I have a taylormade 2011 rescue club 3 hybrid and I'm looking to get another hybrid. My question is is it ok to buy a hybrid that is a different brand?

Yeah but would you have different brand hybrids?

If it fits a gap, play what you want. Obviously having the same brand will have the hybrids feeling the same. I play a different brand driver, from my fairway wood, from my hybrid, from my irons, from my wedges. It doesn't bother me much at all.

I suggest hitting the Callaway X2 Hot hybrids. I didn't like any hybrids I hit until I got a hold of these. But to answer your question I would if I hit them good. I do like the thought of having 2 of the same only because they would have matching shafts but I don't honestly know how much that matters. I also like that they would look the same at address but again that's more me being weird.

I prefer the Pro versions of those hybrids. A bit smaller, but just feels like a great club. Though my favorite still has to be the Titleist Hybrids. Those I could game all the time. The SLDR hybrids are a bit too bulky for me.

I didn't feel comfortable with the titleist I really liked the way it looked but I think it's above my skill level. I have a pro version of the x hot 3 wood that I cant hit at all if you want it ;-). When I got mine I hit about every hybrid golfsmith had and it was between the x2 hot and the Nike Corvet.

... Obviously having the same brand will have the hybrids feeling the same. ...

If the different model hybrids will deliver you different shot benefit, then go for it.

But, if you get a matching second hybrid, the set-up and feel will be the same. This takes needless variation out of your game.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By iacas · Posted

      Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.

      Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
