Paradym Apex Pro

4.7 mph drop in ball speed on toe strikes — best in field, where most of the irons saw a 6-10 mph drop (~18-30yd of distance loss). Ranked 3rd in forgiveness in 2024 players-iron Lab test. Extra technology and forgiveness help make the iron noticeably more forgiving. 4- and 5-irons use the same 455 steel cup face as the Paradym irons for face flex; remainder of set uses forged 1025 steel cup face + urethane microspheres. Top-tier forgiveness for players-iron category — class-leading toe-strike ball-speed retention via face-tech + 3rd-best dispersion across the category.

Best for distance, the longest iron in the player's iron test — ranked #1 distance + #4 ball speed in 2024 PI Lab test. Forged hollow construction on the Pro produced noticeably lower spin — 674 RPMs when compared to the one-piece CB. 0.5mph faster ball speed than the Apex CB across three strike locations. Tungsten-weighted inserts in 4-5 irons for Tour-type launch conditions with low CG + thin ultra-hot face. Apex Pros don't feel as hot off the face as the Callaway Paradym irons — slight step back from PD line distance. Top-tier distance for players-iron category — #1 in robot test + 674rpm lower spin than CB drives meaningful carry advantage in compact head.

Apex Pros offer much more workability, allowing golfers to shape the ball both ways on command.

Forged 1025 carbon steel head in 6-PW + tour-CG via tungsten in long irons. Balanced and stable feel at address and throughout the swing—the quality you would expect from a forged players iron. Top-tier workability for the players-distance category — explicit shapeability on intent + compact players profile + control-tuned mid/short irons.

Apex Pro and CB knock it out of the park for feel, with a very soft and muted feel compared to previous generations and other irons in this category, even in the long irons of the Pro with the different face material. Feel at impact is hot and soft yet solid, with balanced and stable feel at address. Forged 1025 carbon steel head + patented urethane microspheres dampen sound and improve feel while still allowing the face to flex. Sweet spot strikes sound very crisp and solid, with very good feedback; mis-hits are not jarring. Top-tier feel for players-iron category — class-leading soft/muted forged compression with retained face flex.
