Anyone tried out the Callaway Apex 2019 Irons? I went to golf galaxy and tried them today. They hit like CRISP. For other golfers that tried these out, did y'all get the same effect?

I was fit at Club Champion for the Apex irons back in January and couldn't be happier with their performance. If the Apex fit your swing / game I highly recommend them.

These clubs are absolutely incredible. I agree with the previous poster, if they fit your swing, I can't recommend them highly enough.  For whatever it's worth, I started a thread about a month ago wondering whether avg score was a good determining factor when buying clubs, because I went to a Callaway fitting just out of curiosity and was fit for the Apex's.  I'm 34 and have played sporadically my whole life with nothing but hand me down clubs and basically I was afraid I wasn't "good enough" to be playing with anything but SGIs.  I've never hit anything that has the feel of the Apex's. Call them crisp if you want. I agree. I'd also add explosive and luscious. After I was fit for them (my first fitting ever) I went and hit Titleist AP1s, AP2s, AP3s, Taylormade M5s, M6s, and p790s, Ping i210s, Mizuno 919 Hot Metals and forged...   and after all of that, nothing felt as crisp as the Apex's.

I went to a Callaway demo a week back and tried the CF19.  I have been playing the CF16's for 3 yrs and absolutely love them. I noticed they hit longer than mine by about 15-20yds (7i).  Could be an expensive demo. Also hit 3w longer, driver longer, hybrid longer. My only issue is it could be 20yds further in the woods with the driver, lol

    • Day 14, April 22.  This morning, before going to work, I took the time to hit two dozen balls (indoors, off the mat, into the net), all with a 6-iron.  As before, this was focused on the pelvis separation and the length of the backswing -- yesterday's video view was encouraging that I'm making progress.  
    • Hey folks, Here's be a better video that outlines some of my challenges.  Any suggestiosn welcome.    
    • I enjoyed the distance wedges episode. It's something that I've not really taken the time to figure out for sure, but I went to a local trackman place over the winter and tested my four wedges (PW, AW, 54, 58) and got four yardages with each one. I am using Dan Grieve's method - you have a 1, 2, 3, and "full". The number references the number of clubhead widths between your heels.  I never really got to grips with the clock method - I'd find my 9:00 one day would go 40 yards and the next day 60 yards purely based on how fast I happened to swing it, but I couldn't turn that off and I was basically at sea with the speed method (Wesley Bryan does this - he takes almost a full swing for a 15 yard chip). The Grieve method I set my stance width and that really limits how much my swing moves back and forth and the speed seems to be naturally more consistent.  Anyway, I wound up with four yardages for each club - PW 48, 80, 112, 127; AW 41, 73, 101, 112; 54 36, 57, 91, 98; 58 28, 47, 81, 86 So, in order, I have 28, 36, 41, 47, 48, 57, 73, 80, 81, 86, 91, 98, 101, 112, 112, 127 which gives me a pretty good set of numbers. I do have a big gap from 57 to 73, but I can do a 2.5 58, which is giving me about 64. Then as they noted you can give it a bit more, or grip down on a club too to adjust a little bit. It's really useful and very freeing to just know what to do. When you have a 54 yard pitch, rather than pulling my 58 and thinking how hard is 54, I can just take my 54, do a "2" swing and just grip down a little and I'm in decent shape.  Incidentally, Erik talked a bit about watching Scheffler picking off his yardages to within a yard. I've watched DJ do that too with his wedges. Scottie does it trying to hit it all the way up to like 200 exactly with a 6-iron and he's hitting it 200.5, 199.7, etc. Absolutely mind blowing how good his distance control is. Insane.
