So, tomorrow I am going to get a new hybrid, 19-20 degrees of loft. I don't know whether I should get the Adams Idea Pro, or the Titleist 585.H. I want something with some workability, a little forgiveness, and no offset. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In the bag:

Driver: F-Speed 12*
3 Wood: r7 draw
5 Wood: F-SpeedHybrid: a3 boxerIrons: Ignite 4-PWWedges: 53 Phil Rogers, vokey 56, 588 60Putter: Victoria or Puku belly

I'm was feeling the same way. I ended up getting the Titleist 585. I haven't received it yet, but looking forward to putting it in play. The main reason I went with the Titleist is because I've been very satisfied with all of my Titleist clubs.

I'm just curious: given your handicap, as well as the clubs already in your bag, why do you think you would do better with a club such as the 585.H than a Cobra Baffler DWS or a Callaway Heavenwood or X Hybrid? Have tried the 585.H or the Adams Pro, or any of the others I've mentioned? If you hit the Titleist or Adams clubs well, more power to you, but I'm just wondering if you've compared them to some somewhat easier to hit hybrids.

I have had a lot of success with my Sonartec hybrid. I replaced my 3 iron for my 200yd club and it has been awesome. When teeing it up on par 3's I get close to the same results than i did with my 3i but it flies a little higher. But let me tell you, out of the rough I am able to hit greens where it just wasnt possible almost at all with the 3i. The Sonartec is very consistent off the fairways and I have had it in the bag ever since..

I got the clubs that I have at the beginning of the year, when I was about a 30 handicap. I have taken lessons, and worked very hard, so now I am significantly less. I don't need much forgiveness, as they usually go very straight, but I want some workability to escape any trouble I might find myself in. The main thing is my putting, but I have a belly putter coming, so that will help, and I might be able to get down to a ten or so by the end of the fall.

    • It’s going to change but your basic setup feel should be about the same. Your body kind of adjusts to length and lie angle of the club. You’ll want to pay attention more to ball position as you change clubs more than how bent over you are. I understood what you meant from what your wrote.
    • Oh I probably was thinking the wrong thing or the wrong way when I typed the golf swing was more of a body swing (in my mind).  The in my mind part probably should have said in my opinion or based on what I have read.  Just meant the body needs to be involved more than the hands and swinging the arms while the core remains still.
    • The answer to this question is a very small change in impact can cause a BIG impact in direction. This is with the driver, but its similar with the irons... How much does an open or closed clubface affect your drives? | RoboTest Want to hit more fairways? The latest edition of GOLF's RoboTest highlights the importance of driver face angle. For a driver, 1 degree of clubface open or shut causes 10 yards of left or right. When you think the rate of closure for a golf club, how fast the club face goes from open (top of the golf swing) to square (at impact), 1 degree is a small quantity.  This means, when you are looking at video of your swing, you can see the exact same swing, but present the clubface in two widely separate positions. More so if you have swing faults. You can make the same backswing, but not get your weight forward well and hit a fat shot. You then react to this, try not to fat it so you thin it. Maybe the timing is off on the extension part of the downswing and you thin it slightly. Also, certain swing movements cause the wrists to flip at impact. The intent is still to hit the ball with the club. So your hands are going to adjust to find the ball. The more they have to adjust, the more difficult it is to repeat. Nope, it is way less mental than physical. If we could all think our way to a better swing, we would all be PGA tour players.  #GOLF IS HARD!  Beginners have repeatable swings, just bad repeatable swing. We all just need to make repeatable better swings.  The golf swing is a battle of making movements that allow the club to do good things. You results are from a bad swing that has a wider range of outcomes. Your outcomes are probably the following. Way more thins, fats, skulls than most. You hardly see PGA Tour players fat, skull or thin a shot.  The first principle of golf is FEEL IS NOT REAL. Meaning, we can feel things in the golf swing, yet it produces results or shows on video as something else.  You just set up to the ball. The club has a different length, so you need to adjust. For most your arms extend more out as you have a longer club. You also bend over less for longer clubs. It is just something you get used to. If you make a fist and stick your thumb out. You want that width from the butt end of the club and your belt buckle. Now, if you taller or shorter than most, then you may need to adjust the length of your clubs.    
    • At address? I think so. Downswing and through? IDK. I doubt if a whole lot of golfers, if any at all, deliberately think "I have a 9-iron so I need to bend half an inch more through the downswing compared to my 8 iron".
