Launch and forgiveness will surely be different, but I don't see why it wouldn't. I have a feeling I'll be finding out though.I'd be curious to know if the new Apex pro 4 iron can hang with the X Forged utility 4.
First Look: Callaway Apex 21 Irons
It may take an act of the man above for those pros to not end up in my bag.

99% sure i will. assuming trade values hold. looking like my out of pocket will be minimal. pros all the way. embrace the masochism.
I won’t be buying a set. As long as I am playing this profile, I am sold on the Cobra Tour MIMs. However, the Pros are one of the best looking players’ irons I have ever seen, at least to my taste. They truly make me salivate.

I am very content with my irons too! Hard to plunk down another 800 or so $ when the 19s are so good.

Or upgrades too! I was leaning towards the i500 initially and then switched to the CF19s. The CTaper lite shafts were a no ipcharge with CG and $35 a shaft with Ping.

it’s not hard at all. you just convince yourself that new irons will fix everything and it’s a no-brainer.
but you also have to forget that the last eleventy thousand times you convinced yourself of the same, you were wrong. THIS time will be different.
Yep. Pre order 28th. Lock and load.
So the question for people that think they don't need them is, do you really want to live without hope?

Just went through this thread from yesterday & still blown away by the technology that Callaway packed into these. Add in the shaft options being offered & man I do want a set of these. Now to determine is it a combo set or a Triple Play or just a straight set. Right now every set looks absolutely fantastic. I’m going to need to hit all of them or get fit.
In case anyone wanted to "draft" potential trade values, here you go

This I really noted also. Loved the feel of the Apex Pro19 but would always catch the toe on miss hits, not much but just enough to miss that sweet spot.
Hope is for the innocent and the dying. Somebody told me that. Can’t remember who...
I would go 52 and 58 and add a club to the top of the bag.Man, the excitement continues to roll in and I love reading all of the comments. Quick question for gapping moving into wedges for folks that maybe have the 19's or are are smarter than me in general (not hard to accomplish). I'm really lookimg at going to a 3 wedge setup after the set AW which is different for me. With the AW being 48 what wedge would you place next? 52, 56, 60? Or perhaps 50, 54, 58. I do tend to flop my current 58 a lot around the green and don't mind the loft. Curious what others are using since these have a stronger loft than my currents.

I would like to bend my 54 to 53 which would help even out my gapping but I haven’t done it yet. I do really like the set AW it is a very good and versatile club.Man, the excitement continues to roll in and I love reading all of the comments.

I have the 19 Apex Pro combo and i am.very happy with it. I wasnt sure about the pro combo but found that i could play the pros and truly believe in addition to being great irons the pros made me focus even more on center face contact and i believe that carried over to the non pros irons as well. Happy with the set and was not thinking of making a change this year but reading this thread now has me thinking. Your comments really caught my attention. Does the enlarged sweet spot carry over into the pros in the combo ? I wonder how they would compare to the 19 Pros in terms of forgiveness. I also saw a comment about the versatility of the 19 pro A wedge. Could not agree more love that wedge, Total confidence in it.
Still very much trying to figure out which combo set to pull the trigger on. I bought irons last year but am very excited about these. Better to ask for forgiveness than permission when I end up most likely grabbing a set of them lol

Nope. Honestly, the email from Callway yesterday was the first I had heard/seen of them.
I doubt many of us are innocent, but we're all dying. We need it!
I won't need either. I've my own "mad money" set aside just in case I decide new irons are in the cards this coming season
I did it with my current driver (don't yet know if that worked), my current woods (limited initial experience suggests it did), and my newest putter (it worked). I won't be doing that with $1400+ of irons, though. I will be getting fit. I suspect I'll end up with either these (probably DCBs, but could be DCBs + standard), Cobra RADs, or Srixon ZX5s. I have to say: Of the three, I'm liking the looks of these Apex 21s the best.
If I end up with these, the only clubs in my bag that won't be Callaway will be my CBX wedges.
