Mizuno unveils new JPX One drivers, fairway woods and hybrids
Mizuno has today unveiled its new JPX One drivers, fairway woods, and hybrids for 2026.
What’s New?
The JPX One Driver features the all-new NanoAlloy face technology. Developed in collaboration with materials specialists Toray, NanoAlloy utilises microscopic polymer dispersion to produce a face that dynamically alters its elasticity under impact.
The result is a material that stores and releases more energy at impact than traditional titanium or composite constructions, in design to deliver unprecedented ball speeds across a wider area of the face.

Mizuno JPX One Driver
This breakthrough pairs with a newly engineered CorTech Face, up to 0.35mm thinner than previous generations, expanding the CorArea (high-speed rebound zone) by over 15 percent.
Two models, JPX One and JPX One Select, offer distinct performance profiles. JPX One features a slightly larger footprint in a bid to provide higher stability and straighter ball flight, while JPX One Select is designed to deliver a more compact, tour-preferred shape with a neutral-to-fade bias.

Mizuno JPX One Driver
JPX One Driver

Key Features:
- Larger footprint than the JPX One Select driver for more forgiveness
- New CorTech Face designed to match the Nanoalloy Face creates faster ball speed and larger CorArea
- Larger CG angle with less face progression for a straighter trajectory
- Adjustable back weight and Quick Switch for fine-tuning at fitting

JPX One Select Driver

Key Features:
- New CorTech Face designed to match the NanoAlloy Face creates faster ball speed and larger CorArea
- A player’s preferred compact address shape with a more workable 460cc head size
- Mass properties and head specification promotes a straight to slight fade trajectory

Specs:

JPX One Fairways

The JPX One Fairways introduce a re-engineered CorTech Chamber that strategically varies the internal gap between the sole and chamber wall. This geometry increases face flexion towards the toe and heel, amplifying energy transfer across the hitting surface without compromising central performance.

Each head features a wrap-around composite crown that saves critical grams high in the structure, lowering the centre of gravity in design for higher launch and reduced spin.

A multi-thickness MAS1C steel face aims to ensure peak COR performance. In addition, an all-new Speed Bevel sole refines turf interaction, in a bid to produce cleaner strikes and more consistent ball speed from a variety of lies.

Specs:

3 & 5 available in LH
JPX One Hybrids

The JPX One Hybrids take the same design philosophy and apply it to a more compact, iron-replacement shape. Their Waffle Crown structure enhances face stability, enabling Mizuno’s engineers to reposition discretionary mass lower and deeper in design for optimal launch and spin control.

A uniform-thickness 1.8mm MAS1C face combines with the improved CorTech Chamber and Speed Bevel sole design in a bid to produce maximum speed through impact, even on strikes low on the face or from challenging turf conditions.

Specs:

4 & 5 available in LH

Price & Availability
- JPX One and JPX One Select Driver: $599
- JPX One Fairways: $349
- JPX One Hybrids: $279

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.
