Anyone else out there that can chime in with their experience with the NLH-01 hybrid? Already read through the other couple threads.
 

I started going down the Adams eBay rabbit hole, but the NLH with a Ventus could be too good of a deal to pass up assuming performance is up to par with OEM’s. TXG’s review was very promising. Titleist is the only other company that has my hybrid attention. 

I am interested too.  Been battling between the hybrid and utility.

You guys are killing me with all the positivity on these clubs lol

How has accuracy and dispersion been with the OS for those who have used them. 

[Minarets]

I’m going to hit my 7i today.   Will let you know

incredible. Like laser beams mounted on sharks heads.

Do you guys think Eric is about to drop the next iteration of these irons? All these discounts make me think they are making room for new stock.

Have they ever had a 1 year product cycle? These just came out this year.

I bought the PF-2's right when they first came out and the 623's came out a little over a year later.

[ChristopherMcDonald]

I wouldn’t attribute a Black Friday sale to clearing stock. It’s a pretty standard annual sale at this point. Doesn’t mean new irons aren’t in the works though

[gdb99]

I was able to see a few of the New Level irons today in person. 
Store had the newer 623 MB, original 902, 902 PD and OS, MOB1, 1126, PF1 and 2. 
I’m glad I was able to see these because I was about to buy a set of 623 MB heads from them. 
I liked the 902 OS and really liked PF 1 and 2. I will be looking for a set of PF’s. Maybe a combo set.

I didn’t know they still sold the blades?

Yes, they fixed the issue with the USGA. Something with the 6 and PW heads was off. This particular store has new sets of the “illegal” model.

Oh nice.  I didn’t see them on their site.

I just ordered 6 to A 902 OS irons.  I couldn't pass up the 25% off Black Friday deal.  I really hope I fall deeply in love - I'ld like to stick with irons for more than a season ! ( wife laughs hardily in the background ! ).

 

I was considering new PXG 0211 xcor2s - but the lure of the forged feel won out ( even though pxg cast feels pretty good).

 

I was considering Srixon ZX5s - which feel great - been there done that.

 

I am a Ping guy - but the new prices are nauseating.

 

I'll report back when I get a chance to hit them in the sims this winter in Ontario.  A long wait for season opening in April !!

This is me to a tee.  Why I’m looking so hard at NL. Just built my spec i230 the other day and it was $1900 with the graphite I play.

I have a 7 iron 623CB with x100 shaft I ordered for a demo. If anyone would like to try it I will ship it in the US for $30. 

[belh22]

With 1900 (aka nauseating) you could get new level irons and still have over a grand left for driver or whatever else you wanted to replace

Well, with the same shafts it’s still over $1k for NL.  But it ain’t 1900

 

but that’s the point.  I’ll likely buy a utility and hybrid from NL as well and still be a lot cheaper

Do we know what was nonconforming?

No idea. It couldn't have been much, it was just the 2 heads. I wasn't going to worry about it myself.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a new Utility and or Hybrid come out.  As someone else already said, this is the first year of the new irons.  I doubt the current irons will get replaced for another 1-2 years.

My heads came in today! Didn’t waste any time doing the paintfill removal hack. Then paintfill came out way easier than when I tried to remove them from some Maltby pTM heads. Went all in 4-gw. May paintfill them with blue if I decide that are the heads to game and put some custom bbfandco ferrules. Blue paintfill like the Maltby below

I have the black PTM as well.  Let me know which irons you like better?

[ericft]

You mean like these? Ha! I had them as well, but was buying too many irons so had to sell some. Regret it now coz they looked so good.

The hosel looks long, not the ferrule.

 

Must be something with the angle or something...
