Are you supposed to swing these like a hybrid or not? I got one free with the driver and really want to learn how to hit it good. Should my swingplane be more like my driver or more like my irons? I think I am trying to sweep too much instead of hitting down on it? Anbody with experience with one? Just confusing since it says ease of hybrid but distance of a fairway. Really need to be able to fill that gap between driver and three iron.

I dunno, what degree is it? I can't hit hybrids too well, so I can't say (they just don't feel as solid as irons to me.) I would guess you should sweep it like a 3W. When I miss with the 3W or 5W, its usually because I'm too steep.

I have the same club. You can do either swing with it thats the beauty.
Its the only 3Wood I can use in rough and still nail it. If I am in the rough I hit down on it hard play it a bit more center. If I am fairway or driving with it I sweep it, more front of stance. Both give good distances, if you sweep it you should get lower trajectory and more roll. I bought it to cover the distance between driver and hybrid and it works wonders. My drives are about 220, I hit this 200 off the deck and my hybrid is 180

I could never figure it out, I cant get comfortable over a hybrid, hence why I don't carry one anymore.

But yes I believe it has to do with loft/length of shaft. I played mine slightly forward of center.

I sweep it back and strike it with a descending blow. If I want to draw the ball, I don't hit down as much. Works for me but not sure how it'll turn out for you.

Well if I do not sweep slight as flat as driver, I have been able to make it fly off the mat at the local driving range. But yesterday on the course and real grass, that was another story. Topping or digging too much, never once hit and good clean shot with it. Maybe mental since actually counted.
