Eye 2 1 iron
I20 17* hybrid
I20 20* hybrid
G20 5 Wood
Big Bertha Warbird 7 wood
Although an underrated long iron replacement that is more long iron than hybrid was the G2HL series that Ping made. I was thinking about trying out a G2HL 2 iron, but they aren't easy to find in acceptable condition.

Just because of the way courses are designed it's tougher to play them here, with the hilly ness we have.
Also I'm starting to lean more hybrid solely because of their versatility. A driving iron, you might hit what, 4 times per round? You can hit hybrids so many different ways and in so many different occasions.
I carry a 2 iron hybrid that I can carry about 240 to 250, so I hit it alot. But of course, I dont' play enough to play a driving iron right now.
I think they have some benefit, but for me right now, it just doesn't outweigh the positives of a hybrid.
