Oh haha. Trade fodder?I do for like, another week? Lol I was hoping to do side-by-sides but might need to send off the XFCB before the TCB get here.
I was going to ask you if you were playing these. I got mine on the sim (GC hawk) for their 2nd round today and I absolutely love the feel of them. Taking them in Tuesday to get them bent 1.5* flat and get the lofts checked. I was gettingYou guys want to have a chat about these?
I’m hoping you get them in before you have to send the x-forged away. I’m still debating ordering the tcb’s but I am liking the x-forged so far and the offset that everyone dislikes so much isn’t bothering me yet. The more I hit them the less I notice it.I do for like, another week? Lol I was hoping to do side-by-sides but might need to send off the XFCB before the TCB get here.
I am. Have had about four rounds now to digest them out there. Problem right now here is the soft ground, so I seem to be having a tendency to go a bit more thin than flush (which has annoyed me a lot haha). That said, I came out of it a bit yesterday and started to hit some SERIOUSLY flush feeling shots, that resulted in a bunch of greens hit.I was going to ask you if you were playing these.

what I expect for distances and I am liking the px IO shafts a lot. The only thing I can’t decide on is whether I change the grips to my usual mcc+4 or give the bct cords a trial on the course
Yep. They fetch a decent price on trade-in. Along with some ones Callaway didn't even have in their trade-in trade-up online options yet. Which is good because my Customs hunger was strong this year.Oh haha. Trade fodder?
Question to all the guys that have hit or played with both the Callaway X-Forged CBs and the Apex Pro's, Which one in your opinion feels, sounds, and performs better than the other? Also, which one has the best distance over one another?

Man, loaded question.Question to all the guys that have hit or played with both the Callaway X-Forged CBs and the Apex Pro's, Which one in your opinion feels, sounds, and performs better than the other? Also, which one has the best distance over one another?
I would echo some of what Dan said. They're both great, so it's going to be personal preference and a little bit of ability, maybe. The Pros are more forgiving imo. I like the sound and feel of the X Forged better, but the feel of the Pros is pretty addicting/satisfying for most people. I hear and feel them in a way most don't seem to care about. Not bad, but definitely there. Distance is going to depend on your swing dynamics and what you need in a head to get the most out of the ball for you. The xfcb can be even lower spinning and longer than the Pros, but if you need the get up^ to get the most out of a your flight the Pros would probably be longer for you. I've mostly enjoyed playing them both.Question to all the guys that have hit or played with both the Callaway X-Forged CBs and the Apex Pro's, Which one in your opinion feels, sounds, and performs better than the other?

That’s the one knock I have with the apex pro. They have a little bit of a click to them. Probably due to the cup face and tungsten. The xfcb does feel more solid.Dropping mine off tomorrow morning to have the lies adjusted and lofts verified. Can’t wait to get these on grass. When I texted both these and the apex pro distance on average was very similar and spin was actually lower with the c-forged which was a good thing for me. I also thought the feel of the x-forged was more solid than the pros.
Spring is coming. You'll be out there hitting non-frozen balls in no time, and they'll feel even better! I love that there will be another IO player out there too. Every player who is even a reasonable fit for one of my IO sets and tries them, loves them. Yet I still never see them in the wild. I'm grateful they put that shaft as a stock pairing and fitting cart option with the XFCB's because I got to demo it a ton. Ordered them in my MB's without being able to try them together, I'll soon have them in 4 different heads, and the 5th I've put in play. I like 'em.As the snow slowly melts and there is more grass showing throughout the yard I went and hit a bunch of 9 irons from the shop out to the front yard. I have about 165 yards from the house to the end of the front yard so I’m able to take full swings. The power pole is roughly 150y out so it gives me a good target. Found about half the balls that didn’t end up in the snow, and kept hitting for about an hour (half the time AER hung for balls). Even hitting cold balls these irons feel fantastic, I am really liking the I/O shaft so far. Very straight flight. Getting super excited for the the year to start. You guys down South don’t know how good you have it!
I have and still have some PX 6.0 and 6.5. I've played AMT Whites a ton for the same reason you said. What fits well elsewhere can feel like a lot of work in the long irons. Love AMT's for that. Outside of a set of them I've been trying to stay in the 115-120g range so I don't have to work too hard at the long end and the IO's have been a really pleasant surprise there. They hold up well for 115g too. Here's the weird thing about LS for me. I've tried the LS 120 and I can't tell hardly any difference between it and the IO 115. The LS feels the same to me, just a bit stiffer maybe. I don't know if they're meant to or not, but I could play either one.@OldandStiff did you play regular px in the past? I played them for years and moved on a couple of years ago as I started to feel like the long irons were getting to be more work than I liked. So far in the 2 sim rounds I have had the long irons feel great. Played DG amt tour white for a year and I really liked them. Last year I played modus 120’s for the year and for some reason they weren’t a really good fit for me even though they felt fantastic. Happy to be back in PX’s and love the finish on these. Also, have you tried the LS?
Nice, I am itching to get the long irons outside. I might have to go pound a couple 4 irons tonight out to the fieldI have and still have some PX 6.0 and 6.5.

I see a couple of them in the retail racks here with stock IO 6.0's. Have you tried calling stores to see if they have I've that would work for you?Called to check on the backorder of the AW I made a month ago...bad news is the head production is behind. Rep told me that it was going to be July before they got any heads in. I decided to cancel...I am sure I will find something else to put the money towards. Maybe Apex Pros?

Doesn't sound that silly. I combo'd the XFCB a couple different ways. Across models, across brands, etc. I really liked playing the XFCB longs with P7MC shorts a couple times. And the Apex Pro long irons are really good. I plan to use the 4i with my TCB's 5-A. Whatever works best for you is smart, not silly.This may sound like a silly idea, I’m considering a combo of Apex Pros and XForged in the short irons.
Now this is somewhat based on my play with the AW in both sets. The long irons in Apex Pro have been great but having both gaps wedges out this past month I easily like the XForged better.
Now it could partly be the shaft or just a small sample size, I need to do some more testing.
