Mizuno JPX825, great clubs but.....

[Jungle]

Over Christmas I treated myself to a set of Mizuno JPX825's which so far in their first couple of outings have been fantastic.

However I've noticed that quite a bit of the matt black finish within the cavity has started to chip away already.

Whilst I have never been over precious about scuffs and knicks I was surprised to see this after 36 holes.

Anyone else got these clubs and suffered the same problem?

I'll try and post a picture.

I would speak to wherever you bought them and ask as that doesnt sound right after 36 holes. I wouldn't be happy about that as Mizuno have a reputation for quality in their irons.

I've had them about a year and haven't had that problem at all. Mine still look like new in the cavities.

I hate clubs with any kind of embellishment. All I like to see is the plain metal with the manufacturer's name & logo stamped in. Anything else, in my view, makes the clubs look cheap & not "proper" golf clubs.

Where did you get them? Sound like the kind of thing that happens to counterfeit clubs

Thanks guys.

Got them from Direct Golf.

I'll get a photo and give them a call.

I would take a photo and ask the question directly to Mizuno via their Twitter & Facebook social media sites

Personally a quick trip to direct golf should sort it (and they are the one you have the contract with).

Resorting to social media should be a last resort, rather than the first one.

Totally agree, think they do it to get a colour scheme on them for marketing purposes but clubs that keep a classy look speak for themselves.

Go to DG first and then Mizuno customer service via phone or email. I wouldn't use social media until a last resort

Here is a few photo's. Not the clearest but you can see the flaky parts on the PW.

I was going to purchase some of these not long ago and read quite a lot of reviews. If you google it you'll see its a common occurance with the jpx825 irons for some reason.

My taylormade CBS has a very slight case of this after 3 years, must have played 200 rounds plus God knows how much practice

To be honest it's not something I'd expect from mizzy on their irons, maybe their raw finish wedges.....

That's pretty bad Hope you get it sorted asap as I think they will look really tatty in a few months! I am sure its just a one off though!

 

[patricks148]

ive the same on my JPX Pro, its from bag clatter. I wouldn't worry about it you don't hit the ball with that bit

 

[Scotty Cameron]

If mine turn out like those in the pics above I will be straight back to DG with them. That is not good at all, especially from Mizuno who have a reputation for quality irons.

Get fitted for a set of iron covers, that should do the trick :thup:
