he uses a 2 iron anymore, but under the assumption he does, I doubt he'll sacrifice a wedge or iron to fill the gap.

    Love the fact that Mizuno offers a Gap Wedge as part of the Tour and Forged sets. I wish more manufacturers would do the same. I hit my Gap Wedge mostly on full shots and it fits a specific yardage i find myself at often. I like my Gap Wedge to feel similar to my irons and it gives me confidence I can predict the ball flight.

I've shot 2 rounds with them since, and my confidence with them went up dramatically. My scores are still rather high, but again at 41 I've just started playing golf and I'm sure I'll get better in time. I hadn't seen this video yet when I went in and got fitted, now that I have and know your view on them, I feel even more confident having them.

Moved up to stiff JPX 800 Pros, about 5 years old, distance and forgiveness, and feel are even more perfect.

    The 4 & 5 are really easy to hit and the 4 was so strong that it pushed my 3 rescue out of my bag.
    Also fully recommend having a matching gap wedge, I mainly use it for full shots and as my preferred club to have left into the green follwing a lay up.
    From experience I really think that most mid handicap amateurs would be better off with forgiving long irons and a matching gap wedge.

    I finally got a new set of irons after way too long, I picked up the Hot Metal Pro and love them. I have to say I had one grip that was a little off, but given the Covid timeframe we are in, I will give them a little slack, I am sure they are doing their best to try to keep up with demand and timeframes to get clubs out to folks quickly. Thanks for the video Rick, your channel has inspired me to get out and play more and try to improve and enjoy the game :)

    Fine apart from the part where he referenced Taylormade, complained the grips were on wrong on his custom irons, said "chunkie" about 20 times, nearly killed a bird, couldnt hit a fairway with the long iron, said how strong the lofts where on the best sellers despite the fact they went higher, further and straighter.

    I play Mizuno MX25 now. I have had these in my bag for well over a decade. Now that I am performing my 62 trip around the sun and playing a bit less golf and out of shape a bit. ...I feel a slightly more forgiving club might be the order of the day. I love the feel and reward of a crisply struck Mizuno iron. I think that is why I have played them for so long but now I am considering the 919 Forged. I have some skil and can shoot a decent round. My consistency is way off right now. I want a more forgiving club with the feel I am used to. I hope these are the bad boys that fulfill that need. Thanks for the video.

    All sets are beautiful. I got a set of the 919 Hot Metal Pros almost two years ago and love them. I tried the Forged, Tour and Hot Metal. I had better distances with the HM but the look was too chunky and I tended to hit them left. The HM Pro came out about a month or so later and they were perfect. While not a soft feeling iron, they were certainly more than acceptable. Thanks for the review, Rick. Looking forward to the full reviews of all of the 921’s.

I actually ordered them only one degree weak but there must have been some misunderstanding. The 921 Forged seams to be is one degree stronger than 919 so the gap will be even larger...

  • @sammindlin2132
    @sammindlin2132 4 роки тому

    So my honest opinion Rick as a fellow professional golfer and certified club-fitter, I think you would be best actually doing a blended set if you are having issues with your longer irons. I, like yourself, am lucky to have access to full sets of clubs and try out longer irons instead of just the 7 iron in fittings. I currently game the Callaway Apex Pro Irons but was having similar issues with the 4 and even 5 iron with performance, especially on the off center hits. What I ended up doing is going to the more forgiving Apex irons and that has helped me loads with confidence and performance with the longer irons. I did ask for the irons from the factory to be a couple degrees weaker to fill in the gaps better and the results are much improved. Plus I have the confidence to hit the longer irons out of tougher lies without going to a hybrid (although I am testing a Mavrik Pro 4 Hybrid and so far the numbers are stunning). So personally, I had to swallow my pride as a pro and go for performance because as a teacher and fitter I don't have as much time to play and practice. I recommend you do something the same if you were to pick the Mizuno irons. I would suggest, as a fitter, you get the Forged Tour Irons 6 iron through PW and then use the 921 forged for the 4 and 5 irons and have them bent probably 2 degrees weaker which Mizuno will gladly do to fill in your gaps. Anyways love the video and all your content and keep it coming! Happy belated 1M subscribers!

    I play the 919 Tours 3-PW and they are simply amazing. I don't think they're scary at all, they are much easier to hit than a true blade and the traditional lofts suit me down to the ground. Personally, I prefer the more chilled look of the 919s, but still a beautiful set of irons. Can't go wrong Rick!

    I find that my Mizuno 919 Tour long irons do very well out of tough lies. Sometimes a lie just doesn't let you play a 4-5 iron as we saw with the 5 iron, but in general, they glide nicely through long grass.
