I had to build a box to house the 48” Cobra Long Tom Driver I sold! Down to only one driver not counting the Krank f11x head I’m selling or trading.

I built this 7 hybrid. I bought the head from Hurricane or DTG a few years ago. Ladies head, I had to take the sharpie to the lavender colored rubber slot insert. 😗
The head is geezer gray so it’s fine. As fine as playing a 7 hybrid can be. It’s a small head. Shorter blade than my TS2 7 iron. Playing length 38.5”.

I tried it out the other night on the course and it kicks my 7 iron’s butt for height and spin. And accuracy and forgiveness. I’m so much better and more comfortable with longer hybrids versus mid irons. I kinda hate that but whatever. I guess I’d better get over it.

    All about this. I have hybrids down through 6. I play the 5H right now because I'm hitting my 6 iron down very well. But the moment the 6i goes, I swap it for the hybrid. Nothing to be ashamed about. Play what works best.

        pike51 I remember when I put the 5 hybrid in the bag because I knew the 6 iron’s days were numbered. When the 5 hybrid flies higher and stops better than the 6 iron, that’s a real clue. I still carry the 6 iron sometimes but almost every time I can see that the hybrid is better.

        Our course has firm fast greens, so I need the stopping power of the hybrid.

            sdandrea1 blue, but @Spuzz deserves a break.

            LOL
            You gotta be you, of course, but you know, sometimes blue just doesn't work with some things.
            Red looks sharp with those heads, imo.

              I have some shafts curing in All Fit adapters.

                Yep, 7 hybrid. I took it back out of the bag. I think the 7 iron got the message, at least for now.

                    I have two 31 degree hybrids. A Cally and an Adams. They replace the 6i for me. My 7 irons are 34 to 35 degree lofts. The 31 hybrids are $!!

                      sdandrea1 what the hell's a break anyways? Just finished gripping. Still need to turn ferrules. Sorry Spuzz... I even threw on the shaft bands!

                          Put together a 29° EQ1-NX 6-hybrid (36.5") to most likely replace a 29.5° Sterling 7-iron. Couldn't resist matching the ferrule to the crown. Yes, like AdamMH, I too have yet to turn the ferrule.



                            May as well put today's build in this thread instead of the other one.....

                            Still fully curing, but set. I give you a Maltby KE4 Max 4i with KK shaft at 39" D1.5. Maiden voyage tomorrow,. 😉

                            Having trouble uploading pics....hopefully soon.
