These are at the top of my list . I'm a 69 yr old player that didn't play for 6 yrs ( health , life etc.). Now getting back and finding myself a senior player . I've had Taylor Made SLDR's since '13 , not working for me . Leaning towards these to keep me in the game. Thanks for your vid's , always great . Play on !
Get some Cobra s9...easy to hit and long
I use the Cleveland Halo XL irons and these Elevens look even EASIER, which makes golf more fun! 😀😀
Best thing I did was to include a full hybrid set.
Do what you gotta do to keep playing ! ❤
Not trying to necessarily steer you away from Eleven, but just looking at their site clubs are going for ~$115 a piece. The Wilson Launch Pads, Cobra T-Rails, and Cleveland Launcher XL Halos all have a similar form factor and have been out for a few years and so might be available pre-owned.
I remember about 12 years ago a good player from a rival highschool team started playing “hybrid irons” when they first came out I think the brand was Idea. Kid miraculously started playing really well and everyone hated him and called him a cheater for using them cus they were so damn easy to hit. In reality everyone wanted to try them and were just jealous 😂
My takeaway is that Mr Shortgame needs to add hybrids to his set.
I shared your review of these clubs with a guy I know that is 75. He plays 3-4 times a week. He purchased a version of these and told me that he played better than he had in years and had a better time playing due to the ease of the clubs. I have a feeling a better set like the ones you used would produce even more happiness. Thanks for sharing and making golf more fun for those older players who want to keep playing as long as possible.
This is the 2d review I've seen of these unique irons. Good stuff! Thanks Matt!!🎉
MSG, awesome vids in general, this one is off the charts. I'm 73 have gone though some Medical stuff, playing my Cobra's, practice with my blades. I'm a pragmatist so I think for my age these might be a good idea. Thanks!! I heard about these clubs before but your great video hit home.
Ok. Back from range. OMG. Great results. Easy to hit as long as you swing a little easier. 5 hybrid was flying 185. 4 hybrid over that. Not sure on the distance but it was a bit more piercing ball flight. I’m 56 and haven’t had my 4 or 5 iron in my bad for a while.
Ordered and received their 4 and 5 hybrids and taking them out to the range this morning. Thanks in advance
You had the perfect chance to make use of some great alliteration on the first hole! Perfectly perched! Next time 😂! Great review! It's nice to know that in a year to few years I'll have an easy to hit option like these. I'm 57 ans still using regular weight x100's. Yesterday was my first outdoor range session of the year and I really had to work at swinging them. Still love their dispersion, but I could use a little help. I'm not quite ready to give them up yet. It is good to know these are out there.
Nothing but love on the commentary 😜 Mr sg...
Par elevens ! U said😂🎉
2:35 Brilliant, never thought about that. I have a 7 hybrid. Using it as a chipper would help me around the fringes.
Those are great ! I carry a TM 3, and 5 hybrid. I still carry my 5 iron, but if I need that distance from a less than ideal lie, I'll hit the hybrid.... it's definitely a high confidence shot compared to the iron
Great review. I’m 73 but still hit and control current JPX 923 Pro’s decently. Distance is still good although at my age I’ve lost a little distance. The lofts on the 923’s help to gain the distance back compared to previous set of JPX 800 Pro Forged . New 7 iron is 29 loft while older set was 34 degrees. Don’t know if I would ever change to clubs like the Elevens because I can hit irons decent.
I'm 65. Playing golf since age 12. Today I am a 14 handicap. I have had three back surgeries, left shoulder rebuilt, and more. Several years ago, I built a hybrid set myself with Bang heads. I made the change to senior graphite shafts. If I had more plying time or practice time, I could shave a few strokes off the handicap, but life happens, work, etc. This type of head design has helped me a lot. I can't turn like I once did. Easy clubs to hit solidly almost every time, if I am paying attention. If you do not know your swing speed, you may want to get it verified. Yes, the senior shafts for me, gave me back a nice ball flight and distance. That was a huge game improvement for me. Make the new tech work for you.
