There have been major championships and changes in ownership, along with comebacks, setbacks, mothballing, bankrolling, shutdowns and other showdowns.Love it or hate it, it’s the brand that simply refuses to die.The very first Hogan Edge iron was introduced in the late 80’s and became one of the most successful game-improvement irons in history. It was the first Hogan iron to feature perimeter weighting for extra forgiveness, along with the classic Hogan forged feel.As a former owner of the Hogan brand, Callaway still has rights to Hogan’s other iconic name – Apex. White says that even thought Callaway did come out with irons named Edge a few years ago (and still sells them in a boxed-set to Costco), Hogan’s lawyers have done their homework on the Edge name.“Nobody owns the name ‘Edge’ outright. It’s too generic. Our trademark is for ‘Ben Hogan Edge,'”BEN HOGAN 2006 FORGED APEX EDGE Pro 3-9, E & SI Wedges Forged IRON SET - 2001Spalding Holdings Corp. is adding yet another model to the Ben Hogan line with the new Apex Edge Pro, which is due to begin shipping in February.According to a company release, the Apex Edge Pro is designed to complement the current Apex Edge model by “offering game improvement benefits with a traditional look.” The new club, which is made of forged 1030 carbon steel, has an enhanced, perimeter-weighted head that creates a large, effective hitting area as well as a thinner top line designed to provide a cleaner look at address, much like the Apex Plus iron, which it is expected eventually to replace.Other features include a cambered sole that reduces turf drag and a progressive muscle-back cavity. The idea, company officials said, is to give golfers the feel of forged as well as the forgiveness of a game-improvement club.The Apex Edge Pro will carry a suggested retail price of $925 for steel shafts, 3-iron through Equalizer (Hogan’s term for PW), and $1,125 for graphite. The line will be promoted heavily at the grass-roots level with a long-running demo day program beginning in mid-February, as well as a new television and print advertising campaign that will break in January.The name Ben Hogan has been synonymous with uncompromising golf equipment since Mr. Hogan first put his name on a set of golf clubs in 1953. Since then, every model, every set, and every club has been held to the same rigorous standards of quality, craftsmanship and performance. Today that dedication extends to woods, irons, hybrids, wedges, golf balls and a full line of accessories. To learn more, visit us online at www.benhogan.com.

In that time golf equipment has changed unbelievably. I started out over 40 years ago with tiny little Wilson Staff blades. For the last several years I have used a variety of "game improvement" irons. When my handicap dipped into the single digit range I figured I needed an iron that would allow more shot flexibility and also force me to work harder on my technique.My son-in-law once had a set of these irons and he foolishly sold them before he could really appreciate them, a move he regrets to this day. I have had these for about a year now and I can truthfully say, I have never played a finer club. Aside from the obvious esthetic superlatives you usually hear, the clubs just play beautifully. They are more forgiving than pure blades but work the ball very well. Mis-hits lose a little distance but not much. The feel of a solid hit with a forged club is just too sweet. As long as I put a good swing on the ball, I know I will not look up and be disappointed.If you can still find a set of these, do not walk out, get them. You will never regret it."
