The JPX 923 features a more forgiving, game-improvement head shape compared to the JPX 921. It also has a slightly lower center of gravity for easier launch. The 921 is more compact with a player’s profile.
I’m still undecided between the two. Any thoughts on the forgiveness and launch characteristics of each model? I’m an average golfer looking for a club that’s easy to hit and launch high.
The 923 is definitely the more forgiving option with its wider sole and deeper CG. But the 921 could work well if you have a faster swing speed and prefer a more workable iron. Try them both if you can!

The 923 is the better choice for higher, more forgiving shots. The 921 is more of a player’s iron with a lower, more penetrating ball flight.
Mizzy’s marketing seems to have gotten a bit out of hand with all these model numbers. Can’t we just call them the ‘game-improver’ and ‘player’s’ irons and be done with it?
Lol, I guess Mizuno wanted to keep the ‘JPX’ branding going. But you’re right, the 923 is the more forgiving option for average golfers, while the 921 is aimed at better players. Try them both and see what fits your game best!
I’ve hit both the 921 and 923 and can confirm the 923 is the more user-friendly of the two. Solid feel, good distance, and very forgiving on off-center hits. The 921 is a beauty but requires a more consistent strike.
I agree, the 923 seems like the smarter choice for most average golfers. The 921 is probably best left to the low-handicappers.
