I have a set of Nike Sumo2 Hybrid Irons with the set being 5,6,7 hybrids 8,9,P,A,S regular.  Now I'm a high handicapper but I hate these clubs... I know hybrids are supposed to be easier to hit than regular irons but I hit these like shit and they have no feel.  I have had a chance to hit regular iron sets (X-22, Cobra S3 and S3 max, Burner 2.0) all of which I hit better, have better feel and are more consistent with.


I've played rounds with all of the sets mentioned at one point and I definitely didn't notice any significant difference in them being easier on the body.

I wouldnt say hybrid irons are easier on the body but graphite shafts are.

If your long irons are stell shafted, and your hybrids are Graphite, as most are, then it will be a little easier on your body.  Also, in my experience, I got the most out of Hybrids when I learned how to swing with a slower tempo, while with the irons I fou8nd myslef trying to swing them harder - so that helped me as well.

My Bag:

  -- Cobra S3 Driver, 10.5 stiff

  -- Ping G15 17 Deg 4 W, Reg Flex Aldila Serrano

  -- Adams Idea Tech V3 Hyvrids - 3H, 4H, Bassara Reg Flex

  -- Callaway X Hot Pro Irons - 5-AW, PX-95, 6.0 flex

  -- Cleveland CG12- 56 Deg

  -- Odyssey XG Marxman Putter

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
