Just sold my Mizuno MP33s to a young player with the swing speed to make the long irons fly the way they were designed to do. At my age, 80, the height and distance I can get with the 2 iron is simply laughable, and the gaps between 2, 3 and 4 irons has probably shrunk to 3 yards instead of 10 to 15. I watched him hit my 2 iron that created a trajectory that looked like a giant 7 iron and went about 240. It was marvelous to see. Glad they found a good home. Now, it looks like the 225s are where I ought to look if I can afford a set of new irons.
About ten years ago I would have made a similar comment. Last year I picked up the JPX 921 Forged. Just keep grinding, sir, and you'll be able to play whatever you'd like.
I've decided its time to let go of my mp-60 set, and right now I'm between JPX 921 forged and 225. this video has me leaning towards the 225 if they are in fact a good bit more compact than the mp20 HMB
225 v P770 looks a great comparison………amazing looks with both for the type of club. Great review as always fellas. Ian nice seeing your pic at OT on Insta earlier this week👍. Matty instantly on the money 1st shot in - phenomenal💪👍
I have the 770's hits an plays nice .. I've hit all 3 of these mizzys' ..love'm all .. the 225 feels sooooo nice' .. I'm now waiting for my 225's to come in .. they don't have 6.5 I.O. so I'm hard stepping the 6.0. I.O twice which is fine because I like the weight .. should get them this month can't wait!
I've always played Mizuno blades but seeing a 7 iron go almost 200 yards and still sound soft and clean is very tempting. 210-yard par 3 and pulling 6 iron instead of 4 iron...that would give me more confidence over that shot. The only concern is the spin. I'm used to 6500 but it looks like the height is the same so IDK.
They arguably sounded better to my untrained ears too?? I started with Wilson staff cavity back irons, then got blades and now I've found a beautiful medium with their D7 forged irons. They look incredible, go far and feel fantastic. I say go for the newer, easier option 😊
I've played Mizuno blades my whole life and my stock 7 goes 155 yds. And those guys it them close to 200 yds. Then I've checked the lofts and felt better. That being said the 221 are gorgeous, and the personalisation options are endless. I was lucky to handle them and the non chrome/rust finish is something.
I thought that too about the spin but it’s vital to get the correct shaft. I had these custom fitted only a few weeks ago and I was getting between 6500 and 6800 spin with a project x 6.5 rifle shaft on the 7 iron. Absolutely awesome irons, I hit Taylormade P790, Titliest T100 and T200 and the Mizuno 223s came out on top in every department in my opinion plus the numbers on Trackman don’t lie.
Love Mizuno and love the new lines. I'm not judging, it's dog eat dog out there, but let's be honest, that 223 is the Ping i210 (design that is, materials and manufacturing notwithstanding). Again, no judgment, I wouldn't be shocked if Ping i210 is a copy of another brand. If Mizuno or anyone for that matter can go one better, have at it. Lord knows now I'm tempted to trade my i210's for 223's, or a blend of 223/225.
I switched to Titleist from Mizzy a long long time ago and now I'm likely to jump back, these look gorgeous and have help and that feel. I cannot wait to try out the 225 and will likely pull the trigger to go back. The T200 and T300 are just too ugly by comparison and the Taylor Made P790 are too offset.
Well lucky for me I was fitted into the jpx 921 forged 6 months ago and I love them won't be swapping out anytime soon another good review guys iam a little surprised that mizuno brought out another blade even the pro,s are moving away from blades into more forgiving clubs
New drivers are top notch and new T22 wedge as well. Just bought Mcraft V putter which outperformed all others while testing many many brands and models (and I had no intention to go for Mizuno). So I agree, you can’t go wrong with Mizuno in any category.
Great video. For something as special as this iron release by Mizuno, the awesomeness is just amplified by seeing TXG give these sticks the first impression run down. So looking forward to the deep dive videos. (Side note: I'm thinking that it won't take long for folks to start referring to these as the Mizuno 1s, 2s and 3s...just to avoid having to say two-two over and over again.)
So curious to know if playin the 225 would let you swing slow and buttery like a wedge swing and still have enough distance to match the other models and let you revamp your iron game...
I hit them at a fitting recently. I’ve been a TM guy all my life. I will prolly be changing to the 223’s. They are absolutely the best thing I’ve ever hit in my life. You will not be disappointed.
