The JPX 850 hybrid from Mizuno is perfect for you if you play with a mid to high handicap and are looking for a more forgiving alternative to long irons.

Here you get a distance-focused hybrid with the clever Shock Wave Sole, which makes the clubhead more flexible at impact and transfers plenty of speed to the ball. This means higher ball speed and longer shots even if you might not hit the center every time.

The center of gravity is low, making it easy to hit from both the fairway and rough. You get easy launch and a penetrating, stable ball flight just what you need if you struggle with the height of your shots.

The electric blue clubhead is slightly larger and closed in design, which helps with the feel and gives you confidence when standing over the ball. Sound and feel? A crisp metallic click sound that just feels power-like at impact.

The hybrid has a draw bias, so if you slice a bit from time to time, you will appreciate the extra help in keeping the ball in play.

All in all, a solid, versatile hybrid for those who want both distance, control, and a good dose of playability without having to be a tour player to make it work.
