Just waiting for the day you can make this your full time job (KZfaq). The quality of content you produce is so clean, precise, and enjoyable. Keep it up!

80 year old, mid-capper trying to slow the inevitable decline … currently researching irons for upcoming purchase … this test, along with the interesting and relevant accompanying one with your mid-cap buddy, are definitely the BEST I’ve ever seen. Thank you for your work.

I put JPX 923 Hot Metal HL in the bag 6 months ago...OMG transformational.

love the idea of bringing in a high handicap golfer

I was fitted a few months ago and my top 2 were the JPX 923 HM and the Paradym X with the Ping G430 a little behind. The price difference between the Mizuno and Callaway was several hundred dollars so I am now playing a custom set of JPX 923 HM!

As a 8 handicapper... Taylormade Stealth HD irons are by far and away the best game improving irons on the planet. If you have not tried them... run to your nearest PGA Super Store and do yourself a favor. These irons have made hitting my 7 thru 5 irons fun again at age 65 and the height on all of my iron shots have improved dramatically. I've had to supplement my set with Titleist 505 3 and 4 hybrid irons to round out my TM HD set because TM decided not to include a 3 or 4 iron as options to the HD sets. They are not quit as easy to hit as the TMs but close.

Hot Metals all the way for me. Love them

I have the srixon zx4 mk2s and definitely the best clubs i ever owned. My previous set was a set of ping G25s and normally shoot in the 90s ans my last 2 games with the srixons i shot 81and 80.

Just got fitted today and it was a toss up between the JPX 923 and the ZX 4 Mk II. Ended up with Srixon. Love your content

Love the content. Just getting back to the game after many years away. The video with your dad was great. Keep it up!

I’m currently playing to a 4. I have 3 rounds w my new jpx forged irons and they’re pretty good. Switched from pxg 0311p . Mizuno is a quality iron and arguably the best value.

I had a swing with all these in my fitting then at the end i got given the wilson Dynopower clubs . I thought it was miles ahead & so much better on price. Love your reviews mate keep up the great content

05:26 - If You’re wondering why I hit the Taylormade P790 instead of the Stealth

Great Vlog dude. I'm in the market for new irons and 50 years old so this vlog was brilliant for me. Srixon will get my hard earned cash.

I went for my testing this wk end. Tried P790, Srixon ZX4, Paradym, Titleist 350, Mizuno Hot Metals, and Ping I525s. Honestly they all felt sweet to hit. Was a hard decision to make. Narrowed it down to ZX4 and Paradyms. Ended up going with the Paradyms. Hit them more consistently. 7 iron on average 186 yds total. Ball speed 114 Best I had was 198 yds. I’m happy with those numbers for a 55 yr old. 😊 My Mizuno 223s I couldn’t get numbers like that. Can’t wait to get them in a couple wks.

an OUTSTANDING review. I'm an 11 index looking for irons in the next year and you've opened my eyes to a couple of brands, particularly Mizuno and Srixon. Will definitely be including them in my fitting. Great content!

Im headed to order a set of Mizuno JPX 923 Hot Metal tomorrow. I went and hit 4 other with them and loved the feel and distance of the Mizuno. Im 58 and been playing ping 425s then 430s and just not getting what i want out of those. Im a 8 handicap and my iron are the week part of my game so i'm hoping the Mizuno's help. This was just the video i was looking for , thanks and great job as well . new sub

Buyer’s affirmation achieved! 😅 I got fitted for the ZX4ii this summer. Now I just with I had as a consistent swing as yours and hit my 7 200! 😊

New subscriber. I just watched your 2022 and then this one. For 2 months now I've been researching and testing and I can't decide between the Stealth, Hot Metals or Srixon. But I was looking at the ZX5 MK2 rather than the ZX4. I'm going to sift through to see if you did a video on those. Hope Calgary is doing well, lived there for nearly a decade and I do miss it :)

I got fitted a little over a week ago and tried most of these clubs and the Mizuno were the clear choice for me they went 5 yards further then the rest and was more consistent all around. Just shows how clubs are different for everyone.

I am a JPX921 user and absolutely Love them!

I was about to rage seeing the p790 in this grouping but I forgive you after the xplenation. I love my 2021 790’s excellent clubs

Your smashing that mizuno

I want to agree with some of the other commenters sediment. I liked your review and content. If you are not doing this full time you should be. I immediately subscribed so I don’t miss anything new and planned to go back and watch your previous content.

Really enjoyed your video.. I've got a ZX4 mkii 4 iron in my combo set and I can attest to its forgiveness. I get away with A LOT of mishits lol

How you aren't the biggest name in this category of video yet, I don't know... your approach, commentary and production is great. Thank you for your hard work.

