Ben Hogan Icon Irons

A one piece forged muscle back, the Icon is the purest club Hogan make: no cavity, no insert, nothing bonded on afterwards. Thin topline, minimal offset, a compact head that sits small behind the ball. Feedback is the whole proposition, which is why it goes to golfers who already find the middle regularly and want to know precisely where on the face they found it.

Stock is six clubs beginning at the 5 iron, with a 34 degree 7 that counts as traditional by any current measure. Shaft choice is unusually broad for a blade, with two steel families on the list and a set of UST Recoil graphite profiles for players who want a forged muscle back without a heavy stick under it. It comes right handed. If the long irons look too thin to trust, the PTx Pro and Icon combo blends them into something friendlier.
