The Mizuno JPX925 Hot Metal HL (High Launch) is a super-game-improvement iron engineered for golfers with slower swing speeds who need maximum launch height and carry distance. With higher lofts, a wider sole, and lighter overall construction than the standard Hot Metal, it delivers effortless performance for beginners and high-handicap golfers.
