Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Irons vs Callaway Apex 21 Irons

Buy the Paradym AI Smoke if you want the most forgiveness and distance in a cast, hollow-body players-distance iron. Buy the Apex 21 if feel and shot-making matter more, since its fully forged body and urethane microspheres give a softer, more controlled response. The AI Smoke suits mid-to-high handicaps chasing tighter dispersion; the Apex 21 suits the 5-to-15 handicap who wants a compact forged head. Owners rate both highly, with the Apex 21 slightly ahead on feel and the AI Smoke ahead on forgiveness.

• Choose the Paradym AI Smoke if you want maximum forgiveness and distance with a blade-like look and a high launch.
• Choose the Apex 21 if you want a fully forged iron with soft feel, workability and a compact players-distance shape.
