A Hogan iron for the masses: Ben Hogan Edge returns
Thirty years ago when the original Ben Hogan Edge iron hit the market, it was a game changer. Now, the direct-to-consumer Ben Hogan Golf Equipment Company is reintroducing the Edge iron. As Hogan’s first “game improvement” offering, the original Edge uniquely blended feel and forgiveness. The new Edge seeks to do the same.
Forged, with ample perimeter weighting, the Hogan company says the new Edge irons are uniquely capable of providing feel and better performance on mis-hits, importing the same perimeter-weighted design as the original Edge irons.
Edge irons are forged in two pieces. The hosel and back frame are forged first, then the forged face is laser-welded into place.
The precise, hollow head construction also allows the company to control (and vary) face thickness. Longer irons have a very thin, yet strong, engineered for distance. The mid and short irons incorporate a progressively thicker face design
Edge irons feature a modified version of the company’s V-Sole Technology. It’s the same design principles but redesigned for a wider variety of golfers. The leading edge from sole to face has been ‘softened’ with more bounce has been added to the trailing edge.
Ben Hogan Edge Irons can be customized at no charge. Golfers can select specific lengths, lies, and grips as well as their choice of a variety of steel and graphite shafts.
The Ben Hogan Edge Irons are available for demo or purchase at www.BenHoganGolf.com exclusively. Edge Irons are sold direct-to-consumers for $735.00 per seven-piece set (4-iron through pitching wedge).

Strange…. all the OEM club makers are introducing hollow back flex face irons at the same time. Makes ya wonder if they are colluding with the Russians… 😮

I still have a set of the original Edge irons from 1991. Lovely-looking things and played very well with the Hogan Apex shafts. These do not look to be worthy of the Hogan name.
