I am enjoying my 18's morw than the 13's.

 

Do you feel the new ones are more forgiving?

 

Yes, but as always you need to put a decent swing on any club. Seems to me that

The sole of the club as well as the length are smaller than the 13's. Every swing seems to

Get through the shot with little effort. Some of this I am crediting to the shaft, that is really

The biggest difference spec wise between the two. The PXI in the 13's do compliment the club,

But there is a distinct difference with the Nippons.

Would also add to the above, that for me, this updated X Forged18 checks all the boxes,

It is a no nonsense iron. Great feel, point and shoot accuracy,with an easy to work ball flight

There are differences between the 13's and the 18's, but they are subtle with the 18's having an edge

Performance wise. But as with anything else YMMV. Note, I still have the 13's in the southern bag, and use

Them in the winter months.

Has anyone added the X Forged utility irons to the top of the bag? Like 3,4 or 5? I didnt get a 5 iron in my set because I've been hitting the 5 in my other irons pretty inconsistent but the 5 hybrid experiment hasnt been much better. Might try the X Forged UDI 5 and am curious if anyone else has them in the bag with these irons.

I have the utility 3 iron (21*). I love it. Easy to hit and fits the set nicely.

 

I’m still enjoying my x forged irons. I can’t see any reason to buy anything else right now and we know what a club ho I am.....

Thanks! I ordered the 5 utility and went with the same LZ shaft. See you got the same shaft too as your x forged too.

i have been using a apex/apex pro combo for the past few years and like everybody else (or most members), I was initially drawn bc it just looked so beautiful!

I didn’t think I had the game for it (low to mid 80’s player but my iron game is probably my weakest part of my game) but I thought I’d hit a few balls for $h!ts and giggles bc I’m a hoe...

 

I had a great hitting day at Roger Dunn and it felt SO soft I couldn’t believe it! (Reminded me of Titleist 690 MB blades I used to play back in my days but not quite as soft.) The next few times I was at Roger Dunn, I was just having really good days I guess so I ended up getting fit for it.

I was still unsure if I had the game for it but decided to order 7, 8, 9, & PW with Modus shafts.

 

10+ rounds later, I’ve come to figure out that X Forged is equally forgiving as apex pro but just with better feel!

I haven’t lost a beat replacing apex pro with X Forged but definitely benefitted from better feel.

 

I absolutely love these irons and I plan on having these for a very long time.

 

I actuallygot fitted for Mizuno JPX900 Tour irons. While these were as soft as X Forged, these were nowhere near as forgiving as X Forged.
