Late last year, the new Mizuno Pro irons were officially announced and hit the market in some areas, while others they dropped just a couple of months ago. If you missed our preview on the Mizuno Pro 241, 243 or 245 irons, you can find it here.
Since that time, golfers have been able to get their hands on them and the reviews on the THP Forum have been stellar. That always leads to questions, and what better way to break them down than to visit Mizuno HQ and chat about the line.
We wanted to get a little more info on how they compare and what makes the Mizuno Pro 241, 243 and 245 irons unique. Chris Voshall from Mizuno Golf walks us through the entire lineup and helps you identify which set would be best in your bag.
Which Mizuno Pro set do you think would fit you best? Could you see yourself putting together a combo set of Mizuno Pro 245 mixed in with some 243 and 241? Do you think you would combo at all or go straight through on any of the sets?
For more information on any of the irons discussed in the video, check out their website at www.mizunogolf.com.
Keep all the Vosh videos coming :love:
Very helpful video. I’d love to give the 245’s some swings one of these days.
Really no one better at these review videos than Vosh.
Great video. I would definitely be a 245 guy. Need the pop.

I should have my set with the Recoil Darts back before our next round in April.
Pretty sure I’d be 245 all the way down. Could use the pop and it sounds like they kept them very workable around the greens in the wedges.
I’d probably go 245 all the way. Always can use a bit of forgiveness.

Oh wow. Thats an incredible sounding combo.
These sound great. I may swing by the PGA store and hit the 245 just to see.
I’d be 245’s. They’re the only irons that I would think about replacing my current set with.
I could listen to Chris talk all day.
That being said – I would like to try the 243’s BUT since no Lefty Love in those (which seems odd) – I would go 245
Sign me up for the monster of the lineup as Vosh calls them. You can tell he almost gets giddy when he gets to the 245.
[USER=3]@JB[/USER] timely, I was checking out the 243s on Saturday.

Ok, I chortled. At least you didn’t mention finding the second island to the right on #17.
Great content here. Love hearing Chris talk about clubs. 243 all the way for me. I love them especially now that I’m starting to clean up my ballstriking.
Outside of not giving Vosh credit for the ’23 Victory Cup win, love listening to Vosh talk about these. I’d be in straight 245’s as an upgrade to the 225’s already in my bag.
These irons are fantastic looking. I could play some 245s straight or 243s straight and probably be pretty happy.
Straight 245s for me. Vosh is very passionate about his family, his job, and THP. I was fortunate to share a cart for 18 holes with Chris at the 2022 Victory Cup and it is one of the top 3 highlights of my golf career.
That was a fantastic explanation and breakdown. If I was going to play a set of these I would be leaning 245

This exactly. I also had 18 with Chris, before his first child was born. We discussed so much golf, family, vacations. All of it. He’s a super nice and kind person, his passion for the game and the equipment his company makes, it was an honor to spend a round with him.
I’d likely go all 245 as I did all 225. So confidence inspiring.
Thanks to THP, Mizuno, Chris, and [USER=61009]@Deebo76[/USER] who nailed it is his reply.
Vosh is the absolute best.
He also has really made me want to hit the 245’s ?
Was pretty close to ending up in a straight set of 243’s earlier this year. The whole line is killer, and the 243’s/241’s have incredible feel.
I’m very very close to ordering the 241s….but possibly with a 243 4-iron.
He really doesn’t mince words on the size. “These are really small” lol
Love listening to Vosh getting into the nitty gritty of the clubs.
Very cool video and insight into the irons. I have a set of 243’s on the way, 5-GW with a side of 245 at the 4 spot. I can’t wait to get my hands on them! [emoji16]

Get ready, the Victory Cup Experience details are coming soon and you can spend several days like this with Chris and team
I could listen to Chris talk golf clubs all day long. Love the combination of passion and knowledge. He is comfortable in front of a camera too.

Oh man I must have missed that going back to rewatch.
beautiful looking irons. *if* i were to game them….it would be a full set of 245.
I have 245s 4-PW with PX IO 6.0 shafts.
I’m thinking of getting 7-PW 243 in summer when I’m swinging better.
The last set of Mizuno’s I’ve had was JPX 825 pro’s

He’s great both on the content and at our Experiences. Same guy all of the time
Listened to this one again. For me the 245 is the king but that 243 does look and sound good. Could be too much for my game, but I wouldn’t turn a cold shoulder to it.
Just watched the video again. Maybe a 243/245 combo set would be a solid play, split at like the 8 iron.
Always love watching videos with Vosh. Wealth of knowledge and so much enthusiasm for the products. Think I’d most likely fit into the 245s (currently in the 225s), but I did hit the 243s a couple weeks back and they looked and felt incredible. Maybe a combo.

Nice update from Vosh. I’d probably go 245. Lots of help and with those looks? Yes please.

I know right? I’m scared of 241 but with the changes to the 243 they could be interesting
Love listing to Vosh talk through the lineup. And the monster of the 3, those 245s, have been nuts here. I’ve never seen so many good players go full 8 piece on a set like that before. They’re killing it!
I think I want 245’s.
MP241 ordered with Ctaper Lite….threw in a MP24 52 degree also

I took a couple pictures of the 241 4 iron at the range yesterday for your crazy *ss. ?
And told the wife about this dude on the forum that thinks he needs a full set of these.
Wife: That thing looks scary.
Me: *Hits it*
Her: Your face says that’s the best ball you’ve ever hit. Lol
Me: Yeah. Kinda was. Lol
Her: Are you going to play it?
Me: I’m never touching that club again in my life. ?

That is super intimidating
[I]For the 4 iron. [/I]
It’s intimidating for the 4 iron to be held by me.
This is what i do with irons. Dinner table dispersion. Somewhere a lefty 4 iron head is like “thank god”
