What works best for your long game?  Do you prefer to go for the gusto with fairway woods, or perhaps seek the control of a driving iron, maybe the forgiveness provided by hybrids?  Well the Ben Hogan Golf Company has options available in all three categories.

This may very well be the largest forum test ever conducted on the internet.  Can you say MEGA TESTING?

We’re going to give 15 of you a chance to test one of these in the category you choose, no that’s not a misprint.  Fifteen forum members will get a chance to test a GS3 Fairway wood, UHI driving iron or a VKTR+ hybrid.  

Here are the clubs available for testing.  These are the lofts/shaft flex and models to choose from, no alterations or substitutions are allowed.  If the club doesn't fit you, please don't apply.

Hybrids – VKTR+

18* - Recoil ES 75 F3 Regular 

18* - Recoil ES 85 F4 Stiff 

18* - Recoil ES 95 F5 X-Stiff 

 

Driving Iron - UiHi

18* -  KBS Tour 90 Regular 

18* -  KBS Tour V Stiff

Man you guys are getting hot with some great forum testing opportunities. I really enjoyed the BH GS53 and would gladly test this out but I fear the weather is starting to turn and well i fear there is not enough time for me to get a thorough test. 

Good Luck testers and look forward to seeing this.
