As always, it is critical to be fit for these irons so you can hit the ball a long way and have it hold the green.

I found the Hot Metal Pro to be slightly lower launching and spinning than the standard version. Strong lofts also lead to lower launch and lower spin.
The JPX921 Hot Metal and Hot Metal Pro have fairly strong lofts which are a key part of how they create so much distance and ball speed. I found that the forgiveness is good, but it’s not a club I would recommend for the higher handicap player. Mizuno is also using a seamless cup face on these irons which helps to retain more ball speed on mishits. The Chromoly face is extremely thin which leads to very high ball speeds. On center, these irons are about as fast as anything you can buy. That combination is still the main selling point with the JPX921 Hot Metal Pro irons. What made the original Hot Metal Pro irons so intriguing was the combination of limited offset with forgiveness and ball speed. Through the hands, feedback isn’t precise but it’s good enough to get a general idea about how you struck the ball. Neither iron feels soft, but pure strikes do feel solid.įeedback is about what you’d expect from a game improvement iron. These irons feel very crisp on center but are much quieter than previous iterations. This is been improved markedly in the new version.īoth the JPX921 Hot Metal and the JPX921 Hot Metal Pro irons are made with the same Chromoly metal and feature a frighteningly thin face. My primary issue with the original Hot Metal Pro irons was the unpleasant feel. The branding is confined to the cavity and looks sharp. Both use a black and silver color scheme, eschewing any fancy paint fill colors. In the bag, the JPX921 Hot Metal Pro is nearly identical to the standard Hot Metal. Offset and blade length are the two ways that the Pro model differentiates itself from the standard Hot Metal irons. The top line is thinner than expected, and the use of two tones of silver makes it appear even slimmer. The Mizuno JPX921 Hot Metal Pro irons are game improvement irons without the offset. Does the latest version continue to offer golfers something they can’t find anywhere else? The biggest exception has been the Hot Metal Pro, which I praised when it was unveiled in 2018. A rare combination that can be great for combo sets.įor the last couple years, I’ve been critical of Mizuno for releasing too many irons that aren’t clearly differentiated.
The Mizuno JPX921 Hot Metal Pro irons are game improvement irons with plenty of ball speed but little offset.
