Well, they sound like old-school irons. I am not sure how I feel about this at the moment, its to early to tell. I am typically a high baller so I did not have a problem getting these irons into the air, however, I can say that they did not get near the height of my Razr's.

However, I am still carrying my 7 iron 170 yds on a full swing. They do travel about a half club length shorter than my Razr's.

They respond very well to the snap hook or to the high fade. If you have a need to work the ball right to left or left to right you can do so very easily with these irons. these irons are easy to hit and they feel great when you hit the sweet spot.Р вЂќР’В¬ompared to my Razr's I like the feel of these irons much better, my guess is because they are forged. They measured about 1/4 to 1/2 inch shorter than my Razr's, which is not an issue for me. Hogan Edge Forged irons that I got off of ebay.Р вЂќР вЂћfter I got them I cleaned them up (which included me cleaning and sharpening the grooves with a PGA approved sharpener). Well, as I mentioned a few posts earlier I would post back with comments regarding the Won't claim to never have hit a bad shot with the Edge but there have been damned few bad shots that I remember. Picking up these clubs makes me think of Hogan and the heavy sticks he is said to have used and I feel that energy and identification when I hit them. My shafts are Apex 4 which translates to a stiff. The shafts are longer than the older generation of irons I learned on and the lofts stronger, meaning the 9 iron is really more like an 8, which is common among modern irons. When I got my Edge irons used in fairly worn condition they felt like magic.

At address the shaft of the Edge appears to come closer to the face of the club, which is a design characteristic of Hogan clubs going back to the 1950s and said to be preferred by Hogan himself. Both clubs have about the same loft, head size, and standard length. The weight of the clubs, though, is about the same. The TA5 has more offset and Edge irons relatively little. Heads are midsize.Р вЂќР вЂћ quick comparison of 7-irons: Compared to the Cleveland TA5s, the Hogan Edge feels heavier, has a thicker shaft (both TA5 and Edge compared in stiff shaft versions), the hosel comes up about 12mm higher and the sole is much thinner front to back. I find them easy to hit, and they don't hit the ball as high as my Cleveland TA5s that are true cavity backs. I think of them as partially perimeter weighted with a bottom-weight bias. It is said that he hated the irons, presumably because they were not the traditional Hogan Company blades.Р вЂќР’В®dge irons are not precisely cavity back but more like a blade evolving into a cavity back, and there is not much perimeter weighting on the upper part of the clubhead.

At some point too the pin in the hosel that was a distinctive feature of Hogan clubs was discontinued.Р вЂќР вЂћs I recall, Ben Hogan himself was persuaded to hit the new Edge irons for a TV commercial. Later on in the 1990s Hogan clubs were no longer made in Ft. The GS irons are interesting because they had 'Ft.

'Edge' was orginally not in the Apex line, but later on the names were came to merge or overlap. The original Edge irons came out more than 20 years ago and were followed by the 'Edge GS' and later models. Just as a note, there were different models of 'Hogan Edge' irons.
