#BEN HOGAN APEX FTX IRONS PLUS#
3~6 Plus irons with muscle back, and 7~E Edge irons with deep under cut cavities.
I used mixed Plus and Edge to haev my own combo set. Since Callaway no longer markets the Hogans, it is my strategy to stock the nicely used Ben Hogan now!
#BEN HOGAN APEX FTX IRONS PRO#
I bought Edge pro with graphite shafts in order to pre-stock light weight irons when I am old. The 40th legend irons are blade irons and it will be my weapon in the future when I think my swing is capable of using blades. I left my reviews of Apex Plus and Apex Edge. I bought Apex Plus, Apex Edge, the 40th Anniversary Legend and Apex Edge Pro. I have been hooked on Ben Hogan irons since last October. I am absolutely positive I won't find a better deal on these clubs anywhere, anytime. I couldn't be happier with them.īought these clubs on e-Bay because the price was a very good deal, and the set was super-complete, having the 2 thru 9, E (PW), F (GW), S (SW), and L (LW) - twelve (12) clubs in all. The Apex 4 shaft is supposed to be a stiff flex, but it seems to play a bit softer than other brands' stiff flex. Finally, along with my MacGregor VIPs, these are the prettiest looking clubs I've seen in a long while. I know the FTX model is not a new one, and certainly not riddled in technology, but who needs all that? The basic idea of perimeter-weighting the long clubs and muscle-backing the short ones is all you need. And the wedges are so fantastic arou nd the greens, I even holed out a short pitch with the F (gap) wedge for birdie the first time I played the clubs.
The muscle-back short irons make shot control a breeze.
The cavity-back in the long irons really help get the shots airborne easily. I could control any shot I wanted - fades, draws, high, low - just set it up and go! Hit a fade-slice 5-iron shot dead into a 20 mph breeze, around a forest of palm trees, right onto the green. By far, the Hogan Apex FTX have the sweetest feel at impact - soft, but not too "buttery". I've also hit my friends' Mizuno MP 30 and MP 32. I've played a lot of forged clubs (MacGregor VIP 1025M, Titleist 695CB, MacGregor VIP by Nicklaus, MacGregor Tourney DX, Bridgestone J33, TaylorMade RAC TP MB, Cleveland TA3 FF). Love the sweet, soft feel of a well struck shot with these clubs.
