Love this channel. It has probably become the most trustworthy and informative golf Channel on RUclips. Thank you for all the great content and work that goes into providing these videos.
Going for a Callaway fit on Friday. This couldn't have come at a better time. Great to be able to go in with some comparison info. Thanks guys.
Love that Apex Pro Dispersion
Great video - at last a Callaway comparison on irons - now drivers & woods 😉 👏👏👏👏
Hi Thomas & Drew Great 👍 Iron test, I consider myself a to have a good knowledge of different manufacturers club’s, But the New Callaway Iron Range has got me beat, So many different model’s it’s confusing, After 20 years of playing Callaway Irons, I have just bought a set of Titleist T300 iron’s much simpler choice understood their range much better, Thanks for explaining the Callaway range,9hcp 75year Senior golfer Dickey UK
Thanks 👍
I think the dcb is firmly in the game improvement category for what it’s worth
Love my DCB
Please put the lofts next to club name
Great review
There is so many option it is good to have summary of models. Also you should have someone swing clubs with higher handicap.
These Videos Rule Guys!!! Never stop making them please!
Thanks for watching! - Thomas
Great video and test. Thanks for doing this.
Great video and run down. Thanks
Apex pro are my clubs and I’m just in love with them
Great video , lots of information but surprisingly I followed you guys lol, you know I always liked the epic star but the price is insane so I never looked into that iron, I just purchased the apex tcb 8,9,pw idk if I made a mistake, I guess I'll find out in couple weeks ! I game the apex 19s and the lower scoring clubs and they go way to far for me! idk if that makes sense !! thanks guys
Love watching these comparisons with clubs. I, myself have the Apex21. I like it because it’s a ‘heavy’ club. Do you ever compare the clubs by weight? When I asked Callaway about upgrading to a more pro grade, he recommended the X-forged cb. I can’t find an x-at any golf store so I can’t compare the weight difference. Can you comment on the weight differences?
My buddy is left handed and bought the Rogue X’s in 2020. I was still gaming Tommy Armour 845’s from 35 years ago. lol. His friend bought some right handed Rogue X’s and couldn’t hit them, so my buddy bought them for me without asking. That was super nice of him and I greatly appreciated it. But, they aren’t exactly a good fit for my game. I am a lower handicap player and like to work the ball, and these huge game improvement irons have no feel for workability. I also don’t see the point in removing 3&4 irons by jacking down the loft’s, then leaving you at 41 degrees at PW. Now I need to add 4 wedges to my bag past the PW. How long will it take for one of these companies to slap the number 7 on a 1iron, and call it the longest club ever to be made? lol
I got a set of rogue st max. Golf shop told me they’d go farther. Just had my third back surgery so I need all the help I can get!
Yes they will provide you with more distance! let us know how they work out - Thomas
Thomas is a machine … great guy for this comparison.
Appreciate you watching - Thomas
Well I'm definitely happy with my choice of the Rogue ST Max, especially since I'm a fairly new player
Did the st max make a good difference? I’m a new player too and bought a beginner set of strata clubs from scheels. Been thinking about upgrading since I golf basically every week now since July but I’m still learning golf and don’t have good distance
@@Jaredxstp I had top flites before so it made a huge difference. They hit far when you get the sweet spot, I've been hitting my 6 iron about 210 off the t box. I golf just about every week and they've improved my game a lot
@@jakedeane3003 I’m gonna upgrade and see if it gives me more distance I can only hit my driver 220 haha I would like to get some distance out of my irons. Changing my ball from the Costco ball to Callaway supersoft seem to help but I feel my clubs aren’t the best since they are beginner Clubs
@@Jaredxstp Yeah balls do make a difference, I went to a Callaway fitting which is where I got my clubs from and they recommended Chrome soft balls. I like the pro v 1's too but if you're swinging slower you want something soft. Honestly the stratas aren't horrible clubs, they're definitely better than my old top flites were. It helps to just get a consistent good swing down and then when you get your new clubs you'll be able to notice the difference
@@jakedeane3003 thanks for all the help and responses I appreciate it!
Your timing could not have been better for this comparison! I am 72, just getting back into golf after a 5-year layoff due to injury, etc. I have played RAC LT irons with Rifle shafts since 2003, but need something different now with newer technology and an easier swinging shaft. I have hit the APEX 21, APEX Pro and Rogue ST Pro. I see you also got great numbers out of the X-Forged CB and APEX DCB. The clubs on both ends of these are not of interest to me based on my ability. Callaway also does Combo sets. Based on my swing speed, both the Dart 75 and MMT 85 are shafts that work best. If I wanted to Combo the set, would you recommend X-Forged CB or APEX Pro for the 8-PW, and APEX 21 or APEX DCB for the 5-7? If I were just doing a straight set, I think I would lean toward the APEX 21. Thanks for your thoughts!
