I have a Cleveland halo 2i. I do like it but as it is a 2iron I hardly need to use it. The only time that i need it is into the wind when playing a low running shot or off the tee. For me it is the same as hitting a fairway wood.
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose.

Go with the 2007 Burner, I just bought one 3 days ago and I love it. It's not steel shaft but it is very workable. I hit it from 210 yds out (it's a 4 iron hybrid) and I had to put a little cut on it to get around a patch of trees and I put it about 12 feet from the hole. If I may make a suggestion, don't get a steel shaft. To me it takes away all the feel and it feels like you are hitting a rock when you hit your ball.

Driver: G10 10.5 Stock Shaft
3 Wood: Taylormade r580XD
Irons: AP2 3-P, Project X 5.5
Wedges: Tour-W 52*, 56* SM, 60* SM
Putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5 34"Ball: ProV1 or ProV1xLow Score:74

I find a steel shaft gives a better feel and more feedback than a graphite shaft.

By the way I use a cleveland hibore, very nice and workable.

I have the fusion 2-H, I don't actually keep it in my bag as I use the 3-w, 3-h and 4-h. I figure the gap between my 3-w and 3-h is preferable than that between my pw and sw. I really like the club, has a great trajectory for into the wind. Hell if you want to buy mine I'm open to offers....

why haven't you looked into getting an Adams hybrid? those are easily one of the top hybrids on the market. I know alot of people that are very pleased with theirs.

Don't know much about them, which hybrids are comparable to these I listed, and if they are in price range($70-$140)

I picked the Sasquatch, but to tell you the truth, I didn't really like any of those clubs. I'd say that you either go with a Bobby Jones hybrid, or an Adams Golf hybrid.

I bought the G10.

Were I going to go back and do it again.....I'd opt for steel shaft and maybe 2 degrees more loft.

The club is a gem, though.

Adams has the a3 os boxer hybrid which is 150 but the hybrid that everyone seems to like is the idea pro hybrid which is 200 some places. you might be able to get a deal some places.

I dont use hybrids but one of my friends used the Taylormade rescue TP and he loved it. Maybe its cause of his $300 matrix ozik atlus shaft. HAHA

I love my Nicket DC/DX's. Or is it DX/DC? Either way they are great hybrids.

I use the Adams Idea Pro with the VS proto 80 after reading the review here...
It's got the best looking face ( better than their new pro gold i think) & the shaft is a bomb !

    • Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light. 
    • Day 117 12-7 A bit of chipping practice today. Full swing- hit some real balls to see where Im at. 
    • Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.
    • I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.
    • Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
