tell you what Shooter. Lets put this argument to rest.

I demand a video clip of you hitting your awesome 2 iron or 1 iron and we'll decide from there. How about that?

It's become clear that he's a troll. I haven't played with a 10 or 15 handicap that can hit the shots Shooter is claiming he hits with regularity, yet he's a 36.

If he's not a troll, and is genuinely a 36 'capper then he's delusional or dumb.

If they hit it like old men, I would very much like to be an old man. I agree with golfro, lets see this swing. Maybe we can send it to Tiger so he'll learn something.

i hate hybrids. they are for old men and hackers.

Old men and hackers, like the majority of guys on the PGA Tour, eh?

Nothing wrong with hitting a 2 iron 250 yards on a windy course, problem is I'll bet you can't do it. I love the way people talk about "shaping" the ball with long irons. If you can "shape" it with a 2 iron, you can do it with a hybrid.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

"Tiger runs with a 2 iron doesn't he?

does he carry a hybrid?" (quote by the new guy, 'shooter mcgreenkeeper') as for the pros, guys like steve stricker and jim fruyric probably do caryy hybrids because they hit like old men[/QUOTE] Wow. Tiger runs with a 2 iron rarely*. He carries his 5 wood most of the time. If hitting like an old man gives you a combined 4 PGA victories this year, I WANT TO HIT LIKE AN OLD MAN.

And that forged = good, even though all clubs used to be forged until the 70s.

What bizarre logic! MIckelson uses a hybrid. Clark and dozens of others do too.

This is like saying that a person who has been playing piano for 3 months should have a Steinway concert grand. The fact that Tiger has a 2 iron doesn't mean that anyone else should

Tiger rarely even has the 2 iron in his bag. It's mostly the 5 wood unless he is playing somewhere he needs to hit it really low. Like the British Open.

Nice evasive tactics there. Unless you live back in the 90s, I am sure your phone would have a camera.
