JPX 925 Hot Metal

Independent robot testing: 2nd best game-improvement iron with reliable accuracy and forgiveness. New internal tungsten weights in 4-7 irons mitigate ball-speed loss on off-centre strikes and lower CG. One-piece perimeter wrap design maximizes rebound and expands the high-COR area, boosting forgiveness and energy transfer. Variable Sole Thickness increases the overall flex of the face to further expand the COR area for more ball speed and forgiveness. Mishits lose minimal distance per reviewer testing.

Independent robot testing: 3rd overall in distance in the 2025 GI category — major improvement over the predecessor which ranked towards the bottom for distance. New CORTECH Design with Contour Ellipse Face is 30% thinner than previous generations. 7-iron loft 28° (vs predecessor's 28.5°) — slightly stronger for distance. Launch monitor testing: 7-iron delivered strong distance numbers with some outliers carrying 12-15 yards further than competitors at the same clubhead speed.

Same game-improvement profile as the predecessor — strong 28° 7-iron loft + Stability Frame toe-bias weighting cap absolute curvature ceiling. Tungsten weighting in 4-7 irons creates higher launch and steeper landing angles but does not add shape-shifting capability. Reviewer testing: controllable and consistent results rather than workable. No meaningful workability change vs predecessor.

Editorial coverage: industry-best sound and feel. Reviewer testing: true premium sound and feel — so much value for the performance. New tungsten weighting in 4-7 irons + multi-material construction tunes the impact character. Same V-Chassis architecture with Harmonic Impact Technology as predecessor but refined through the tungsten + CORTECH redesign. Step up vs the already-strong baseline.

Editorial coverage: industry-best sound. Same V-Chassis architecture with Acoustic Sound Ribs as predecessor. New tungsten weighting + multi-material construction refine the acoustic character — quieter, more solid than typical GI peers. Reviewer testing: true premium sound. Refined acoustic that sets the benchmark for the category.

Editorial coverage: as far as head designs for game improvement irons go, this is one of the best seen in 2024. Refined GI silhouette vs the predecessor — same general profile but tightened proportions enabled by the tungsten weighting moving mass internally. Industry awards validate the premium aesthetic. Still firmly in the GI category — looks thicker than a players or PD iron.
