I see Mizuno offering a new JPX 800 AD forged irons. Anyone tell me more information on them. Endo forged?

The new JPX Forged 800AD is made in China. I miss the original made by Endo.

  • What's in the Bag?:
    Clubs I can actually play, not think I can play. Put the ego aside to focus on improving my score.
The original would be the JPX 500 Forged and those were certainly made at Endo with S20C.

The new model is all S25C.

If you have questions about J-Spec equipment or need recommendations or fittings, please send me an email at gocchin@tourspecgolf.com (email is best)

Thanks for the information. Interesting, when you look on the G.One.Golf site, it says "Made in China,Made in Japan" How do you interpret that? Also, for those that dont know (including me), what is the difference between S20C and S25C?

1025 & S25C is the same stuff just different names.

Now if it's made in Japan I call it J.I.S (Japan Industry Standard) S25C which means it has a better mineral make up. Nothing that we could really feel but it's nice having the piece of mind that its produced to a higher standard.

Yea I saw that as well. To me that means made in China and assembled in Japan.
