Because someone in the internet said "just swing them just like irons, they are just more forgiving." SET UP IS IMPORTANT!!!!!! Totally wrong take for me. Thank you for showing the right way.

@USGOLFTVshow2 жыл бұрын
Good question, that can be confusing. This can be a bit of a preference from golfer to golfer, but we like to see more of a sweeping blow versus hitting down for more consistency, especially for the average golfer. If you are a little higher skill level and faster swing speed, you may be able to get a little more distance with a slight descending strike and lower ball flight. However, the average golfer gets most benefit from hybrids getting the ball up in the air and down the fairway easier than long irons. Thanks for watching!
@2Eaglez2 жыл бұрын
Your set up position is spot on for the hybrids most people use (3 and 4 hybrid). As an older senior golfer, I carry 18, 21, 25, 30, and 35 degree hybrids. I have found that on the higher lofted hybrids the ball position changes to about one ball forward of a short iron to make the best contact, but the consistency of distance is not as good. Would you consider doing a video on higher lofted hybrids?

I’ve had a hard time getting good results with a hybrid. I’ve wanted one to fill a gap, just as a distance club with less distance than the 5w but more than a 3i. I don’t have much of an issue hitting a 3i or 3w/5w off the turf. I’ve written them off as a club for me. I think at the very end of the video you hit on what might make it something for me to consider, tempo and just don’t swing it hard.
@suryavaraman.42773 жыл бұрын
We are used to swinging hard so UDI or or long iron works well as we have fast club head speed. I use a 2 iron UDI off the tee and on long par 4 and 5. Learned to control the club. Can hit 240 off the tee. And 200 on the fairway. I can't hit woods or drivers to safe my life. All irons. All one length. Thinking of trying a hybrid but you're comment made me think otherwise...
@achav0123 жыл бұрын
@@suryavaraman.4277 yeah at this point it’s hard for me to justify. If I really rip on a 3i I can get 250 out of it. For me and the courses I play I don’t need to get much more than that for a second into the longest par 5s. I ditched my 5w and added a 4th wedge instead and I can either rip on the 3i and hope it runs or try to lay off a 3w hitting a high fade to fill my gap. Having gaps filled at the bottom of my bag is more important to me at this point, again with the courses I play I’m usually within a PW into greens, long-mid irons are rare and usually follow a poor tee shot.

I know the problem is between my ears but I've yet to learn to hit a hybrid, 3w, or 5w. I might hit 1 out of 5 decent but most are topped, off the toe, off the heel, fat... So when playing, I have nothing between my driver and 4 iron. I keep hearing hybrids are easier to hit than long irons. I don't get it.

Love my hybrids. I can draw them on demand and ity saves me some pain on the course. Tight fairways, with trees and jungle both sides. Punch the ball right out and turn the corner.

Why the emphasis on touching the knees at the finish? By the time those knees touch the ball is long gone.

That’s more than “slightly” forward of center.

I just watched a U.S. Golf TV video and he said to hit down and center placement. lol

Maybe I'm just old school, but I'll take my long irons over hybrid every time.

The club I hate. 95% of the time I swing it, I top the ball & it travels about 50 yds🤬🤬