I've been playing Mizuno for around 10 years with the last set being MP18's (P-8 blades, 7-4 SC's) since I picked them up back in 2018... that said, I just demo'd the new T100S' and I almost, ALMOST, bought them on the spot. They are AMAZING. Look, feel, flight, forgiveness are all there. The ONLY reason I didn't buy them is because I must demo these first - I owe it to Mizuno. :). I know this, Mizuno have their work cut out for them but we shall see. :D Thank you TXG for all the help you give us out here on these club reviews and content!
i demo the 223's they are the king of these 221 pga guys if your lower handicap under 7 id say 223 are perfect 225 distance players iron or hackers iron as i say
I think for a better player looking for some forgiveness plus length in the longer irons, a combo of 223 and 225 would be unreal. 4 and 5 iron 225 and 6 thru PW 223? Might need to bend the 223 a degree strong to keep gapping, but love the potential here.
There's nothing spectacular about these clubs, for guys that are supposed to be data driven gurus they are obviously caught up in the marketing business side of promoting OEM clubs even though there's no data to suggest these heads are technologically going to be better than previous heads from Mizuno, like the MP32 line, the MP62/67, or hell even the 919 tour line. *yawn* Thought Mizuno was better than pulling a Taylormade in the iron industry but whatever.
Hi guys - Please do a p770 v the 225's - I just got my new P770. They took 5months to get to me as I am in Malawi, Africa. Always great work. Thanks and Happy Holidays
Bought the HMB 20 last year wondering if the 225s are that big of an improvement clubs to switch, what are your thoughts and love youVideos keep up the good work
Thanks for the intro to Mizuno Pro. The HMB 7 iron is 32 degree loft,and the 225 is 30 degree with less spin. Will you get more spin if you loft the 225 up,but keep the height window below 110'?
I was a little surprised in the loft difference of the 225 vs the HMBs, 2 degrees stronger 7-PW. I’d be interested to see each bent by a degree so they were equal and then hit them to see spin, height and carry comparisons.
What a brilliant lineup of irons, needs to be included in your fitting, if they are in the range of what you need. That 223 may be a great demo for a lot of people I know that really want to upgrade their cavities.
You guys are always way ahead of the game. Mizuno just put an email in my inbox today about these irons, and here you are already testing them. Well done.
For me, the best looking irons on the market. These will be hard to top definitely for aesthetics, and most likely performance. Great content as always gents.
Currently gaming 921 tours, love 7-PW but 4-6 are not very confidence inspiring. Would it make sense to replace 4-6 iron with the 225 and keep my 921 tours from 7-PW?
@@BuffaloBarber24 nothing, yet. Thinking about moving into the new line of 923 for this year, maybe doing 4-6 forged then 7-Pw tour. Or just doing all Forged.
Last week I ordered my combo set with 221 through 6 iron and 225 in the 5 and 4. I had a set of 919 pros and they were the best irons I'd ever hit, but I just don't swing fast enough to properly launch the 5 and 4 irons. Very demanding club in the long irons. Only for players with very fast swings. Fitted for the 221's and they were shockingly good. Decided to get 225 in the long irons to make sure I can launch them high and long and keep the scoring clubs in the blade. Supposed to get them in two weeks. Going to be the longest two weeks of my life!
Just ordered this same exact combo set with KBS $-taper shafts, and waiting the longest 2-3 weeks of my life. Planning to bend the 225s weak to minimize offset but I'm really looking forward to getting these in the bag.
Watched the vid expecting Chris Vosh-man to make a cameo appearance😉 Beautiful Irons and everything that you would expect & want from Mizuno👍 But I have to admit I'm not a fan of the "MizunoPro" graphics on the back, IMO they spoil the aesthetics somewhat.
I guess it’s a fitter and trial situation. I bought HMBs last year and love them. I played a lot last year with them and dropped my HCP by 2. They were the same loft as my X22 pros but longer by almost a club. The new 225 lofts are almost a half club ie HMB 6 iron 28 degrees & 7 iron 32 degrees while new 225 - 7 iron 30 degrees (6.5 HMB). If I was going to buy them I would weaken the lofts
Just sold my Mizuno MP33s to a young player with the swing speed to make the long irons fly the way they were designed to do. At my age, 80, the height and distance I can get with the 2 iron is simply laughable, and the gaps between 2, 3 and 4 irons has probably shrunk to 3 yards instead of 10 to 15.

