So so good looking. Such a great look and blend of classic and modern... But that's just my opinion.

It was between the Apex and 921 Tours when I got my current irons. These might get me back in the market for a new set. Nice look.

I like that they have followed the trend of putting out a line that can be blended seamlessly from an aesthetic standpoint. Really good looking clubs.

In general I think companies have done a much better job with their irons and aesthetics. 

There is another new set coming sometime (somewhere on IG I saw leaks) however which I can't say I'm a fan of which was a big surprise given the brand.

If I had not just bought the Mizuno 223's, these would have definitely been on the to try list.

I wish I were good enough to play these. Great visuals, looking forward to seeing some video reviews on them. I wonder how the Pro and CB models sound with the microsphere design.

I have to admit they do look good, but like all clubs, get fitted. 
It amazes me when I play with several groups I know how many purchase off the rack and still don’t get fitted but expect there new clubs to change how the game plays for them.

My jaw dropped when I saw these for the first time yesterday. They look absolutely stunning. I'm still playing my Mizuno JPX 800 Pro's, but with all these releases, I need to go get fitted for new sticks. I'd love to hit these, Srixon, and Mizuno.

These look much more cohesive than the prior lineup. Curious to see how the new pros feel. In my fitting at the time I had great numbers with them, but I couldn't get along with the feel, and they didn't have a blendable lineup the way my eventual P7 series did.

When I got fit for my new irons this year it was a dead heat between the 770 and the Apex Pro 21. Part of my decision to go with the 770 was that we suspected Callaway would bring the Apex Pro 23, although it wasn’t confirmed at the time.

The 770’s are great and they suit my swing perfectly, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say I started calculating the trade in value when I saw these 😉

 

(I swear not going to be that person…probably…maybe….)

NEVER. EVER. AGAIN.

I bought the 19s when they came out. Had great numbers at the fitting, and I played well with them, until, six months in... they just started falling apart. 

Specifically, the besel around where the hosel meets the shaft came unglued on my 8 iron, and eventually, ALL of my irons (3-PW). A "cosmetic" defect they told me at the local PGA tour superstore, but besides the new annoying "click" sound during my backswing, the feel of the club, during the swing and at contact, was thrown off, too. Also, my playing partners looked at me like I was using hobo clubs.

I don't know if it was something in the fitting process, (I had the lie angle adjusted on all my irons), or if it was poor craftsmanship, but I never had that problem with my titlests. And I never will again, at least, not with a callaway set.

There doesn't seem to be a replacement for the regular Apex 21; all three of these models look to be targeting the low single digit ball strikers.  Am I missing something?

There will be a standard and DCB model. They are coming later.

The more I look at these the more I like them. Definitely going to test them out at some point soon. If they can get the 2021 X-forged CB feel into the tighter packaged Apex pros (at least the 6i and up that are all 1025 carbon), they will have hit a grand slam IMO.
