I thought Hippo golf had long since been 'gone'.
Imagine my surprise to see their new Website.
I wanted to try an Iron that was Softer than senior flex but not a lightweight graphite. I rang and spoke to their Tech guy. They built me a 7 iron steel FST 115 shaft in senior /ladies flex.
The club turns up and its SENSATIONAL! Great quality that, at address could be a TM M6 iron or a Titleist GI offering.
Off to simulator and this club is everything I wanted.
Here's where it gets exciting, full set of custom built clubs, 5-SW Inc delivery is £174!!!

What, I hear you say, they must be cheap crap knock offs... But they're most definitely not.
Built and delivered in 5 days.

? Big thumbs up to Hippo for some sensible prices and unbelievable service in this crazy world.

Quality shafts too.
3 to PW in the blades, just a little disappointed that they're not showing any specs for the lofts etc, but they can't be ridiculously strong if a 3 iron is included....?

The website certainly needs an overhaul.

The irons I bought, the 7 iron is the same as TM M6 28.5 degrees.

The blades do look fantastic.
I actually bought the 50 deg wedge from the 'Radar' forged range to act as a gap wedge, and like the other clubs it's superb. Lovely soft feeling.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the 7 iron in the blades is 32 degrees.

I wish you well in your resurrected venture!

The Hippo Driver I acquired in the late 90s was certainly fun to use.
