Im going to buy a new hybrid today, im down to 2 choices

Nickent 5dx 24.5* vs Mizuno clk fli hi 26* in steel

ive read amazing reviews about the Nickent, and the mizuno.

these clubs are not available to demo here, What do you guys think of the mizuno in steel? Should it be easier to hit and control since its steel?

What would you chose?

It depends on what you're looking for. I play 3 Mizuno irons, the 17* (2H) in steel and the 23* and 26* in graphite. If control is your main interest then steel is a good choice. I use my 17* off the tee as alternative driver and like the steel because of a lower trajectory and I at least feel more in control. With the other 2 I like graphite because I want them to fly high and land soft. The 17* probably plays more like a 20* (3H) because of the steel and that's how I use it because the difference in distance between my 17* and 23* is only about 10-15 yards. If you are trying to fill a gap for a specific distance then you'll need to decide what that distance is and fill with the club. The Nickent is probaly going to be 15+ yards longer due to graphite (I am assuming it's graphite since you do not specifically say) and the lower loft. I love my Mizuno and never really cared for the feel of the Nickent's but I know plenty of people love them as well.

thanks for the reply, i have a diablo 21* hybrid and a Nike sumo 30 hybrid. So i was looking for something to fill the gaps with. Was just worried the mizuno in steel carry the same as the nike 30 graphite hybrid. But i do love the idea of a steal hybrid, i like control.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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.
