I'm a wicked pickle, I play the Titleist 503H and I can honestly say that I really like it. It's strange though because my distance varies greatly with the club...

I'm a club buff... I'll admit to that, so now I carry the 904F 15 degree, and the 22 degree Titty... I have room for one club and am not sure whether to get the 585H 19 degree or a 5 wood 906F2...

any suggestions?

Yeah, start a new thread instead of jumping on the back of one that's asking a different set of questions?

In a fitting I hit all brands and hit the Taylormade the longest, but I hit the Hogan CFT Ti the best. The Hogan had the highest launch and most spin of all. For me at least this was the best. The distance fit into my set and allowed for best approach shots.

Has gotten good reviews in Golf Mag and is made by Callaway.

I have hit both the TaylorMade Rescue (not Current Model ) and the Cobra Baffler, both with stock, regular flex graphite shafts. I found the Rescue too heavy for me; the Cobra was just right. I have found the 23 degree so useful that I am considering replacing a couple of fairway metals with the comparable Cobra hybrid. It is the easiest club to hit in my bag, other than my putter.

I have been using Nike CPR 18*,22*,26*,and 30* for a year now and they worek pretty well for me . I bet i'll have a couple or 4 in my bag until scientists come up with something better.

I've had a number of hybrids, am currently using a Prosimmon Icon 18*, it's a really nice club, but is prone to the odd hook.

Have also tried the Sonartec MD in 19*. And while this is a great looking club I felt it was difficult to get it in the air, especially with the i-rod stiff shaft.

Am considering taking a look at the new Nickent offering.

    • I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
    • Day 28: 2026.01.30 Managed to make time for a few swings out back today. Need a proper bit of range time this weekend.
    • Day 30, 1/30.  Six minutes this morning hitting a few more range balls, indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Did this before leaving the house.

    • Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
