I think Mr Ortiz is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise , overblown ego driven arena . Finally we have someone who knows of what he speaks !

Keep up the great work !

I have the 21 degree Bobby Jones stiff shaft. My plan was to replace my 21 degree sonartec, the problem is my sonartec was my 180 to 190 yd. club. Off the tee I hit my Bobby Jones 205 to 215, off the fairway 195 to 205yds. I have only had this club a month. I have checked the distance with my sky caddie several times. My club speed ranges from 90 to 94. I was toying with getting the 19 or 17 degree hybrid, but from what I read you may suggest the fwy woods instead. I’d like any comments you may have. I’m anxious to see the new Driver. I believe that’s in my future

Thanks Neil

Thank you for the clear information.
While shopping around for my clubs, so much advice came in from so many friends.
Your advice was the most helpful.

I’ve just purchased several ladies pieces from the Bobby Jones/Jesse Ortiz Collection.
I love them

I currently play your H4 and H5 hybrids. Also own the H3 but I just can’t give up my 7 wood. These hybrids are quickly becoming my favorite weapons. I just can’t wait to see the next shot. I see on the Bobby Jones site that you show a 35 degree H6. When will you bring them out? I’m very ready to try one. Also anxious to see the new wedges.

Interesting comments by all. I have played just about every way, shape, and club as well as just about every way, shape, and form of club shaft. I stumbled upon the Bobby Jones series while watching the golf channel while working the night shift. I thought, why not give these a try. I purchased a hybrid and low and behold, I was truly amazed. I then purchased the rest of the hybrids. I then thought, why not the driver and presto, things fell into place.

What I have found is that the addition of the hybrids has eliminated the need to have fairway woods in my bag as well as long irons. I have found my comfort level, so to speak, with the distances and, most importantly, the accuracy of these hybrids. This has allowed me to return to the blade type short irons and wedges I used to play in days gone by.

I also have the BJ Driver and have found that I am more consistent off the tee as well.

One of your other comments concerned club shafts. I have had many different styles and shaft flexes in my many years of playing. I think the BJ/Jesse Ortiz clubs with the regular flex have solved all of my problems. One man’s regular shaft is not the same from all manufacturers, but for me, the shafts in the BJ/Jesse Ortiz clubs have “made my day”.

Keep up the good work.

Am very happy with my four hybrids, will probably get one more. Have ordered all four wedges. I tried one of your new drivers and cannot understand why you put the absolutely terrible red shaft in that lovely head. “SLOPPY”, is the closest word for it. With all the class in your other clubs, why not use a Fujikura as good as the “Burners” have. I was told that there was no other shaft choice availible in regular on the 12 degree head. I’m no longer able to hit my driver 300 plus, but my brain and touch are still that of a scratch golfer who loves all your other work.
