Just about to give up on my G20's (20* and 23*).  As my iron shots continue to get better and better, those are either stagnant or worse.  I never thought I'd see the day where I'm more consistent with my 4i than my 4h, but that day seems to have arrived.

I'm thinking about trading in the G20's for a 19* RBZ and sticking the 4i back in the bag.  Anyone have any insight on comparing the two?

Sorry, I don't have the Ping G20 to reference... But I do have the 3H RBZ 19* Stiff... And stopped carrying it.  I snap hook about 90% of the shots with it.  It is strange because when I first purchased it - I was hitting it straight.  And my misses were just lower trajectory - but still straight.

But I've been working on swing changes for the last several months and something with my weight shift is off - and the club just feels foreign in my hand.  I believe I just need to get an upgraded shaft (something heavier and stiffer)... But I don't want to spend more money on this club as the other thing that I don't like about the 3H RBZ is that when it is soled at address - the face is open.  I guess I should've paid more attention to that before I bought it?  But now that I have it - I really do not like the way it looks at address.

If you want to buy my RBZ - I'd be happy to sell it. (joke) Seriously though... I'm going to trade mine back for a Rescue 11 TP 3H 19*.  I have the Rescue 11 TP 5H - and love it.  So I'd like to think the 3H would be well suited for me.

So i went out at lunch planning on trading the G20's for the RBZ...decided to hit it first and...about 90% of my shots were low hooks.  Funny how that works.  So, the hunt continues.

I have the RBZ hybrid 19 degree stiff as well and love it.  My friend just bought an adams and its amazing I'd buy one of those in a heartbeat but there a little on the pricey side go hit a few adams and you will love em I guaranty it.

Which Adams are you talking about? I hit the a12 OS Idea and it was probably one of the best hybrids I've ever hit.  Only reason I didn't pick it up is they didn't have it in the flex I wanted.

I've actually never considered Adams, decent company/products?

OP, I wrote a review on the RBZ hybrid, go read it.

I personally like it, but I needed a stiffer tipped shaft, so instead of the stock re ax shaft, I grabbed a Matrix Altus.

But yes... RBZ 4Hybrid Tour for me = 243-249yds , and much easier to hit than my 3W off the deck.

    • Day 22: mirror work for a while. Working on my elbow in the downswing - keeping it in a better position. 
    • Day 36 (16 Dec 25) - continued the exaggerated left foot weight shift trigger adding some easy low flighted pitches with the 5h and a few putting style bump and runs with the 5h as well.
    • Day 442 - 2025-12-16 Got some swings in at an indoor academy a little south of Erie.
    • Has anyone played the new Maxfli forged irons? For the first time in I don't know how many years, they have come out with new clubs. From what I read, Maxfli was bought by Taylor Made a long time ago which then took all of their ball making technology and patents in order to get into that market. The club business was left to whither and the reorganized company, now a part of Dicks / Golfworks / Maltby, is producing these new clubs. (Their Tour X balls which I play are really good.) Anyway, I tried them both out at Golf Galaxy. There's a player's distance iron (XC-3) and a blade (XC-2) and both feel really, really nice, almost "Mizuno-like" in their soft buttery feel and they're a bargain at $800 for a set. I'm planning to ditch my Titleist's and want to go back to a forged iron. I almost pulled the trigger on the Mizuno Pro-245's last summer, but a damaged tendon sheath in my finger combined with a back injury messed up my golf game so I held off. Now the Pro-245's are no longer available, soon to be replaced by the MX-15. (At twice the price of the Maxfli's...that's what got my attention in the first place.) If anyone has played with the new Maxfli's or just tried them out like I did, let me know what you think.
    • Day 126 12-16 Back swing and rotation work today. Didn't hit any balls. Focusing on rotating and getting to lead side.
