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.

Fairway 906F2, 15, V2 85-S flex
Hybrid Rescue TP, 21, ReAx Stiff flex

AW 52, 11 bounce, X-Forged, Project X Flighted Rifle, 5.5SW 56, 13 bounce, X-Forged, Project X Flighted Rifle, 5.5LW 60, 9 bounce,...

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:

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
