Hi-Tec Eagle Hybrid Golf Shoe

Advantages: Easy to strike, good ball control, flexible
Disadvantages: Cost

...Initially I was very dubious on the whole new revolution that is a hybrid club, despite friends telling me how good they are. Put simply a hybrid is a new type of club that is part-driver, part-iron and looks exactly like you'd imagine, the face is like an iron but the back of the club is a similar shape to a driver. I'd always thought of these clubs as a gimmicky-satellite tv shopping channel waste of money….. until I tried one. I had decided to change my irons so took a trip down to a local golf shop/driving range to try out the Callaway X-20's. After I'd hit a few shots with a Callaway X-20 7-iron I went back and spoke to the club pro about the problem I was facing. The only reason I wanted to buy a new set of irons was because I couldn't use my 'skinny' 3-4 iron effectively enough, the clubs offered so little forgiveness... Read review

...and their game but generally the technology between simialr models does not vary much. Because the Dh6 is now in last years collection they are available at a very worthwhile price and although you could pay double the price for a brand new model number it would not heed anything like double the success. One of these clubs will set you back anything from the £45 I found on eBay to the £79.99 price available from Online Golf. To conclude, I believe these hybrids to be a reliable source of success from positions where you would not be confident with a long iron. They are good from fairway and tee alike and are in a different league out of the rough.

I was sceptical at first but maybe hybrid is the future...... Read review

...I have been looking for practical, reasonably priced every day golf wear ever since being spoilt by my visit to New York in November 2002. On a visit to Norwich I found a lovely selection of Stylo golf clothes for ladies. I was tempted to purchase a pink & a black polo neck jumper and a pink bodywarmer.The polo necks were £14 and the bodywarmer £25. Today 23.09.03 they had their first outing in our ladies day. The clothes looked smart and fitted like a glove. I look for winter clothes to be light, easy to move in, easy to wash and dry but above all to keep you warm while allowing your skin to breath. These clothes appear to meet all these criteria and I will have to wait to see if they meet the test of time. The polo necks are made from 100% cotton and the bodywarmer 100% polyester unfortunately non of the labels inform you... Read review
