question on woods??

a question I was wondering today. when I bought the set of clubs I have I got 4-pw irons driver 3 wood and a 3hybrid also what I was wondering is would there be any huge benifits for me to try and pick up a 5 wood? the hybrid I really don't seem to hit well at all I slice it worse than about any club in the bag so I was thinking that Iight try and pick up a 5 wood but thought I might get some opinions from you all on it. the 3 wood I have I hit pretty decent much better than the hybrid which I think is odd concedering I always heard that the hybrids were supposed to be easier to hit. so what is your alls opinions

Congrats on your new purchase.  What brand of clubs did you get?  If you are not able to hit the 3H, I would suggest instead of spending money on another club, instead spend money on lessons.  Also, I had alot of trouble adjusting to hybrids.  I always tried to over swing it.  My suggestion is to swing it more like your 4 iron, and try to hit it the same distance as your 4 iron or even shorter.  The goal of irons shouldn't be to hit them as far as possible, but to be able to control the distance that you hit them.

Best of luck on your new clubs. Maybe post a video of your swing on the members swing section, you might have an easily identified flaw that is accentuated by the 3H.

the clubs I bought used from a guy that had only played 9 holes with them. they are callaway diablo edge irons the wood is a diablo wood razr hybrid and diablo octane driver I do need to post a video of my swing I know just haven't got it done yet. I know I have some major problems with my swing which is normal for a new player I know but I'm trying to work on it as I go. I do plan on getting some lessons here soon from the local pro at our country club and hopefully cure some of my problems.

As clearwaterms suggested, you might take a lesson and see if you can learn to hit a hybrid. Most hybrids work best if you hit down on the like a 5i, rather than sweeping them like a wood. Also, not all hybrids are created equal. I was discouraged by hybrids for a couple of years because I just tried ones that were wrong for me. After experimenting, I found I hit the Callaway and Adams hybrids quite well.

If you still have trouble with the hybrid, try out a 5W. Some people hit higher lofted woods better than hybrids. Also, you might be able to find an Octane 5W in the used club bins.
