Mizuno JPX-800HD (Lie)

Hi, just like to check if the JPX-800HD (i think it is of cast iron made) could be bent for lie adjustments?

should be cast iron, can only be adjusted very slightly. 1 or 2 degrees.

JPX series irons should be forged ... Thats why they are quite pricey for such GI irons ...

Not all JPX irons were forged. I don't think the HD was forged so I agree with nrafee. Typically, if they were forged irons from Mizuno, you'd see the words "Grain Flow Forged" engraved on the socket or neck of the club.

HI, You can check with Mizuno website. Every Iron set will display there what is the Max. angle can be band. I have used JPX800, it clear display there Max less than 2 degree.

Yeah, just checked that JPX 800 is a casted iron. However, the latest JPX irons are forged.

Actually, I think only the JPX 825 Pros are forged. The JPX 825s are still cast iron.

Thanks for all the comments - is the JPX 800 HD made in Japan?
