Great feeling irons out of the center of the face. Got fit for these with the Axiom 100s shafts swinging 7i at 89mph and they are great combo. Feel is great, forgiveness is excellent, especially on thin shots. Thin shots used to soar over the green where now the flight is lower but result is still on green or in some cases pin high. Turf interaction is great for my steep swing (-4) throwing nice shallow divots. I can notice an immediate difference on how quickly they exit the turf where as my other irons would dig deep divots. A great iron all around, accuracy with these are insane. I did notice a lower more penetrating flight compared to my apex 21’s which is nice. What stood out most to me was distance dispersion front to back. These are dialed for front to back dispersion which is great, noticed immediate improvement in accuracy which is what we are all after in an iron set. Only complaint is they say they are mid compact but they do have a little chunk to them in 4 and 5i. Nothing crazy but I think a thinner top line in those clubs would make these 100/100 for me. 8 hcp KY

Received incentive

X Forged Max

Amazing clubs, easy to hit, with exceptional feel. If you’re on the fence about getting the x forged max, don’t be. You’ll be truly happy about with your decision.

Awesome Feeling, Workability And Forgiving

I have played five rounds with them. I was playing T-150's. I ordered these with the same shafts and grips as my T-150's. I had to have the lie angle raised 1 degree after a couple of rounds because I couldn't stay off the toe. This showed me how forgiving these irons are. After the lie adjustment, all specs Loft, Lie, Shafts, Grips are the same as my previous irons. I hit these so much higher and about a half a club farther than my previous irons. I really do not understand why, but I love it. I can also work these so much better. I am an 11-handicap, with approach play being my biggest weakness. I am looking forward to what happens over the next few months.

Amazing Feel And Confidence Inspiring Looks

I have been playing Callaway irons for years. I have played Apex 14, 16, 19, 21 and the 200 AI, none of them compare with this set for looks, feel and playability. I carry between a 3-5 handicap and have played Pro to standard model irons over the last few years. As I have gotten older I switched to the Steelfiber shafts for weight and vibration dampening. My set custom set came inside a week with Steelfiber i95 CW shafts and my customer bends. First range session, and 9 holes, delivered exactly what I was expecting with the same distance as the 200 ai's but far better feel and actually better results on off center strikes. I highly recommend these for anyone in the market for a new set or irons.

Exceptional Feel For A Players Club.

Exceptional feel for a players club. The forged/milled head is a work of art. Minimal offset allows you to work and flight the ball. The sound reminds me of the original x forged I played 10+ years ago.

Have No Fear High Handicappers!

Read Harvey Penick’s book and buy/trade up to these irons. I did -with some reservations- but love the feel of a solid strike from a solid club. Knowing that forgiveness isn’t inherent with these irons has made me a better golfer; Concentration, pre-shot routine, and taking dead aim are now requirements…not options. X Forged Max did that. Have no fear-

Best Callaway Iron I Have Played

I have played the Apex, 150’s, 200’s, 300’s, 21’s, 19’s and pros and the Forged X Max is my favorite for feel and playability. 4 handicap, 66 years old.

Great Iron Model

Love everything about the X Forged Max irons. Great feel, sound, look/shape, sole, etc.! If your a decent ball striker, you should give these a try…very playable and forgiving.

Feels Like Pro

Great Feel , great distance & accuracy . never say sorry.

Beautiful Irons

Great set of irons ! good launch angle , nice soft feel .

Forged Max

Great clubs. Post 2 straight rounds under 95. Good enough clubs for a mid-high handicapper

Best Iron I've Ever Hit!

The feel is the best. Easy to hit. Great turf interaction. The best feeling and sounding irons I've ever hit.

Look Great, Feel Great, Are Great

These irons look and feel fantastic and are super easy to hit. At address, they look way more compact than you'd think based on the size of the cavity. If the regular X forged irons scare you a bit, these are a great alternative if you really want that forged look and feel.

Phenomenal Feel

Been playing for almost 15 years and have not had a iron that checks all the boxes. This is perfect for someone who wants to transition from hollow body irons. Usually, 100% 1020 carbon steel is just for blades until now. You get great forgiveness from a mid handicap standpoint, but when you flush it, it feels unreal. The turf interaction is also fantastic from the sole design on this club. This will be in my bag for years to come.
