Anyone use these clubs? I just received a 5 hybrid and the thing is a breeze to hit straigt and 200 yards. I'm thinking about picking up a set and selling my current set. I don't even think I'll need a driver or 3 wood as the hybrids can take their place.

I really like mine. I'm watching ebay and other online used retailers for the 26 degree #5 Sumo^2 hybrid. Easy to hit, very straight and forgiving, what's not to love? They make #'s 6 and 7 too, but I spend a lot of time with my 6i (it's my go to warm up club on the range) and I don't think replacing it would be of as much benefit as I'm getting with my long irons.

So you like the stiff shaft? I'm debating between stiff/regular. I'm working on swing speed now and don't want to get regular and later regret not getting stiff shafts.

My swing speed isn't real real fast but i use stiff flex in these and have no problems. Better test you some out before you buy.

My swing speed is around 100/w driver. I can swing faster, but that seems to be the point of where I get the most distance out of my clubs while still maintaining some modicum of control. As a general rule that puts me in the "stiff" shaft range. I'd probably be just fine with regular flex, but hopefully as my game progresses I can start to push the envelope of how hard I swing, and that's where and when I don't want to short change myself on my driver, woods, and hybrids shaft flex.

How often, if ever, do you use the 3 or 4 Hybrid off the tee?

One other question for you....Do you believe the headcovers for these are imporant or not? There is an Ebayer that sells these sets cheap but without headcovers. I can get a replacement set or alternatives but I'm wondeing if they're even necessary. Headcovers are usually just a pain anyways.

I've only used them off the tee on long par 3's.

Overall.....love these sticks. I played yesterday and wasn't hitting the ball very well off the tee or otherwise. I was able, however, to pull off very decent and servicable shots with these hybrids and my wedges. These hybrids simply have been a breath of fresh air in my game. Very happy with them.

All the time, well that is on holes where I not using driver and my 3w would be too long (230yds). That means they see use on long par 3's and depending on the hole a few par 4's. Pure contact for the 3 gives me 215yds and I look for 200yds out of the 4 (drop 10yds off of each of those numbers for a slower more controlled swing). If a hole calls for that yardage I pull it out, and I love it when I get to do it.

As to head covers I use mine, but it strikes me that they aren't as necessary as with your driver and fairway woods.

Anyone use these clubs? I just received a

200 yards with a 5 H is super distance!!!

So you like the stiff shaft?

Based on the distance you are getting I'd highly....highly.....very highly recomend you get stiff shafts. It sounds like you are killing 'em.....regular would be to whippy for you.....my opinion anyway.

One other question for you....Do you believe the headcovers for these are imporant or not? There is an Ebayer that sells these sets cheap but without headcovers. I can get a replacement set or alternatives but I'm wondeing if they're even necessary. Headcovers are usually just a pain anyways.

I always use them on mine. They fit over the heads very easily....no reason not too. The tops of the NIKE Sumo Hybrids is painted matte black...scuffs and marks wipe off easily....but...I'd hate to pay the $$$ for a new club and have the top surface beat all to heck just because I let bag chatter beat them up. You can get replacement covers for your favorite colleges, NFL teams and etc.

I'm about 205-190yds with my 3H.........175-190 with my 4H....170-180 with my 5 iron.....etc. I wish I was getting the distance you are....I'd game a 2H and forget about 3W and driver and have 2 more wedges....

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
