Which version is which
- Hot Metal: the game-improvement model, built for distance and forgiveness.
- Hot Metal Pro: a smaller head with a thinner topline and less offset, for better players who still want distance.
- Hot Metal HL: high launch, with weaker lofts and a wider sole, for slower swing speeds.
- Forged: a compact forged head for low-to-mid handicaps.
- Tour: the most compact JPX, closest to Mizuno's players irons. The JPX923 Tour has no badge on the back. The 2025 launch included Forged and Forged Black, but no Tour.
