Why You Should Be Using Hybrid Golf Clubs

Why You Should Be Using Hybrid Golf Clubs

Golf Clubs

We have all seen the growing trend of more and more golfers using hybrid golf clubs, and you might find yourself wondering if they are for you. Well, I am here to tell you there are a lot more reasons for you to add hybrid golf clubs to your bag than there are to not add them.

The first question usually is, why? Well, the simple answer to that is hybrid golf clubs are easier and more forgiving to use than long irons. Long irons are widely considered the hardest clubs to hit accurately. Imagine, you are standing close to 200 yards from the green. Sand in front of the green, maybe on more than one side of it. Water may be in play as well. can you confidently put a swing on the ball with your 3 or 4 iron that will NOT end up in trouble a high percentage of the time? Most casual golfers would have to say no if they were to answer honestly. Now, picture the same shot with a hybrid. If you put a bad swing on the ball, the chances are it will end up in a much better place than if you put the same bad swing on the ball with your long iron. Imagine if you try the same shot out of heavy rough. The advantage hybrids give you is amplified even more.

Why does the hybrid end up better in the example above? Well, there are a couple of reasons. It is very easy to swing a long iron and hit the ball fat, meaning you hit the ground too soon and the club either skips into the ball, or sticks in the ground and the ball is propelled by nothing but the divot you dug up. The thing about either of those results is not only will you not get the correct distance, but you have no way of knowing if the ball will be way off course left or right in addition to being short. This brings all the trouble spots on the golf hole into play. If you hit the ball thin you may get more distance, but the trouble right and left are still in play, and with a thin shot usually even worse. Put the same swing on the ball with a hybrid and the results are very different. If you hit the shot fat, the wider sole of the club will not stick in the ground. The ball will still get loft and will still get decent distance. The real key though is the ball will likely still go straight! So you put a bad swing on the ball and you still got it up in the air and got decent distance on it. The odds are, you are still in play and live to hit another shot instead of dropping a ball and taking a penalty stroke.

Hybrid golf clubs are more forgiving and easier to hit than long irons That is the simple truth. If you are on the fence about using them, you need to jump over onto the side of hybrid golf clubs. You can start using hybrid golf clubs and make absolutely zero changes to your swing. the result is likely to be a lower number on your scorecard the very first time you use your hybrids. I can't think of any one thing you can do today that will make tomorrow's golf score lower. That is a powerful statement and the only real reason you need to add hybrid golf clubs to your bag today!
