Our Callaway X Forged irons review took place at the Golf Shack at Moor Allerton in Leeds.
We gathered data using a Foresight GC Quad launch monitor thanks to PGA professional James Whitaker.
Callaway X Forged irons review – First impressions
The irons arrived into our offices at the same time as the new Apex MB.
They both look sensational but after putting them both into the address position it was clear the X Forged were the most appealing to me.
It just looks like there’s a bit more golf club so they aren’t anywhere near as intimidating.
The finish on the X Forged is also superb it’s more off a brushed chrome effect compared to the mirror-like Apex MB.
This is a model that many players have loved over the years – Phil Mickelson has been using the 2013 X Forged model for some time now.
I actually spotted Callaway staffer Alex Noren testing the 2018 X Forged at the British Masters so he may be making the move from the 2016 Apex Pro irons.
