Hybrids are very versitile!  Best used as a replacement for a 5 wood or long iron.   Awesome from the rough.  They're also great for chipping around the green!  Just choke down on the shaft...use a putting stroke...the wider base glides smoothly along the grass, like a putter, but the loft gets the ball over the fringe or other bad areas (sprinkler heads, etc).

Never really been a fan of hybrids, always preferred my long irons. That said, I bought my first hybrid to replace the 3 iron. Original set came 4-GW, I needed the 3 iron gap filled, and I didn't want to miss match my irons. Didn't really care for the hybrid, but it worked. Found the matching 3 iron about a week or so later and bought that to kick the hybrid out of the bag. Over the winter, I picked up another hybrid, which replaces the 5wood/2iron. So far so good.

I have a 19 degree Titleist to replace my 3-iron.  I experimented with a hybrid 4, but I didn't stick with it.  I use my 4-iron to hit punch shots out from under trouble, and the 5 seems to have too much loft.  Also, it was hard to find a 4-hybrid that maintained enough of a gap from the 3.

Got a 2 hybrid. Use to have a 3 hybrid but find the 3 iron to be a better club for me.

I use a 21* to replace my 3 iron. Had an 18 in the bag to cover a 5 wood/2 iron but I'd rather have an extra wedge in the bag.

 913 D2 8.5* with V2 66g stiff shaft

 910F 14.25 with Diamana stiff shaft

 i20 17, 20, and 23 hybrid 

 AP2 712 5-PW with Dynamic Gold S300 shaft

 54 and 60

I envy you very much, I would kill to be able to find the CB1 3 iron to go with my set. Mismatching drives me crazy so in order to bridge the gap looks like a 2 hybrid will go into my bag in place of a 5 wood.

4, 3, 2 hybrid. No 5 wood. No long irons. I could probably play a traditional 4 iron, but I'm lazy and these hybrids hit so good, why should I!

In my Ogio bag.

Titleist 910D2 driver, Adams irons & hybrid, Callaway wedges & a Nike Method putter.

And a yellow ball.

I use a 21 degree that replaces my 3 iron, strangely enough, the one I got is labeled 4 iron.

      I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.

      With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.

      So the biggest issue right now is marrying the hands down with an athletic turn. I can get stuck not turning. Things get interesting from there.

      Playing With Irons

      By John of Art ·

      Hi everybody!  I am new to the golf game. I have taken some lessons and got fitted for clubs a couple of months ago. I usually score between 110-120 for 18 holes.  I bought a Stealth driver last year and have been hitting consistently with it 210-230 yds on the simulator. But when I take it out on the course, every drive is a severe slice!  I played 18 holes yesterday at the club where I belong. I removed the driver from my bag and used the 5 iron to drive with. I hit straight 16 out of 18 drives, 180 - 200 yds. I used the 5i - putter for the rest of my game.  I ended the day with a 92. Question: Does it make sense for me to continue playing with irons only until I get further along in my game before I reintroduce the Driver and woods again? Or should I continue to struggle with the Driver and woods and shoot in the 100’s again? To me it’s a no brainer, but for those more advanced I am interested to get feedback.
