Try the Nickents.......as they have gone out of business, there are plenty of the 3DX & 4 DX hybrids for sale.

I bought the 3DX in the 1, 2, 3 & 4 iron hybrids......I interchange them based on the course and wind conditions.

They are really great as I hit them #4 170; #3 185; #2 200 & # 1 215.

They work terrific in trouble spots such as under trees.....very straight!

I really like the ones in my signature, I think Adams has come out with a "Black" line now but it looks like the same thing

Adams are great, they basically perfected the hybrid.

Nickents are really good, as are Callaways. Most Hyrbids are pretty good, just pick the one that makes you feel the most comfortable.

Guys get so hung up on equipment, and more importantly the name stamped on a club. All that really comes down to is just another way to wave your dick around and get an Ego boost. Who gives a crap what name is on a club, almost every club manufacturer has a comparable model to every single other manufacturers models. It just comes down to comfort and personal taste. If having Muzino stamped on your club makes you feel better about the 100 you shot that day, then by all means it's the club for you....

If you're not into the squarish shape of an Adams hybrid, then you should try the Callaway Big Bertha Heavenwood (or Diablo, pretty much the same thing) hybrids. Very very little (I don't think any) offset in them, and a very good and forgiving club. They got my vote.

I'm currently using the Adams a4 3 and 4 hybrid. The a4 series from Adams have no offset, which I like a lot. I had picked up an a7os to try out and it was just hook city, way way too much offset. I got rid of that and picked up the a4 3 hybrid because I had the a4 4 and loved it. The best part is that you can get the a4 hybrids pretty darn cheap on eBay too!

Basically every manufacturer makes low offset hybrids, you just need to find one that you like at address and fits the bill in terms of what you are looking for.
Plus, everyone will give you different suggestions based on the club they have so hitting them is the only way to really get an idea of which one you want.

Adams seems to be a favorite. Try Cobra Bafflers ... they are known to be a very good hybrid as well and I think they're fairly easy to hit and control.

My Nickent is the only reason I can shoot below par. I think I only use my irons 3 times on a 9 course.

I'm just curious what yardage ranges do you use it??

Honestly any yardage 160 plus, I am able to adjust my swing speed pretty good. I just not comfy swinging my long irons. Plus since it is a 20 degree I can hit it over 200 consistently without swinging too hard

    • Day 22 - 2026-01-11 More mirror work. Back outdoors tomorrow.
    • Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)
    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
