It's time to add another hybrid

[SiberianDVM]

After having a difficult time with my 3 wood and 5 wood from the fairway and rough this weekend, I have decided it's time to get a hybrid replacement for the 19* 5 wood. The 3 wood will get replaced with the 17* 4 wood for more height off the fairway.

So I will be buying another Nickent 3DX Ironwood DC, probably in 20*. Unfortunately, they are hard to find with a regular flex UST V2 shaft, so I will surely have to have it reshafted.

If anyone has a 20* that they want to sell, I'm ready to buy.

GPP has the new 4DX on sale right now. $127.

NICKENT 4DX Utility

R35

Thanks, Rock, but they only have the UST SpeedRated shaft. I tried that shaft on the 23° and did not like it. So any club I get will have to be reshafted with the V2 to the tune of $100.

The Nickent "Utility" is a bigger head (more like a fairway wood) then the "Ironwood" that plays like an iron.

3DX Ironwood DC in 20° please. The shaft is not of primary importance
but a V2 in regular flex is what I play.

And I may be looking for a 17° later, so if you run across one of those.......................

i'll see what i can do. hopefully the Nickent promotion at work isn't over yet.

i didn't know they made two types (the ironwood, and the utility) so first i'll have to check and see which we carry. i know my specific store had a 2h/ 17* and a 4h/ 23* . so if we indeed do carry the model you're looking for and i can get one transferred from another store you should be in luck.

i'd been liking the looks of these so if i can get my hands on one, you'll have to accept one slightly used


what do these go for retail?

I think the 3dx is 59.99 and the dc is 129.99 on tgw right now

Pay no attention to the young guy behind the curtain. We old people have to stick together...

Hybrids are the bomb.
Softer shafts when possible.
Low-compression ball

Have no fear. Feel no guilt...

He says as he swings his pink bang-o-matic driver with "L" flex.

Comparing my 4 hybrid to the 4 iron is a joke, I hit the iron well even in the rough, whereas that damn hybrid just laughs & mocks me.

[Youngun5]

i google imaged what you said you were looking for, and that's not the same club i'm thinking of at all......my bad, doc.

[LeftyHoges]

There's a buttload of 3DX DC's on the bay at the moment with V2 STIFF shafts if you were game to have a go at one of these. All selling for under $100.

Well, at least I can say I'm manning up and not hitting a 19 wood or a shaft whippier than a garden hose.
