Sent my Callaway xr clubs back.  Bought some Cobra Fly Z used irons that look like new.  Really like the way they look.  They have senior shafts in them which I am convinced I need now.  I have trouble with my left shoulder and I just don't have the swing speed.   I am going to buy some hybrids to go with the irons.  I have a 6 through pw.  I'll probably  get  a 3,4 and 5 hybrid..  I am looking at some Taylor Made M1's at Callaway Preowned in my price range.  They also have some M2's in my price range also.  Anybody use these or could recommend another hybrid.  They make so many.

I haven't been on a swing monitor in years.  We only have one golf shop here where I live.  I may go in tomorrow and see if he has time to let me get on his monitor adn check at least my swing speed.  I was watching a video on youtube and the guy was demonstrating a couple of different swings on a monitor.  One of the swings he said was 87 and the other 84.  I would say I am nowhere close  to that from what I could see on the video.   It's hell to get old.

Anyway has anyone used the M1 or M2 hybrid.

I have a FlyZ 4H hybrid that works for me. It has a 72-gram Senior Flex shaft. Gives me good pop at impact, but is heavy enough I can feel it throughout the swing.

Cobra long clubs tend to have heavier stock shafts than most other companies. If you like the Fly Z irons, see if you can find any FlyZ or FlyZ XL hybrids. (the XL hybrids have somewhat lighter shafts).

I would suggest you test out and hopefully get fitted for the hybrids you want. Launch monitor time is a good start.

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • Feel like you are left side dominant. Keep the back of your glove running through impact. Keeps leading edge down without digging. You will pick them clean with some zip if the grass is nice and generally acceptable results off anything less than ideal. Works with both hingy or dead hand pitches and chips.
    • Day 52 (30 Apr 26) - Had planned a solo round, got invited to be part of trio that included a fmr mini tour pro.  Was fun playing back a set of tees and having to stay in my game plan. Both were very engaging and encouraging in the round.  A good day in working through and making smarter shot choices. 
    • Day 576 - 2026-04-30 Put my playlist on and slowed down a little as things were meh. Mostly got to an exaggerated P6 and hit from there.
    • I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property. 
    • Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."