Good stuff Denis! I think we would initially recommend Apex Pro and Apex DCB. Based on your swing speed, you'll likely need a bit more launch and spin, and each of those models is designed to provide more spin than the counterparts you included. With that said, you could also try Apex Pro and Apex 21, or Apex 21 and Apex DCB as your combo.
@@2ndswing Thanks guys! Will do. Keep up the great videos. You are always first on my list to watch!
10 different irons feels several too many in the Callaway range. Looking purely at the numbers the Rogue ST Pro and X Forged CB are functionally identical so I would question why both clubs exist - and then there is the Apex which once you take into account statistical significance again is so close to being functionally identical that I cannot see why there are 3 clubs rather than one in the range. At least I could see a little difference between Epic Max Star (didn't even realise that club existed) and Apex DCB - DCB flies higher, a lot higher, and has a steeper launch angle so I guess if you regularly play on windy courses there is a reason for both clubs to exist - and I really like a black finish on irons.
For me the stand out clubs were Apex DCB, Rogue ST Pro and TCB and for the right golfer maybe the Max OS - although the MBs are seriously beautiful, I am just not good enough to play them.
So the obvious question is why so many irons in the Callaway range?
After testing a few of these i opted for the apex 21. Brilliant irons for me
Wondering about the difference in off set ? Do you think more off set can make you strike it lower on face.
Great video! If I'm coming from JPX 900 Tours and am looking for a little bit more forgiveness, especially in the longer irons, would the Apex Pro or X-Forged CB be most comparable? Maybe I should look at an Apex, Apex Pro combo set?
Thanks for doing this comparison guys. I think apex is going to be the 1.
Where's the e19 epic forged star?? Smokes all these!
The big Bertha is still a super club for me, graphite shafts.
Quite sure that I will not be replacing them.
Thank you for watching! - Thomas
I know you can’t for them, but you didn’t include the Edge. A very, very popular set due to price. Would’ve been awfully nice to see their comparison.
i have the DCB but there is NOT a lot of feel and feedback for me, yes they are forgiving but so many shots feel dead (its probably my swing) so i stuffed up in my purchase process. manufacturers MUST start letting the customer play a round or 2 with a set of clubs it would help so much. The logistics would be a nightmare but they do make sh&t loads from we the consumer so i'm sure there is a easy compromise. Where i live we don't have access to trial sets. Not like the US and Can.
Thomas is swinging really, really well. Looks pretty
Thank you for watching - Thomas
@@2ndswing Good luck and play well in this year’s upcoming PGA Championship 👍🏻
Are you considering a switch to Apex pro ?
If I was your fitter, that's the iron I would suggest, based on dispertion, height, spin and small gain of distance between your gamer.
What do youu think ?
I doubt Thomas Campbell will change out of his TCB irons
What about good knock-offs vs the original irons? Cost is definitely a concern.
So what would work best for a handicap 50 player, the MAX or MAX OS?
I love your show before you hit each club please show a picture of it with the name otherwise we lose interest For those of us they don’t use these clubs every day what you’re doing helps us pick what we think would be good for us but without a picture and the name or lost
What's the spin like on the Rogue St max 8 iron. Because you wouldn't be hitting 7 vs 7, you'd be hitting your 8 or even 9 against your buddies
The Epic Max is forged and is written on the hosel.
I love the look of the max star wish it was made for the scratch golfer.
Thanks for your feedback - Thomas
There were so many heads it was jard to keep track.
I play apex pro 19 and love them but they sound terrible once you hit the 7 iron like crazy high pitch
What were you hitting range balls. The apex pro 19 is a great feeling and sounding club. Wish the 21 felt as nice and kept the shorter blade length.
@@DavidPetryk prov1 it just doesn’t have a soft sound compared to other players irons but I do still love them. They sound exactly like the 21s he hits here. P-8 is fine it’s when the cup face starts on the 4,5,6 that it starts to get that sound. It may even be the 7 but the short irons feel much better.
Are all these clubs blades?
Nice swing
For game improvement what about the Cleveland XL Launcher?
Pretty sure thats not a Callaway club?!
Shame you didn't test the Lite.
I really like my Ping G's but am afraid technology has passed them by. A senior golfer so money is limited.
Tcb is the one.
St Max os🙏👍👏👌
wow, they have a ton of irons…