As a former student of your's from your California days I can attest to having a hybrid set when you're a higher handicap player. I purchased a set of KZG hybrids a year ago and it really changed my game. The Eleven hybrids have stronger lofts than the KZG so I bet they go a little further. the only thing I would say is that they sometimes are a bit harder to hit out of the rough but I'm consistently breaking 90 and having more fun then when I was playing Ben Hogan Edge Irons. If you need any help testing those for the average Joe send them my way haha. Great to see hybrids getting a little more attention. Lets make golf more fun!
I own these 5-PW and have had them for over 2 years. Bought them when they first were available. Great clubs for seniors, at age 76 my index is 10.8. Mine do not have the KBS shafts as they were not offered when I purchased.
Really looking at 3-6 from
Elven for the top end of my bag. I have always struggled with long irons
Love the vids!!!
Also the simulator is awesome
I had seen these 3-4 months ago on CZcams. UK made & 1) hybrid heads have lower center of mass, & loft ball better with slow head speed. 2) rounded sole gets thru poor/heavy lies better than irons. 3) shafts a bit longer may also help carry distance. 4)Sustaining a golf habit, rather than quitting & junking 20 year old clubs is worth your money! 5) Graphite shafts are for certain!
Great review. Could you review the Lazus hybird irons. They are like the elevens 4-pw but are 370 dollars
Been looking at these. I am now 70 and need some help. Think you made up my mind.
Saw Rick Shiels play a similar round with a full set of hybrids. These look like a nicer set than what he used. I think those clubs are unshankable, no hosel.
I had the Cobra hybrid irons. My experience--Very high, very straight, but also very short. I always had distance control issues with them with half shots as well.
But huge bonus--they are fantastic chip and run clubs around the greens.
Bottom line, i went back to some forgiving Pings that I have used for 40 years. I probably could have gained consistency with them over time, but it would have taken time and i just decided to practice more. 😂
Hi Matt. Great reviews on the equipment 👍👍. I'm just curious to know why the good players don't like to use them since they're easier to hit and easier to score with. At the end of the round, the player with the best score wins the trophy or the bets with the guys you play with. Golf doesn't care what clubs one uses and I hear lots of golfers, myself included, always searching for the clubs that will help improve our game to shoot lower scores. Wouldn't this be it? Plus, I thought some ladies are using them on LPGA tour and the men on Champions tour, correct? I was thinking if a PGA tour player can use to lower his score by 1 or 2 strokes per round, that would mean a lot more cuts made and more cash in their bank, wouldn't it? Just curious to know also if you play a round or two per week with these clubs, would you see your scores improve or not. Thanks for sharing your reviews!
Consistency is why. Elite players do not want easier, they want repeatability. These types of clubs are much more forgiving on less than ideal contact, but with all that forgiveness comes at a cost of not being as exacting in terms of launch angle, spin, and feel.
@@joewiley6927 Thanks so much for your inputs, Joe. I just thought if these clubs are so much easier for amateurs to hit, why the tour pros don't use them by fitting to their specs, especially, they know how to hit their shots easier than us amateurs. I'm sure if one of them starts winning the tournaments with these clubs, some will probably try them, who knows. Just like the big broom putters 😁. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.
@@khamkenchanh2735 it would be like a professional bike racer leaving training wheels on their bike. Yes, they make it easier to ride, but if one is proficient at that, then taking them off will offer a professional a lot more freedom to use the bike as a tool for racing. Similarly with irons, and especially as you get toward wedges, the large sole of these hybrids in effect act as training wheels, limiting what can be done with the club in hand.
Edit: pretty pleased with this analogy!
I've had a set of cleveland launcher turbo 4-pw for 3 years now and I love them! Way more consistent than regular irons
My 3-P arrived a few days ahead of schedule and I put them in play immediately. I am a huge hybrid fan and these appear to be a great match for my game. I liked the shaft instantly and everything felt solid with the exception of one awful swing. I was able to negotiate a 4h punch from under a tree from 85 yards and a knock down PW. I don’t see the total transition being that difficult, even though admittedly I am of a tempo swing mindset. I see me playing 3 wedges in combination with this set….from a PW, 50 Gap and 55 SW. I highly recommend for all SR golfers with slower swing speeds.
