Gentlemen, I have a quandary.
I've been playing the 910H now for the past year or so with, to be honest, mixed results.
The regulars on here know I share Brendy's dislike of hybrids, however my had was forced when I brought the MP63's as I had quite a gap between my 3 iron and 4 wood, as you would probably expect. The 19° 910H bridges the gap nicely when it behaves, but it has far too many off days for my liking.
I used to find it easy to hit, however since taking lessons, the only consistent shot I seem to be able to hit with it is a booming, uncontrollable draw, border line hook. You know the one. The ball starts out to the right and moves left to, and past, your target . I've tried various changes to ball position and the like to improve/cure the strong flight to no avail.
Thing is, I hit my 3 and 4 irons either straight, or with a tiny draw with a medium to high flight. Just what I'm looking for. The flight, shape and distance are all semi-predictable, a complete contrast to the 910H.
I have more confidence in hitting the 3 iron from my set than a, supposedly, more forgiving, easier to hit hybrid.
To this end, I'm considering giving a 2 iron a trial.
A slight issue on this is that Mizuno don't offer a 2 iron as part of the MP63 line.
There are plenty of 2 irons kicking about on eBay from various manufacturers. Mizuno have plenty of offerings with prices ranging from £20-£50 with various models from the older TP series to the more modern MP offerings. There are also MP Fli-Hi and H4 hybrid clubs on in the same price bracket and availability.
What do you good people think? Worth a trial to see how it goes?
All opinions appreciated :thup:
