Which hybrid are you using?

I like my Nike Slingshot. My son swears by this Muzuno hybrid.

I'm currently playing a Srixon 18* hybrid. If I had to switch I would switch to the Adams Idea Pro Gold. I always play my Srixon so well I can't think of a reason to switch.

I'm using the Adams Idea Pro Gold 2H and 3H, which I considered to be my dream hybrids before I bought them, but after playing 4 rounds with them I'm not really sure if I like them as much as my Nike Slingshots.

I absolutely love my slingshots, they're the best hybrids I've ever used, but a friend of mine said the Adams were even better, so . . . . I guess I'll play another 10 rounds with them before I decide. The Adams are great when I catch them clean, but not as good out of the deep stuff, I'm finding.

I have always done well with the Nike rescue clubs. I started with the original red ones (CPR?) and now have a 5 and 6 in the old black style (slingshot maybe?). For some reasons the Nike just fit my swing. I actually carry the 5 *just* for getting out of fairway bunkers..

I use a Walter Hagen that I got at Dick's Sporting Goods. It has moveable weights so I thought it was "cool". I did not like it when I first used it but I reshafted it and I love it now. If I ever got a new hybrid I would probably go with a Cobra.

I use a Cobra DWS baffler in 23*. But I was one of the first on the hybrid bandwagon with a 26* Nike CPR wood. My dream hybrid would be the DWS with a 1/2-1" shorter shaft. Any hybrid that has a shaft closer to the iron shaft length than the wood shaft length is a great idea I think.

No hybrids. Had a Dunlop 5, then a TaylorMade Mid Rescue 2, and for a brief time a Titleist 585H 5. Also tried several at the golf store.
I'm very happy now being able to hit my 4 iron and I'm loving my Nike 4 wood...I can choke up on it and hit a nice shot just past my 4-iron, or I can give it a swing and get it out there 230-240...very versatile for me.

Maybe one day I'll try some hybrids again. My favorite one to date was the Dunlop LoCo 5. I don't know what it is about that club, but it was great from everywhere...rough, sand, fairway. And why don't I have it anymore? Because the wife tried it and kept it!

Im more than happy with my 3i TaylorMade Burner rescue. it is extremely easy to hit, and will go 220 with very little effort.

Ditto. Although mine broke because I took it out of the bag when I put it in my trunk, and I stupidly propped it up slightly, causing it to snap when someone's bag was out on top of it. Currently being repaired.

The Adams in my signature. It's good, but not the best I've hit. I'll most likely be picking up the new Titleist 909H in November.

I'm thinking of replacing my 3wood with a 15* hybrid and then adding a 19*.

I just assembled a set of Snake Eyes Viper Tour Blacks. I made a 2H, 3H and 4H for myself. I've yet to hit them.

I'll say this, though -- for a Golfsmith component, those things look to be top-notch in quality. Interchangeable weight ports, too. I believe I'm going to like them a lot but will report back after a few rounds.

It's hard to say, I like my Cleveland XLS, it launches high and is easy to use but I also idolize the Titleist 585h for it's iron like behavior. Like many of the others I am also curious of the hype behind Adams as well.

See sig for hybrids used.

My dream hybrid is the one I use on very long par 5's that leaves me tap in eagle putts, and on very long par 3's leaves me tap in birdie putts.

My hybrids have left me quite a few of those this year so cant complain :)

I have both the 2i and 3i Cleveland Halo's. I like the look at address and they both have the buttery soft feel that provides the spin I need to stop on the green and the distance I need out of the rough etc. Plus, I got the 2i a couple months ago on eBay, brand new for under $50. I like them so much I have take out my 3W and 5W and feel I have more confidence with the hybrids.

Find a model that you like, maybe even an older model, and you will be surprised at the deals you can find out there.
