The first Callaway Golf Apex irons designed with A.I.


By: January 12, 2021


My first experience with Callaway Golf Apex irons was in 2014. It was the Apex Muscleback iron made from 1020 Carbon steel.

The Callaway Golf Apex 2015 irons utilize the Cup 360 and came with quadruple net forging, precision milling, and 1025 mild carbon steel.

Now let’s see what Callaway Golf Apex 2021 irons can offer us!

Callaway Golf put also for the first time, their Tungsten Energy Core into an Apex Iron.

They say with 5x the tungsten of Apex 19, they were able to precisely position the Center of Gravity to promote outstanding launch throughout the set, and more forgiveness on off-center shots.

The body of the iron is 100% forged from a 1025 mild carbon steel body.
