Shoots in the 100s
I just purchased the BH-5 Offset irons for $200 new. I wanted easier long irons to hit. I have been playing older Mizuno MX-20 irons. The Mizunos have a wonderful forged feel esp. the shorter irons when chipping. The Hogans' are Ok for feel and the distance(abit loner than the Mizunos) and direction are good. The grips are a bit rough compared to the Lampkins I was using, but work fine. Overall a good value at today's prices. |

I already own 2 sets my beloved ping I3 and mx 23 mizuno, so I really didnot needed another set but one day I was on the golf shop and saw them for 300.00 then decided to buy them to have as spare. To make the long story short i like these irons so much that my ping set is sitting on the garage, I get 10 extra yards per iron and these can cut through the turf way more easy than my pings. mid to high ball flight, great spin on the greens and light. Great for chipping around the greens. Really can't understand how these irons never made it big. Customer Service Not needed Similar Products Used: ping i3 and miuno mx23 |

Ben Hogan BH-5 iron set
Picked up the set from Golfsmith for $199 3-PW. Pros: Set looks really sharp; plays comparably to X-18s. Cons: the stainless stell head seems a bit to "soft" and wears noticeably. (play about once a week for the past 6 months) Customer Service I question the durability of the club as my 5-iron and 6-iron heads are noticeably coming loose compared to the rest of the less used irons. Brought back to Golfsmith to repair the head on 3/3/08. Still awaiting (as of 3/10/08) Maybe an immitation product??? Similar Products Used: Callaway X-18s, Callaway Big Bertha 2002 |

Ben Hogan BH5 Offset apex edge
I bought my first set of hogan bh5's in the middle of last summer and was very impressed how easy they were to hit. Nice feel to them. I started hitting nice shots the second time out and didn't stop the rest of the year, good enough to win my club championship. Similar Products Used: callaway offset |

Very good club . I wish more people would demand Hogan irons . It is a same Callaway seems to want this line to go away . Very easy to hit but you can still work the ball. Clean look , great at set up . Apex shaft is also tops . Great club at any price . |

Just got the BH-5's from golfsmith for 199 after using a Top Flite for 5 years. I was going back and forth between the Nike sligshots, Callaway's Big Bertha and the X-18. I finally bought this based on some reviews and a quick trial. These irons are great, this might be a little premature but the first few rounds at the driving range look like I have gained atleast 10 yards on my irons. |

These clubs are the best buy on the market, period!. They compare with much more expensive clubs. I like them better than the Calaway X18's that they have now replaced. A great classic look

Like others, I was skeptical of these being under $200 new. After trying at the range, I was blown away at the all around performance. Great feel, distance and workability. Better than all the Ping and Calloway models I tried. Customer Service n/a Similar Products Used: Ping Zing 2; Calloway; Ping Eye 2 |
