Two years ago, Callaway released the Apex line of clubs and golfers quickly reacted to the unique blended set of performance in forgiveness with extremely positive thoughts. Today Callaway is announcing the follow up to that set, named the Apex Pro 16 or New Apex Pro Irons and the changes are very interesting.
What’s New
Callaway went right to the tour players to find out what they like in irons and relied heavily on their feedback for this design. The irons have a classic look and what they describe as a soft feel from the materials and quadruple net forging that their best players in the world demand.
Features
Tour Influenced Shaping and Design
This is a classic look that the best players want to see, and their extensive input played a huge role in how Callaway designed this set.
Progressive CG for Playability and Precision
Callaway used a multi-material design that optimizes the Center of Gravity of each club. The longer irons (3-5) have more offset and a tungsten insert to lower CG for higher launch. The shorter irons (6-A) have a higher CG for a controlled, penetrating trajectory.

First look makes me want to hit them.
These do not look “scary to hit” for a pro version.
Hmm, definitely don’t look intimidating.
Love the looks of these and seem to be a pretty inviting package. Hopefully we find increased forgiveness over the previous model, it’ll be a battle for me with this entire lineup.
I love my Apex Pros. Really interested to hear about how these compare in feel and play vs mine.
Nice looking irons. I really liked the previous version of the Apex Pros so I will definitely demo these.
So no cup face in the pros? I need to demo a set of these.