Looks like great clubs. I’d like to see you review the Lazrus Golf hybrid irons. They’re very similar to the Elevens, with a price that’s about half as much.
Very nice. I have cobra iron-hybrids that are great. However, prefer my M2 irons now until age is an issue. Although seeing you chip and run with them ....I may do the same. Hopefully, you enjoy ANGC. It's a great course 👍
I'm in a similar situation and recently bought the 4, 6, 8 and pw from Eleven and they work! great to hit!
Great video 👍
Ok here Isa question.. ? I you a a singel handicap player and playing with a buddy that only plays 3-4 times a year and playing with the same clubs as you are think he was younger still have that 100+swing speed. Or do you want him to play with clubs that he can keep up hit straight rather then losing ball left and right slowing your game down effecting your game?
I’ve got a whole set of hybrids from wishon, and I have had them for over 10 years. I’m the worst golfer in any foursome, and unfortunately they haven’t worked out for me as well as I Had hoped. Did you make any changes in your stance, ball placement,
And golf swing for these clubs compared to your irons.
Are you using a iron style swing or a driver style swing?
I contacted them. Not directly available in the U.S. They will ship to US though. Very quick to respond. I guess if you have your specs, maybe they can figure it out for an order.
Check out the adams idea set. Also tour edge exotics made a great set before that. I'd sat 4-7 would be great for a lot of folks.
This is the video we all wanted to see. I'm impressed.
I can’t imagine a better response from a company over my inquiry. Impressed me. They followed up a 2nd time, both weekend responses. Family owned in the UK. The use of the KBS graphite shaft impresses me.
they didn’t reply to me
You are great at the bump and runs around the green with the 11 club, you should put at least one in your bag for this reason alone ❤
They dont call him Mr. Shortgame for nothing.
At 67 with a bad back, I switched to a full set of hybrids with fairway woods #3-#5. Best move ever.
I'm 68. I have 5, 7, and 9 woods, and hybrids. The only iron left is the sand wedge.
Be really awesome if they made this kind of set for ladies and beginners as well. Knowing that learning to hit the irons is hard at first and ladies struggle with irons this would be awesome.
@Sluggo717, Eleven does offer different shaft flexes for different swing speeds. These are perfect for beginners, ladies, older players…anyone looking for max forgiveness, high launch, great distance, and easy to hit.
MSG - I just receive my 6-PW from UPS today. First impression, they look great. I’m a 5 handicap and I decided a couple years ago that performance is all that should matter in a golf club. I’m playing three out of the next four days so let’s see if it was money well spent.
Well?
I am 80 yrs. old. I saw your video and I am going to get the 3-PW Eleven's. My swing speed is way down. Can you recommend a driver by shaft weight and loft?
Can you please explain why you as a scratch player would not put these in your bag? If they increase your confidence, why not? What exactly are the disadvantages to a scratch player?
Juvenile Detention Center! 😂
Why wouldn't you put a set of clubs in your bag that are easy to hit and inspire that much confidence? Are you afraid of making the game easier?
I think this was another enjoyable video from "ShortGame".
If you had to compare your swing to a pro, past or present, who would you pick? I see a lot of Freddy Couples with that move at the top
I have gone back and forth taking the 5 iron out of my bag in favor of a hybrid, however I always seem to come back to the 5 iron as I really need it to hit lower punch shots to get out of trouble. My 6 iron just goes a bit too high even when I put it back in my stance and I haven’t been able to consistently hit a low punch shot with a hybrid. I would be interested in some ideas on how to hit low shots with a longer hybrid type club to escape from the trees.
I'm finding that to be the only negative myself. I guess we need to keep it out of the woods.
They sound, look n perform great 👍
Mite need to put them up against the Cleveland halo clubs see which perform better
What are the most easy irons ? Wilson launch pad or the eleven Hybrids?
@tomguillermaere1144, I have played both and they are both great clubs. I found the Elevens easier to hit, more forgiving, and higher launching. I have a complete set in my bag & I love them!
