Mizuno teases new JPX-900 woods, irons in video
Coming in September, Mizuno’s new JPX-900 line. While we’re still waiting to hear official details about the company’s new driver, fairway wood, hybrid and irons, much can be learned about the clubs from Mizuno’s teaser video, which was released on Facebook today.
According to the video, the JPX-900 driver (which was added to the USGA Conforming Club List earlier this month) uses two 8-gram slidable weights to alter trajectory. The JPX-900 fairway wood uses a single sliding weight, as well as the company’s new Shockwave sole. The JPX-900 hybrid also uses the new Shockwave sole, which we can safely say from the name will have ball speed benefits.

The JPX-900 irons appear to come in three different models:
- JPX-900: A distance iron made from a material called Chromoly 4140M.
- JPX-900 Forged: A players iron forged from 1025E boron steel.
- JPX-900 Tour: A blade-like iron forged from 1025E carbon steel.

In the past, Mizuno’s JPX iron line has showcased the company’s latest technologies, and has usually appealed to higher-handicap golfers than the company’s MP line. With the latest JPX iron release, however, it appears that the line could be blurring — at least in terms of size and shape. As for the technologies in the new clubs, we’ll just have to wait a little longer to hear exactly what Mizuno has done.
See what GolfWRX Members are saying about the new irons in our forum.
Tour Edge Golf has today introduced the all-new Exotics mini driver, engineered to deliver a powerful combination of speed, control, and versatility in the long game.
The Exotics Mini combines a titanium face with a stainless-steel body in design to balance ball speed with stability and control, creating a versatile option at the top end of the bag.
At the core of the design is Tour Edge’s proprietary Combo Brazing technology, a high-precision thermal bonding process that seamlessly fuses a titanium cup face to a stainless-steel body into a single, continuous structure. By eliminating energy loss found in traditional multi-piece constructions, Combo Brazing is designed to deliver faster face response, more efficient energy transfer, and a uniquely powerful yet controlled feel.
The multi-material construction also allows mass to be positioned lower and deeper in the head in a bid to increase stability, while the thin titanium face is engineered to maintain ball speed across a wider impact area.
“While the initial goal was to enhance control and versatility in the long game, Combo Brazing ultimately drove measurable gains in ball speed and distance within the mini driver category. In robot testing, we’ve documented higher ball speeds, higher launch, reduced spin, and increased carry and total distance compared to leading models.” – Vice President of R&D Matt Neeley
In addition to distance performance, the Exotics mini emphasizes forgiveness through a heavier stainless-steel body that shifts mass toward the perimeter. This configuration increases MOI relative to traditional all-titanium mini drivers, helping preserve ball speed and directional stability on off-center strikes. Paired with Pyramid Face Technology from the Exotics metalwood line, the design is intended to support consistent speed across the face.
To further enhance MOI, a lightweight carbon fiber crown frees additional mass that is strategically repositioned low and deep in the head in design to improve stability and promote optimal launch with controlled spin.
“We designed the Mini to be about five millimeters shallower than other mini drivers on the market. That change improves playability off the deck. From a clean fairway lie, it can function as a strong 3-wood alternative while still providing control off the tee.” – Tour Edge CEO David Glod
An adjustable hosel system allows for loft and lie tuning to dial in trajectory and shot shape, while a fixed 13-gram rear weight helps stabilize the head through impact to improve dispersion consistency. The Exotics Mini Driver is available in 11.5 and 13.5-degree lofts in right-handed models.
Pricing & Availability
The Exotics Mini Driver is available for pre-order beginning today for $399.99 USD at touredge.com, and will be available for purchase at retail outlets worldwide on May 22, 2026.
In our forums, our members have been pitting a Srixon ZXi combo against a TaylorMade P7CB/770 combo. WRXer ‘edutch22’ is on the hunt for a new set of irons and kicks off the thread saying:
“Looking at picking up a new set of irons and think I’ve narrowed it down to Srixon ZXi combo or Taylormade P7CB/770 combo. I am currently a 5 cap and allbeit I feel irons are my weakness. My miss is a little to the toe side. I am decently steep at 4-5 down. Always thought I am high spin but recently on trackman my 7 was spinning at 5800 roughly.
My question or looking for thoughts on which one would benefit me more from a forgiveness standpoint? Or is there another iron is should be looking at entirely? I only get to play about once or twice a week, if I am not playing a 2-3 day event. Thanks in advance.”
And our members have been sharing their thoughts and suggestions in response.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- manima1: “You just can’t go wrong with Srixon ZXi7.”
- MattM97: “You have to hit them to know, the V-Sole on the Srixon can be make or break for many.”
- dmeeksDC: “P7CB is more forgiving for me than ZXi7 because my main miss is low middle and the P7CB still flies and spins great on that miss. These are both really nice irons but I like the P7CB more than the Zxi7 and the P770 (or P790) more than the Zxi5. The Srixons are larger so if that gives you confidence that is the way to go. I don’t feel like I get any benefit from the V-sole and the P7CBs live up to their high Maltby forgiveness rating so the TaylorMades have been great for me.”

Unless I’m missing something, it looks like Mizuno is no longer stocking the right handed 850 forged. Lefts are still available.

I have the 850 forged and I love ’em. Nissan shafts at no upcharge. The 900’s have something to live up to, let alone surpass.

I don’t quite understand these comments about a manufacturer coming out with regularly updated club lines. To follow this logic to its natural conclusion, it seems some want club manufacturers to come out less often with new lines. To what end? To box them in and to doom them as a “niche” market brand? Companies are in business to make money. Today’s markets dictate certain marketing strategies and, obviously, Mizuno, TM, Callaway, Nike and most every other major club maker have decided they need to keep buyers interested by introducing new stuff every couple of years. No one is forcing you to buy the new clubs; thanks to GolfWRX, there’s lots of old, used clubs for sale on the private market.

What are you on about? This isn’t Callaway or TMAG. The JPX, JPX EZ and MP lines are all on 2 year cycles. JPX due for refresh now, MP due for refresh in fall 2017, EZ due for refresh in spring 2018. Better get your clock checked.

Have the forged Mizuno jpx 850 boron..Have yet to find anyone that hits one not say “Love how that feels, when your done with them can I have them”. Flush an 8 iron and it feels like you just sliced through butter and ball is gone….

I use to have Mizuno clubs ,the MP600 driver ahead of the times.MX 400 great game improvement
Stuff . I like these so much I would give them a test run.

The Tour’s look clean and the Forged look good but not great. Remove the JPX 900 logo up by the toe and make it smaller replacing the Mizuno text logo and they would be really fresh.

Smizzle acting like Mizuno’s releases are as frequent as his posts. Don’t matter. He makes the board more lively. Keep ’em coming, friend.
FWIW I wouldn’t mind seeing releases every 5 years. For every TM Bubble Shaft breakthrough there are 100+ no-improvement rev generators. If I had a dollar for every ‘gain 5-10 yds!’ claim from clubmakers (and celeb teaching pros – I’m talking to you, Hank), well, I’d have a lot of dollars. Very few yardage gains, though.

My favorite parts of Mizuno have always been: #1 feel, and #2 simple and refined looks. Unfortunately only the feel looks like it will be remaining, which undoubtedly still be pretty dang good.

Jul 26, 2016 at 2:48 pm
Wish they made forged cavity backs in the same metal as the tours. Didn’t care for the boron and Mizuno has never been into “distance” until recently. But I’m gonna hit em ASAP regardless.
Mizman
Jul 26, 2016 at 3:15 pm
Well, THAT is a forged CB in that very metal you want. So it IS the club you want. Duh
