How many hybrids do you carry?

**clubmaker15** · October 14, 2008

I want to know how many hybrids you carry and why? I am debating whether or not to dump the 5-iron. I hit it weak off of the fairway and find it really inconsistent. I just reshafted my hybrid with a steel shaft and am still waiting on a verdict. I like it so far, but it waits to be seen. Any thoughts or comments will be interesting. Thanks

I carry two, but they are the 4,5. I found I hit my 3 hybrid about as far as my 5 wood. I like my 5 hybrid, its one of my favorite clubs. I even use it alot for greenside.

None anymore. I carry a 2 iron, 4-PW and a 5 wood. That pretty much does the trick for me!

I carry 2 hybrids, the 4 and 5. My 4 hybrid has a long shaft (40") so it is almost like an 8 wood. It covers my 3 and 4 iron distances.

I can cover my 155-175 distances without the 5 hybrid as I can work the 4 hybrid short and my strong lofted 6 longer by delofting a bit. But the 5 gives me a lot of recovery options and serves as a nice fringe putter as well.

I dropped the 3 hybrid and added a 64* wedge. For me, it saved strokes.

Uhh... None. I've never felt the need to carry one. In fact I just swapped out my 2-iron for a 3-wood.

No hybrids here:
Driver, 3w, 3i-PW, wedges: 50*, 56*, 60*

I recently took the 5w out of my bag to make way for another wedge.

I don't have problems hitting my long irons.

one.. I dropped my three iron in favor of a 4 hybrid. (still have the 4 iron)

I like it, i can use it in the rough, tee shots, anything really.

i also just dropped my 2 iron in favor of a 64 also =D that things a stroke saver.

i have a 3 and a 4 hybrid, i like them both but prefer irons.

I carry one hybrid, a Titleist 585H 21* that replaces my 3 iron. I just don't hit the 3 iron consistently enough to warrant keeping it in the bag, although I do hit my 4 iron consistently enough that that's why it is in there.

Currently none......waiting on a 7 wood to arrive....taking way too long to get here.....delays at Ping is what my store said.

I'll most likely add a 3-4 hybrid next.

I carry TM Burner #3 and #5 hybrids. I kept the 5-iron in the bag for the first couple of rounds and forced myself to use the #5 hybrid. About a half dozen shots with the hybrid convinced me that the success rate of the 5-IRON was much less than with the hybrid.

Now, my 3, 4 and 5 irons are sitting in a spare bag in the garage along with several other clubs that have been replaced by newer sticks that work better.

I carry two, 17° and 21°. With my old X-20 tour 3 iron I was having a lot of trouble to putt the ball on air. With the two hybrids I can make a low shot or high. I'm really in love with them.

Regards!

I carry an 18* and love it... My 3 and 4 iron seem to over sleep my tee times and arent awake when I need them so I am thinking about a 21* and 24* hybrid as well.

**booman32** · October 16, 2008

I used to carry two but now I carry none because I started snap hooking them and after a recent swing change have brought my clubhead speed up enough to hit a 4 iron pretty consistently...

**Jay-Bird** · October 16, 2008

Zero. I may someday go with a 21° but for now I see no reason. I like hitting 3 or 4 iron.

**EquipmentJunkie** · October 16, 2008

I carry one 22* (3 iron replacement), but I have more at my disposal (2,4,5) depending on the course layout and how my swing happens to be at any given day.

**Caddyshack** · October 16, 2008

Just the one a 19° i pretty much only use it off the tee on short or tight par 4's dont use it off the deck much as i hit my long irons just fine... if only i could putt id be off single figures :(

**wrx_junki** · October 16, 2008

Used to carry both 3 iron and 19* hybrid but no longer can hit the 3 iron so took it out and just use the 19* hybrid for anything in the ~200 yard range.
