Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons Review

Has Precision Reached A New Apex?

Ryan Heiman

Golf is a game of inches. That missed putt that sat on the edge of the cup, that approach shot that hit the green but bounced into a bunker, that drive that was offline 1* and finished in the water, etc.

The smallest of misses can make the biggest of differences on your score card. The game requires precision on every shot with every club.

If you are going to take your game to the next level, you need to be more precise.

The Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons might be the most precise irons I’ve every hit.

I started this review wondering what the “50” difference was between the Apex Ai200 and the Apex Ai150 irons would be.

For me, it ended up being more precision than expected. It seemed like after every swing no matter good or bad it felt, the ball ended up exactly where I wanted it to finish.

I tested these on-course for 6 rounds and ran them through launch monitor testing in the iGR Office by Carl’s Place DIY Simulators.

These are the most precise irons I’ve hit.

This is my definitive Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons Review.

More Consistency

Iron play is all about consistency more than anything else.

Sometimes golfers chase distance, or we want higher launch or we want to shape shots, but honestly if the result circle is the smallest that is the key.

In my testing both on-course and in the simulator I found the dispersion circle the smallest.

The numbers shot after shot were some of the most consistent I’ve seen.

There were very few high spinners or wide rights or flyers, but shot after shot was almost an exact replica of the previous shot.

The Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons are consistent.

Less Offset

I hit the Callaway Apex Ai200 irons pretty well, but found myself fighting the offset.

I know they say it is meant to help square up the club at impact, but that doesn’t help my swing.

The Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons have .7 mm less offset per iron.

While that doesn’t seem like much, looking down at the club at address it is noticeable.

But honestly it was more noticeable while playing.

I never had to think or adjust or manipulate the club, I could swing with confidence.

In a game of inches, that .7mm made a huge difference for me.

Ideal Launch and Distance

The Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons are a players irons set.

They aren’t a pure distance iron, but rather a consistently long, straight and high launching iron.

They did something that makes these irons repeat the same spin, the same launch and the same distance on virtually every shot.

I don’t know if we have reached the apex of consistency yet, but these certainly are close.

From the 4-iron to the Approach wedge, the gapping was even, the launch was high and the stopping power was consistent.

I gamed these with the Dynamic Golf S300 Mid 90 shafts which are easy to swing, but give you that tight s300 feel.

Precise Performance

How does precision translate to the score card?

You’ve probably heard about the new way of talking about stats with “strokes gained”.

While I’m still learning the application and how to calculate that stat, the Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons gave the most strokes gained in iron play of anything I’ve tested.

While I still believe a good tee shot sets my game up for success, hitting precise irons into the green has an even greater impact on my game.

I even saved a bunch of pars when I hit my tee shot in trouble.

The 4-iron was easy to launch, the mid-irons were accurate and the short irons attacked pins.

Summary

The Callaway Apex Ai150 Irons are kind of surprise to me since I wasn’t expecting to be so blown away by their performance.

I got precise performance, less offset, great looks, outstanding feel and at the end of each round: really good scoring.

I think these irons look good enough and perform enough for low handicap golfers to put them in the bag, while forgiving and the ease of hitting means a mid handicap golfer will enjoy the results too.

While Callaway offers the most iron choices of any brand, I think the Apex Ai150 are the apex of precision and their best set of irons.
