I used to play Apex plus irons and after reading : How to build a classic golfswing by Ernie Els I decided to buy an Apex Edge 2 iron. Since then my scores have gone down. I hit more fairways and because of that more g.i.r and because of that...etc.

 

I use it primairly of the tee, I can't realy hit it spot on of the deck because in comparison to my 690's it has kind of a blunt head, but of the tee it's marvelous! I hit it about 235 yards and when it's not on the fairway it's just beside it (rarely been searching my balls in the woods eversince) and that leaves me with long shots into the greens but I rather hit 2 iron-6 iron then take my change with the driver (280 yards)- wedge combination.

Used to play a Callaway X-12 2 iron but replaced it with a hybrid this year. Find them much easier to hit consistantly. I could really nail the two iron and it was great from the tee and when I needed a boring shot but I could hit some really poor shots to and so it got ditched.

I use a 2 iron S59 and will use a 2 iron when i get my 680's i hit the ball so high it doesnt fly like a 2 iron though, really penetrating ballflight thats not balloony just high so i like a 2iron bc these hybrids shoot up on me. The only way ill go to one of those is either the bridgestone air muscle or the 503i at least those looks somewhat like a normal iron to me.

I switch between a 04 RAC T stamp mb 2 iron and a rescue tp 19 (i am tryin to get the new dual tp rescue to behave, but it wont). I like the two iron for windy days and on certain courses where we play because there are some shots that it is useful for. Overall the hybrid is breat though because it is a lot easier out of thick rough, plus i chip with it.
