Just took my dad’s hybrid off his hands

So, I’m starting to practice golf a little more and I have been putting together a bag full of used stuff. Coming into today, the thing I was missing was a hybrid. My fiancée was gonna buy me one for my birthday, but we had some shippings issues with it, so we are trying to resolve that.

Anyways, I went to the driving range with my dad for the first time since practicing a little more (I played 18 with him and my uncle a week and a half prior on shorter tees and did better than I thought I would). I’ve been hitting my 6 and 7 irons very well and I consider them the best clubs in my bag since they’re the only things I can sorta hit straight.

Midway through my basket, I ask my dad if I could try his hybrid. It’s a Cobra Fly-Z 3-4 hybrid that my uncle gave to him a while ago and my dad can’t really hit well with that club. I figured I’d try it out since I was hitting my irons very well that day and I wanted see if my swing could translate.

Sure enough, the first swing I took off the deck, I hit the ball maybe like 180-190 dead straight. I’m in awe. I then hit another and get the same result. I think I hit around 30 balls and at least 10 of them were perfect, 15 had a slight accidental draw or fade, and then the remaining were duds. I’ve never hit golf balls that well before.

My dad just told me to keep the club because he can never hit it well to the point where he rarely uses it. Guess that saves me some money. This thing will be great for par 5s since I’m absolute trash with my fairway wood right now and I still can’t drive the ball that well. Fun day at the range.
