@downlowkey, if you put this new set in the bag full-time I'd like a crack at those Adams MB2's lol. Congrats on another great testing opportunity!

Looking forward to what everyone has to say!!!

I haven’t hit the UiHi yet obviously, but the 5 or 6 iron with the v-sole is pretty sweet. I’ve also worked on shallowing my delivery which helps a bit too. Sometimes a steep AOA comes from a little bit over the top swing. Is your typical hit a fade?

My miss is a hook; sometimes overcooked, sometimes the dreaded pull hook... so I have several issues earlier in my swing that I've been working on, initially with lessons and now with videos from Monte Scheinblum. I've been able to shallow the AOA with some level of consistency and my hips don't stall out as much as they used to, but since becoming a dad my range time has taken a hit and old habits die hard!

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like a kid waiting for Christmas (arrival of Hogan irons)???

Are we there yet??? (Are the irons here yet???)

😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

I am very excited to try out this combo set. I put together my own combo set, and I am excited to see how a for market combo set performs.....and compares to what I cobbled together. 
 

Is that the UPS TRUCK OUTSIDE?  Lol.

I am very curious to hear your thoughts regarding the two sets.

I’m going into this review with an open mind, but the Icons will have to be pretty special to kick the MB2s out of the bag.

The Hogans look absolutely stunning and I’m very curious to see the affect V-SOLE has on trajectory control and turf interaction.

Same here.  The Maltby TS1 set I built is easily one of the top performing sets I have ever owned.  What I can say is that I played the Ft. Worth's with HI irons for two seasons as a 21-24-27 in the HI irons and 31-47 in the blades.  The biggest issue I had with the blades was the sole was narrower than the width of a sheet of paper.  On the days where I was not playing well, I could not fake it.  

While the combo set is only 8-P in the Icon, I still hope that the sole has been addressed and widened slightly to offer some lower CG as well as better turf interaction.  These are being marketed to a better player who can still shoot in the 80's so I would imagine (HOPE) that the 8-P would be slightly wider.  

As far as the UiHi goes, If they improved on the Ft Worth HI iron, this will be the best long iron in the game.  The HI irons were the best long irons I have ever swung, period.  I am really excited to put these irons to the test and see how they fare.  I will be comparing these to a set of Player's Distance irons so I hope that those who are on the fence will see how they compare and contrast.

Haha Rev, yes. I think our games are pretty close, and I was playing the mizzy mp5’s/mp25 combo,  but my break started at the 5. The Hogan’s start at the 7 As you know, so really at the dart throwing range. The visual was stark between them, and I never really liked that. Being well versed now on the v-sole will also be a large topic for me. I’m also moving from steel back to graphite, as my arthritis is returning, old age is cruel to the golfer...


I have V soles in my wedges so that’s a non-factor for me - it’s that 7-8 gap that I’m most interested in. I can always tweak lofts at the top end on my own.

Yes, the gap at the blade to modern clubs.. I am also wondering how that will be. But, my PtxPro’s weren’t exactly longer than the old mizzy blades, so hopefully it’s seamless. But, we shall soon find out! But I’ll bet that they have that addressed prior to selling them as a “combo set” from the factory, right?

That's awesome!  I love the way you blended/split screen the Hogan footage along with the new irons.  

I just got my set of ICON irons and Equalizer wedges today.  Can't wait to get out this weekend for a spin around the links.

I’m hitting my current irons really well right now also. They have Steelfiber FC115 shafts and they seem to be the perfect shaft to transition to from 120g steel shafts as it’s my first time playing graphite shafts. I’m really unsure how the Recoil 86g graphite shafts are going to work out but that was the only graphite option.

We shall see. Gonna be tough to knock the current gamers out of the bag though.

I would have preferred a suitable graphite option for my achey elbows but I know the available Recoils are wayyy too light and not a great profile for me.

My Adams MB2s are laced up with the mythical Matrix Program 130 6.5 - easily the smoothest loading shaft I have ever felt, stupid low torque numbers and mid/high launch.

