Mizuno
JPX 925 Forged
The Mizuno JPX 925 Forged is a players cavity iron released in 2025, designed for low to mid handicappers (typically 0–12 HCP) who want a players' look at address with a touch more forgiveness than a full blade. The cavity provides perimeter weighting that supports slightly off-centre strikes. The 2025 model's 7-iron is lofted at 30.5°, sitting in the moderate range that balances distance and gapping.

About the Mizuno JPX 925 Forged
The Mizuno JPX 925 Forged features a classic cavity back construction that redistributes weight to the perimeter for improved MOI while maintaining the look and feel preferred by lower-handicap golfers. At impact it delivers a blend of feedback and forgiveness, with a slightly softer sensation than a blade on well-struck shots.
Loft Analysis
The Mizuno JPX 925 Forged's 7-iron is lofted at 30.5° — near-traditional — close to the classic 32–34° benchmark. For a golfer with an 85–95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 148–158 yards. The 5-iron (24°) to 7-iron gap of 6.5° is well-gapped, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids.

- ✓Players who want some perimeter weighting without a game-improvement look
