I500 3 iron

Has anyone tried using this to replace a 3 hybrid or a 5 wood? Thinking of going 3 iron power spec loft. Anyone try this? How’s it working out? Thanks.

3 hybrid gone. 3i (normal spec) a bomber off the tee and lower off the deck but still very good. Went with iron shaft Ctaper lite, but have a recoil if I can't get it dialed in. No hybrid, go straight to 4wd, and off the tee it's about 10-15 shorter.

Love mine. Have it at the standard loft with PX LZ 6.5. Really hot off the tee and pretty easy to use off the deck as well. It's larger than I would prefer but it's not too bad. I filled mine with yarn to dampen the sound and it's perfect now.

okay, i think you are the first person i know off that have tried this on golfwrx that is. I have to know how exactly did you do it ? I have so many questions lol.

1. How much yarn did you have to use? Did you stuff it till you cant stuff it anymore?

2. How did you insert them ?

3. Is there a BIG difference in sound ?

4. What did it do to the sound exactly?

5. Did it effect the swingweight. did you check ?Can you feel it ?

6. What color was the yarn ? Just kidding.

I use mine as my 2nd longest club in the bag. I am not particularly long off the tee, but I hit my 3i off the tee on 6 or so par 4's regularly. It is remarkably straight and goes long enough. I lost about 10-15 yards from my Fli-Hi, but the i500 is very easy to hit off the deck. It goes about 225 for me on a solid strike and would easily replace a 3hybrid/5wood. If you play a longer course, you still might want a 3wood in the bag.

1. I used as much as I could fit

2. I inserted through the toe screw using the Ping torque wrench actually

3. Noticeable difference in sound

4. Sounds went from high pitched “pingy” (God I’m sorry) to a more muted solid sound

5. Can’t feel the SW difference but it added a little, not very much.

6. Black. Figured I’d go white or black to match the Ping colors and black won out.

Really though, I love it without the yarn, but with the yarn it’s perfect.

You are God to me at this moment.

i wonder if there is something even better and lighter than yarn... any ideas anyone ?

Yarn will be the best. First up, it is the easiest to remove if you ever need to.

Weight also won't be much of an issue as the cavity has a relatively small volume. I found yarn added about 3 to 4 sw to a 460cc driver head and I'm guessing you could put all the yarn you like in an i500m iron head and would not impact swingweight by more than 2 pts, if that.

Poly-fil. I have a bag of it I got from Walmart to quiet down some drivers I had. It works great and weighs next to nothing.
