Just had a question about these clubs. I am currently hitting Cobra SSI irons. I love the clubs and hit them pretty good. There is a set of the callaway x14 pro series in the pro shop at my home course. They are used but in great shape. My question is do you think i would be able to hit them with being use to a cobra?

Have you taken them out yet? If they are demos not only can you play with them to see if you like them but you will probably get a great deal on them...see if you can take them out or at least go to the range with them.

The X-14 Pro Series is a great set of irons. A lot of people think the X-14s are the best of the Callaway X-series irons, and the tour players who used the Pro Series version were very slow to change (I think Annika never did switch to the X-16s, keeping her X-14PS in the bag until the X-Tours/X-18s came out).

I've played all the Callaway X irons from the first (X-9 were the original Big Bertha irons, X-10 the redesigned Big Berthas in 1996, then the X code names went public with the X-12s in 1998). I think it's a toss-up between the X-12 and X-14 irons as to which is better (X-12: more forgiving, longer; X-14: more solid-feeling, better looking). The X-14PS is great. Easy to hit, but lower offset so you can work the ball a bit easier. A real "players" cavity back. If you are a decent iron player, you can handle these.

in the bag today:
Driver: TaylorMade R9 10.5° (Fujikura Motore 65 stiff)

I've heard a lot of positive feedabck with the X14 pro series that they're one of the best irons Callaway has ever came out with. You should be able to hit those clubs, and if you're not satisfied with them, the resale value for those should still be good. Cheers!!

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the Callaway Steelhead X-14 irons with the blue logo and the set with the black logo? Thank you

The X-14 Pro Series Irons feature Less-Offset than the standard X-14 Irons.

I just bought a new set of Calloway X Series N415 irons and I love them. I've only played two rounds with them but my shots are definetly straighter and at least 10 yards farther. Does anybody happen to know what model year these clubs are?

Generally, the N designation for Callaway means it's a rebranded old model sold at discount prices. Sort of how Apple took the iPhone 5's guts and put it in the plastic iPhone 5c. Some of the cosmetic touches might not be as nice (my X-24 doesn't have the beveling of the proper model X-24 Hot around the rear cavity) Quick googling makes me say this looks like a rebranded X-Hot iron set. That was the 2013 model. Should perform admirably though. Lofts may be less strong than the model they're inspired by, which can be a good thing. Check their site and compare.

Thanks buddy. So far they have performed great. I need to hit the range to try to dial in the longer distances though. :-)

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
