I’m still pretty smitten with the Cobra Forged Tecs, but haven’t tried any of the other current lines

No, I think those cover it. Those are the three I was thinking of. I do think VRS forged hit one year before Apex. I think Apex made the category what it is, though.Amp Forged perhaps.
S2 Forged is another one that was strong lofted, forged player style shape that was slightly larger.
But I think @JB is going an even different direction.
Oddly enough another one I think of is Srixon Z star iron and Nike VRS Forged…which I think hit 1 year prior to Callaway Apex(but I didn’t check the dates).
I don’t disagree…those were my GD irons.The Apex came out in 2014, but I think the addition of the Cup Face on the 2016 version took it to the next level.
I think Apex really shined the light on the PD category. Then we saw what PXG/TM did and that opened up another avenue within said category. Now we have a wide selection for those who want to play an iron like this.No, I think those cover it. Those are the three I was thinking of. I do think VRS forged hit one year before Apex.

Agree. Those Cobra irons were so ahead of their timeI think Apex really shined the light on the PD category. Then we saw what PXG/TM did and that opened up another avenue within said category. Now we have a wide selection for those who want to play an iron like this.
I’d lean in that direction with it. There are two CBs and an MB ahead of it.You’d categorize Apex as GI?
My GD irons were Rogue Pro, because I already had a set of Apex CF16.I don’t disagree…those were my GD irons.
i think it's srixon zx5 for me
PXG would say that TaylorMade stole PXG’s technology to “invent” the P790.The Caley Golf irons that have foam in them
Other than that, it has to be P790 right? I feel like they kind of invented this category
yes they were. Felt pretty darn good too.Agree. Those Cobra irons were so ahead of their time
the reason for me that Apex doesn't sit in the GI group is because they created the Apex DCB. I don't know what the future is for Apex, but if they continue with the DCB, that lineup is going to be 5 deep. I'm here for it.I’d lean in that direction with it. There are two CBs and an MB ahead of it.
Lots of -y going on in this interchange. I feel the same as you. The lines get blurry, but I don’t see the P790 as the same type of iron as the T150 or King Tour, although they both generate some good ball speed. To me, it would be like saying the T150=T200 and the King Tour=King Forged Tec.i mean i guess they're more distance-y than their more players-y category (king cb/mb, t100). but in the player's distance category i think they'd be much more players-y than distance-y.
-y

that's why I hate iron classification. @JB and I have been having that conversation for over a decade.Lots of -y going on in this interchange. I feel the same as you.

Forget player distance irons now I want to go to Costco for a slice and a sodaDo they come with a slice of pizza and a Diet Coke?
I’d be shocked if it stopped at 5 now that they are separate.the reason for me that Apex doesn't sit in the GI group is because they created the Apex DCB. I don't know what the future is for Apex, but if they continue with the DCB, that lineup is going to be 5 deep. I'm here for it.
you and I are on the same page friend.I’d be shocked if it stopped at 5 now that they are separate.
That’s terrifying to me.you and I are on the same page friend.
you love it.That’s terrifying to me.
Everything is a distance iron for him.Because they're not players distance irons.
