McGolf 255 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 answer to your last question,,, YES second if you struggle with the FW how about trying a hybrid. Say a 17 degree and give it a go. you might just find that is what you are looking for. 1 Quote Driver - 44.5" 5.0 flex 10.5 deg ACCRA tour Z GP MCC4+ 1 deg closed Irons - 5-pw, GW stnd length 5.0 flex same grip 1 deg flat.

My hybrid flight is also low unless I really work to get the flight up or off a tee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
McGolf 255 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 If you like the cally model I might suggest choking down on the club. Most of the newer models are made pretty long. and carrying an 8 HCP I would also look towards the SZ model not the regular rogue 1 Quote Driver - 44.5" 5.0 flex 10.5 deg ACCRA tour Z GP MCC4+ 1 deg closed Irons - 5-pw, GW stnd length 5.0 flex same grip 1 deg flat.

Jbmullin 774 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I tried a bunch of fairway woods and could not hit them, more mind over matter I think as I went in with a negative attitude as I had a strong dislike for them. I ordered the Callaway XR 5 wood after researching and seeing some very good reviews, had it regripped and took it out and from first hits I had a new favorite club, I average 180 yards with it according to arccos caddie , not great for most but for me that filled a massive hole in my game. I have a cobra 3/4 hybrid that I am trying but have not had the same success . 1 Quote DRIVER - Sim Max 10.5 lowered to 9.75 Ventus Red 5 S shaft Woods - Taylormade Sim Ti 3wood - Diamana reg 65 Taylormade 5 wood- Ventus 6r Rescue/Hybrid - IRONS - Callaway Mavrik 6- PW, AW KBS 80 R steel WEDGES- Vokey SM 8 50/54/58 PUTTER- Odyssey Stroke Lab Bird of Prey.

Pappyvanroyl 56 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I am currently gaming the TEE CBX fairway and really like it. Let’s us know how it works for you. It will work more like a “sub zero” lower spin wood though, from what I’ve experienced. Before the CBX, I used a cobra fairway and it launched plenty high/tons of forgiveness. Cobra has been named numerous times here, so just wanted to add to that list!If you like the Adams hybrid, have you looked at their fairway woods? My favorite 5 wood of all time was a Tight Lies. Total mindless wonder.Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy 1 Quote Driver: SearchingWood: Cobra Fly-Z 3 wood factory stiff shaftHybrid: Cobra Baffler 3-hybrid factory stiff shaftIrons: Cobra F8 One Length 5-GWWedges: 52,56,60 Mizuno mp t5Putter: Sentio Red (Medium)Ball: Bridgestone E6 Speed, and Titleist Pro V1 Link to post Share on other sites

The CBX is a beautiful club and I know they are hot as hell off the face. I have a 13* 3 wood that is a mini driver. It is great. But doesn’t compare to my Knick ball hitting ST180 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MIgregb 58 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I'm just now converting to hybrids from my 4 & 5 irons & decided to try MyGolfSpy's CBX offer. Certainly a very good deal for a very good club. I hope it does what I'm looking for but since I'm in MI, I won't really know for several months.

It was a great deal cheaper directly from TEE than anywhere else Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was a great deal cheaper directly from TEE than anywhere else Yep, I got the email announcement on the 26th but didn't order until last Saturday. The offer is only good thru today. I can't take advantage of offers for veterans as was never full-time active (5 years Army National Guard), but I'm glad there are so many out there for vets. You're still short changed in my opinion.

kingcscott 795 Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 As it always happens... a club is delivered 10 minutes before I leave for work. The CBX is dead sexy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MIgregb 58 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I agree! Mine arrived today but all I can do it try them out at the dome until I head out west to visit the kids in March. I decided on the Kuro Kage Silver 80 shaft. I want a bit of height & I understand that shaft provides a higher ball flight than the other two offered. I'd love to hear your impressions once you get them in play. Thanks! 1 Quote Epic Flash SZ 10.5 w/ Motore X F3 65R shaft XR 5 Wood Fairway w/stock Project X Stiff shaft EXS220 3 & 4 Hybrid w/KBS TGI Tour Graphite Reg shaft JPX919 Hot Metal 5-GW w/Project X LZ 5.5 shafts Glide 3.0 54 & 58 deg wedges White Ice Sabertooth putter Link to post Share on other sites
kingcscott 795 Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 So I have been through the TS2 4w. It was good but I should have tried the 5w. The Rogue was a hooking fail for me. Now I have the CBX 5w. It is great. Good shot shaping. Great distance. Flight window is what I want to see. Might have a winner. Plays with free shipping and veterans discount direct from TEE it is a great price point. We may have a winner here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
