GOLF
Let me start off by saying that I am not a gear head. In fact, up until two weeks ago, I was probably the exact opposite.
When it came to golf equipment, I lived by the old adage, “a poor craftsman blames his tools.” Always believing that if I wasn’t hitting it well, it was on me and not the clubs.
Turns out, I was wrong.
For the last decade I used the same set of irons that I was fit for back in college. And for a long time, they did the job — or so I thought. That is until I got my hands on a brand-new set of Callaway Apex Ti Fusion irons.
The moment I opened the box and excitedly peeled off the plastic, I was giddy about these clubs. It was that Christmas-morning kind of excitement that you just can’t fake.
At first glance, I loved the sleek black design. It made me feel like I was holding a weapon. I couldn’t get to a simulator fast enough.
And with one swing, they had completely shattered my very stubborn, long-standing mindset about golf equipment.
The titanium face and forged hollow-body construction gave me effortless power on every shot. It felt like the ball was exploding off the face. Within a few minutes of hitting these irons, I was carrying the ball 10 to 15 yards longer and creating more ball speed than I ever had with my old set.
I also noticed that my shot dispersion was tighter. If the occasional off-center strike snuck in, it still looked and felt good. While these clubs are forgiving, I love that they’re still pretty workable. I’m able to shape shots with ease, controlling both the trajectory and direction of my ball flight.
Although, an iron isn’t truly tested until you’ve hit it from a few tough lies. So, after hitting these from some sketchy spots, I can officially say I am impressed.
They cut through thick, juicy rough like a hot knife through butter. Fairway bunkers were a breeze, and I was even able to hit my ball out of a divot with no problem while wielding these on the course.
With these irons in the bag, I have more confidence in my game than before—and for the first time in a long time, I’m actually excited to practice.