@@sethnorthern711 I agree.... the game is funnier when you're on the short grass and don't top the ball
I would love for someone to do a comparison between these and the Halo XL. Seems they should be similar.
Can I purchase these clubs here in the US? I saw that they are in the UK. I didn’t call the number but sent an email and it didn’t go through. Google said it would try again later.
I use the Lazarus hybrids and love them. Chunked shots still go somewhere and they have a great feel all over the course. I was an 11 handicap until I swapped to the hybrids and I'm down to a 8.4 now
Bought 3,4 and 5 hybrids this year for the first time ever, no regrets.
My take away from this video is that all amateur golfers no matter their age need to leave their egos at home and use some hybrids to score better and enjoy the game more
I would challenge you to play a serious round with these and then a serious round with your gamers and see the result. But dial in those 11-short irons/hybrids to make it fair.
Lots of positive reviews on these clubs. At age 63 my new G425s should last maybe 5 years before I need 'old man' clubs. These are top of the list. I know they sell individual clubs, so I might test a 3i for a season versus my 3w for distance and accuracy.
Bought a 3 iron hybrid from eleven. Ended up using a players distance iron from titleist instead. Selling my 3 iron hybrid now if you are interested
@@hypent500 The reason you didnt like it?
@@GolfMissouri never used it. Still in the plastic seal. It just looked too much like a hybrid. Not into using hybrids. My fitter help set up titleist t400 to match the same distance as the 3 iron hybrid eleven. Irons are more familiar to hit. The 3 iron is most likely really nice. Just want to keep my bag woods irons only. No hybrids
@@hypent500 Shaft flex? Price?
@@mikeb1149stiff. 140
I’ve been looking at going hybrid irons for a while now.
4:29 311's got the boom y'all!
I like the clubs. Haven’t bought them. Wish they were a bit less expensive.
As a spare set of clubs. I can easily see these as a travel set of clubs. Especially going to courses you haven’t played before.
What course is this? Reminds me of LA golf.
It’s mostly ego that prevent clubs like these from being in more bags. Almost nobody will play worse golf with these once they figure out how far they go
A lot of potential for Spinal Tap references with these clubs
A lot of average golfers would improve if they added these instrad of the 5,6,7 irons. I have 26 and 30° ping hybrids but would definitely consider these if i wantes to replace the pings
Any dealers in the US ?
How about a comparison between Elevens and the much cheaper Lazrus? The Elevens definitely look nicer.
Do you know the swing weight of theses clubs? Enjoy your vids
Can you flight the 9 iron etc
Still have to be able to hit them good ,that's my issue I hit it good sometimes and sometimes not but I still love playing golf.
Comment of the video “ when I get older in age” 😂 😂 seriously, I can def see how these clubs would be helpful to older players.
WOW! Nice. What about high handicap golfers (100-96)?
Perfect for you.
what course is this?
Clubs look great to use
Review the McGregor hybrids
Pu tick psh tick pu tick psh chick pu psh chick du bwow woww. Nice music Short Game! Brown chicken brown cow!
I shot an 82 with one club a 30 degree hybrid. I shot 78 with my complete set. For me less is more.
What did he call that 60 degrees sand wedge? Gutter?
🙂Nice video and one I can relate to 👍
Why dismiss these kind of clubs as better for high hcpers and not for scratch and pros? Been using hybrids for about a year now and to me is like if pros are not taking advantage of technology then why play golf? What's the point of not using them if they can be also used to shape the ball any way you want? Why not dumping old tech like the old Tom Morris clubs, I mean, the blades and even the muscle backs?
These hybs fly higher and straighter by design, but they can be used for all kind of shots like high, mid, low trajectory and stingers with easy. Fades, draws and intentional hooks and slices can be done no problem. From the sand, the rough, tight lies, hard pan, dirt and pine straw are a beauty to hit. Why not adopt them and make a hard game easier?
I don't know no professional golfer that wants to get the prize money by winning easier than the rest. If they like to suffer, so be it, but there's no justification as there's only a few pros on tour that are considered ball strikers anyways.
I don't know, but if they come up with a tool to drive a nail better than with a claw hammer I'll take it!
