Gapping? Rogue 4H-Rogue 5i.

[UnbreakableBoy]

I have an issue I didn’t foresee. I recently got Rogue irons 5-P and Rogue 2H & 4H. All in stuff Shaft. The 5 is at 23’ and the 4H is at 21’ I’m hitting the hybrids a country mile and the irons as well. I’m in love with them. However, it seems my 4H can go about 210-215 while my five iron I can get out to about 190 or so. I was looking at a 5H Apex or Rogue and it’s the same loft as the five iron... I’m confident that would blow past the iron. So is it legit to get a hybrid with similar loft... knowing they’ll both hit very different distances (which is what I’m wanting)? Does that make sense and would the 5H be the right club to bridge this gap? Thanks.

Could work. Why not take your 5i and 4H to a golfshop with trackman. Hit some balls with them and the 5H. You will then know if it does bridge the gap. Not sure if stuff shafts are for sale at golfshops though...  😇

This sounds kind of dumb, but learn to hit the 5i to the right distance.

if the flight is too high you might me setting up too far forward or something?

Do you have a launch monitor like Mevo?

That can tell you a lot.

See if your hybrid hosels can be adjusted to increase loft.

Why not try gripping down, on the 4H, and see if you can produce a reliable 200 yard shot?  There is no reason longer clubs have to be played for maximum distance every time.
