Easiest to hit hybrid for a 15 handicap player – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members have been discussing hybrids for a 15 handicap player. WRXer ‘RickeyG’ is looking for an easy to hit hybrid and reaches out to fellow members who have been sharing their thoughts in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- xkilgorextroutx: “Don’t sleep on the new Cleveland hybrids and the Hy-wood, as noted above. Getting a lot of really good reviews, and are priced decently.”
- JosephNewton293: “Ping G410 in hybrids or fairways are my money clubs. That being said, I still have 3 Ping Anser hybrids that I refuse to get rid of. Easy to hit and cheap. The only other dirt cheap hybrids that are idiot proof are the Nickent 3DX iron woods. OMG these things were money.”
- Shanker84: “Not a great ball striker by any means, and the TS2 is crazy easy to hit. Adjustability is a huge benefit too.”
- pt71658: “G410s have been a game-changer for me.”

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

I agree on the Nickent 3DX IronWood hybrids. I own the 1 through 5 heads. I use only the 2 and 3. They are EXTREMELY easy to hit and long. I also own the Callaway Big Bertha 815 Alpha 2 and 3 hybrids which are equally easy to hit.
