Oh I'm using a 4 i

Thank you MVMAC. They feel like butter soo far. The ball just seems to explode off of the face upon impact with a nice high and straight ball flight.

Yeah, the only point we were making with the 4i is that, for higher handicap players like me and, based on your stated handicap, you, is that the iron vs. the hybrid decision usually resolves to hybrid because while we can hit the 4i, it's a lot harder to hit consistently and since you're probably hitting into a green with that club, you're making it harder on yourself to hold the green because irons will come in lower than hybrids and have a tendency to run out more. So I myself can hit a 4 iron, but if I had one, I'd just use it on the range for practice because it requires me to hit it well, and I'd bag a hybrid on the course. I think that's the crux of what the others were thinking who made mention of the 4i vs 4h issue.

I dont use a 4i. I use a UDI 20. Driving ironish 42 inch club. 20° as I recall. I tee off on par 5s and if I am lucky I can pull it out on the second shot and birdy. Also useful for screwed up tee shots on par 4s. I like 3 and 4 irons, but they are too heavy a head to use on a longer better shaft. The makers are turning out some real cool designs. Maybe just focus more on the shots you want to make.

    • Day 39: did top golf for an hour with the family. It was fun but also not really like real golf at all. Also did some mirror work - working on the backswing stuff mostly. 
    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
