I'm currently looking for a club to fill the gab between my 3 wood (245 club) and 4 iron (215 club). Usually I would go into the shop and hit a bunch of different degree hybrids to see which fills the gap best, but being a lefty it is difficult to test out all the different options. My 4 iron is 22* and my 3 wood is set at 16*. Would a 19* hybrid probably be the best choice as a happy medium? I'm thinking it would be I'd just like some input on how a 19* hybrid compares to a 19* 5 wood distance wise. Thanks

Im a lefty and I chucked the 5w out of the bag years ago. I carry the same 4-GW set up of irons in the bag (Adams 1208 steel uniflex). I use a 19 degree Wilson pro staff multi metal hybrid to fill the gap. Its pure smoke off the tee or carpet. I also carry a 22 degree deep red hybrid #4 due to the fact that it carries a little further than my 4 iron. Check out 2nd swing on ebay they have a pretty good variety for lefties. In fact nobody was paying attention and I snagged a sweet dunlop 3wood for 2 bucks last week.:-)

An old pro once told me this....."No matter what youre going through in life....Never sell your golf clubs."

Thanks for the response, I'll check it out. Is the hybrid about as long as the 5 wood was?
