I'm not good enough to use them and they probably won't be fully available in the UK, but I thought you American low handicappers may like this review. If the link doesn't work, just google Rick Shiels Ben Hogan on utube... They look great!!!

Yup - only about $4,200 to order a "complete" set of 28 irons (add $560 for graphite).

But then I'm old enough to remember when woods were made from persimmon, and I knew a couple of people who had 2 1/2 woods; so I'm thinking I will wait until they come out in 0.5º increments. You know when the shot is right inbetween a 26º and a 27º iron

Given that I only carry 14 clubs at a time, I think I can get by with a bit less than that! ;-)

In fact, by ordering individual irons, keeping my hybrids and wedges that I currently have/love, I'd only need to spend $840 to replace my irons.  Not bad at all when compared to standard set pricing....

I hit these today at my local golf shop range. Told the guy I would be placing an order in February just solely on hitting them about 20 times. They weren't even to my specs, but they felt great and loved the way they felt coming through the ball. I'm a Titleist fanboy, but these Hogans are really sweet.

    • Starting over - missed posting yesterday and it had been less than 28 days since last off day….today was tempo drill day.  Worked on takeaway and moving smoothly into weight shift.  
    • I know it is probably dependent on a lot of factors, but how windy does it have to be out before you need to start guessing on how much it would influence the break of your putt?  When I played at Bandon, it was like 25-30 mph winds. The caddies talked about the wind negating break. The only time I had it visually influence my putt was on hole 18 at Bandon Dunes. My missed my putt on the high side of a pretty severe breaking putt. The slope around the hole was in the 2-3 degree range. As the ball was about to come to a stop, the wind gusted and pushed the ball half a rotation into the cup.  The rest of the week I thought it had no influence at all. I was thinking, is it just over thinking to try to account for the wind?   
    • Day 310 - 2025-08-06 Went downtown in the late afternoon and got nearly two hours of work in. Not a ton of breaks. Was blasting the TS at the end, from a HomePod and two TVs. 😄 
    • I watched this video of his last night: I don't hate him like @boogielicious apparently does and thought this was a pretty good premise so I gave it a shot.  Not the worst thing in the world and I especially liked the premise.  He's got a lot of air to fill by himself, which he isn't great at, but in doing so, you get some decent insight into how his brain works while setting up shots/putts.
    • So driver is longer than all the other clubs and gear effect plays a bigger part with driver than anything else. If you're hitting it out of the heel it could slice even if you have the face square. Could try some foot spray or impact tape and check that. Other thing is if the shaft is different in how it flexes or how flexible it is it could be affecting your swing somewhat. Driver also has the straightest face, so while with a 4 iron it might fade, with driver that can wind up being a slice with the same face angle at impact.
