This is an excellent club for the high index player to graduate to

Those currently using cast cavity back clubs and are looking to work the ball and lower your handicap, make the move to the Hogans. The long proven technology will aid you in your quest.The cost is resonable (get fitted) and the long term reward is immeasurable. Remember always play like your a winner….smile alot even if you missed your putt.

I have a golf business and have bought, sold, and played almost everything.

Forged Hogan is the best. They feel SO much softer and sweeter than Callaway (brick on a stick), Ping (straight but short), TaylorMade (nice clubs, but not spectacular), Cleveland (hit them on the sweet spot or suffer), Nike (Pro-forged has so-so feel), McGregor (just a bit too heavy), and even the vaunted Mizuno forged irons (super low launch angle, and not even close to Hogan for feel).

They say the new Hogan FTX is not quite as good, but to me they are identical to the Plus. Guess I am not sensitive enough to feel the difference.

The Apex Plus is a muscle back, rather than a blade, so you do get some foregiveness on mis-hits, but not a lot. The swing weight feels very light, and encourages a higher swing speed. Totally workable for fades, draws, knock-downs, or high soft ones.

Distance is very good, especially considering that they did not “cheat” and use lower lofts to get it (the E, or pitching wedge, is 46 degrees… perfect for a four wedge set of 46-50-54-58.

One drawback; the grips suck. Not that great to start with and they wear fast.

I would never buy a Hogan driver, wedge, or putter, but the irons are truly great. Same goes for the hybrids. Just the sweetest longest most workable clubs you can find.

Short to the point and accurate

I always felt I needed a more upright iron, and to actually use a club for a number of days instead of an hour on “DEMO” day seemed to be a much better test. Of course PING has always been one of the premier irons and their quality control is second to none so I bought the DEMO club for a true test. The five degrees upright for my tall frame ( 6′4″ ) and shorter arms is just what the Doctor ordered as the iron fit me perfectly. I am a lower HDC, (2.4) and I found that hitting this club was easier than my older set of irons and that there were more solid shots than I expected. Golf became more fun again, and if you are a golfer you know what I mean when you hit it more solid more often…..it was more like play instead of work. I’m sure you have felt, sometimes golf can just be tough and to fight your irons while you are trying to have fun, well it’s just NOT that fun. The outcome was this, I liked the set-up so well that I bought a set of PING IRONS on ebay that had these specs and have played with them and have been more than pleased. Ping has a fitting chart at many golf stores that would give you a good indication what “LIE” you mjay need ( color coded dots ) and length. I’d then recommend to go back to ebay find that same demo club ( they have a lot of different ones ) get it for your self, pound some balls on a few different days and see if that is the club for you…..then go forth and have fun again with a full set of irons. Good golfing

I bought this driver after trying it on the golf course

I Am Legend, home May 20th, 2008

My husband & I were in a foursome with 2 guys from out of town. One had this driver and I asked to try it. I was using a man’s ERC anyway and he had a newer model. I tried it and loved it from the start. I gained at least 20 yards or more on my drive and it felt great hitting the club. I was determined to get that club. I searched all over town but nobody carried that club anymore. I even called Callaway but they didn’t have that one either. To make a long story short, I found it on Ebay and tried bidding a few times but lost out. I finally found one where I could buy it out right. I didn’t hesitate to do that and the price was right. It was the best investment I made for a club of that quality. I’d recommend this club to anyone that wants more distance. I the only thing I don’t like, I have to wait for my husband to use it before I get to hit. He too, fell in love with the club.

my game has changed. Hitting the 5 iron is just like hitting the 8 iron

cleveland-hi-bore-irons.JPGI moved from a mix and match set of irons (7 through lob wedge), a 5 hybrid, and driver through 7 wood. I can’t hit a long iron at all. With the Hi-Bore irons, my game has changed. Hitting the 5 iron is just like hitting the 8 iron… it just goes farther.

Like all of the reviews say, these clubs are certainly easy to hit. The ball wants to go straight and off center shots still carry good distances Perhaps this will cause me to be a “less precise” golfer, but I can live with that. I’m not trying to make a career out of golf, I just want to enjoy playing. My set now includes a driver, my Hi-Bore irons, a lob wedge and a putter.

Several reviewers have commented that they didn’t like the pitching wedge. I can hit the pitching wedge reasonably accurately, but it definitely carries about 15 yards shorter than my previous wedge. That’s not a problem for me, it just means I don’t need a sand wedge any more.

As for the long irons… these are sweet! I can hit them consistently, accurately, and long. Great set of irons. I’m a mid 80’s golfer (score… not age) and I’m completely satisfied with my purchase.
