im looking to fill another gap. i want a 15° hybrid that is easy to hit. i need a club that i hit longer than my calloway x-hybrid 2H. the problem is there isnt a lot of options in this loft. i would prefer a stiff graphite shaft cause i will use this club off the tee mostly. a 15° 3 wood would be ok if it has a short enough shaft, i get a little wild with longer shafted clubs. remember, easy to hit. please help.

we rarely have demo days and people around here dont stock enough stuff for fittings. even if i got fitted, i could find it online for WAY cheaper so i usually just play standard stuff and it fits fine. are the slingshots long, distance wise? i dont want to get something i cant hit farther than my calloway 18°

The slingshot is the best club im my bag IMO. It's very forgiving, I can hit it about 180-190 not even warmed up yet. I have a 2H which I believe is a 17 degree hybrid. Definatly give it a shot!

i havent got to see one in person yet, does it have a ton of offset? big and bulky, or more like a players hybrid? what shaft did you get?

Since you request an easy to hit club, I suggest you try a Cobra Baffler DWS #1 Hybrid, with the Aldila NV shaft. It is actually 16 degrees, not 15. But give it a try. The Cobra Baffler is the easiest to hit club I've ever swung. I own 5 bafflers: 16, 18, 20, 23 and 26 degrees. I recently replaced the 16 degree with a Titleist 906F4 3 wood, but I will be rotating that club with the 16 degree Cobra. Do yourself a favor and demo this club. Good luck.

i should have gotten a baffler instead of my calloway but i got a good deal on it so i took it. i would get teh baffler 1h you are talkin about but i want a 15° or 14° im affraid 16° just wouldnt cut it for the distance i want.

I hit the g10 hybrid at a golftown around where I live and I thought was okay, I'd go with the Nickent 4DX amazing, it goes a long way.

No idea why you would want a hybrid to "go a long way," thats what a driver is for

The g10 has a long but narrow face, certainly not bulky. I has the V2 high launch shaft in it, it stiff, plays like a board but very solid!

actually i want it to go a long way cause my driver is all over the place lately and i have been using my 18° off the tee on my trouble holes. i dont play a 3 wood so this will kind of fill in that gap i have there. i looked at the g10 and slingshot today, neither was the loft im looking for but the g10 looks real nice to me. i didnt get to hit either one of them but i dont think anyone in town will have the loft and shaft i want so im probabaly gonna have to order one without hitting it first. im tryin to be patient and wait til i go to St Louis this weekend but im not sure if i can wait that long.

Here's some unsolicited advice: wait to hit the clubs before you buy to avoid buyer's remorse. Also, you might be surprised how far you hit a 16 degree hybrid. I wouldn't discount the possibility of the Cobra Baffler just because it has a 1 degree higher loft than you're looking for. Use judgement based on real life experience. Good luck to you.

honestly i would like 14° but the only on i see is the nickent 4dx. im trying to be patient and not order one until after this weekend because im gonna try to find a large golf store in st louis to demo some hybrids because my local stores dont stock jack. when i decided to get a new hybrid, baffler was the first one on my mind, i was a little disappointed to see them not make the loft i wanted. i will try to hit the one you are talking about before i make a purchase though, thanks. so im planning on hitting the 16° baffler, 15° g10 with the v2 shaft and the 14° 4dx with v2 shaft.

    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.
