Mizuno announces 2025 JPX 925 irons
Mizuno today announced its latest tech-infused JPX design: the JPX 925 irons. According to the company the irons “combine cutting-edge technology with the iconic feel Mizuno is known for.”
Engineers sought to utilize a multi-thickness face profile in a forged design to bridge the gap between the Hot Metal series and Mizuno’s Pro line.
Let’s dig into the key technology.

Mizuno JPX 925 irons
CORTECH Design: Mizuno engineers leverage Contour Ellipse Face technology with its multi-thickness profile to deliver optimum ball speed and greater forgiveness across the entire club face.

Grain Flow Forging: Of course, Mizuno leverages its proprietary Grain Flow Forged HD process in its Hiroshima, Japan, family to deliver signature “Mizuno feel.” Mizuno uses Chromoly 4120 to craft its 4-7 irons for greater speed and 1025 E Pure Select Mild Carbon Steel for the 8-GW to deliver greater feel and control.

Triple Cut Sole: Mizuno engineers incorporated a Triple Cut Sole for optimum tuft interaction. According to the company, “The leading edge is gently beveled to ensure a clean entry into the turf, while the hard-cut trailing edge facilitates a smooth exit for uninterrupted ball contact.”

But wait…there’s more…JPX 925 Black! In addition to the traditional satin chrome finish, Mizuno is offering JPX 925 irons in a black finish.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.
