*Hybrid irons! Which clubs are better? Should I go hybrid irons or stick with what I have?*
@clemp30106 ай бұрын
I would like to see you play a full round with the hybrids. I couldn't afford the eleven hybrids, so I bought the lazrus set. I haven't played them yet, but I would like to see a good golfer like yourself play the hybrids. Not necessarily to replace your current clubs. Thanks for the great content!

I bought my Eleven hybrid irons a month ago. I am playing the best golf now in my life. They are so easy to hit! The biggest advantage is the mis-hits. Even with bad strikes the ball goes down the fairway instead of a few feet with my old irons. Now waiting for my Eleven driver and wedges. Eleven customer service is great!

I've now had a complete set of Elevens for about 20 rounds. I've shaved off 5 strokes and shot my 1st even par round in more than 5 years. These clubs are so comfortable and easy to control. What most reviewers fail to note is that all the clubs are shorter than comparable irons and other hybrids. They really are a blessing to me.

These ELEVEN irons really work. I have Callaway Paradym AI Smoke Max Fast woods and irons, Mizuno 923 HOT METAL IRONS, Titleist TSR 2 Driver, 3W and 5 Hybrid but I saw this from Alex and others so I orders an ELEVEN Hybrid 3 iron and received it yesterday. Took it to the range today and first hit it off the short grass and then off a short tee. WOW! SOLD me on buying the rest of the ELEVEN set 4-PW plus 3 wedges. I am 70 years old and golf is my hobby.

An excellent video. I’m a 23 handicapper who struggles to get irons airborne so I have been giving these hybrid irons some thought. I have watched a few reviews on them but the issue I have is they are all done by professional golfers who are always going to get the best out of them. What I would like to see is a review by a high handicapper (20+) to see what they think of them

I have played with hybrid irons for 17 years and my lowest handicap was 6.7 about 10 years ago. I'm 65 now. I still get comments for them before the round. But not after. At the moment I play with Callaway Rogue X hybrid set 4-8 and 9 + PW from my old Thomas Golf hybrids.

I play a full set of idrive hybrids, from 3 thru lob wedge(I leave out the SW). I also carry a Bang 21 wood. Even with that you still need a regular sand and lob wedge to use around the green. Single digit HC by the way. You can work these clubs right and left the same way as irons.

I had the Elevens for 6 months, found the longer hybrids poor quality. I now use driver, 3 wood, 7 wood set at 5 to open it, 2 hybrid and 5 hybrid (Ai Smoke), 7-GW in game improvement and Vokey 54 and 60, much improved gapping, and as i play a windy golf course, it gives me different flight options. A pal who also purchased the elevens, low single figure golfer swears by them, but is gradually integrating traditional clubs into the bag. Problems with rough, short game, flight options were increasingly an issue. So in my view work out which clubs you struggle with, and try the hybrids, but inside 130 yards traditional irons are more flexible, or at least we found that to be the case.
@edwardtalerico90414 ай бұрын
I'm new to golfing. One of the first videos I watched was on RAM hybrid irons. Because I don't play that often, I didn't want to spend a ton, so I bought the set of hybrids. I've finally gotten my swing under control. When I hit them, they fly! My only question is ball placement. I don't know if you need to place them more forward or keep the ball more center to right of center

I have a set of Eleven hybrid irons 5-PW that I played for over 2 years. Also have 2 Cobra single length at 21* and 24* with 7-PW custom irons. I like both sets. I hit the irons further, straighter and higher than the Eleven 7-PW. The Cobra 24* is just slightly longer than the 5 in the Eleven set and the Cobra is workable (draw or fade). This leaves me with a small gap in my clubs for distance but I can hit a 3/4 shot on the Cobra 24* to replace the distance on the Eleven 6. Age 76, index 10.8.

Ping usually start the G430’s at six when selling sets. Lofts are so strong there’s no need for a five iron. Better off putting a hybrid in the bag.

I appreciate your reviews especially hybrid irons. I tried the Elevens but after two range sessions, they were no better than the Wazaki hybrid irons. I got the Wazaki hybrids due to a sore shoulder. My regular irons, though forgiving, were causing me pain if not hit properly. The Wazakis were better than I could believe even though they look strange. So I tried to return the Elevens but you can’t if you remove the packaging. So I sold them and got most of my money back. Disappointed because the Eleven hybrids are well made. The KBS shafts are great and the grips are ok. The lack of a chance to test them is difficult since they only are in UK (I’m in US). I had high hopes for the Elevens. KZbin influencers who are teaching pros or much better golfers have been high on the Elevens for the last few months. But they can hit any club well. Yet they all say how much they enjoy the Elevens but will not game them. So I’m sharing my experience as I am convinced that I need to move to all hybrid clubs to replace my irons except wedges. The new Paradym Fast Max 7 & 8 hybrids are fantastic. I wish they made the 9&pw. The Paradyms are 3 times the cost of the Elevens is the only downside. Again love your reviews and instructions.

@stephenfowler41156 ай бұрын
To many definitive conclusions from too small a data sample. Because the 7 iron is two clubs shorter than the hybrid doesn't make hybrids a better choice. What's critical in a set is consistency, predictability, and dispersion. You need to have consistent distance between clubs in a set. Dispersion as small as possible. And predictable results. Just hitting it further is only valuable in a driver. Every other club is used to fill a gap. So the clubmaker tunes the set to produce the smallest gaps possible.
