Summary: 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.

Summary: I play as a junior golfer in the uk and theese clubs drasticaly improved my game.
At first i was borrowing my grandads X-18
calaway irons and thought it was time to buy my own irons.The callaway irons where a fantastic club but in my opinion the hogans are better and slightly cheaper. they come into their own around the green offering exceptional feel and the short irons generate spin easily. they are also very gound for chipping with. i highly recogmend theese clubs to lowand high handicapped golfers alike!!!
Customer Service: bought from club pro shop and have never had any problems since

Summary: I never tought I would buy anything that is so cheap (less expensive)...
Wow... These BH5 irons are fantastic!!!
As soon as I received them, I took them to the range and hit a large bucket of balls. These clubs are very forgiving, long and very workable.
Two days later, I play with a couple of my friends at a local golf course. They first laugh at my BH5... After the first 5 holes... I was the one laughing... They were shock how good these irons were for me... They keep saying that I have been practicing a lot and how good I was...
Thanks Ben Hogan...
Irons that I used before were Callway x12, cobra SSI king, Mizuno MX23 and Taylormade R7 Draw... Ben Hogan is the best!
I am going to buy another set before these are no longer available in the market!!!
Customer Service: These irons look very well made, I don't think I will have any problem with them.

Summary: 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

Summary: 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???
