The best of 2025's new irons
It feels like this time every year we have new golf clubs land on our shelves, and they just keep getting better and better!
One of the best reasons to look forward to each new year is the release of new golf clubs! Plenty of you will be wondering where the past 12 months have gone, and when you feel that last year’s model still feels fairly fresh in your golf bag, you may be sceptical of just how much better 2025's irons can be.
Well, 12 months is a long time of R&D in the golfing world. Each season brings fresh feedback, data, and innovation, and Mizuno is on top of their game when it comes to refining and enhancing their golf gear. Today we want to walk you through the very latest Mizuno golf irons for 2025 and explain what makes them such an asset to have in the bag.
Without further ado, feast your eyes on the brand-new JPX925 Forged and Pro S-3 irons!
A fresh look
Innovating and changing thigs up with every release, Mizuno has updated their latest irons inside and out. The JPX925 iron has made plenty of aesthetic changes when compared to the previous JPX923 clubs.
When you take a look on the back of the clubhead, you’ll notice that Mizuno has made the conscious decision to shift the lettering on ‘Forged’ diagonally to fit with the style of the three-tiered cavity back. The model name has also moved from the back cavity to the hosel, allowing the Mizuno brand logo to take center stage. The design is certainly bold and inspiring, but while the new 2025 golf iron is nice to look at, how does it feel to play with?
The Tech inside
Mizuno is renowned for making irons that both look and feel amazing, and it’s the tech under the hood you have to thank for helping your approach shots land right where you want them to.
With an updated CORTECH design, the JPX925 Forged irons allow for greater distance while providing the same iconic Mizuno feel. The Contour Ellipse face has been fully reconstructed to achieve greater forgiveness. This new face feels fantastic having been brought to live through Mizuno’s unparalleled Grain Flow Forged HD crafting process.
