I'm a hacker and have found the square type with some mild offset are the easiest for me to hit.

I've only tried 3 different hybrid brands so I can only say that I fell in love with the ones I tried like the ones in my sig line....and had to add them to the bag. In with the hybrids and out with the long irons.


Don't do like I did....range test a bunch of different types.
909D Comp 9.5* (house MATRIX OZIK XCON-6)
Burner Superfast 3 & 5 woods (house MATRIX OZIK XCON-4.8)
G15 Hybrid 23* (AWT shaft)
G5 5 iron-PW-46*, UW-50*, SW-54 & LW-58 (AWT shaft)

Everyone is going to list the hybrid they carry, naturally. That's because they went to the store, hit a bunch, found one they liked, and bought it. Or something like that.

But really, its up to the individual.

I went with the Ping G10 18* hybrid and I love it.



My best advice is to go to a store, grab a bunch, and hit them. See which one feels the best for you. I went to Golf.com and read some reviews on hybrids before I went to the store, and narrowed my search from there.

G5 Driver (10.5*)
T40 Tour 3 Wood (15*)
G10 Hybrid (18*)
MX-200
588 Tour Action SW (56*) 2 Ball SRT

Callaway FT, Adams Idea Pro, or Titleist 585H. Gotta give the Sonartec MD a nod for being the first player's hybrid. I wish they were still around.

Yesterday I went to demo station just to try tiltleist 909H before buying. I am sure I don't hit the ball well enough to play Titleist Woods, but even so, I buyed a 983K and I am happy with it, so I was thinking to do the same with hybrids. Usually no chunky-looking club gives me confidence; I have allways tried, but they do not feel well for me; so I just went to the range because the salesman "forced" me to do so...

...and man I am glad I did! I felt in love with Cleveland Hi-Bores, just gorgeous IMHO. First demo shots in my life that make me change my mind...

      Day 129: 5/4/24 Stack training but could not certify my warmup speed. Dealing with a pulled neck muscle. Chips and pitches at a local course for about 15 minutes.

      At What Distance do Your Pull Our Your Range Finder?

      By mchepp ·

      Typically less than 50. I find this can be affected by the "CART" signs on a given course. I don't like taking my rangefinder out of the cart and carrying it around to the green. I am very fearful I will leave it somewhere.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By JetFan1983 ·

      First ever holed out greenside bunker shot! It's crazy it took this long to finally get one during a round, but the cold streak is officially over. Hole 6 on the Palmer Course at PGAN. I hit my driver like 225 into a really stiff wind, then worm burned a hybrid into the bunker. I was about I dunno, 40-45 feet away. Birdie! Let's go! The red Xs the approximate location of each shot.  Really fun!!

      Day 23: Rained all day, so no ball hitting. Worked indoors on top of the backswing feel, and also putted around the living room working on bead.

      Played Four Oaks in Dracut today going back to the 2 man scramble match play format. My brother and I shot a team 81 winning 3 and 2. Had so many good shots today using a more centered turn. Seems to have really iginited my golf game. We'll see if I can keep it going.
