While the new Driver with Nano technology dominates the headlines, Mizuno delivers the technological answer to the most difficult shots in golf with the matching JPX One Fairwaywoods and Rescues: long approaches from the ground. With a new type of sole construction and optimized power centers, the series promises more consistency when it counts.
For many golfers, the Fairwaywood is the club in the bag that inspires the least confidence. The challenge of hitting the ball cleanly off the ground while generating the necessary height is technically demanding. This is exactly where Mizuno came in when developing the Mizuno JPX One Fairwaywoods and Hybrids. Instead of simply shrinking the Nanoalloy technology of the Driver, the engineering teams developed specific solutions for the interaction with the turf.

The most striking feature of the new Woods and Rescues is the so-called Speed Bevel sole. This is a strategically raised leading edge. This ensures that the club head glides more smoothly over the grass on contact with the ground instead of digging into the ground. Players benefit from a significantly more stable club head speed at impact, even if the ball is hit slightly too fat.
Hidden behind the high-strength MAS1C steel face is the advanced CORTECH Chamber. This chamber contains a four-gram stainless steel weight embedded in elastic TPU material. The innovation for 2026: The clearance between the weight and the housing has been increased on the sides (heel and toe).
Since statistically many miss-hits with Fairwaywoods and Hybrids occur in the lower area of the clubface or slightly offset from the center, this system buffers the energy loss. The clubface can flex more in these critical areas, which keeps the ball speed high even with unclean hits.

In order to place the center of gravity as low as possible, Mizuno uses a wrap-around carbon crown for the Fairwaywoods. This saves weight at the top, which ensures an easier ball launch low in the head. The expansion of the model range is particularly exciting:
The Hybrids (Rescues) in the series build a bridge to the popular JPX Irons. Instead of carbon, Mizuno uses the so-called Waffle Crown - an internal lattice structure that makes the crown extremely thin and light without losing stability.
The profile of the Rescues is deliberately designed to resemble an iron, with minimal offset. This gives confidence especially to those players who prefer a classic look. The clubface has a constant thickness of 1.8 mm, which ensures enormous predictability in terms of distance - whether from the Fairway or from a difficult position in the Rough.
The Mizuno JPX One Fairwaywoods and Rescues are far more than just a complement to the Driver. They are specialized tools for golfers who value clean ground interaction and maximum forgiveness. By combining proven steel with an innovative sole shape, Mizuno proves once again that they understand the needs of the grassroots.
The entire series will be available in stores from January 22, 2026, with the pre-sale at All4Golf starting on January 12, 2026.
