Need Info - 1980 Hogan Directors

[The Tin Man]

An online search doesn't come up with much information. I just dug up a set and I'm wondering what the lies and lofts should be?  I take it they are forged?

Any information is appreciated!

Thank You

I have some.  They don't get a lot of respect from the Hogan aficionados but they appear well made and do what they're told.  They are forged.  Here are the specs:

IRON LENGTH LOFT LIE

2, 39.25, 19.5, 57

3, 38.75, 23, 58

4, 38.25, 26.5, 59

5, 37.75, 30, 60

6, 37.25, 33.5, 61

7, 36.75, 37, 62

8, 36.25, 41, 62.5

9, 35.75, 45, 63

Eq, 35.50, 50, 64.5

Thank you for the spec's. I was afraid they were lost to time.

I figured the collectors were not interested in them, if for no other reason then the name. I bought them in excellent condition for what new grips are going to cost.

All I care about is that they do what I tell them too. Sometimes I want to play with equipment that offers no mercy to see where I'm really at. Even with rock hard original grips they feel good.

Once again thank you for looking up the spec's.

I've been collecting Hogan irons for last six months and been doing some research as I see different irons come available.  Hogan actually put out two sets of Directors, the first set was released in 1974, and then in 1980 they released a new set using the Director name.  Here are the pics so you can determine which set you own;

As you can see they look pretty different, so the lofts may also be different.

I have the 1980's.  Do you know of any websites or books on the subject of Hogan Clubs?

Said it right in the thread title, sorry.

The 1974's were $50 for the set, so I ended up going back and buying these also.
