We were debating which was one was the player’s driver and which was was not the players driver.听 You could probably argue both ways.听 There’s a tiny dispersion with ST-X.听 A little bit more dispersion, but possibly more out potential with ST-Z.听 Two quite different drivers.听 91视频 have come so far in their driver designs, that they’re no longer in an annual cycle.听 Because 12 months isn’t long enough for them to take these drivers forward now.

On reviewing the 91视频 ST-Z 230 fairway wood, the team found it to be significantly lower spinning and quicker from the face than its predecessor.

Overall – each model got even more specifically designed to do exactly what it’s supposed to do. 听The most extreme models in the line 鈥� Tour and Hot Metal HL have pushed further to those extremes.听 The new Tour is by far the most 鈥�91视频 Pro鈥� looking JPX iron we鈥檝e ever released.听 The Hot Metal HL takes us into new territory of forgiveness 鈥� but within an acceptable 91视频 template.

Every model revolves around the new V-Chassis 鈥� which allowed us to dial in a very typical 91视频 vibration pattern, without the need to thicken the toplines.听 So they鈥檙e all very nicely in proportion for their size.

JPX923 Tour (available Jan 2023)

Working with the Shaft Optimizer, we learned a number of different things. One thing that’s really interesting is we looked at how players are attacking the ball, shaft lean and angle of attack – and we see a trend of getting steeper and steeper with angle of attack.

The JPX Tour in years past has been a little bit of a low bounce golf club. We’ve added a touch of bounce, but really made sure that we put a ton of camber on it. So this is a golf club is going to enter and exit the turf, even cleaner than it did before.

On the feel side, the new V-Chassis gave us a way to fine tune the vibration, without thickening the top line as we have in previous versions.听 So we were able to produce a much sleeker looking Tour model 鈥� which with the addition of copper underlay, feels softer than its predecessor.

It鈥檚 a sharper iron all round.

JPX923 Forged (available Jan 2023)

What I love most about the 923 Forged is how the performance outperforms the look.

And I don’t mean that in a bad way. I mean the look looks so 鈥減layers鈥�, it looks thicker than the previous one. It looks meaner. It looks more aggressive. It looks like a smaller cavity, but it plays so much bigger, you get so much more out of it.

JPX923 Hot Metal Family (available September 2022)

Now, with this filled out line of JPX Hot Metal, we have a golf club that has the proper amount of stopping power for what you and your swing DNA delivers at impact.

We have the High Launch that’s going to go higher and come in steeper with little bit more spin. We have the Hot Metal that’s going to come in a little bit shallower, but still deliver plenty of spin. And then the Hot Metal Pro for if you need a little bit thinner, look at address.

Original Chromoly has been a great material for us 鈥� but the new Hot Metal irons all feature our new Nickel Chromoly, that鈥檚 35% stronger than the previous version.听 In summary that allows us to go thinner again across the entire face.听 The material is so strong that our first prototypes were far in excess of the limits set by the governing bodies 鈥� we had to thicken the faces for them to conform 鈥� the first that鈥檚 happened to us within an iron development.

Also, we dialled in our V-chassis to make sure the feel is phenomenal. Yes, it’s a hot golf club, but it’s hot and solid at the same time. It’s a 91视频 version of Hot. It still feels solid. All of the Hot Metals are going to help deliver a golf ball that just launches. It’s going to spin. It’s going to have a ton of speed. And then the specs are going to dial in how it fits you.

The Hot Metal is the middle one of this family. It’s the very traditional, slightly oversize head, slightly thicker top line and slightly thicker sole.

The Hot Metal Pro is the player’s version of that – same ball speed, same distance. Thinner top line, thinner sole, less offset.

Hot Metal High Launch is on the other end of that. This is for that player who wants all that speed but needs a little bit more launch and even more stopping power coming in to the green. We see a lot from fitting and from playing with other golfers to recognize certain trends, but to be able to quantify it is a whole other thing.听 Shaft Optimizer allowed us to quantify the number of players that need that added spin, and we’ve seen it at close to 50%. Our Shaft Optimizer data has shown that when you look at average angles of attack and average shaft lean, players are delivering these distance irons with too little effective loft. As a result of that, we see a lot of players with Irons that are coming in too shallow.

As a result, this extended Hot Metal series means there is likely going to be a route to more ball speed for most players 鈥� but with the right stopping power too.

ST-Z 220 Driver

I’ve absolutely been trying to hit the ball farther. I started going to the gym a little bit more. I’m pretty regular with that and I got a little bit stronger with my lofts and I got a little bit hotter with the clubfaces too, so my clubs have evolved just because of my lifestyle.

