Hi,

I'm a fairly new golfer (started in 2008 and currently at 19.1 hcp). I'm 27 years old and in quite good physical shape. My standard ball-flight is a medium-high draw.
My average/expected length with the long clubs are as follows:

Driver: ~270 yards
Hybrid, 18°: ~220 yards
4-iron: ~200 yards

On some courses I regulary play, I often miss a club between the hybrid and 4-iron on long par 3:s. I really like hitting my 4-iron, which I feel gives more control compared to the hybrid. So my plan is to try and get a 3-iron for my set. Since I have 4 wedges, that would get my a total of 14 clubs. However I often feel (especially on par 5:s) that I would benefit from a longer club below the driver. I'm thinking of replacing the 18° Cobra hybrid with either a 16° Cobra Baffler TWS or even better a Titleist 909H 15°. With the two latter, can I expect hitting at least 230-235? I feel hybrids are easier to hit from the FW compared to a 3-wood, however I have not tested hybrids with a lower loft that 17° before.

Thanks for any tips!
Driver: Titleist 909D2 9.5°, Aldila Voodoo X-flex
Hybrids: Titleist 909H 15° & 21°, Aldila Voodoo S-flex
Irons: Cobra FP II, 4I-GW, NS Pro 1030H S-flex
Wedges: Titleist Vokey Spin Milled 56°/14° and 60°/4°
