jkpigott 67 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Jeff - Note Heaven (Iowa) 7.4 Nickent 17* and 20* The shots I hit with hybrids have to be completely predictable. 100% confidence is what I'm looking for to hit that mid launch penetrating shot. Had a Tour Edge gap wedge in the bag until my son stole it. Recall hitting hybrids in a sim a while back and found them very easy to hit and make great contact.

Kevin Kikkert 36 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Kevin K / Michigan Handicap: 14.6 Currently do not play a hybrid. Have been wanting to buy some for years to replace my long irons in the 185-210 yardage groups. A hybrid for me needs to have ease of hitting out of the rough or uneven lies and feel like an iron at address and less like a fairway metal.

Heavye1026 77 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Eric / NY 10 Don't actually currently have a hybrid in the bag. Always hesitant to put one in, just never pulled the trigger. I've hit my fair share of my friends hybrids. Would love to test one for myself rather than just the one off though! I'd say what I'd look for in a hybrid is distance and workability. If i find one i like, could make some 2020 adjustments the bag for sure WITB 2020 Driver: Callaway Big Bertha 2015 Model - Fubuki shaft 3-Wood: Nike VRs 15 degree Irons: Nike Slingshot 4-AW Wedges: Nike Victory Red SW-56 + LW-60 Putter: Nike Method Core MC-3i ....I may have loved/still love Nike and miss them making golf clubs Link to post Share on other sites

El Chivo 18 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) First Name / State of Residence - Armando / FL Handicap - 2 (in comps), for fun +2. First win ever with Tour Edge already in the bag. Current Hybrid in Play - Taylormade Rescue Mid 2002 (Time to Update!) What is the most important thing to you in a hybrid - The ability to shape the same type of shot from the fairway and off the tee with a similar window.Some are easier to turn over off the tee. And dont offer the same feel off the short grass. I'm working on a WITB review of my CBX Tour Blades I just got from Tour Edge 3-Pw and they are without question the absolutely most forgiving blade on the market with tremendous turf interaction.

Ballzo 0 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I'd play one of these for sure. I consider myself a hybrid specialist with a picky list of requirements for their play.