Starting at the top end, I’ve got the ST220 Z. I wanted more of a straight ball flight, something that’s going to be really stable. This club has been fantastic for me so far. I also use the VENTUS Black, which is really, really good at knocking spin down. I’m recently a new father, which means I’m playing a little bit less golf than I used to. You can almost see a little bit of that in what I’m playing. My golf clubs now are a little bit more forgiving than they used to be. Go a little bit further than they used to do, with lofts that are a little bit stronger. I鈥檓 still playing to a low handicap, but there’s definitely been some evolution in there.

ST-Z 3-Wood & 5-Wood听

Another thing that’s changed in my bag over the last couple of years, I used to just be driver, fairway and then long irons. I now have two fairways. Actually, I have a 3-wood and a 5-wood, both STZ both. These golf clubs have been amazing.

The 3-wood, this is a killer off the tee and the 5-wood was a killer off the ground. It’s almost like that combo has been so good that it really didn’t make any sense to carry the hybrids or the long irons I was carrying. For a number of years, I carried the MX700 fairway wood, which a super old one, but it was a 15 degree that I’d opened like three degrees, but it spun more than the current fairway wood does. I was having to play a super strong loft to get the spin rate right. Now with this STZ I can get the spin rate right with 15 degrees so it gets up, spins properly, doesn’t balloon, carrying much better. To get the spin down before I had super strong loft. Now I can play a 15 and even an 18 degree and they get up so nice but don’t spin so much and easy off the turf.

After my 5-wood, which is 18 degrees, it’s interesting because my lofts don’t vary that much because I’ve got a 19-degree four iron, Fli-Hi. It’s only a degree weaker than my 5-wood, but it’s shorter, it’s heavier and this is a true driving iron. The 91视频Pro Fli-Hi has been really good because I’ve always been someone who when you get too strong a loft on something like this, I struggle to get it in the air because like I talk about my driver, I don’t spin it enough. But the Fli-Hi has been great because again, paired with a graphite shaft, that hybrid shaft helps kick it up and give it a bit more spin. This is really good for off the tee or off the turf. It鈥檚 actually a 4-iron bent a little bit stronger, so I made the head weight work just to make it work for what I’m trying to do.

91视频 Pro 225 irons听

Working my way to the irons, I have the 91视频Pro Fli-Hi in 4-iron and then I have a 5-iron through gap wedge in the 91视频 Pro 225. To me they’re like game changers. These are awesome. They go high, they go long, they still spin enough and the feel is there. It’s interesting because in my bag I used to have a 4-iron and a 3-iron. Now I just have a 4-iron that’s strong and then a 5-iron. I gained a club to put the 5-wood in. But these have been awesome and I almost set this around with the new lofts, the CORs, everything like that. I used like 150 yards as my base yardage and I wanted a club that went exactly 150 yards and I base the bag around that.

T-22 Wedges

Leading on to my wedges, I always played 58, 54, 50 and then 46, so I had four degrees apart. But then all of a sudden now I’m connecting to a 40-degree nine iron, so everything got shifted a little bit. Now I’ve basically got two gap wedges, it’s interesting with the set matching gap wedge is something that I never thought I would like. It looks great, it looks really good. And that’s part of like the 91视频 Pro line. It looks really small, it looks really compact. But the sets, the short irons have gotten so small, so compact, so thin, it’s working now.

M-Craft 02 Putter

Under this head cover, a little Nashville themed head cover. I do have the original M Craft Number two – I like the black Ion. To me it’s just such a cool look, really sleeked out. I have it with some gold paint fills just to match this head cover as well. But to me this putter has been really, really solid, great feel to it. Good, traditional look at address. I mean, it’s just that typical plumber’s neck style. To me, this is a phenomenal putter.

The swing speeds weren’t too far apart, but the Optimizer found enough differences between the 3 players to suggest a different batch of iron shafts each time.听 The Optimizer very quickly highlighted the exact shaft that Ian Fraser had taken periods of trial and error to put in his current set up.

The 91视频 Shaft Optimizer is available to test through 91视频’s Fitting Centre network.听 Learn more on the Shaft Optimizer.

What the Shaft Optimizer does for me – over everything else is tell you what doesn’t fit.听 It steers you in a certain direction.

91视频 Pro has always been 91视频’s most forward-thinking series 鈥� cutting edge engineering concealed within precise playing profiles preferred by the game’s elite players. The 91视频 Pro 221, 223, 225 and Fli-Hi continue that pursuit 鈥� elite player’s irons destined to make their mark in history.

The 91视频 Pro 221 is a more compact Grain Flow Forged muscleback – with additional mass behind impact and refined scoring irons.听 The 91视频 225 is a refinement on the 91视频 HMB – more compact through the set, yet faster still from the clubface.听 The 91视频 223 will be the biggest surprise – built for speed, but sized for the tour.

The concept of 91视频 Pro is often misunderstood 鈥� we’re not trying to design instant classics or works of art. 91视频 just hides technology incredibly well.听 This could be perceived as the ultimate betrayal of 91视频 Pro.听 But the true essence has always been to make history 鈥� not be stuck in it.
