Or should I just shutup, realise I am a total chopper and graphite shafts are not the reason I can't crack into the 80's. I am told, the Hogan Apex Medallions are one of the best. The good thing is, you can pick up a pretty good set of Hogans on ebay pretty cheaply. The only other set of irons I have owned that come close to the feel of the Hogans were the Titleist DCI Blacks I had when I worked for Titleist. Should I just ebay them and trawl the Pro Shop? They have a little offset which I prefer. I am a pretty handy fellow, and quite familiar with all things epoxy, so apart from likely wrecking the existing graphites on the way out, I don't see it being too difficult. I was even thinking about tackling the process myself. Probably with a little change in my pocket. Here is the simple maths I have been doing in my head:įor that money, I could just ebay the suckers and buy another set of irons with the shafts I need already in them. I guess the x-factor here is how much it would cost to reshaft them. Am I better off selling them, and just buying an already-shafted set of irons? I have recently been thinking of reshafting them, but I believe the economy of the process might be a little prohibitive (A bit like putting a $3000 audio system in a $2000 Toyota Corolla). I picked them up for an absolute steal maybe 6 months ago, and I quite like them. In 1988 I changed to the Apex Redline and soon after to the Apex Grind, two of the finest sets I’ve ever played. Ok, I have a set of Hogan BH-5 irons (read: Cally X-14 by another name). My first set was a Ben Hogan 1984 Apex PC and that started my passion for his forged iron sets and Persimmon Woods.