After considerable deliberation, I ordered my Icons strapped to KBS Tour V steel. I went back and forth between Stiff and X-Stiff, but I’m not getting any younger and the KBS will probably launch a bit lower than my Matrix telephone poles.

The Stiff version of the KBS Tour V weigh in ~15 grams less than my Matrix setup. So I’m hopeful the marginally lighter weight will offer an extended window for me to effectively game them, without feeling like I’m swinging an alignment stick. Phil Mickelson also had a hand in designing the Tour V line and he has arthritic issues, so maybe they won’t beat up my old joints too bad?

It’s certainly going to be an interesting review and possibly a little painful. Fingers crossed it is turns out to be a “hurt so good” situation.

Yeah, the left elbow, forearm pain has really been minimized with the Steelfiber shafts. I think the KBS steel shafts would have been a better fit performance wise but after playing these Steelfibers I don’t think I want to go back to a steel shaft.

I figured since this is a review perhaps my experience going from stiff flex ~120g steel shafts to a lightweight graphite, whether positive or negative, will perhaps help another Spy that is making their first foray into graphite shafts after 30+ years of playing steel.

I'm interested in the shaft option, I play rifle 7.0 in my ap2s and I'm interested to see the stiffness in the kbs v-x stiff? Anyone know if they are comparable?

Somehow I missed this. 
 

The PX as it is has a far more stout profile than the V-X. Now factor in that it’s a 7.0 and you may find it a difficult transition. What I can say is that they’ll be different. 
 

I went with the Tour V as well but I am contemplating yanking then and putting in Modus 120’s in the set. I’ll have to give it a full ride with the factory setup but if they are as good as they should be, elective surgery may be sooner than later.

So it sounds like some of you guys have placed your order already?  Did you talk to anyone for a fitting, go to a fitting, or go off your own ideas?  

Any idea when you'll get them in if you have ordered so you can post pictures and make us all drool?

Looking forward to seeing if you guys have what it takes to play those beautiful blades!

Caught up on this thread and this is going to be a good one. They are gorgeous.

Will love to hear your feedback on the v-soles. My PTMs have similar soles and I absolutely love them.

Orders are in and in process. Personally, I used my current specs and built them off of what I’m familiar with. I’m a vanilla TourV with a stiff at +1/2 and std lie. Hopefully within the next two weeks depending on how they come together.

I can’t either.  I’m guessing the PTx Pro will be the most fair comparison. 
 

Up until this year, I played Ft Worth’s for two years and while the good shots were AOK, they were just outside the limit for my skill. I’m hoping the Icon has a wider sole than the predecessor.

Didn’t get a new fitting for these. I went with my current iron specs and since there was only one graphite shaft option it wasn’t too difficult of a choice.

I literally just began playing graphite shafts in my irons in the last month. I switched to non-tapered jumbo arthritic grips last year for my wrist pain and they have really helped so I had been contemplating graphite shafts for the less shock to the elbow/forearm area as well and finally made the switch.

I’m excited about the Hogan’s for sure as I love a classic forged iron, but it’s going to be tough to knock my current irons out of the bag. I hope the Hogan’s can do it as they are a drop dead sexy set of irons that will look great in the bag with my persimmon woods. But they can’t be just a pretty face, they gotta perform too.

So it sounds like some of you guys have placed your order already?  Did you talk to anyone for a fitting, go to a fitting, or go off your own ideas?  

Any idea when you'll get them in if you have ordered so you can post pictures and make us all drool?

Looking forward to seeing if you guys have what it takes to play those beautiful blades!

Yeah order has been placed, I also went off my current playing specs. I never have been fit in the past, but I'm pretty good at adapting to the clubs I choose to buy second hand.  I did go a degree flat because my tendancy is too dig the heel in the ground and miss left when I do.  Trial and error on all my club situations.  I also live at least 2 hours from any place that would do a fitting ☹

I’m neither a social media maven nor a video editor, but I’m trying to grind them both out of the dirt. Because it’s what MyGolfSpy and Mr. Hogan deserve.

ICON Black review coming soon...

Wise move, if your tendency is to pull it left it is often an indicator that you need a flatter lie.
