For me I didn't like how short the face of the titleist is. That's the same reason I didn't like the i25. The titleist felt good but I had a lot of shots high up on the face.

I am the same, the taller the face, the more I like it. Also the more bulge/roll the less I like any hybrids/woods.

I purchased a x hot pro 3 wood recently as well and I'm very impressed with Callaway's woods. If I was in the market for a driver I think that's probably what I'd be scooping.

Yeah Callaway did a nice job with their X hot stuff. Enjoy, now you just need the snow to melt.

@Jakester23 the Adams V4 has officially changed my opinion of hybrids again and has kicked the X Utility out of the bag this year.  Have you had any change to try out the X2 hot hybrids yet?

I actually own 2 X2 Hot hybrids ha ha. I went to golfsmith (had a bunch of gift cards) and hit every hybrid they carried. I absolutely fell in love with the Callaway. It launches great but doesn't balloon. The thing I've noticed that I really like its how well it preformed on off center hits. I ended up getting a 19 degree and a 22 degree. So no more utility or 4 iron.

Very nice! Yeah I am sold on the hybrid again as well. It can be tough to find one that fits you but it is great when you do. The one I am using I think is Adam's Game Improvement one. :)

Try out the SLDR hybrid, the thing is a monster, I like the look. Hybrids can't bee too small for me, or too fairway woodish.

Right now I have a Adams Idea Pro A12 hybrid. I love the thing for when I need a go to drive on a short par 4. Its probably 80% chance hitting fairway with that sucker, love it.

The Pro A12 is nice, it's one of the only clubs that keeps sneaking back into my bag, if we could carry 15 clubs, it would never leave my bag.  I like it a lot off the tee, but not so much in deep rough.

I will give it a try sometime.  Right now I feel the same about the Idea V4.  It is kind of weird having a 4 iron and a 4 hybrid in the bag but the hybrid is longer than the 4 iron and more versatile.  I really like the face height of the V4.

We will have to hook up so you can give the callie a whack.

Will do.  I sure hope the courses will open soon.

I think mine is a 3 hybrid, and my longest iron is a 4 iron. I just wanted something with a bit more gap for me.

If money is not an issue then why not go to henry griffitts  get custom fitted and get yourself a 3 and 4 hybrid? it may not be cheap but they get custom built for you and you can have them adjust them so they can hit any yardage you need them to. I bit the bullet and got me hybrids from hg (first clubs i have gotten from them) couldnt be more happy with the results. they do exactly what i need them to do at exactly the yardage i use for them. just my two cents.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
