Hybrid
Old Hybrid: Steel-headed 19°, graphite shaft, 3.3 freq., standard length, standard grip
Hot Stix says: The shaft is ridiculously soft, less stiff than the majority of irons. Frank can crush the ball one shot and then hit a soft popup the next without feeling even a marginal change in his swing.
New Hybrid: TaylorMade Burner, 22°, Fujikura E380
HB graphite shaft, 3.9 freq., standard length, midsize grip
Hot Stix says: This shaft is the same stiffness as his new irons. He hit 19° Burner consistently well but a little low. We increased the loft (to 22°) to optimize ball flight and to give softer landings.
