Anyone played both of these? I have a 19* Super hybrid and I'm thinking about getting a V3 hybrid in a 22*. Do they play pretty similar?

I can't tel you about the Super Hybrid comparison, but I just put a set of V3s in my bag to start this year and have a few rounds in with them.  The ball JUMPS off the face of the V3s.  Very forgiving too.  Best hybrid I've ever hit.  I'm getting rid of two Ping G5s because of how good the V3s are.

V3s are really good.  I think they are easier to hit than the super.  But.....there is a little bit of a trade off.  To my eye, the v3 looks like it sets up a little open at address.  Also, if you are going to go with a stock shaft, the v3 is very light for a hybrid shaft.

Is there really any difference in the head besides the weight port and a slightly open face? I'm torn between the V3 and the Cleveland Mashie.

Yes there is a difference.  I think a good comparison would be to think of the super as a mini fairway and the v3 as more of a hybrid.  Now I don't know if the head on the v3 is actually open.....I think it is neutral.  But to me looking down on it, it kind of has an open appearance. I have not hit the Mashie.  I have heard a lot of good things about it though.  And, it seems to have developed a almost cult like following.

Haha, I ended up buying the mashie from ebay instead of the V3. I paid about half of what a V3 would run. Will report soon.

I have been wanting to get a V3 hybrid also. I can say that if the hybrids are anything like the V3 irons, the ball will indeed fly off the face. I demo'ed the 7 iron and it felt sooo freakin nice.

I have two MASHIEs an 18 and 23 and they are easy to hit and easy to hit long and stright. Would definitly recommend them.

    • Day 47, June 22.  After work today, I spent 20 minutes in my indoor practice room, hitting about as many balls.  Slow, as slow as I could, 6-iron swings, same priority piece as the past month. 
    • Day 291 6-22 full, faster swings, focusing on low point, missing towel. Recorded some face on and dtl. Practicing full speed changes is something I wasn't doing enough. 
    • Day 2 (22 Jun 26) - used the clip the tee drill today - focused on picking the tee and then collecting the divot.  Hit a few hard foam balls later in the session.  
    • Club of the week, my hybrid. Stripe show on every shot. This one was probably the best. About 240 to the green. The ball was on a severe upslope. I hit it just off the back of the green (like 1-ft. 
    • That will sting for a long time. Had all the momentum in the world.  The on course heckling of WC a bit over the top. IMO, that may have even galvanized him. Kinda like RC. He may have picked up some sympathy too. So boo to the boos. I can't stand him (and it's not just the incidences) but I think when punishment outsizes the crime, the tide tend to turn. He has stuck to "I've earned the hatred" narrative. Smart kid.
