Anyone play a 2H? AND Need to Take a Club Out.

[iammpspeer]

Hey, I was wondering what everyone's thoughts were on playing a 2H over a 5W?

I also need to find a club to take out of my bag.. I usually just pick one depending upon the course to take out, but I actually wanted to find a definitive club to take out permanently. Did anyone find a club that does do much (I know, vague, but w/e)? I like 3 wedges, but I also think I could manage with two, but I would need to get different degrees (wich I am in the market for wedges anyway).

I play a 2h. As my signature says its the Callaway FT series. The only reason I have it is because it has the look of a 5 wood, but 1* degree stronger (18*) I love the thing. That being said, I could go either way, 2h or 5w. I went 2h becuase it will go maybe that tiny bit longer.

I play the fusion #2 which is 17 degrees and it replaced my old 975 18.5 5 wood.Here on Long Island we have a lot of Kentucky Blue rough and the 5 wood just was not getting me out with enough juice anymore so I made the switch and could not be happier.I hit it up to 225 and STRAIGHT so it was a good swap for me.

I like fairway woods over hybrids. I just can't swing the hybrid like an iron, it just doesn't happen for me. I plan on getting a 5W soon and maybe cutting it down an inch or two.

I play a 2H mainly because of #11 at my club...i have to hit my 3H 100 percent perfect to reach it and even then i can't reach a back pin location (205 up a fairly large hill) and a 3W is to much club...

I put in a 2H this past year and just took out my 3I. I use a 4-W set up then the 2H. I didn't have a 5W though. The 5W and 2H are going to be pretty similar, at least as far as what you can get out of them. With you bag, I would decide on the 2H or 5W and also take out the 3I. I have found that I can hit my 2H a variety of distances to cover any gaps between what I can hit a 4I and 3W. The hybrid is pretty easy to 'take a little off' so it can cover a lot of different distances. You might be able to do the same thing.

The other question to ask is how many times you hit them. Do you find yourself in a bunch of situations (3-4 or more a round) when you are pulling the 3I or 5W? You might be better served to try and make one club useful for a variety of distances where the success rate is low anyway, than to take our a scoring club.

I took my 3W out to make room for my 2H. The 3W was my least accurate club and I love the 2H.

I do miss my 3W, and want to get it back into the bag, but I have to get better hitting it before it goes back in.

If the 3W makes it back, my LW, GW, or 3H will have to leave.

If you really want a 2hybrid, you could get rid of the 52 and 56 and pick up a 54. That solves both problems.

I replaced my 5 wood with my 2 hybrid.I hit both clubs the same distance.

I love my 2H its a very solid club, but i also love my 5W so i decided to carry only 4 irons due to my 4 hybrids and 4 wedges. I would suggest to you to remove possibly a 4 or 6 iron because anytime you are hitting a 4 unless you love it you should probably be hitting club that is easier to hit anyway.

I'm missing this very gap in my bag at the moment and am teetering between these very clubs.

I am leaning towards the 5 wood.

[Buckeyegolf10]

I play a titleist 909 2hybrid or a mizuno mp52 3 iron depending on the course im playing if the course has a lot of left to right tee shots ill put the hybrid in since i primarily hit a draw with the 3iron and the hybrid i move right a little better.

Exactly what I've done.

[iammpspeer]

Exactly what I've done.

I have been thinking about only having 3 wedges, but my distances are as follows:

PW-~125-130 52*-~115 56-~85-90(This is terrible(for me), I would like it around 100yds) 60-~70 That being said, if I move to a 54 and take out the 56 and 52, will that the 54* give me enough versatility to hit these shots? I would assume a 54* for me would be around 105-110, hopefully. Then if I go to a 54, I almost feel obligated to go to a 58 to compensate for the lower end of the 56. so I would again assume that a 58 would go around 80yds I would hope. Furthermore, does anyone play a 58 as their highest lofted club, and does it handle itself well around the green in comparison to a 60? Groovezilla, where do you play, looks like we are located in the same area?

I play a 2H instead of a 5W and I took the 4iron out of my bag. Never hit it anyway.
