Testing sessions around Japan have begun for the prelaunch of the new Mizuno JPX AD line for 2010. Thanks to Nikkan Sports we were able to get a preview of the new clubs including the new JPX Maraging face irons, JPX Forged irons.
Mizuno like many manufacturers have moved away from the titanium face to a maraging face on their GI irons which provide as hot feel and very good ball speeds. The JPX AD Maraging features a large pocket cavity and wide sole. This automatic iron is made for maximum forgiveness and distance.
The JPX Forged has always been a forged automatic model for the average golfer and the new JPX Forged are no different as they seem to sport an even thicker topline that previous models. Mizuno however has continued not to use a pocket cavity for the forged model to maintain the soft feel.
