CALLAWAY APEX 21
◆ Forgiveness 3 ◆ 7i loft 30.5° VERDICT Just like its siblings, the Apex is a great-looking forged iron. Unlike some it’s also really good at protecting carry distance, as it gave up just eight yards between on- and offcentre hits (ranking second). Compared to the previous Apex 19, the topline is a little narrower, which potentially makes them more attractive to reasonably solid ball strikers who don’t want to give up 2.5° of 7-iron loft to play the hollow body Apex Pro.
