Taylor Made Golf- Rescue Mid Hybrid Iron/Wood Graphite

I just picked this up from Amazon.com. Used it Sunday and hope to take it out on the course again on Friday. Perhaps after a trip to the range, I’ll have enough feedback to write up a little review of the Taylor Made Golf- Rescue Mid Hybrid Iron/Wood Graphite.

I’ve never been a big fan of rescue clubs. The Taylor Made Golf- Rescue Mid Hybrid Iron/Wood Graphite still has not made me a big fan of rescue clubs. The Taylor Made Hybrid that I purchased is similar to a two iron in loft. I was thinking that it would be a good club to hit on my second shot into par 5’s. I think it would also be useful to keep the ball lows and get out of trouble under trees. I haven’t had much use for it off the tee as of yet. Perhaps a higher loft Taylor Made Rescue club would come in handy on more par 3’s.

I hit mine about 215 yards, and it does loft the ball much higher than a 2 iron. It is easier to hit than an iron but, in my opinion, not as easy to hit as a wood. I’ll keep working with it and keep you posted.

Update 3-23-08 I’m still not a huge fan of hybrid clubs. Perhaps, I should have purchased a higher lofted rescue club. I don’t use it off the tee much and rarely use it on other shots. It could come in handy as a good chipper though. I’ll look for more opportunities to use the rescue this season.
