I have a Cleveland halo 2i. I do like it but as it is a 2iron I hardly need to use it. The only time that i need it is into the wind when playing a low running shot or off the tee. For me it is the same as hitting a fairway wood.
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose.

Go with the 2007 Burner, I just bought one 3 days ago and I love it. It's not steel shaft but it is very workable. I hit it from 210 yds out (it's a 4 iron hybrid) and I had to put a little cut on it to get around a patch of trees and I put it about 12 feet from the hole. If I may make a suggestion, don't get a steel shaft. To me it takes away all the feel and it feels like you are hitting a rock when you hit your ball.

Driver: G10 10.5 Stock Shaft
3 Wood: Taylormade r580XD
Irons: AP2 3-P, Project X 5.5
Wedges: Tour-W 52*, 56* SM, 60* SM
Putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5 34"Ball: ProV1 or ProV1xLow Score:74

I find a steel shaft gives a better feel and more feedback than a graphite shaft.

By the way I use a cleveland hibore, very nice and workable.

I have the fusion 2-H, I don't actually keep it in my bag as I use the 3-w, 3-h and 4-h. I figure the gap between my 3-w and 3-h is preferable than that between my pw and sw. I really like the club, has a great trajectory for into the wind. Hell if you want to buy mine I'm open to offers....

I bought the G10.

Were I going to go back and do it again.....I'd opt for steel shaft and maybe 2 degrees more loft.

The club is a gem, though.

Adams has the a3 os boxer hybrid which is 150 but the hybrid that everyone seems to like is the idea pro hybrid which is 200 some places. you might be able to get a deal some places.

I dont use hybrids but one of my friends used the Taylormade rescue TP and he loved it. Maybe its cause of his $300 matrix ozik atlus shaft. HAHA

I use the Adams Idea Pro with the VS proto 80 after reading the review here...
It's got the best looking face ( better than their new pro gold i think) & the shaft is a bomb !

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.

      Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By billchao ·

      That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.

      By billchao ·

      This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.

      One handed swing faster?

      By davidgolfman ·

      He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
