I just got a 4hy and i cant figure out how far its "supposed" to go.
I can hit it anywhere for 100 to 220 depending on how i hit it. its my first hybrid and im having trouble integrating it into my game. So how far do most of you hit ur 4 hybrid or any other hybrid

I hit the 3h around 200-210 on a well struck shot, and the 4 about 20 yards less. For comparison I hit my 3w around 220, but it has a lot lower trajectory so that depends a lot on whether the ground is soft (it can roll out big when its dry and in wet conditions I probably hit the 3h farther)

220 sounds about right on the max side. just keep practicng and you'll get that distance consistently.

I have the 585.H 17° I use it for 250 yards. I find it pretty easy to hit and its an awesome club, I love it. I will definitely will change 3 iron for a 21° 585.H.

20 degree, 170-175 yards. But keep in mind that I'm a short hitter at the moment.

15* hybrid goes anywhere from 210-240 depending on whether it's a draw, fade, or (generally) straight.

I find that if I get a rare, solid smack on my hybrid I can go 200 yards, but often I get a mis-hit or a slice. It has something to do with not being used to the lie angle of the club and needing more practice with it. I was knocking my 4H dead at the range today but when I used my 3H (once) during a 9 hole round I flubbed the shot and had to shoot again with a 5I from the rough.

When I do get a good shot out of the rough is when I really fall in love with my hybrids. They're great clubs, I just need more time swinging them.

2 hybrid goes about 210 - 220....just enough distance to cover the gap to my 3 wood from my 3 iron!
but it really depends on the wind.

I just bought a Titleist 585.h 19° hybrid and was asking myself the same question. I hit it several times during my round last night when I previously would have hit 3wood or 3iron. It went from 180yards, chunky out of thick rough, to about 210 off the fairway.

usually top the things, i CANNOT hit them give me a 2 iron any day of the week, i think this may be as the shafts were way too bendy but not certain. I prefer a good honest 2 iron with steel shaft.

My 21deg Sonartec MD goes about 220 off the deck, maybe a tad further from a tee. This past weekend at my home course I had 224 to the front edge on #4 (measured with SkyCaddie). The pin was up front, so out came the hybrid. Shot flew 224.5 yards and stuck tight because the greens (heck, the entire course) were soooo wet.

I have the 585.H 17°. I can hit it 250 yards. I find it a lot easier to hit than a 3 wood so I took the 3w out of my bag.

So you prefer the hybrid than the wood? I'm planning to buy a 3 wood, but I will buy it if I hit it longer that the hybrid. Wich wood do you use and how long should be a normal 3 wood?

Regards.

I hit the 3 wood further off the tee than the hybrid, but the hybrid is so much more versatile than the 3 wood so its more appealing to me. And the difference is really minimal so its not a big deal. Also I have 3 wedges not including PW and I'd prefer to keep the third wedge than to take it out for a 3 wood. Length is not my problem so it just seems pointless for me to have a 3 wood. I'd rather be more precise with my approach yardages.

    • Day 133 - Played 9 again. Driver was great, putting was better, but shots inside 100 were awful. 
    • Day 36: 15 balls, same as last few days. Then a little indoor putting.
    • hey guys, sorry about the kind of short notice, but i'm not going to be able to make it to the outing this year....  
    • Had to correct the distance - should have read 5,400 not 5,500  yds. 
    • Had to report this one - played Minnesott again today with my son.  We played behind the Friday Men's group and had a decently paced round.  My round started off par-par-bogie.  I was feeling good to be +1 through three.  Played the next two par - par and then disaster hits - well I thought it may be the unravelling of +1 through five.  Tee shot on six is a hard pull hook into the ditch separating four and six.  I know the ball is lost and re-tee - hitting three off the tee on this par five.  Long story short - what should have been at worst a bogie became a triple 8.  Now I'm +4 through six holes.  Get a solid par on seven (which I celebrated as a solid recovery hole).  Eight is a birdie and I'm back to three over.  Nine, a par 3 over water, finishes par for a 39 front.   We roll to the back to where I birdie ten (the toughest hole on the back) to be -1 after the first hole on the back, +2 for the round.  Par eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen and fifteen - that was an in the zone moment.  Have to note that fourteen - the second par 3 on the back - I hit the tee shot just short right of the flag.  Easy pitch with the 56 should put me close for a tap in par.  It does not happen - as I duff the pitch to about 3yds closer.  I reset and this time I nip it nicely only to see it land and slowly roll to the cup and drop in for a chip-in par save ( a first).   We get to sixteen and I am thinking this could be a really good round.  It's also a par 5 and I hit a solid tee shot.  I'm about 220 from the center of the green and figure I can layup with the 3w as there is a nice landing area in front of the green and it would play nicely into the typical distance I hit this club.  I'm sitting about 50 yds from the flag to the right hand side.  I overcook the 56 and see the ball bounce off the back of the turtle green.  I hit an easy 56 again to see the ball roll to the other side of the green.  Long story it became a 3putt double.  Now I am +4 through sixteen.  The last two holes are solid pars - one an up and down, the other a GIR two putt. Finished the back 1 over at 37.  Total score is a 76!  A new personal best.  Best "all around" play through the bag to date.
