Ordered my combo set 2 months ago, still waiting for arrival! Have contacted BH and told the shafts are on back order. They did offer a substitute shaft if I wanted, declined because I want the shaft they fit me too. At least another month. So if you are buying be patient. Thx for the review, can’t wait till mine arrive.
Sorry to hear that, Brent. I know we are in the midst of club buying season. I have a couple buddies ordering clubs from other manufacturers and they are waiting 2-4 months. That would drive me nuts.
Question: If the Icons are shorter than the P790s and the PTx Pros are neck n' neck in distance with the P790s, does that mean you've got a weird distance gap between the PTx Pro 7-iron and the Icon 8-iron?
You would think that would be the case. It hasn't played out that way on the course. I've close to a dozen rounds in and I'm sticking greens pin high consistently. I've even got time on launch monitors (using range balls) and I haven't found awkward gapping. My plan is to get in a hitting bay with the premium balls I play and check for any gaps. I love the P790s, but they are not as consistent from shot to shot for me. I'll update with a post on my site sometime soon.
@@GolferGeeks That's my concern w/ the PTX Pros. Are the 4-7irons good on distance control? I have an old set of irons that are blade-like and I like how consistent the distances are off blades.
@@slytown I've had no issues with distance control. They are still player irons, just not blades. You can demo them through Hogan. Take out all the guesswork.
@@GolferGeeks awesome!!! I ordered a fitted set, very excited to get them. My last set of fitted clubs were Pings back in 2015 and they took about 8 months to get. Hopefully these take 1-2 months maybe. I am located in the Midwest US so maybe the shipping from Fort Worth and the build time won’t be too long. Thanks for the review!!
The Edge EX irons are meant for higher handicaps and upper-middle handicappers. The ICONs and PTx PROs are meant for low handicappers. Manufacturers don't combine clubs targeted for different handicaps.
Hi, thanks for the video. I’m currently a 7 handicap and am looking between getting a set of all ptx pros or getting the combo set. How did you find the gapping between the 7 and 8 iron.
10 yard gap so far, which is my standard. It will take me a while to dial this in. I need extended time on the course when my swing is on. Do not take this as gospel
@@GolferGeeks yeah, it was just to get a feel of your opinion. was concerned that the pros would go a lot further and the gap would be to big from 8 - 7 but 10 yards is comforting to hear. Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.
@@harryguarnori9941 this is also my concern before ordering. i dont want a chunky topline wedge and i dont want a bladed 4 iron. but idk how the gapping works. maybe they bend the icons a degree strong or something. did you end up ordering and if so whats your experience with the gapping?

What model grip do these irons come with?
I'm thinking about these. Since the 8-P in the PTX Pro set are already a solid construction, what made you decide on the Icons for 8-P?
I knew I could hit blade short irons and I wanted better control and accuracy. Plus, they look cool.

@@GolferGeeks Yea, I plan to do that. Thanks for the help.
how long did you wait to recieve these? i just put in my order for this set 2 days ago!
Just a few days.

How about the combo set with the new edge irons?

How about the combo set with the edge irons?
That'd be hard to do. They'd need closely related irons and they don't have them.

@@harryguarnori9941 Yeah, that's a valid concern. One thing helping make this less of an issue is the consistent gapping of 4*.
@@GolferGeeks thanks for your help and I enjoy the videos, keep it up👍🏻
