They still boast a larger body and plenty of forgiveness but provide consistent gapping throughout the entire bag, potentially making it easier to construct your bag of 14 clubs.įor my review set, the Edge EX irons paired up with the KBS Tour 90 shafts. Now for the guy who screams up and down that too many companies are loft jacking to gain that distance advantage, these irons might be an appealing option. Understanding that loft is only part of the distance equation, perhaps it does help explain that I experienced shorter carry yardages than my current irons. Meaning that the seven iron in this set comes in at 32°, which is a weaker lofted club than other sets in this game-improvement category. While stronger than the other models in their catalog, their loft structure still comprises of consistent 4° gaps, starting at 20° and ending at 44°.
Ben Hogan Golf is not going in that direction with the Edge EX irons. When we think of the latest crop of “game improvement” irons, we think of companies going out there and claiming improvements in forgiveness and increases in ball speed and distance.
