Any of you guys try the M890 hybrids?

fatshot Thanks for the offer but I'm only interested in trying the new stuff. I have a stash of older stuff.

Any new comments now that a few more may have tried them. More importantly any for sale or trade😁

bad9 I may break down and try one soon. The KE4 TC is nice, but not sure it's a keeper. I've only loved 2 hybrids: OG Cleveland Halo and a Nakashima NX1. My Cally XR16 OS hybrids were nice, but then the faces flattened. Callaway sent me Rogue X replacements, but they don't seem to work anywhere near as well for me.

KCee did you ever try out an M890?

bad9 did you ever try out an M890?

No I didn't. I would like to try the 21* because I demoed a Cally hybrid that looked very similar and I was hitting it great. I picked up some distance this year and have been hitting my Rogue X 5 hybrid so well that I haven't worried about a 3-4 hybrid. Might be a winter project once it's snowy and I'm bored.

I won't get to hit it until next year but I did have an M890 5h head show up today. Its a little bigger than expected but that's not a bad thing. L-R is a KE4 Tour TC 4h, M89-05h, 23° KE4 UW

bad9 If it was earlier in the season I'd order an M890 3h right now. The KE4 UW looks interesting too.

KCee I liked the 21 better than the 23 and not hook faced as my pic makes it appear.

bad9 how's the forgiveness?

ode I actually found UW to be pretty forgiving. I thought the deep face might be difficult for me off the fairway but it really wasn't and was very nice off the tee. For some reason I found the 23 easy to block right. I might try it in a different configuration next year, got our first snow this week😧
