Hi All,
So I've been playing the XR Pros since they came out and I've been very happy with them. In fact, in my constant search to "find the best irons for me" I've tried to kick them out with about every iron you can name. The XR Pros have stood up to ALL of them to the point where I've quit trying(irons that is...I'm still messing with drivers, hybrids and putters ). I've played some great golf this year with them and my index has come down 3 points with them as a big part of that drop.
My ONE complaint with them has been average at best feel. When the new Apex CF came out I was anxious to hit them. Honestly hitting them side by side with my XR Pros the peformance was very similar. The exceptions where higher launch with the longer irons and signifiicantly improved feel.
So the Apex CF seem to address my one major complaint in the feel of the XR Pros, but I'm wondering if it's enough to make the $1k switch. For those who have made the switch did you notice any other performance differences on the course outside of feel that would make you switch if you had it to do over again????
Thanks!
