Well, I had/have both....
I had the 19* 2i Halo for about 1 year (replaced my 3i, but is listed as a 2i). I did like it. High launch, very easy to hit. Worked well off the tee and out of the rough. The sloped look gave me confidence. Only downside, I could draw it, but I couldn't seem to fade it. I also found it hard to hit low.
However, this is a GREAT utility club and you can get it at a GREAT price right now.
My father wanted the 3i & 4i TaylorMade Rescue Dual clubs. We found them, brand new, on eBay for $99 a piece. I sh*t you not. I'll post the invoice if I have to. They are all gone from the seller sadly.
My father, being the great guy he is, bought me a 3i 19* stiff TM Dual along with his clubs.
I do have to say I like it A LITTLE better than the Halo. Why?
1) I hit it a litte lower on average, but I can also swing steep and hit it high.
2) I can work my shots any which way.
3) Its so forgiving its sick. A bad swing looks and sounds hot. Nice snap sound at impact.
4) Love the look and feel.
Also gives you the weights if you are a slicer. My father has a pretty consistent fade, but by putting the weights in the draw setting, it really has straighten it out. BOTH are great clubs. Highly rated. If price is a concern, you can pick up a HALO on eBay right now for under $100 new. The dual will usually go in the $125-150 range. Buying them off a site, HALO will be about $120 for graphite and the Dual about $179 for graphite.
