Both models look to increase the potential for distance and ball speed by reducing the thickness of the cover but increasing the thickness of the spin-reducing mantle layer between the core and cover.
Although the JPX925 Hot Metal line was launched last spring, this follow-up is the forged model that utilises a zippy face material for plenty of distance in a forged iron while delivering the syrupy feel Mizuno is known for in its irons.
To help us all get into the spirit of Masters Week, Mizuno has released 1,000 sets of special-edition “Azalea” irons – and we’re going to take a punt and say they’re not going to last long.
The Mizuno ST-Max 230 line-up of driver, fairway woods and hybrids makes the commitment to the largest footprints in company history in their respective categories.

The new Mizuno ST-G driver features the compact pear shape and deep face that better players naturally gravitate to, but it expands the range of appeal through enhanced adjustability, the increased flexibility in the face fuelled by a new beta rich, lighter and stronger titanium alloy and the low-spin effects of a weighted through-slot in the sole.
Two new models join Mizuno’s ST line of drivers, the ST-X 220 and the ST-Z 220, and both use expanded carbon-composite sections in the sole and crown to create more stable heads designed to produce more consistent launch conditions all over the face.
Mizuno’s ST-G 220 joins a lineage of weight-kit drivers that dates back more than a decade, features three tracks – heel-side, toe-side and rear-centre – that fit two seven-gram weights to tweak launch, spin, forgiveness and direction.
Mizuno’s M.Craft lineup of forged carbon steel putters, which debuted earlier this year, adds three new models for 2021, including two new mallets and a wide-body blade.
