Hybrid help

i want to get a hybrid to replace a 3i. i would like it around $160 or less. so i was wondering wat hybrids do u think are good at around 160? Also whats better, or whats the big difference in a hybrid with a graphite or a steel shaft?

Callaway Heavenwood.

thing is great out of any lie, is long and straight, and very forgiving believe it or not.

for a 3i replacement i'd either go with the 3h which is 20* or the 4h which is 23*

alot of people have luck with the callaway heavenwood - but I've never been able to hit any callaway product well - don't know why - I think it stems from trying to kill the original Big Bertha.....

anyway, $160 will buy you alot of hybrid - i have a Titleist 585 on the way to me that I picked up for ~$50 and an Infiniti Assure hybrid that'll only run ~$70 brand new

for a 3 iron replacement, I think the shaft should match your irons, unless you're willing to go up in loft, then maybe try graphite to get back that distance to avoid any gaps

May I suggest that you type "Hybrid" (without the quotation marks) in the SEARCH engine. You will get more opinions than you want.
