Any recommendations for square/neutral (or slightly open) faced hybrids? I really don't need any help closing the face, in fact the last thing I need is more hook spin. I know the Titleist 585H has a square face, but I'd like to comparison shop.

Not much help, but I'd like to pick up the Titleist one of these days.

Read my reviews of the Titleist 585.H and the TaylorMade Rescue Dual TP.

We have some Bobby Jones hybrids up for review in a month or so, but right now those are the only "player" hybrids I can comment on (the two above).

What about the adams idea pro, that's not square faced? I was under the impression it was a players hybrid, and I didn;t think it had any offset, also used on tour.

I have the Adams A2 and I love them. I'm sure the new ones w/ the Aldila Blue shafts are nice as well.

Sonartec MD or Tour Edge Exotics CB2 are excellent choices and the ball flies off the face.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I cross-shopped the Titleist 585.H, TM Rescue TP, Adams Idea Pro and the Cobra Baffler Pro. Couldn't find the Sonartec or Tour Exotics around here. I ended up going with the Titleist. It felt really solid and I was able to get the low/mid trajectory that I was looking for.

I'm using PineMeadow's Excel Hybrid, the face is wide open...
