TaylorMade R15 Hybrid reviewed by Mark Crossfield PGA professional AskGolfGuru. Mark hits the R15 from TaylorMade golf and talks about how its new low spin model could help your golf game or not. Getting these golf clubs fit for your game is key to understanding your performance and this review shows you why.
It was nice to hear your comment about getting 2 or 3 Hybrids. I’m a new
golfer and found it hard to hit under a 6 in a way that I could rely on. So
I’ve ended up with a 3 and 5 Hybrid and they fill the distances I need and
have given me a lot more consistency than I had. Getting the 5 Hybrid was a
little humbling though, the guy in the shop asked me if that was actually
what I was after and then struggled to find the one club they had in a 5.
It’s helped me enjoy my rounds a lot more and in the end, that’s why I
play.
My hybrid (913 set at 17deg) is my favorite club in the bag, i can smash it
to rival a three wood, or take some off to replace my 3/4 iron, love it. I
personally think that there is still a stigma about hybrids, you only use
one cos you can’t hit your long irons, and i can’t, CONSISTENTLY . But i
can with me 913h. Ego should have no place in golf, they are out there, use
em. Cheers Mark
Interesting rational Mark and not a bad club I think. Well I love my 4 iron
(160 yards) and I love my 20deg 3 hybrid (180 yards) its my 15deg 3 wood i
am having trouble with, it should be hitting about 200yards to gap to my
driver but, it is little better than the hybrid. I have no idea why the 3
wood is so poor but that is my main project this spring, to squeeze an
extra 20 yards out of my 3 wood. My guess, based on your previous comments
is that I may just not be strong enough to hit it well, perhaps its not
launching well enough. Well there is nothing I can do about that, as i get
older I will get weaker not stronger. We shall just have to see. Has
anybody else had this trouble? If I cant increase the range I will just
dump it and have just a driver and hybrid in the bag, which isn’t really a
big deal as that was my setup when carrying last winter.
I took your advice when you analysed your 4 iron on game golf and switched
out to a 23 degree hybrid. My hybrids are my favourite clubs in my game and
I’d never bring a 4iron back now!!! So thankyou for the advice you gave
Better to buy a hybrid around your irons rather than with the woods. Ping
have the right idea
Hi Mark, cracked me right up with the hybrid comment ‘its a 3 one…’ i get
loads of these responses working in a pro shop. Just tickled me, also
bought one of these beauties. Feels more like a driving iron style hybrid
which works for me. Very versatile as you said, great review 🙂
I’ve never used that style of hybrid. I wonder if the high toe would be
more forgiving on strikes near the toe? I currently use one of Adams super
hybrids which is more of a 5 wood replacement. My 4 iron is still OK, but I
may have to replace it sooner than layer.
Like if you think mark should get flightscope. So we can how a “good shot”
looks like
Hybrid all day, because hitting a 3 iron seems impossible!
Good points about getting hybrids to suit your gaps Mark. Any chance of
reviewing the newer version of the Mizuno JPX Fli-Hi. Thanks
Very like my R11 Hybrid…nice looking club!
Loving the videos, as per. Crossfield always delivers
Why would a hybrid not fit in your bag?
Does it have the same heavy head weight as the r11 hybrid
