Ok, so a week ago, i picked up a 5 hybrid, since i had been thinking about it... mainly it was because my current set of iron's, i just dont hit the 5 iron and 6 iron that great ( Cobra LTDx One length )  

I have been playing 3 and 4 cleveland hybrids for a while now and liked them.     

But after hitting the 5 hybrid from Callaway, i was blown away at the distance i was getting and how easy it was to hit the ball.    I mean it literally feels like cheating lol.   

Well after buying a matching 3 and 4 hybrid off of Ebay, i was also looking for a 6 hybrid, and found one at the Golfing Store i visit on a regular basis... it literally was hiding in ( last one they had) plain sight and the guy helping me found it lol...   And no lie, the distance i get with those two clubs is laughable lol..   But i feel like it's going to fill in those gaps..   

Plus having the 3 and 4 hybrids will give me more distance when i was normally trying to use my 3 or 5 wood..    

So who else has used these and what are your thoughts?

Hybrids or this specific hybrid.  I have a 2 and 4 hybrid in the bag.  The 4 hybrid is a gamer for me since my next longest iron is a 6, which is seeing very little use these days.  In fact I mostly use it off the tee.  Off the fairway a 7 iron is generally the longest.  Anything more than that I tend to hit my 4 hybrid and modulate the distance.  My 2 hybrid needs more practice since it is more draw biased and tends to go too much left 🤐  But overall I really like hybrids

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Tour 900 golf ball

I have a 3H, 4H. The 3H is a Titleist Ti2 and the 4H is a PingG425. 5i is the longest iron I play. I use my hybrids all over the course as that’s where I hit my ball. Par 3’s that are just over 200yds I use my 3H. I have a 3W but I’m considering other options as I don’t seem to hit it any further than my 3H except if it’s teed up.

these two hybrids ( 5&6 )    I mean, i thought i hit my Cleveland 3&4 hybrid's decent.   But these Callaway's are unreal.   When I'm getting the same distance from using less club it literally has me giddy as can be.

Well when i get everything sometime this week, I'll have a 3,4,5,6 hybrid in Rogue ST Max OS,  i originally just had a 3 and 4 and then went 6 thru wedges in irons..  But rarely did i ever use my 6 iron, because i just never did seem to be able to hit it well.     I did ditch my 5 wood, since I rarely did use it.     Usually I only try to use my 3 wood when i'm teeing it up too, i'm just too hot n cold with it off the deck.

Over time I will invariably wind up getting more hybrids in my bag.  When I was younger I could hit my 3 iron consistently.  Now I can still hit it pure, but consistency is out the window.  That is why I start at a 6 iron only.  Eventually it will be 7 iron onwards and hybrids/woods longer than that.

    • Day 39: did top golf for an hour with the family. It was fun but also not really like real golf at all. Also did some mirror work - working on the backswing stuff mostly. 
    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
