I have been hitting these clubs at work.. for the 1st time the other day I hit the X2hot irons, and I cant believe how well the ball comes off.

I hit the 3hybrid, and was crushing it... with ease... the driver felt good, but the Big Bertha I thought was better.

Now the Apex Irons.. all 3 of of them.. holy cow.. I never was really a big Callaway fan till about 4 months ago... But these new Irons feel so great and look very good too. IMO

I couldn't take pics at work of the clubs cause we were told by the Rep not too.. but man i cant wait for them to get released.

The Big Bertha is 499.. cause it has the features of being to adjust your ball flight pattern... I'll tell you that club is awesome, feels good and moves well through the zone.

My club maker has a Callaway account, where they will sell him heads only, and he customizes.

He says the Big Bertha will be the hottest driver for 2014 ... at least until June ... when heck, they'll probably release another driver... lol.

I think Callaway will have a very big year.I work at a Golf Galaxy and have hit all of the new clubs.The Apex Pros will be in my bag,awsome irons.I hit the Great Big Bertha Alpha and the X 2 Hot drivers last week.Very impressed with both.I hit the Alpha a little further.The core weight in the Alpha is to control spin rate and does so.The X2 Hot irons feel good also,they are cast,but have a nice feel.Callaway is really putting out some great looking and performing equipment.Just keeps getting better with a lot of the new equipment from all the companies and that is good for everyone!

Could you tell a difference between the X 2 Hot and the X 2 Hot pro?

I just ordered the Big Bertha Alpha and the Apex Pro irons. I hit both of these at Golf Galaxy before buying and I was very impressed with both. I really like the look of the BB Alpha. The dark blue on the top is a very good color to look at and it sets up very nice. The Fubuki shaft they put in it is great, but doesn't fit my game so I put a Tour AD-DI 7 in it and cannot wait to hit it. As far as the Apex pro irons, I also love the look of them. They have a great design and I like how Callaway went back to a Ben Hogan type look. These irons feel like cutting butter when you catch it right. I can still work them like a true blade, but they provide the forgiveness of a game improvement iron on mishits. I can see these irons cutting a few strokes off of my game immediately. Overall, I am very impressed with both of these clubs from Callaway and cannot wait to get them on the course!
