Callaway releases Xander Schauffele’s Apex TCB irons in limited run

Callaway is celebrating Xander Schauffele’s incredible season by releasing the same irons he plays to the public. Two majors adds a ton of credibility to the Apex TCB and many pros trust these irons each week. The current Apex TCB irons that Xander uses are the second generation of the Tour Cavity Back (TCB) irons, the first was introduced in 2021.

Many golfers will look at the 2024 Apex TCB and think it is the Apex CB that you can find at your local golf shop. The initial looks and shape are similar with just a slight change in the cavity and “TCB” printed out on the toe. But there are a few distinct differences between the two.

1. Construction: Apex TCB irons are built using a forged 1025 body and cavity back for soft feel and increased responsiveness that skilled players demand. The face is made of 17-4 stainless steel that is tuned for spin consistency and control.

2. Shaping: If you like a more compact, blade like, look from address then the Apex TCB could be for you. This iron combines the looks of a blade with the playability of larger cavity back, helping with those less-than-perfect shots. The topline is also a little thinner and the irons have a shorter blade length from heel to toe.

3. Finish: Raw! Yes, these irons have a raw, unplated, finish that will rust and patina as you play them. Now the interesting part is that the face and small section of the sole will not rust as they are made from stainless steel. This is the exact same finish that Xander has on his Apex TCB set.

The only downside to this release is that Callaway is only making 1,000 sets so you will need to get yours quickly as they will sell out fast. Stock sets of the Apex TCB are 4-10 (Yes, the 10 iron is here!) with True Temper Dynamic Gold Mid 115 shafts. Of course you can custom order your Apex TCB with a wide range of shafts, grips, and specs. The price of these new Apex TCB is $215 per club, $1,505 for a 7-piece set.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
