Subject: New Hybrid Irons

I came across this website http://www.griagolf.com/gallery.html and am under the understanding that David Lake designed these hybrid irons. I've been playing my 1 Irons for years and wouldn't give them up if the Russian army showed up at my door.

David is the best club designer in the business so I ordered one set of the NOVA Hybrid Irons for my wife and another set for my father. The end result - MAGIC!!!! My wife can finally play golf and my father can give me a run for my money anytime.

I'm a little confused. These are all 38" so they are not adjusted to the user WTF. This is more like a standard 5 iron and whereas these have 61 degree lie, the 1 irons have 63.5 lie as I recall. and no sand wedge... interested to see scores from their use. I'd imagine they'd be great for someone just starting.
I've had my 1 irons for almost 3 years and still like them.

NOVA Hybrid Irons are designed to be played using a sweeping swing as you would with a conventional fairway wood or hybrid wood. When using a sweeping swing the club length and lie angle are not particularly important since you are barely brushing the turf with the sole of the club. Also, the soles of the NOVA Hybrids are well rounded from heel to toe to accommodate virtually any fairway lie as well as size of the golfer.

Iron play (as with the 1 Irons) is much different since you hit down and through the ball making full ground contact. When you make full ground contact the lie angle and associated club length (based upon your W-T-F measurement) needs to be precisely fitted.
