So I recently picked up a set of G15 irons along with 52 and 58 vokeys. I have a Buner 2.0 driver that I LOVE. My 3-wood is just a titleist 975f 13.5 andy 5-wood is a Walmart club that I've had for about 8-9 years(no need to fix what you hit well right?). The g15 is a 4-pw set, which meant I was only carrying 13 clubs. I was really struggling with the decision of a 64 vokey or a 3 hybrid. I went out and played 18 yesterday. At the end of the front 9 I noticed a demo day going on at the driving range. I hit a 64 vokey and liked it, but I bladed a few shots. I walked to the ping tent and the guy looked at me, looked at my bag, then handed me a g20 23 degree hybrid. I hit a couple shots, then he gave me a stiff shaft. WOW! I hit a few with a fade, but overall I was crushing them long and pretty straight. It amazed me how easy the club was to hit. I finished the back 9 and went straight to my local Golf HQ to by the g15 version. If anyone is debating on a hybrid or not, I highly suggest trying them out. I thought they were just a crutch for new players and wouldn't have anything to do with them, until I tried it out and fell in love. Try one out!

What? Despite a huge number, probably a MAJORITY of PGA Tour members having at least one?

What on earth would make you have such an opinion?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I think people just enjoy trolling on these forums. There are so many people that just post to insult others...I think I'm pretty much done here.

Note: Not all hybrids are easy to hit. My early experience with them was bad. Out of light rough they were great, but off the fairway or tee had a real problem spraying shots.

I have since found hybrids I can hit - a Pro or Tour head in regular flex - but still prefer higher lofted fairway woods.

Focus, connect and follow through!
