About a decade ago I had a full set of FORGAN Hybrids. It was before I started taking lessons. I absolutely loved them but eventually learned how to hit irons. It is an interesting shot with a hybrid SW out of a bunker but it can be done. For high handicappers, something to seriously consider.

I have neoprene headcovers for my Taylormade irons. They are chrome so as I like to keep em that way the headcovers are ideal. No banging together and an added bonus is when the wet stuff comes down the water doesn't go down from the heads into the bag and the grips stay relatively dry.

I’ve been playing golf for a year and I am highly considering adding a few of these clubs into the bag. I currently play off 20hcp and have average club head speed. Why I am considering these? Make the game easier. In most other sports technology and equipment that makes the game easier is considered good. But for some reason golfers seem to be against equipment that can help be better for less effort. I already have the Cobra OL 4h and 5h replacing my 4i and 5i so I am seriously considering picking up the Eleven 6h and maybe even 7h. No shame or pride about it. My best irons are pw-8i, after that I have trouble, why not get clubs that can help? I use game improvement wedges as well. Make the game easier and more fun. Life is too short for a golfer who plays twice a month to not consider game improvement clubs.

@newscottishgolf7305 2 ай бұрын

Yeah, some golfers really get their head up their ass about embracing technology. I prefer to play with the traditional equipment(golf is a very traditional game and I think that’s where it comes from technology in golf has seriously been an argument since the days of wooden shafted clubs becoming steel traditionalists really had a fit about that one back in the day) but there is a place for equipment like this that just makes the game easier and fun the only time It matters what someone else is hitting is if it’s an illegal club in a sanctioned tournament other than that smack whatever club you got

I've got covers for mine but for two reasons, 1 they are the most expensive ones I've ever bought and the only time I've been fitted so I want to look after them, and 2 they also tell me which clubs I hit or don't use, in case I want to change a club. So sometimes there's tactics involved

Low handicap friend of mine plays the Mazakis, looks so easy, I am getting on a bit so I bought 3 and 4 from Eleven to replace my TM M3 hybrids with a view to moving to a full set, but I just couldn't get them to work no matter what. Lost at least 2 clubs worth of distance. Could be user error but I am a 5 hc! Very confused and dissappointed.

@shaneducholke364 5 ай бұрын

I laughed hard at that putting example of Northern Irish greens, in winter mode punched greens. Our joke name for them is Windows Safe Mode .( you can try but the green has limited performance). Great example of the beauty of Hybrid clubs, easy to hit great for slow swing speed hitters. Bonkers when you push the performance out of them.

I mean, when you drop over a grand for irons, you gotta recoup a little more than what trade in will get you after a year or two

They can joke all they want you’re playing golf and getting the results you want you’re seem to be getting the process down. I’ve been through the same thing when I play my hickory shafted clubs people literally seeing me roll up to the first tea with clubs older than most of there their grandfathers some people give me the who’s this joker we got paired with looks until I literally hit 80 to 100 year-old golf clubs better than they hit their modern clubs then the holy shit looks start to come but 90% of people think it’s cool as hell before I’ve even hit a shot. If it’s not an illegal club in a sanctioned tournament who cares what club/clubs the guy next to you is hitting

I hate that something that calls itself a wedge is 43°. At this point, I feel like we need to bring back the 10 iron and then we make the pitching wedge wear strong A wedges are and then you can still have an approach wedge that's in the low 50°. I feel like nobody questions it that most sets now have a gap wedge and now a low 50s wedge and then a sand wedge. I'm aware how old I sound, but I was born in the mid '90s.
