I agree about the pricing, but I do find the suspended tungsten story rather interesting.

Ha! The Star line has a 38° PW.

41* PW? I'm always on team "who cares about strong lofts" but JFC just call it a 9 iron. 
And an AW and a GW? Marketing at it's finest

How do you even gap with a PW at that loft? Start having to carry 6 wedges

Set also includes AW, GW, and SW. You'd likely end up with 5 clubs stamped as wedges.

TxG just tested the Epic Forged and said they're the longest irons they've ever seen. 4i was carrying 270+ for some of them... That's my driver 😭

It's getting a lil crazy. Obviously someone needs to design a new system for stamping.

We gotta stop calling them 4 irons, no matter how “high” they fly, and how “steep” the descent. It’s NOT a 4 iron....

In the Bridgestone JGR HF1 line (SGI) that we had a choice of last fall, they have what they call a PW1 (38*) and PW2 (44*). The set also includes AW, so if you add a SW and LW, you are at 5 "wedges" too.

4-AW:bridgestone-small: Tour B JGR HF2 Modus3 Tour 105
SW: :cleveland-small: RTX Zipcore Black Satin 54*
LW:Sub70: TAIII Black 58*
Putter:ping-small: Scottsdale TR Senita
Bag: BigMax Dri Active Lite
Ball:taylormade-small: TP5x or :titleist-small: AVX (yellow)

That I don't know. I would assume the availability would be the same as other Callaway products.

Will they be available as individual irons or just the whole set? I wouldn't mind getting a quality 4 iron as my apex set is 5-AW.

The new Epic Forged...  2 clubs longer BECAUSE your 9 iron is now the same as your old 7 iron.  

Time to ditch the numbering system and everyone just go with lofts only.  

  • Driver:  Cobra LTDx Max
  • 5 wood, 7 wood:  Cobra Speedzone
  • 5 hybrid: Callaway Forged CB 24*
  • Irons: Sub 70 699 (6), 659MB Raw (7-PW)
  • Wedges: Sub70 286 50*, Edel 55*, 60*
  • Putter:  PXG Bat Attack

Hail Southern and no place else!!

Wow.  Them's some lofts!  The longest iron I could hit in that set would be the "7" iron.  The thing that really bothers me about loft creep is that companies have started using 5 or even 6 degree gaps in the short irons in an effort to cover all distances.  And this is from a guy who bags strong lofted irons.

14 of the following:

Ping G430 Max 10.5 degree

Callaway 2023 Big Bertha 3 wood set to 17 degrees

Cobra F9 Speedback 7/8 wood set at 23.5 degrees

Callaway Epic Max 11 wood

Ping Eye 2 BeCu 2-SW

Mizuno 923 JPX HM HL 6-GW

Hogan sand wedge 56 degree bent to 53

Maltby M Series+ 54 degree

Ping Glide 3.0 Eye2 58 degree

Ping Glide 3.0 60 degree

Evnroll ER2

Ping Sigma 2 Anser

Cheap Top Flite mallet putter from Dick's, currently holding down first place in the bag

TaylorMade Mini Spider

Bridgestone XS