Yes, I understand the point hybrids are beneficial for newbies and high hcpers so they can get motivated and such to not quit the game before an encouraging experience, but if pro golfers are already using one or two hybrids in their bag in tournament play, why not to kill the ego and go all for it thru the whole bag. I mean, what would be the "shame" if they already know how to work the ball anyway they need anyways?
I changed to hybs and added a whole set cavity backs wedges and I'm happily divorced from blades in my current life as a very low hcper. And just recently learn a of a pro saying he used to be dumb for not using cavity back irons! I don't know what kind of wedges he's using, but I also heard he's very comfortable with his game today and regrets not to have given them clubs a try before.
Oh well, in the end everybody's different, that a fact of life, and I'm not here to feel having convinced the whole world with a little argument about my ways and then go back to sleep with a big-O-smile on my face. That ain't the case. I just believe I made the game a wee-bit easier for me than IT'S NOT, so found no reason to not have hybried-up and enjoy some real new tech fun! Cheers!
It's very very weird seeing a hybrid pitching wedge
Be great if you had a shot tracer
I would like theses for fairway bunkers
Won’t any hybrid set have the same performance?
Not sure but these were impressive
I've seen a review of WILSON LAUNCH PAD TWO , have to say the consistency and workable nature of the ELEVEN clubs looked a lot better. Same way a Scotty might have the edge over an Anser.
Always test before purchase.
Plus, the ELEVEN's look WAY more classy. ( Sorry Mr Wilson. I actually use Wilson woods, Srixon irons and Mizuno wedge set, so I'm not biased towards any maker. Just perfeformance).
WILSON D100 SUPER LIGHT DRIVER, +1 inch length, 5gram lead tape front heel. Gives a superb medium to high flight with slight draw and more distance than anything else I have hit, ,EVER.)
These are hybrids. The wilsons, clevelands etc are hybrid irons. The irons have a flat face (no roll and bulge) slightly shorter shafts and less real estate at the back.
I play 26 and 30° ping g410 hybrids and then 8 9 pw in launchpad 2s and then 2 chunky cb wedges. I'm not nick faldo by any stretch but I can break 90.
90% of players play for the enjoyment. If you can play consistently below a 100-it is fun!!
Hey bro, don’t let the comments from a few weeks ago about your golf buddy get to ya. Bring us some more golfing with your buds.
Be great if top brand companies (I.e, Titleiest, Callaway, Taylormade, etc.) would also consider making this type of set for older people. Having a top name brand in your bag make a difference and helps in the confidence of using them. It’s like having a great set of clubs but not a brand name but they work for you, most people would not care what other think, but in reality they do. Having that top name brand always makes people feel better, otherwise why upgrade if your game is fine?
A lot of the big brand companies are producing theor standard hybrids in up to 34° loft now which is 7/8 iron equivalents. The downside is they charge £250 plus each where as an 11 hy rid is 1/3rd of that.
Nice course where is that at
Atlanta National
I tried a set similar to these at golf galaxy earlier this year and man I just couldn’t hit them to save my life. Thinned almost every shot. I know it was most likely mental on my part, but I just couldn’t hit them.
Likely ball position
I have a set of inexpensive hybrids which I got when struggling in the 100 to 150yard range. If you want to enjoy your golf I’d recommend them but you do get a lot of comments from the “traditionalists”.
A 26yo family member of my wife’s play those hybrids because he can’t hit irons 😂😂. He’s still around triple digit player 😂.
I am 76 and I want these clubs. Old age is a 5hit so anything that helps must be good.
Cleveland hybore have been out for years.
Price is a little high for me
It look really easy to play with ❤
If People knew how hard Atlanta National is they would be even more impressed with how well you played it.. That course penalizes you with you have a bad shot.
Promo Code For The Elevens Mr. Short "G"?
Those clubs would be great for chipping.
These clubs will all be our future if we want to keep playing well into the future
Why in the world do those clubs come with those shafts.
Do you change ball position when using the different clubs
First! You rock!
If they're easy to hit and you have a lot of confidence with them then why not use them?
