I recently went in to take a look at these at my local Golf Galaxy and they didn't have a 3 or 2 hybrid. I was pretty disappointed because I wanted to buy one before my round tomorrow. I was wanting to know how these feel. I have heard that they feel pretty solid and have a nice swing weight to them as well. Anyone here have better shots with them with them? How do they play in the rough?

The Nike SQ hybrid was the first one that convinced me that there are good hybrids out there - my prior experience had been with clubs that I felt were necessary replacements for clubs that "I can't hit" (according to magazines and so on), but weren't clubs I liked.

My first round with the SQ in the bag, my first swing with it (hadn't even hit it on the range) and I hit it to 3 feet and nail the putt for birdie. I've loved it ever since, and it has produced its share of good shots.

I'm fine with it in the rough. It's certainly a lot better than my long irons from the rough used to be.

I've hit one on golf galaxy before and didn't rrlly like it, felt like I was hitting the ball with. piece of wood. Try out the g10 hybrid, its a thing of beauty once you hit it.

I got rid of my Sumo SQ hybrids (and fairway woods) for my Wilson Fybrid hybrids and fairway woods, and I much prefer the Wilsons. From what I recall reading over the years, the Sumo SQ hybrids have not been viewed all that positively. I think there are much better hybrids out there, whether the Wilsons, Ping G series, Cobra Bafflers, etc.

I have both the 3 and 5 SQ Sumo hybrids and love them,wouldn't swap them for anything.
I had a Baffler and one or two Adams hybrids and hated all of them especially the Baffler.

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