Would like to see how the Wilson DynaPwr compares to the others.

Great content. Bringing in a mid-hi HCer is very smart too.

These kinda videos are interesting for me, I'm getting back into golf after 12+yrs away and grabbed the Strata Plus set and then added a few clubs (White Hot Putter, 64deg PM Grind, 3h+4h Callaway XR OS). Looking forward to seeing how things go once i get back out on course this winter :)

I appreciate your videos! I watched multiple rankings of irons before I went and got fitted a couple months ago. I went in thinking I was going to buy the Srixon or Mizuno irons you’ve mentioned, or possibly the Stealth irons. I hit everyone iron above (plus the Callaway Rogue from last year) and the Ping G430 were for me head and shoulders better than the rest on my dispersion and distance. It was interesting. They felt like they were made for me if that makes sense. I am a high handicapper, and I wonder if that’s why they did better for me versus someone like yourself that’s a much better golfer? Thank you for your content! It’s helped me a lot. Can’t wait to get fitted for driver. I enjoyed your driver series as well!

The best reviews on golf and it's not close.

Would love to see peak height as you go through these tests. Especially for the game improvement category, the audience is likely concerned about getting the ball up in the air. Great video

I am between the taylormade p790s and a Srixon zx4/zx5 combo set. Nice review

Excellent review very professional, look forward to future tests. Greetings from 🇬🇧

Hi. Is it possible to have a mid handicapper review the best clubs? I’m a 12 so in my opinion an high handicapper or a pro testing isn’t as helpful as a mid handicapper. Hope you can do it. Love your content.

Any chance you'd put Takomo in the mix? At $699 US, I'm curious how they would stack up against the Mizuno.

Great job man! Lots of detail and love all the data. Keep it up!

WOW! I watch a lot of videos trying to find the most forgiving and longest iron out there. This is THE BEST video I've seen. Great job!! The Cobra LTDX and Aerojet are at a great price point now but I read a lot about the fact that they don't go high enough to give me the stopping power. Did you find this as an issue with the Aerojet? I would love to see you test the Cobra LTDX, Aero and Dark speed and also the PXG Gen 6 XP. Thanks

Amazing review! Thank you for the time you put in with a great detailed review! New follower here and regret not finding you earlier. Just getting back into golf after a decade off from a bad shoulder surgery. I currently still use my old callaway x-22 to which my all time low is 85. Want to invest in a set that will last me for awhile as a 43 year old. Slow swing due to injuries. I really like the idea of graphite shafts as well any suggestions? Aerojet was on sale at golf galaxy for $800 but I’m not sold on them. Need a club fitting and testing a few different but I love the look of the Titleist 350s. I never ever wouldve thought that mizuno would be a heavy hitter in terms of very good but i am interested in trying them also! Thanks for everything! Jmoe from Dayton, OH

Brandon, you sure look like someone who managed our hockey pro shop and sound like him. Good video. Very comprehensive and fair

Excellent video! great editing and sound. Glad i found your channel and immediately subscribed.

Jesus dude You have some crazy smash factor numbers on your 7 irons lol, most ppl get that on their drivers 😂. Can't wait for your player iron review, better have the p7mb in it 😁. Fun review keep up the good work 👍.

eagering for one on players iron, cheers!🔥🔥

Cobras all the way!

You should compare the mizuno, srixon and the takomo 101 just curious to see if a way cheaper option can be good

Im heading towards the Mizunos. Look the best imo plus they perform pretty well. Surprised by the P790s

For me, the xxio 12 has been the top choice. I had ping g430 hl but the xxio out performed and felt so much better still

Incredible video!

Have been using Mizuno Pro 223s for a yr now. I’ve love them if it in the middle. After one yr I’m questioning myself if these were the right ones for me. My thoughts are they are too much for me. I’m far a “pro”, feel like I need something little more forgiving. I’m 55 and can get 170 carry out of the 7 iron when hit perfect. I’m using Modus 95 steel shaft. Would like more distance. Before these I had Ping G425s. Going to test some different irons this winter. I live in Saskatchewan. Great video

10 yards or more of roll out is pretty much off the green. I would stick to Mizuno because it was the only one with 5 yards of roll out. What good is distance when you have to constantly chip to save par.

Great vid Brandon. 👏👏👏

I play with a guy who hits his irons well, but he got fitted for the P790s, and now he pulls everything left .

You should compare a set of Takomo 101s to these irons, just bought a set the other day for €489. Bargain compared to the cost of these clubs

I think the left-to-right dispersion is a better metric rather than the distance

The hot metal pro is where it’s at game improvement but with way better looks, but it you have the P790 you would have the Mizuno Pro 225 no ? I don’t think the P790 should be in here IMO

Why the P790? I would have expected to see the Stealth. As a beginner, would you then recommend the P790?

