    Yesterday I bought a 2nd had set (3-E) of Apex Channel irons, took three to the course  this morning. Nice, but will take getting used to after my Wilson graphites.

    My preference would be a set of Apex 98 blades, but hard to get this side of the pond.

    How they were made:  https://www.mygolfspy.com/1999-hogan-apex-blades/

    With the C455 fairway woods and the Big Ben C-S3 driver would make a very nice set of vintage (and usable) clubs.

    This is just a friendly reminder to you , that this is only a game . The name on the clubs as well as the pictures of the club really mean nothing at all / You cant touch them or do anything else with either . This is all make believe so please dont get too attached to the items in this game .

    Thanks for that lonnie,  it never dawned on me that this was just a game.

    And this post is just golf speak....

    WGT teased that Hogan clubs might be coming several months ago, but nothing has been heard since.

    Maybe they can make a deal to put med-high trajectory, 3.5 dots of spin and a 4.0 dot meter on a Louisville Slugger baseball bat.  :)

    MAYBE they can get us a free trip around the Ben Hogan factory as a tournament prize, then we can count the dots ourselves.

    The third or fourth set on the top row was my irons in the late 1960's and early 1970's
