-
Pure Forged Performance: Forged as a one-piece body and face from 1025 carbon steel using a proprietary process, delivering an exceptionally pure, soft feel at impact, cherished by elite players.
-
Progressive CG Design: Features a lower center of gravity in long irons for higher, softer-landing shots and a higher CG in short irons for lower, controlled trajectories with increased spin, enhancing trajectory control throughout the set.
-
Dynamic Sole Design: Incorporates a dual chamfer with a pre-worn leading edge to cut through turf efficiently and a trailing edge chamfer for smooth exit, maintaining clubhead speed and promoting consistent contact.
-
Classic Blade Aesthetics: Offers a thin topline, minimal offset, and compact head shape for a traditional look, blending seamlessly with other Apex Pro Series irons for combo set possibilities.
-
MIM Weighting: Metal Injection Molded (MIM) back weight allows fitters to precisely dial in swing weight, ensuring optimal performance for custom builds.

Performance Notes:
-
Player Profile: Designed for elite, low-handicap golfers (0–5 handicap) with high swing speeds (95–110+ mph driver speed), prioritizing workability, precision, and feel over forgiveness.
-
Distance and Workability: Testing shows slightly shorter carry than players’ distance irons (e.g., 7-iron at 160–170 yards for 90 mph swing speed, ~6,500–7,000 rpm spin), but exceptional shot-shaping control and tight dispersion. Mishits result in noticeable distance loss, as expected from a blade.
-
Feel and Sound: Forged construction delivers a buttery, responsive feel on center strikes with a deep, satisfying sound. Mishits produce a harsh “clank,” providing clear feedback for skilled players.
-
Shaft Options: Stock shafts include True Temper Dynamic Gold Mid 115 (Regular/Stiff, steel, ~115g, mid launch/spin) and Mitsubishi MMT (85/95/105, graphite, mid-high launch). Custom shafts available (e.g., Project X, KBS).
-
Grip: Stock Golf Pride Z-Grip Chevron Firm Black/Silver (50g); custom options like Golf Pride MCC or Tour Velvet available.
