For  my irons I was fitted 4 degrees up and I am wondering if hybrids can be fitted for lie and if it is necessary?

Almost all clubs (including driver and woods) can be bent in the right persons hands, a lot of places wont do it however becuase the odds of breaking the club are much increased.

Your best bet would be to buy a hybrid from a OEM who offers the service themselves as they would probably cover any damage.

Bobby Jones Workshop has an elongated hosel that is meant to be bent (by a professional) and fitted to the golfer. Now available for $79... a deal.

Wishon makes both a hybrid and fairway wood with a soft SS hosel that is designed to be easily and safely bent up to +/- 4 degrees. I have the 3 and 4 hybrid in the range and find them at least the equal of the Adams A7s I had before in terms of general playability.

I have a 2 degrees flat hybrid from Ping.  If you want a hybrid from Ping with an adjusted lie, the club has to be ordered.  It's the head that is different, not simply an adjusted hossel.  How you can tell is, the degree symbol on the club is a different color.  For example standard lie the degree symbol (*) is black, 2* flat, the (*) is purple.

I just got a Wishon 775 18degree a few weeks ago, and that thing is awesome.  Very solid.  My first shot with it was from 237 and put it four feet away.  It was the first eagle I have had on that particular par 5 in a long time.  I have also loved hitting it off of the tee and out of the rough.  I don't think my shop changed the lie to what I need, so I am glad I looked at this thread.

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf. 
    • They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
    • to confirm, I'll need a hotel for Friday and Saturday, planning to share with you
