wide sole iron vs hybrid????

[Gregoire]

Hey, new to the forum here, and i am contemplating buying a new iron set. I'm wondering what would be the best way to go. A set with a 3 and 4 hybrid club, or just wide sole irons, that i also feel are pretty easy to hit. Thanks for any feedback, if anybody has used both, your comments would be great. Thanks, Greg.

.... There's no doubt about it, hybrids are here to stay .... the question is, which ones are going to work for you ....

Golf is a "feely touchy" thing .. and best thing you can do is spend some time at the local golf stores and find which ones that will fit your game ... and the only way you'll find them "*is to play them*" or at least take them out to a driving range, even if you have to pay a rental fee. Don't get into all the "razzmatazz" of the salesman (they're there to sell product) don't get into the brand name - just get into the fit, feel and what you feel comfortable with ... there's probably a few hundred golfers every week (at least) that walk into their local "Mega Golf Store" with a Golf Digest "hot list" in one hand and an opinion from their brother in the other, and $500/$1,200+ later, they're going home with the wrong clubs .. the sad part is, they won't find this out til' 15/25 months later - if at all .... It's your $$ and your game .. spend the time, be patient and find the right clubs for you .. when you found them, then get a fitting . .. not the other way around. _____

i figured if i joined a golf forum, there wouldn't be so many "keyboard pro's".....i guess not....

Anyhow, i just ordered some custom wide sole irons off ebay. Thanks for the actual feedback.

Wow, it's

Ian MacCallister from the NXT commercials. And actually, with an 11 handicap, I'm thinking wide sole irons might be a little too game improvementy for you, Gregoire.

I think you are on the right track. Go with 3, 4 Hyrbid... then shop around for a combo set (Titleist 735cm, Bridgestone, Nike Pro Combo...) or order 5-8 or whatever is one set (say the Titleist 695CB) and your easier to hit scoring irons 7,8-PW in a better club (like the Titty 695MB)

custom order, get fitted... you might drop some serious cash on them but its a long term investment

Well, I'm gonna give them a try. I tried a friends last year for a round, and had never hit long irons so consistently.

These are the clubs I ordered, that's what was in my budget right now, as i'm going back to school in the Fall. http://cgi.ebay.ca/CUSTOM-LEFT-HANDE...QQcmdZViewItem
