- The AI at Callaway has been on overtime designing the first face for the APEX line and other advanced features. Another surprising feature is the shaft availability for the iron line. There cannot be a loser in the field
Great review Jim, the new APEX Irons are 3 nice ranges👍
But I'm worried that the "voice in your head" is now talking to the "voice in my head" and I'm running out of space inside my head😜🤦♂️
Awesome review. You are getting a lot of distance out of those clubs. Question: When will lofts stay the same and not drop?
I know, my smash factor was high when testing, Loft changes will keep moving as long as the technology will allow it.
DCB sounds like a winner to me as soon as I win the lotto.
Have 4-5 DCb 6-u in regular apex. Don’t like dcb. The feel. The sound Everything about it. The regular Apex is great. Sound feel looks. Everything
Thanks Jim! Which shaft was your favorite? It would be great to see the dispersion test again with whichever shaft you preferred. Curious to how dispersion correlates to the head VS shaft.
Wow...that was surreal Jim, I kept hearing your voice in the ether 😉
I might just have to demo those Pro's! Those distances are mental thats 40yards on my '08 Cobra Pro MB's
However, Apex MB should drop in price now and I would love a set of those in the Raw finish 😍😍😍
I wouldn't count on it, They are also included on the combo sets they are offering.
@@McGolf disaster! I love the look of the Apex MBs too 👍
I have the apex DCB and it’s crazy how much better I hit them , I was using the X hot but I am glad I got the DCB I even got the hybrid 3 to complete it I shoot around a 95 per round and first time out shot a 90
Love my Apex pros....I will always hit Apex....nothing feels so good off the ball to me. The sound the feel are unbeatable
Nice review Jim. Thanks for sharing.
Have apex pro 2019’s and love them but the new ones are super pretty! I’m about a 2 handicap and love them. Are they any smaller in blade length from the 2019 model?
I'd like to know how the Apex compares to the Mavrik irons, in your opinion
The 21 apex will feel smoother or softer than the mavriks, The mavriks will go a bit further due to the loft strength. The regular mavik has more offset that the APEX in my opinion. I liked the smaller appearance of the mavrik but for lowering scores Id consider the Apex club
Great video. Callaway offers the mixed combo of the Pro and Standard, which I am considering as a 6 handicap. Wondering how a combo set manages the loft differences. For example, the Apex standard 7 iron is 30.5 degrees and the Apex Pro 8 iron is 37 degrees. Wouldn’t the combo set create too great a disparity between the clubs? Would you be able to expand upon how that works? Does Callaway adjust the lofts to be closer when you buy a combo set? Thanks again for the great content!
They bend the irons to be in line
excellent Jim I have the ping g410 but thinking of getting fitted for these
PING is an excellent club but it never hurts to try out new gear
Hey Jim, great review.
Question: I’ve been struggling with too much height on my Mavrik GW (bent to 49) and AW (bent to 44), with stock Elevate 95 shafts. Would the difference in offset and clubhead of the Apex 21 Irons help solve that issue, giving me less height but more distance?
Also how much does lengthening a shaft in the butt section affect the characteristics of that shaft?
Thanks! Love the channel!
Rory,
keep in mind these are made to launch the ball high the Mavrik higher than the APEX for sure however to the naked eye you may not perceive the difference. I would also look at moving the ball just ever so slightly back in the stance. alot of golfer put it forward much like a longer iron. A bit further back may solve the whole thing.
I thought there is no au cup face in the 8-gw irons. Currently game the apex cf19 but want to change as too clicky, clunky and too much offset. Almost got the apex pro last time. Looking at the mixed combo but only 7-gw even though in my mid 60s. Or else go the route of pxg gen 3 when gen 4 out or else the jpx 921 sel.
Thank you Sir!
That Apex Pro looks stunning.
Looks very similar to the Maltby TS-1.
I liked the old recoil shaft in the Apex 19, I'm suprised that the elevate is a higher launch shaft than the graphite recoil, I like the lower weight of the recoil but prefer the higher launch of the elevate, a fitting is obviously the way to go, any more to add about the shafts?
