I still have my Hogan Apex Edge forged irons 2-SW that are still in excellent condition. I'm not getting rid of them for 2 reasons. First is I still like them and could go back to them in a heartbeat and secondly I wouldn't get hardly anything for them. Plus I'm not sure the new irons are more forgiving then my hogans. The new irons are just stronger lofted but I don't think my Wilson D9's are any more forgiving.

my heavy putter from the early 2000's which I will never replace. The rest of my bag was all purchased in 2024.

I actually picked up all 4 of the wedges over the past couple of years. They have a gap, sw, lw and chipper. The one that has made it into my bag permanently is the chipper which is 42* and the length of a putter. I have learned to use it up to 130 yards now with a smooth swing. My brother calls it a binky lol. I took out my gap wedge and only use my SW out of the rough from 75-100 yards or around the green to chip or bunkers. I pretty much can got on the green with my chipper 8/10 times and with the sole if I hit it a bit "fat" it still a good shot, in fact its better to hit it a bit fat. The problem I had with the SW and GW was hitting it fat and costing me strokes. I don't have that problem anymore with the chipper. And for me the shorter the club the better I hit my shots. Its why I also hit my hybrids better than my woods off the deck. Anyone else play game improvement wedges? My 54 and 60 are Callaway MacDaddy CB's. I figured if I'm playing game improvement cavity back irons why not have the same forgiveness in my wedges.

I think they are a great 3 piece ball for the money and the best value. Golf balls in general are subjective with each players strengths, weaknesses, swingspeed , angle of attack and many other variables. My brother loses distance and prefers the prov1 and I do not notice any loss of distance and they are just as good around the greens for me as the prov1's.

If I'm not going to use my round for GHIN purposes I will play 15 clubs but if I'm going to use my round for handicap then I will use 14 clubs.
