- Kiel from Florida, currently living in San Diego California.

- M1 with Kuro Kage X-stiff shafts in both 19/21 degree lofts.

- 19 degree is set to 18 degrees and 21 degree is set to 22.

- STRENGTHS: Hybrids go much higher than long irons allowing for a little more stopping power on long approaches to firm greens.

- WEAKNESSES:  Occasionally flip the club head into the ball at impact causing a snap hook (very rarely).

Tileist 913H 24 Degrees Diamana 72 Hy shafts

Not custom fitted and I tend to hit them low

Robert - Washington, DC

 

TaylorMade RBZ Stage 2 (19*)

 

Aldila RIP Phenom 85 Hybrid (Stiff)

 

Not custom, but aftermarket shaft.

 

Replaced the OEM shaft (Matrix Rocketfuel 65 Stiff) as it was too light and was getting way too much height/spin.

 

Main issue is the RBZ Stage 2 has a significant draw bias and I play a high fade with everything else, so my misses with my hybrid are draws that I'm not even trying to hit.

Fujikara Speeder HB 8.8 tour spec x-flex

 

Fitted at the local Edwin Watts

 

Strengths- consistent driving distance mostly on line with a draw

 

WEAKNESS: Not getting the desired high ball flight that lands softly on the greens

Bad low running ball off the greens

 

Had the honor of meeting Mr. Braly the designer a few months back at the Zurich tournament and he was telling me about the new shaft but it had not been released to the public yet.. The brief conversation intrigued me very much what a coincidence !!!!

- Control / Distance   I have more problems with control of the flight. I prefer stiff shaft as i have more control with this.

Adams Tour Black Super Hybrid 19 and 23

Aldila Voodoo Hybrid

I don't trust the shafts in my hybrids at all, if I try to get a little extra out of the clubs I'll it a hook. When My timing is right watch out pins.

Justin. Currently reside in Connecticut 

 

Titleist 816 H 17 and 21 degree lofts

Diamana White 90 HY, 91 G Stiff 

 

+ 1/2"

 

From the fairway/rough a consistent ball striker but have a tendency to leave the ball right with too much spin off the tee when swinging for distance. My driver and iron shafts are X but there weren't stock X options when purchased. Would love to be able to draw the ball off the tee with hybrid as I do with other clubs.
