I hit the previous hybird pretty well for a few months then it gets ugly very quickly so end up dropping it out.....

Have you tried out all of those? I haven't hit them all but can tell you that TM rescue and Cobra Baffler are hard to beat. Fusion is nice too but make sure you get the right setup (draw or neutral). Callaway X is hot off the face too.

It took me a little while to get used to hitting my first hybrid consistently. But then, once I got the hang of it, there was no going back and I bought two more this year. A typical three iron replacement, I believe, is a 7 wood. I hit my 7 wood very well. A hybrid is often easier to hit than a fairway wood, but you may want to try a 7 wood as well as the hybrid. If I had it to do over, I probably would own no fairway woods, just hybrids.

I just threw the 7 wood out of my bag in favor of a Cleveland 3i Halo (didnt get the HIbore because I picked up the Halo brand new for 85$) First swing with it I hit a 3 iron + 10 distance, landed soft onto the green, hit my birdie and bought one as soon as I left the course.

I have both the TM 16* and 19* hybrids in the bag. I dont carry a proper three word because I hit the 16* 215ish off the deck and 230ish off a tee.

I am tempted to put a strong three wood in the bag to satisfy my ego on par 5's, but have resisted thus far

I would definately recommend the TM rescue line. They have helped my game tremendously.

    • Day 12: did the yardstick putting drill for a bit while watching tv. 
    • Hole 6, 185 uphill par 3, wind out of the right. I hit a 7 iron to 5-FT left of the pin. The ball landed about 185.5 yards. I drained the putt for a birdie, and most likely a skin.  2nd place is more of a best swing made. 110 yard wedge shot, where I did what I wanted in the back swing and downswing.  I hit a 75% partial wedge 95%. It was flushed, flighted, and beautiful to watch fly over the green. 🤣. I will need to redial in the wedges sometime. Since I am making an effort to make my former 3/4 swing length my full swing length. 
    • Is that like "the longest yardstick you can find"? I don't have Airtags but I'd call all of them Airtags too.!
    • Yea, that makes sense.  I remember an Open tournament when they brought out the wind meter one day because balls were being blown around the green. I think it was 45+ sustained, which probably means 60 mph gusts.  I think for the most part, it isn't something that needs to be taken into account.  Also, a golf ball is designed to optimally move through the air. It has better aerodynamics than a sphere.  Thanks for your expertise on this. That makes sense. I know about how wind diminishes the lower in height you go. I didn't know it went near zero at the ground. I deal more with tall structures (utility poles), and we have to take into account height and impacts of wind on the pole. A bit of experience, but wasn't sure how close to zero, non-impactful it was on the golf ball on the ground. 
    • Day 2 (7 Aug 25) - More work on tempo with mid-irons, moved to wedges for the balance of the drill.
