I'm hitting my driver around 200. I hit my 4hybrid around 160-165 when I make good contact. I'm looking for a club to hit around 180 from the fairway. I haven't hit a fairway wood since I started (less than a year ago) because I made bad contact and it was a cheap club. Would a three hybrid work as well as a fairway wood or are more expensive fairway woods more forgiving? Any suggestions ?

If you feel like your good or comfortable with your hybrid then its ok to go with a 3 or 2 hybrid.  They aren't the same really though.  From what I understand the hybrids are easier to get up into the air and are easier to hit out of the rough.  The three wood is going to most likely have less loft so it will have a lower ball flight but be better off the tee.  I have a 15 degree 3 wood and a 19 & 22 degree hybrid.  If you play a courses where you would like something  a little easier to hit off the tee a 3 wood is a good choice.  Also a lot of guys are going to a 4 wood its kind of in the middle of your hybrid and a 3 wood.

    • Day 18: drill swing in my garage after getting home from work. 
    • Day 32 (12 Dec 25) - What was the Friday shootout became a practice round due to lack of enough players (temps kept a lot of the regulars home).  Used it to dial in some playing distances as I played back a set of tees to force alternate club selections.  Plenty of long approaches - every club was put into action thru the course is 18 holes. Was not a GiR day but rather nGIR (5 up and down pars).  Pin placement was tough - the smallest miss would see the ball roll just as far past or even off the green.  Was a great day of battling what the course was dealing. Overall - I finished 5 strokes over my average score of 86. 
    • Day 122 12-12 flow drill again tonight. Doing the drill quite a bit, i like it and its helped alot. Focus on rotating and getting to lead side. Only hit a few foam balls. Things were clicking tonight. 
    • I was at a golf clinic yesterday with Trevor Immelman and he answered a question about which is better. His take was that you need both. Block practice is for working on something specific.    p.s. I’m curious if the question asked is on here. 
    • Day 438 - 2025-12-12 Did a little work with the Swingyde. Backswing can actually be a little tiny bit less rolled now, which is a good thing. I'm doing a good job of not really doing the wrist stuff.
