I play a 24* 4-iron and a 19* hybrid. I hit the 4-iron 185-190 and the hybrid 210-215 Obviously I have a huge distance gap, and seeing as I'm dropping a wedge, I'll have room to add another hybrid. What loft do you think would fit the distance gap and go about 200? I'm thinking somewhere around 22* would fit the bill. What do you think?

In my Ogio Ozone Bag:
TM Superquad 9.5* UST Proforce 77g Stiff
15* Sonartec SS-2.5 (Pershing stiff)
19* TM Burner (stock stiff)
4-U - PING i10 White dot, +1.25 inches, ZZ65 stiff shafts55*/11* Snake Eyes Form Forged (DGS300)60*/12* Snake Eyes Form Forged (DGS300)Ping i10 1/2 MoonTitleist ProV1

I'd look at a couple of options:

Get a 21 or a 22 depending on what club you like best.

Perfect scenario would be to get a 21 and then drop your 19 for an 18. Then your slotted 3* thru those three clubs.

TGW.com is worth a look. They have some nice clubs in that range for $89 (Ping/TM/Callaway).

I just got the Diablo 24* and used it to make birdie today on a par 3 in fact. Good luck.

it says you already have a 21 in your bag but Yeah 21 or 22 would do great.

All the major OEMs make really good hybrids now, so you really can't go wrong with whatever you find. But Adam's are well known for their Hybrids and Nickents are really good as well and can be found for some great deals..

It also says you have a i10 Half Moon putter, think you mean an I-series half moon yeah?

As said though 18-21 as shown in your sig is the way to go.

Plenty of options with different manufacturers. Personally, depending on what set of irons I am playing and how many wedges I'll be playing with, I generally have to choose 2/4 or 3/4 clubs out of my Wilson Fybrids: 3-Wood (15*), 5-Wood (18*), Fybrid (19.5*), and 3 Hybrid (21*). I pretty much always play my Fybrid 4 Hybrid (24*) and then go up from there. As TopWalker said, if you drop your 19* hybrid and go with a 21* hybrid, you'll get a nice 3* gap b/w each club in that range. Especially used, these clubs are getting so cheap these days, no harm in adding a good 21* hybrid to your set.

Equipment:
Ping K15 Driver (10.5º) - Diamana BB R flex; Ping G15 4 Wood (TFC R flex); Ping G15 20* Hybrid (TFC R flex); Ping G15 23* and 27* Hybrids (AWT R flex steel); Ping G15 Irons 6-GW (AWT R flex steel); Ping I-Wedge 54* Wedge; CG14 BP 58* Wedge; Odyssey Black Series Tour Designs #9 Putter

    • I’m not sure I’m following you. My current plan is to take the bunkers out of play completely and hit something like a 6i to 130-150 range.
    • Day 139- Slow, swings with short practice club. 
    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
