Great irons to consider against the competition
June 4, 2025
After playing with my Callaway apex cf 16 for several years, I decided to look for something more forgiving. After trying out several irons I kept coming back to these ones. It is a players distance iron with very strong lofts. The sleek design has a great look behind the ball as opposed to game improvement irons.
Where the Forged Tec X really shines is in its forgiveness. Off-center hits stay online with decent distance retention, and the wide sole helps with turf interaction—especially on heavier swings or fat shots.
The only downside is that the Forged Tec X irons aren’t as buttery smooth as my previous irons, and when you hit it thin you can really feel the vibration.
Pros
- Players distance irons with strong lofts
- Sleek design
- Very forgiving
Cons
- You really feel vibration on thin shots.
- Not buttery smooth but still has great feel on good shots.
