Depends on a lot of things, but in most situations I would take my hybrid. I'm smacking my irons around pretty well right now, so I might go with a 3 or 4 iron as well, just depending on the shape of the shot, the lie, and the conditions.

I'd probably use my 4 hybrid and swing easy- I normally hit it 215-220

If I can roll up ... my 3-hybrid usually carries ~190 with roll to 200. Else, a 90% 5-wood will drop around 200.

It all depends on the day, the lie, the confidence, etc.

Ive been using my new 21 degree hybrid from 200 yards the last couple weeks and i love the action i get from it. Lands nice and soft, but i can hit a low knockdown type shot and get it to roll 200+ if i need to. The irons i use are strong lofted so the problem i used to have was my 4i would come in too hot and skip over my target.

First of all, where are the 1 and 2 irons... (not that I would hit either but anyway)

Its a weighted question... this might help... in normal conditions these are my distances.
Driver 290
3-wood 265
5-wood 245
2-iron 240
3-iron 228
4-iron 215
5-iron 202
6-iron 190
7-iron 177
8-iron 163
9-iron 150
PW 137
52w 123
SW 110
LW 95

From Fairway:
In normal conditons five-iron... (flat no wind) If its hot even with no wind I may hit as little as 8-iron. Into stiff breeze I've hit 2-iron Slight breeze 4-iron... if its cold I may hit as much as 3-iron...

From Rough:
Crappy lie: Lay-up
Flyer lie: 7 or 8 iron
Decent Lie: 5-iron
Lie where Rough effects it: 4-iron

From Fairway Bunkers:
Choke down on 4 or 5-iron depending on the lie and the wind

Well, im not much of a distance player. I usually crack a 4 iron about 180 yds. So my hybrid will have to make up the gap.

    • Yes, but not always the case. IMHO, green speeds are a huge variable and can effect score variation from week to week or month to month significantly. Our own course that is running at about 8-9 depending on the week/day, can run up to 12 (no kidding) in peak months around certain event, and most like me score 3-4 shots higher on an average, missing a lot of 3-4 footers. There are any PCC adjustments that I am aware of. Have you every played their course? I am betting $20 you will find some answers if you haven't already.

    • 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.
