kevy_boy Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 What's the story on these? What grade of steel is used? How's the playability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

master Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 I've tried a 6 iron demo on course with NS Pro 850 R flex, quite forgiving, easy to hit, accurate, ball flight tends to go a little bit high, may be due to the shaft. Feel is crispy soft, not mushy, I would say the feel is in between Mizuno & Tourstage where Mizuno is the softest. I don't know where the iron is forged but the build quality is superb & is beautifully made. I've demoed this set of irons together with Srixon ZR600, Fourteen 770 forged , new VIQ forged & the Mizuno JPX E500. They are all excellent irons & not difficult to hit, the choice is more of a personal preference on a particular feel of the irons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip Alexander Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 I haven't hit these, but they look very good in my opinion. Overall I enjoy the design. Just my 2 cents worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevy_boy Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 How do the Mizuno JPX E500 and the OnOff forged compare? Which has the better feel?

master Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 In terms of feel, I prefer OnOff, but interms of forgiveness, JPX E500 edges out OnOff, so you really need to demo them all & find one what fits your game, also the thickness of the club, the leading edge, offsets etc all affect your perception of the club.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted April 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 After reading this I had to hit both side by side. OnOff has the NS950 stiff flex, JPX has NS1150 stiff flex. The JPX is softer no doubt. Onoff has less offset and master is correct about the JPX being a more forgiving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Chris is right that JPX is softer than OnOff, but I just prefer a crisper feel than JPX. JPX club head is slightly bigger than OnOff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
