I do own an Adams V3 3H which I bought blind off eBay, but it has a regular shaft and my swing speed is just too fast for it! Although I seem to be consistently hitting 190-220 on the range with it, it is ballooning (I believe that is the term ) quite a lot! Having used my friends clubs, it was evident I need a stiff shaft as my swing is getting more consistent. I have only started playing again recently (I am 26 now, stopped at about 12 when my dad passed away) but everything seems to have come back relatively quickly and I have got the bug. There is nothing wrong with a rounded sole, it is just a style that fits some and might not work for others.Hello all! Been lurking a bit, but my first post!Īlas, after much thought, today I decided to drop some money into a 3H and a 3W, as I was in need of something beyond my 5 iron! I think this is why it hit so well out of the rough, but could dig a little more in other conditions. The reason is that the AMP cell hybrid has a more rounded sole from heel to toe. From the fairway and sand it had a tendency to dig a little more than other hybrids. From the other lies I had good success too, but it is slightly different from some other hybrids so I needed a couple adjustments. The smooth lines seemed to cut through the grass as well as any hybrid. This is one of the best hybrids out of the rough. I hit my 4 iron around 195 yards out of the rough and at times I really need that 210 mark to reach the green.

The long rough shots are some of the most critical for my game. I hit this hybrid out of every scenario imaginable and it really shined in each situation. The Cobra AMP cell hybrid is that perfect combo of forgiving size, yet compact shape. I think to be a versatile hybrid, the body needs to be compact. Typically a hybrid is called upon to hit shots off the tee, from the fairway, out of the rough and even in a fairway bunker. The grip and headcover are pretty standard stuff, a Lamkin REL 3Gen 360 grip and a long headcover with a cutout handle.Ī hybrid has to do more than a driver or 3-wood in terms of playability. If I concentrated on my tempo and control I hit this hybrid very well, but when I just went hard after the ball, it was a little wild. I think this threw off my swing a little with this club. It just says Cobra on it but the biggest issue is that it is only 58 grams in the stiff flex which is really light for a hybrid shaft. I think my consistency problems came from the stock shaft which I’m not really sure what it is. I wasn’t quite as consistent direction wise as I wanted with this hybrid, but the feel and trajectory were very consistent. Over the course of the next 4 rounds I started hitting the trajectory and distance I was looking for. It played how I normally play an 18* hybrid. I lowered the “My Fly” loft to 16* and now this club came to life. It had good distance, but like the driver and 3-wood the lofts seem to play higher than marked. I was hitting the ball very straight and very high. I started with it very stock neutral set-up and had great success. But the Cobra AMP Cell hybrid offers great playability. Great looks and great feel don’t necessarily mean great performance.
