Mizuno JPX850 Fairway Wood & JPX850 Hybrid
Take a closer look at the new JPX850 Boron Forged Iron, JPX850 Driver and JPX850 metalwoods
JPX850 Fairway wood
The JPX850 marks a new generation of better player fairways woods – maintaining a generous, hittable size with low penetrating spin rates and high workability.
The primary characteristic of the JPX850’s Shock Wave sole is to enable the entire club head to contract and expand on impact – delivering an additional energy source to the clubface. The additional mass also lowers the head’s centre of gravity, maintaining high ball speeds directly off the turf.
There is a 4-degree range of loft adjustment possible within each fairway head (3/5/7) through the use of Mizuno’s Quick Switch shaft adjustability.
Key features:
- Shock Wave Technology: Enables entire head to flex for increased ball speeds
- Waffle crown: Saves weight for a low spinning COG effect
- Quick Switch adjustability: Allows 4 degree of loft movement per head
- Low CG: Maintain high ball speeds from low on the face
Available February 2015 at RRP £215 (2014 Fujikura Orochi)

The primary characteristic of the JPX850’s Shock Wave sole is to enable the entire club head to contract and expand on impact – delivering an additional energy source to the clubface.
