I have removed the 3 iron from my bag and am looking to replace it with a hybrid. I am looking for a hybrid that looks more like an iron than a wood at address.

Anyone have a recommendation? I am leaning toward the Cobra or the Burner.

I recently did the same thing and replaced my 3 iron with a Nickent 3dx DC Ironwood. Very pleased with it. Great feel, workable yet forgiving, and a very reasonably priced on Ebay and other discount sites because the new 4dx from Nickent came out recently.

In The Bag:
905R UST V2 Stiff
906F2 UST V2 Stiff
3DX dc 17* Stiff
2300 IM 4-PW Stiff CG 12 Black Pearl 52*, 56*, 60* C67 Pro V1x

I prefer a more compact hybrid myself. Here are some possibilities for you to look at -- I've demo'd most of them and they are all good clubs, just depends exactly what you're looking for and what fits your game.


Tour Edge Mens Bazooka JMAX Iron-Woods

Adams Mens IDEA a2 Hybrid Utility Clubs

Adams Mens Tech OS Hybrid Woods

Adams Mens IDEA Pro Hybrid i-Woods

Nickent Mens 3DX DC Ironwoods

Titleist Mens PT 585-H Utility Woods

I build a lot of my own clubs and as soon as these heads are in stock I'll be building a set of them to replace my TaylorMade hybrids:

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here.

      Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.

      There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:

      Ugly elbow in question
    • gestate0560
      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      By gestate0560 · Posted

      I've developed a serious case of the shanks and difficult to control push fades/slices with my irons lately. I used to draw my irons pretty consistently. I currently most draw driver. Also, I don't like how my elbow sometimes pops out from down the line, especially with driver and/or if I'm trying to hit it harder. I can control the elbow a lot better with irons, but quite difficult to have good contact and speed while controling it on driver.
