I went for the Mizuno's because I felt they offered much better feel and I hit them more consistenty and found they were more accurate. both are great clubs though, but i felt it was easier to enhance my game with the mizuno's because they had a much better feel..
Just wondering though if you could take a look at my channel please, because I've got a video of my swing up there and just wondered if you could help me sort it out? my channel is 'billybobsmile' cheers
I'm an 8 hdcp. Tried both of these with a Taylormade rep doing the fitting. I was using a 6 iron and was hitting both between 190 and 200, but even the Taylor rep said I was much more consistent with the Mizuno. Both are great clubs, but for me the Mizzy works better. I don't think you could go wrong with either, but do yourself a favor and compare them under the eye of a trained fitter. The machine will give you the data and you'll be able to get a feel for both.
Mark, i really would like to see also a comparison review between the jpx 800 and the taylormade r11 irons with both graphite shafts regular flex. Thanks so far for your video's .
I tried the Burner 2.0 today (Std setup, graphite shaft - they didn't have the JPX). After a warm up with my present 9i and 6i and after a few swings I got the rythmn of the club right and well struck shots went about 15y longer than my present 6i and felt wonderful in the hands. Off shots went on line but shorter by 10 yards approx. I am definitely considering them along with the JPX800, Cobra S3, Wislon Ci9.
As I expect mishits to happen more with my game as I haven't played very much for years and it'll take some time before I have much consistency I decided that the 800s were right for me. The 1st time out was really quite bad as it had been 6 months since my last round but, the 2nd time (after practicing with some birdie balls - Mark, you should really review them as they are fantastic) was awesome.
Again, I apologize for the huge post but just wanted to give a duffer's opinion

The Taylormades fired hard but the trajectory seemed much lower. The mishits gave plenty of feedback but also seemed much harsher than the other two.
The Mizunos were perfect. They were hot off the face, had a higher trajectory, and the mishits gave sooo much feedback yet still managed to feel good. I hope this makes sense but I knew if I hit it off the toe, thin, left the face open, but it still felt smooth off the face and far less punishing than the 2.0s.
I hit both of these clubs (along with Cobra S3s). While Mark is giving feedback on good hits it was actually the mishits, because of my inconsistency, (along with trajectory) that led to my decision to go with the Mizuno JPX 800s...
The Cobras felt really good, on all hits, but I really couldn't decipher between the sweet spot and those slightly off (keep in mind I was only hitting into a net at the golf shop). They weren't quite as hot as the other two sets.
Sorry, I typed all this up then realized there was a character limit. I put some time into so I'm just gonna make multiple post. Just read them backwards or whatever you need to do.
I'm a recreational player. I've played less than 10 times a year the last 5-6 years. I typically shoot 90-95. I have more free time and have decided to play a lot more golf. I was desperately needing to update my irons (Taylormade Super Steel Burners).
thanks for the video's mark! I'm a 13-15 handicapper with a mid 80's swing speed with a 6iron, watched your old video on the jpx's, then went out and got fitted for a new set. after being tired of being 2 clubs shorter than my playing partners, all i have to say now is BOOM!!!!!!!!! the clubs give me at least an extra 10 yards and a very high launch when i need to get them up. more than anything they're very easy to hit and very forgiving, giving me a huge confidence boost in my iron play!!!!
Hi, great video. I ordered myself the JPX800's on Saturday. I got custom fitted and had a good experience at American Golf. Tried before buying and the Mizuno's just launch off the face like you said. Can't wait for them to arrive! Thanks for your help
I actually didn't like the Taylormades, believe it or not I lost distance lol compared to my nike victory red full cavity. Also I found them a bit chunky, I am not a good player but I do prefer a more classic and more skinny iron. Now I wanna try the JPX800 pros and the MP53's. Don't mean to put anyone off this is just my opinion
I don't get the mentality of these irons, they are low CG irons, yet you launch them lower than you launch a blade like an MP68 (based on your other reviews), therefore as you said they are playing 2 clubs stronger. Why are people so obsessive about iron distance, I hit a 6 iron about 155-160 carry I really don't need a 6 iron I hit 180 I have a 4 iron for that. It's worse at the low end how many gap wedges would I need...? 3 maybe.
Bought the TaylorMades. Why? They cost less and most of the country clubs in my area fit for the TaylorMades and hardly anyone, other than big box stores, carry the Mizunos. TaylorMades also has frequent demo days in my area but Mizuno does not.