The elevates do come in an 80ish gram version that may help you in the decision making process
Jim, I’m looking to spend about 1000-1250 dollars on a new set. I don’t hit the ball consistently but I can hit the ball further than anyone I know. What would you recommend I start testing for irons?
Wilson in the proper design meaning either Dynapwr or D9 Forged. Right now there is sale on the 21 apexs. That might just what the doctor ordered.
@@McGolf I commented a couple years back. I ended up buying the Apex’s! Thanks for the reply
What is the point in stronger lofted irons , it won't be long before the first iron in the bag will be a 7.
Ive said we will just call it the 7 wedge. but golfers are alway looking for distance and the companies are giving it to us. At least now, in the past it truly was just a 5 iron with a 6 stamped on it. today there is a science to the stronger loft to give a simiar trajectory although spin is lower
I currently have the kbs tgi 90 in my apex and is quite stable though perhaps my swing speed is slower than this requires. Indeed when fitted with the pxg they put me in the kbs max 65. What is your thought on how the mmt 85 or ust dart compare especially in being more stable vis stiffer tips.
TGI and the max shaft a two very different profiles. The max line is more butt soft and would launch a the 90 is more a light weight tour shaft where the max is more the Kbs 90 steel only lighter
@@McGolf thanks. Very helpful and good to know. Sometimes difficult to figure this out from the general specs that give only average indicators like mid launch mid spin and not always sure how much of a difference a slight variation in torque numbers mean to the swing.
@@McGolf I wanted to reach out to you also as there is lockdown here and has been for months now with golf courses and ranges closed. So am having to make some assessments on the fly so to speak and would welcome your experience and suggestion between two graphite shaft options that I am thinking about for either the apex pro 21 or the pxg gen 3 p irons. And that is between the Mitsubishi MMT that I have so far never tried and the kbs max graphite 65. Any thoughts?
@@McGolf I wanted also the check your thoughts on the following shafts as I am not able to try them. The context is the pxg gen 3 p iron (I am a leftie). I need to debate between the following four shafts - a year ago I tested and liked the kbs max graphite 65. My current shaft in my current cf19 is the kbs tgi 90. The options I have are: 1. Mitsubishi mmt 70; 2. Kbs tgi 70; 3. Accra i70; and 4. Kbs max graphite 65. Amy thoughts on differences or advice?
@@alysgolfstudio567 I dont think either are a bad choice. The KBS model will be a bit softer IMO where the MMT will be for the golfer with the slightly stronger release.
Are the iron heads any heavier because of the extra tungsten ? any issues swapping out shafts and getting weird swingweight?
weights are in tolerance, just moved around inside,an excellent question though
Ok, good to hear.
Whst is your opinion on feel from a comparison of an older x forged iron (2007 with flighted 6.0 shaft) to say the apex pro?
the older irons were a single piece and a different feel. The misses on the new pro will be softer and less penal
Can you compare the Apex DCB irons with the Big Bertha B21 irons? I'd like to know how big a difference there is between the two, thanks.
good idea. Off the top of my head the BB21 will be more "draw bias" than the DCB and the DCB will sound or even feel a bit softer. Distance should be similar but I will test.
Also no titanium I believe in the 8-gw.
the pro model hit the ball higher than the other apex also lunch higher
I dont see much difference compared to my CF16's. Great looking irons none the less!
I ave some 16s too. The new ones are more compact, probably a little more stronger if you can believe that, more weight moved around inside and the AI face,
@@McGolf they are stronger??? You are right I cant believe that
Hello from snow covered Lancashire in the UK
and snowy Manchester👍
and now snowy Ohio we received a few inches of the white death last night
@@McGolf Luckily here in the UK snow doesn't last long before it starts raining and washes it all away
Lockdown and snow, could not get any worse for activities!
@@davidhall9851 True, not sure where you are in Lancs David, but it's like a Spring day here in Manchester. All we need is for the Courses to dry out and for Boris to let us play again, then hopefully things can start getting back to some sort of normality 🤞👍
These won’t be any diff from any other clubs in the recent years. Fact is still need to control face to path. That’s the game.
and that's a fitting
