I will get another round in with this over the weekend.
When my shots go astray (more often than I'd like to admit) into the trees & have to punch out, I used to rely on my 2-iron. It has a nice straight, low loft, face & it was really easy to keep the ball low in order to get out of trouble. I'm having a bit of time adjusting to the hybrid as the club to use for this situation. It seems to get up in the air a lot quicker than I would like from out of the trees. I know, I know ... just don't hit it there to begin with. Regardless, I still have some work to do to adjust
Yeah it's definitely a work in progress.Definitely harder with a hot face and a hybrid’s weighting in my experience. Maybe set up with a really closed face (open stance to compensate)?
Going to drop a new hybrid shaft in the head this weekend.
I have been having a great time with the UST Mamiya LINQ hybrid, so figured I would try it in this one as well.
slightly heavier, but firmer in the handle, which I tend to like.Similar weight?

This has been my experience too! It launches so high for a 18° club. I’ve been enjoying the ball flight a lot since I’m mostly hitting into either par 3 or par 5 greens with it. They land so soft it’s great.Those shots are really launching high for an 18* lofted club. The shot in particular on 17 last night went right where the tree line is and carried the top of a very old oak that can act a bit like Dikembe Mutumbo on this hole.

Standard stiff. And I like it. It feels good, holds up pretty well, but for some reason I much prefer something pretty stiff in that club in my bag.Which Honma shaft did you have?
I use a bit of a forward press and then hit it like a hard chip shot. I would describe the feel as dead handing it. If I need a draw I move it back in my stance. Not really possible (at least for me) to slice it as that will elevate the ball flight.@DataDude - how do you approach and set-up that stinger shot?
Well this went over well. Thanks testers.Since this has mostly fizzled out, can each tester give a wrap up overview of what they found with the Honma Hybrid?
