What Is the Best Players CB of All Time?

If we use low scores as a criteria , Titleist 962 used to shoot a 59 by David Duval.

Clubs that are still conforming and being played[ I realize not by pro's] 962's .

 

He was playing 990 by then, which were also great clubs in their own right.

I stand corrected, I always thought it was the 962's, I really like the 990's also.

Freddy Couples played his best golf with TM 300 forged CBs.

 

 

 

Fred's best golf was '91-'92

 

Lynx Parallax

 

Ah, the old Parallax. I played with them, or tried to, for about 2 months when Freddy played them. Hook machines for me. Soooo much toe weight. Did nothing but hook. Was actually Bizarre.

 

Today I can tell you with all honesty that in my 35 years of playing experience, my Hogan PTx are the best irons I’ve ever played. They are waaaaay under appreciated on this site.

 

They are incredible. Look great, feel great, very durable finish for a forged club. You can flight them. You can work them both ways. Great price as well now that they are factory direct. I just wish they had more shaft options because people always complain about that. Strangely enough, even though I’d never played them before, they perform perfectly for me with Tour V 120x’s. They are priced at a point where people should just buy them and reshaft if they’re sure they want something else, but the Tour V does work in them.

 

In the last 2 1/2 years I’ve owned:

 

Ping anser 2013 forged

714 Ap2

S55

Apex CF16

Cally Apex

PXG 0311T

 

None had a chance to kick the Hogans out of the bag. PXG put up a good fight, but it’s not a better club.

Duval used 962b 4-pw irons with DCI-B to replace 2,3 irons when he shot his 59.

1999-2000 Hogan Apex Plus.

 

I have since changed my mind. Pings S series has as good of feel as my Hogan's and is tons more forgiving. The Apex's are softer but the S56's are just plain solid and wonderful.

 

Ping G430 Max 10.5

Ping G430 5&7 Wood

Ping G430 19°,22° Hybrids

PXG Gen 6 XP's 7-SW

Ping Glide 58ES Wedge

Ping PLD DS72 

If a person gets mad at you for telling the truth, they're living a lie.

Completely subjective, but 20 years of various players CB irons, these have been my favorites. Paired with Nippon SPB....

Cobra Carbon CBs are worth mentioning as well.

Personally, I think Wilson Staff FG V2s.

I was just going to say those.  I loved everything about the OG X Forged.  They were SO SOFT, and I loved the shape.

I don't love them to the eye but damn do they feel nice to hit.
