| New hybrid in the bag.... I took warbirdlover's advice and bought a Nickent 3DX DC 23*. UPS just delivered it today, so I haven't had a chance to hit it yet. Just looking at it, I like it.  It is just slightly longer than the 4 iron it will be replacing, and the head is small with a very slight roll and bulge, like a fairway wood. I'm hoping that will allow me to hit it straighter than my other hybrids that had a flat face.Heading to the range after work.

| Welcome to the club. Not sure I like mine any more or less than a 4iron but it works when I hit it correctly. Compliments my 5iron well as I can hit it a little longer than the 5iron and a higher flight. The 200 marker is the new 150.

| I have one swing thought with a hybrid... "Hit this 7iron 160"  I have trouble when I start trying to move it around in my stance. Hit it like a mid iron and it's gold. Good luck with it Doc. Keep us informed how it goes.

| Just a quick range session with it last night. My first swing with it was a pull hook. Second swing was a straight shot with just a touch of draw on it, about 185 yards. This club looks and feels great. And it makes a nice "whack!" sound on contact, not the "ting!" I was getting with some hybrids. I did hit some balls that were a little off line, both left and right, but no big hooks or slices. The only problem is that it hits maybe a touch too long. Maybe I can learn to dial it back a little, otherwise I'm going to have a 15-20 yard gap between this 23* and my 5 iron. My 5 wood is in danger of losing its place in the bag, if I can find a matching 20* for a good price.
