Driving iron less "draw biased" than hybrid?

Any one have any experience/advice regarding switching from hybrid (currently Callaway Xhot 3 hybrid) to a driving iron (looking at Titleist 712u 18*?  Specifically to combat a tendency to hook the hybrid? Wouldn't mind a bit flatter trajectory in the wind either, but mainly want to dial back the hook, especially when I use it off the tee.

Thanks Mike.  Not missing on the toe with the Xhot, it's just either a draw or a hook.  I have a really hard time turning it left to right, and even the straightest shots have at least a couple yards of draw on them, so they always seem to kick right when they hit the green.

[quote name="MConstantineJr" url="/t/75751/driving-iron-less-draw-biased-than-hybrid#post_1019272"]First post. Glad to be here. I can't hit a hybrid for the life of me. I currently play MP37 7-pw with acer xf pro 4-6 to gap accordingly. However I have a been toying with a 4-6 Wilson D100 leaving the xf pro 6 in the bag as well to bridge the gap of the SGI Wilson's. I have an MP Fli Hi cut muscle 4 on the way that I would replace the Wilson 5 with as they are both 24*. Depending on how I hit it I will definitely buy a 2 Fli Hi which is 18* to replace my Cobra T Rail 3 hybrid as well as a 2 Fli hi to replace my Wilson 4 iron. So my bag would be Driver, 3 wood, 2-4 MP Fli Hi, leave the Wilson 6 and xf pro 6 in the bag to bridge the gap of the SGI Wilson, and then MP37 7-pw. My question is are driving irons easier, as easy, or more difficult to hit off the deck than a SGI like the Wilson D100? One more note. I was thinking to have as little change possible through the set to go MP Fli hi 2-4, Wilson 6 and then the MP37 6-pw eliminating the xf pro altogether.[/quote] To add, I can hit irons well. They are the best aspect of my game and I have considered going 3 wood, 5 wood, 3-pw, 3 wedges and putter. If they made 12 and 15 degree driving irons I'd consider that over the woods.

So went out and tried some driving irons and different hybrids.  Loved the drive irons of the tee; little lower flight, and much harder to hook.  Miss was mostly straight right (which I find MUCH less penalizing than a hook).  However, took a pretty good swing to hit high enough off the deck to maximize carry and hold greens.  Club fitter recommended I try some of the "player" hybrids, and man I was blown away.  I ended up with the X2 Hot Pro 20* (go figure).  Even with a slightly shorter shaft and one degree less loft I actually hit it further.  No more hooks either.

Sold.

You have a standard hybrid, so it may have quite a bit of offset which can contribute to hooking.

Hybrids with tour or pro heads usually have less offset than standard hybrids. This is something to consider.

I had the same problem and I bought Adam's DHY Hybrids.  More friendly than Irons not as forgiving as GI hybrids.

I got 18 (2) 21 (3) and 24 (4) they happen to fit my gaps well.

Hit the 21* other day; great club.  Long as hell and no hooks.  I'd gotten so used to trying hold off the Xhot just to hit it straight that it took me a bit to stop blocking these.