Great video as usual bud. Hope all is well 👍💪

I got fitted for the T350 last october, but to be honest, I'm so disappointed because in-between the hole irons had to be replaced because the plastic plate on the back felt out. Now I've got the new set for about 5 weeks, and it's just the same again. It's so annoying that something like this happens TWO TIMES with clubs that are so expensive. 😡

Watching the video through I noticed the averages you read off for the JPX 923 HM were not the correct averages, but rather just the shot data for shot #32 you had selected. Havent finished the video yet so you might correct this later, but you picked the shortest shot of the bunch so it does affect things a bit haha

What about the Wilson Dynapower? Are they improvement clubs and would you put them against these clubs or are they in a different category? thank you I'm new to your channel so maybe you've\ got a video about them

i prefe r VEGA yururi PXG

Good looking swing, hopefully you have instruction. Subbed.

Wouldn't the TM entry be the Stealth 2? P790 is more comparable to the T200, Apex, etc.

Finished earlier. Do results apply to graphite shafts? I am 76 mid to hi handicaper

Just switch the JPX Hot Metal to the JPX Hot Metal Pro and there is the really winner

Curious Why are you mentioning the elevation? You are using the trackman. Is that a parameter?

Travis🔥

You only had one outlier that went too far compare to the other shots with the Paradym but immediately disregarded that club. Seem to have some bias whether conscientiously or not there. That long shot was also your only pull left and we all know pulled shots go much further. Thanks but might not be useable data for mid handicap players. Not trying to be difficult and enjoy the content.

TaylorMade P790 is your pick for that brands game improvement? What about Stealth 2 or the most game improvement iron of the year, the Stealth HD?????

Have you hit the new Kirkland's yet? $499. I have a set and they seem awesome. I play to a 6 hdcp but much shorter with all my irons (67 yrs old). They come with elevate 115 shafts so a little heavy. What will go higher, the regular shafts or stiff for the average player?

How would you have ranked the Stealth irons compared to the irons in this group?

Didn’t test the Wilson dynapwr

Are those prices per club? New to golf

where is the wilson dynapower

Shouldn't it have been the Taylor Made Stealth over the P790?

So why the p790 for game improvement iron vs the stealth p790 is clearly a players distance iron

I think price should be only of a marginal impact. When considering how long most people keep irons and how many times they will be hit it becomes a very small difference over the life of the club.

I don't blame no 7 iron can go to 295 like you saying. My 130 to 140.

I wonder where the Adams idea Irons fall on this list.

Are you hitting standard loft and lie?

Really wish you had added pxg to this run of the best to worst.

You can find them randomly in Costco store and sold out on line. With this Taylormade lawsuit I'm not sure when they will be restocked.

Could you add the Miura cb302

Try the Wilson D9 Forged?????

Good video but not a TRUE test without PXG!!!

I commend you on your patience with comments. I read them to see feedback but the level of st#&!$@ is a bit overwhelming. I started counting the people who obviously didn't watch the video and complained about not having the Stealth irons in as opposed to the p790. ....OMG. And while I was counting those I see someone who wants Miura's in the game improvement category. I just stopped after that.

Any shots that are left or right is the players fault not the clubs. You have to keep that in mind. Humans aren’t robots

Jesus 200 yard 7 iron? That's insane. you basically never need a driver.

Takomo 101

I don't see or appreciate the value in a 7 iron having a 15-20 yard roll out! A 7 iron will (almost) always be an approach shot. Many of the greens I play could never be held with such a club, esp if the pin is tight or the greens are running fast.

P790 is a players distance iron I call bullshit on game improvement categories

218 yards from 7i?? jesus

Brandon, why in the world would I want a 7-iron to have less spin and more roll out?! The 7-iron is used for approach & 3-par shots needing stops nearest the point of green impact. For a guy who plays great golf, you make zero sense with your discussion of a shorter iron. .... Gordon, 5-handicap

190 carry my ass….lol. This dude is a LAD. (Watch movie “Ransom” to see what LAD stands for).

You need to study up on statistical theory before making a video like this. Trying to make decisions based on such incredibly small sample sizes, generated by a single user, is indefensible. You can certainly talk about the feel, the way the shots came off the club, and the results for YOU, but ranking the clubs based on this very small data set could be incredibly misleading. You owe it to your viewers to be honest with them.

Best game improvement clubs are left out😂 wilson dynamite

Any reason you didn't include the jpx 923 hl instead. This club is considered game improvement and fits high handicapper and senior golfers.

Man, imagine being able to hit a 7 iron 215 yards. I'd love to just be at 165-170. lol
