New release of Callaway Apex Pro Forged Irons

Upgraded from callaway razr x irons to  Apex Pro Forged Irons. The feeling of hitting the ball flush is incredible. I definitely have more "feel" with these clubs and I am better able to work the ball compared to my other irons.They are more forgiving than muscleback irons and their looks can't be beat. 

Having created quite a buzz with the release of their Apex irons, Callaway have announced the launch of their better-player, Apex Pro irons. Forged from the same 1020 carbon steel as Callaway's X Forged irons, released earlier this year, the Apex Pro is a multi-material, compact, cavity-back iron designed for Callaway's Tour players and low-handicap players.

The Apex Pro is a technology driven iron at heart. The face material is actually the Carpenter 455 material Callaway uses in their X Hot Fairway Woods. Inspired by the general shape and function of the 2013 model of Callaway's X Forged iron, there is one important difference however: The face of the Apex Pro is 17 percent thinner than that of the X Forged. This thin face places Apex Pro in a new flexible-face category, composed of irons intended to provide additional ball speed because of added trampoline effect in the face.

Callaway, after extensive research and testing with its staff professionals, decided to bypass aggressive grooves in the Apex Pro. The stock version of the Apex Pro iron contains grooves that create only a moderate amount of spin. In general, less spin means higher trajectory and extra carry distance. More spin meant just the opposite. Low-handicap amateurs face the same dilemma as pros, so Callaway decided to bypass aggressive grooves in the Apex Pro. Test results from 5-iron testing with Callaway touring pros: Less spin produced a higher trajectory with as much as 8 or 9 additional yards of carry and "upwards of 13 yards" in total distance.

The premium forged body gives Callaway Apex Pro Forged Irons a look and feel that was once reserved only for players irons. But ultimately, what makes Apex Pro a first in golf is that it combines forging with technology and performance to arrive at a forged iron that is very long and also has the performance characteristics of a forged iron, in terms of the soft, responsive feel and the look that you get from a forging.

Whilst the long irons feature the sole weights, the shorter irons from 6-PW do not. Without the additional weight in the sole they offer a higher CG that is better suited to flighting the ball down and controlling shots into the green.Of course anytime a company adds weight to a club it is usually sacrificed elsewhere. That is what makes way for the cavity-back design. Although most think Tour players prefer the feel and performance of a blade iron, by adding this cavity on the Apex Pro, Callaway were able to tinker with the weight and offer, what they believe is, a more complete iron. 

Callaway has introduced a new tour-inspired 37WV, which stands for 37 degree wide-spaced V grooves. This aims to launch the ball higher with less spin, which may sound sound contrary to what a better-player wants, but Callaway's research proved otherwise. Their tests showed that better players, who naturally produce more clubhead speed, were hitting shots with too much spin, especially from the rough, leading to a loss of distance and consistency.

All in all,these golf clubs for sale look fantastic not only in the bag, but also at impact. They are pretty forgiving for a forged iron, but they will force you to correct your issues at impact, making you a much better player if you put the time in. Absolutely fantastic clubs. Can't get much better.
