Im generally around a 5 hdcp and heavily considering putting one of these in the bag. I tend to be a low launch/low spin player so having a club that launches high spins high and flies straight is quite a draw.
I'll be honest I've thought about ditching my 5 Iron for a 5HY for this exact reason. I can still hit it but it is getting harder for me to generate the speed with my back, Hybrids are easier although not very "cool".
I think the price tag is why people are not playing it .plain and simply put they have priced themselves out the hybrid market no matter how good its is .
Hi James love your Video 👍, 2months ago got a TSR1 Driver, 2weeks later got the 5Wood, 1week later got the 5Rescue, 1week later got the 6Rescue😁, All with the Speedmesh light weight shafts, I’m delighted with there performance👌, Thinking of getting the 4Rescue🤔I think that Titleist have got the light weight build “spot on” With the TSR1 Range, perfect for my 80mph swing speed👌, Dickey 9hcp 76year senior golfer
I'm 72 and put a 5 hybrid TSi in my bag a year and a half ago……..its a go to club for me. I can only carry it about 170 which for a couple of par 3's on home course is money.
You’ll see that in my bag. 60yr old 18 h/c. 5 hybrid set to A1. MMT 50g standard length Reg flex shaft. Also got the 5 wood set to 1 deg lower. Bloody love them both.
Hi James, could I ask a question ? I am a very, very very slow swinger ar around 70 mph. What would teoretically be the best Club from the fairway for pure distance ? I am considering a Heavenwood but is a normal wood or a hybrid better ?
I have 2 Callaway Epic Super Hybrids and an Apex 21 hybrid for my long iron replacements. Great options for a lower-price hybrid option if you can find them.
Great review! 👍I got 2 titleist hybrids a couple of years ago, second hand, 913 model. 19 and 21 lofted up to 23. Best purchases ever. Forgiving but I can sufficiently shape and vary trajectory.
$300 for a new hybrid? Nah. I picked up a used 2015 Callway Big Bertha 5 hybrid, I love the way the ball jumps off the face of that, i can hit it anywhere from 175-210 yards depending on how I go after it… I'm gonna pick up a matching 3 soon, the club just agrees with me.
I love Titleist, but I'd never spend that on a hybrid.
I carry 3 hybrids. 21, 24, and 28 degrees. The two lower lofted come from Cobra and the 28 is a Wilson D9. That Wilson almost gave me an ace last night from a high draw swing played a touch back in my stance. It flies high enough to clear mature pine and Cyprus trees from closer than you'd think but still carries 180 for me. And that Wilson only cost me 72 bucks including custom shaft, grip AND shipping.
Sorry pal, love you to bits but did you really say your 5 iron is a 200yard club? Ive seen you hit your 4 iron less 😂😂 seriously hope your boys doing really well👍
I went for a Mizuno club fitting and walked away with 2 of these, Hyb 5 and Hyb 6, they are the DBs !! Slow swing for me and still hit 181 and 174 yards.
Thank james, i paused video at looking at the numbers , first of all thank you for not saying it really checks all the boxes omg i hear that one more time, mid HC dont have boxes , we swing and pray for a good strike, people ask me how good are you at golf and my statement is when i drive the ball and its a good hit im shocked happy but shocked, lol come on get honest with outselves, great game ,love it but full time jobs if not 2, families a home, yeah ok ,,we have time to practice maybe once a week lol ! anyway i have this club in my bag its up against Cobra king tour, king tec idk somemany different names on these clubs, the Cobras very hard to beat just my testing, this line of Tietilist TSR1 are very light in wieght ,they say that it might give up more swing speed, with a few more inches on lenth of shaft, which i found harder to find the middle! please compare the 2 if you can, the Cobra is very impressive, adjustability, 3 wieghts on the sole, idk Cobra is over looked in some category, thats all james who cares what i have to say anyway, the people are watching you , great Content!
After watching your video yesterday, I went to the pro shop at my club and tried the TSR1 hybrid. The shaft was 40”and I set it at 22°. It was extremely easy to hit. It launch highand carried much further than I expected with that high. I was carrying it 175 yards and I am 78 years old. Great recommendation.

That Looks awesome

very much like the callaway heavenwood
while it is impressive, i'll keep my trusty 7 wood… #naturalballstriker
Love the look of this! Titleist is #💷 though 😢
I use the TSi1 4 & 5 hybrids for all the reasons you just said. I am a high handicap senior golfer and it is perfect for me.
Yes James do something on hybrids and could you do something on woods like 5,7,9 and witch ones are the best
The settings on the hybrids are different than the woods. A4 actually increases loft by 2 degrees
I carry 4-7 hybrids, they awesome. Mizuno Fli-Hi JPX are excellent iron replacement clubs.
Give it to your dad to hit!

I'd love to see you do a comparison between all current hybrids. I currently have 6 and 5, but looking at getting another 4.
I think the price tag is why people are not playing it .plain and simply put they have priced themselves out the hybrid market no matter how good its is .
Ping G430 HL is IMHO the best and is my cheat club. consistency of getting 165-170yds is epic.
Only concern would be hit it that high when there is any wind and that's not going anywhere.
Also should be said the shafts are fairway shafts not hybrid (0.335 vs 0.370)
ping hybrids ftw
Are you going to just compare new forgiving hybrids or are you going to add a few older models in that are available at good prices?
If you ever need someone to toe-swipe the bollocks off just about any club, I'm your man! 😂😂

Just had 18 & 24* TSR2 hybrids delivered…..can’t wait to get them out on the course!!!
Would you compare it to Callaway's UW?
You don't see them in a lot of bags because they cost twice what the Cleveland Hy-Wood cost, with nothing gained for that cost…..
I'm 72 and put a 5 hybrid TSi in my bag a year and a half ago……..its a go to club for me. I can only carry it about 170 which for a couple of par 3's on home course is money.

Not that's one of the best deals in golf.
Love my tsr2 driver. Looking to change my 425 hybrid. So maybe……..
I wish you’d get a high handicapper to demo these. No offence but anything in your hands is gonna be striped.
A lot of people probably have slept on Callaway Apex UW. Used by pros like Mickelson and Xander and yet easy enough for mid handicappers like me.
Great review James, are you going to test the TSR 1 fairway and driver
Sorry pal, love you to bits but did you really say your 5 iron is a 200yard club? Ive seen you hit your 4 iron less 😂😂 seriously hope your boys doing really well👍
My Wilson d9 launch pad works a absolute treat
i got rid of my 4 iron for a ping g410 7 hybrid and i have a slow swing speed 👌
Jesus Christ..£240 for a hybrid.. ludicrous price..I wanna play half decent, not have to sell a kidney to a club .stoopid Titleist
Looks good but $300 per? Pass
6, 5, 4, 3 Apex hybrids in the bad and wouldn't trade them for anything!
I just dont see how technology can keep improving clubs at this point. I have a sldr 3 hybrid I game and i cant find a reason to replace it.
I went for a Mizuno club fitting and walked away with 2 of these, Hyb 5 and Hyb 6, they are the DBs !! Slow swing for me and still hit 181 and 174 yards.
Love my Ping g425 hybrids
because its 300 dollars !! Why? thats your reason!!! period.. Thats insane for a freakin hybrid. Stupid

Hi James, I own one of these and you are correct these are totally brilliant 👍👍