So my daughter crawled into our bed at 3am, and I was frustrated about how early I had to wake up this morning. Until now. Thanks guys!
It's crazy how excited I've been to see two people, who are way above my skill level, look at irons that I'll never be able to afford and/or play!!!

The 225 is exactly where they needed to take the MP-20 HMB !! Mizuno engineering excellence!
Looks absolutely gorgeous. Want them so bad. But afraid they’ll go a tad too far. Might have to get them a degree or 2 weaker
I own and game both the MP20 blades and the JPX Forged. I never really know which set I like best. PROBLEM SOLVED!

By their description would you say the 225’s are similar to the 921’s? Or more for a low handicap player?
@@joepawling4735 225,s are hmb replacement so there more a game improvement iron
Will look at the 223 to knock out my 900 forged. 🤘🏻
Would love to see PXG Gen 4 irons on here as well!
The 223 kinda reminds of the mp-30
Is mizuno now the best complete brand in golf now? Great driver, amazing woods, dumb good irons, wedges are super good, and putters are top quality!
Not if you're left handed.
@@lukewanless9982 forgot lefties existed... lol

great looking hybrids hi flis
I would argue MAYBE Taylormade... However the last few Mizuno wedges have been the best on the market. Mizuno have smashed into the mainstream.
Placed my order for 225 last month, can't wait to get my hands on them

Thanks guys! Any info on the SEL? Do you know what the highest lofted club that will be available in the 225 for the SEL?
Time for Ian to carry two 7 irons?? Where's Crossfield when we need him?
There's no way I can hit them well enough, but damn Mizuno makes the best looking irons
So curious to know if playin the 225 would let you swing slow and buttery like a wedge swing and still have enough distance to match the other models and let you revamp your iron game...
Sadly would have preferred the cleaner look of the mp branding.
That 225 have got to be the 2022 Senior champion iron of the year. A pro 55+ Senior would love that thing.
I could feel how buttery that first strike was
My eyes still burning from being up so early to see this. Looking forward to testing these against my MP 20s
I'm SUPER curious about the Fly-Hi!!

Need to compare the 225 to the P 770 …..
221 (7-pw) 225 (5-6) that blemdy set would be nice.. probably have to bring loft in 225s back a degree to match but would work nicely

Anyone know the expected handicap range of the 225!? With the slimmer and compact head wondering if they lose forgiveness over the HMB
Any thoughts about -
221 - PW-7
223 - 6 & 5
225 - 4 & 3 (shorten to 5i length for better control)
Sound like the son of the Swedish chef on the muppets!
Mizuno blades are super nice! If I wasn't going to play my Titleist blades, I would play Mizuno or perhaps Miura!
Which Wilson ball are they talking about?
I love that they recalled the old school Mizuno Pro logo a.k.a "MP". Will be updating to these for next season.
Which of these would be most similair to the Mizuno MP53 Irons?
I know Leftie options are limited, does anyone know if they'll release the hi-fli driving iron in left?
Hope they’re better than the MP 33’s I bought years ago. Never been so disappointed.
Thanks for the intro to Mizuno Pro. The HMB 7 iron is 32 degree loft,and the 225 is 30 degree with less spin. Will you get more spin if you loft the 225 up,but keep the height window below 110'?
Don't forget the 225 has 30 degrees loft on the 7 iron, while the 221 has 34 degrees and 223 has 32 degrees.

Nope. The mp-20s are the best iron mizuno has made since the mp 32s & might be better than them.

I guess it’s a fitter and trial situation. I bought HMBs last year and love them. I played a lot last year with them and dropped my HCP by 2.
