Hybrid Golf Clubs are Here To Stay

The first designs for the hybrid golf club was first introduced in the early 1980's. As the styling and technology has improved, we see more distance and more accurate shots being made with this style of golf club. They have made the average golfer better with its ability for the golfer to hit longer balls with more precision. With its lightweight construction, newcomers to the sport as well as those not as strong can have success with these clubs.

These clubs are made with lighter weight materials that offer more control and flexibility. They may be made from a combination of steel, carbon, graphite, and fiberglass. With the head of the club different that typical ones, it contains a polymer filling which gives it a different center of gravity making it easier to swing. Its head gives the club a spring action that will give better loft and distance.

This club is meant to take the place of other clubs in your bag. It acts like a wood and an iron, put together. You can hit the ball on top of the grass as opposed to hitting the dirt, creating that dreaded divot. You will get more distance and a more accurate shot through this design. The club is balanced to your benefit and the lightweight design gives you a better swing.

Hybrid utility clubs are all purpose clubs found in many golf bags. It utilizes the wood and iron design in combination to get even the most seasoned golfer out of the rough. The shorter shaft for tighter spots, the loft of an iron, and the distance of a wood all into one has replaced some golf clubs in the bag as an all in one.

For a beginner or for those with slower swings, the hybrid allows you to get the distance you need. Often the wood would do the job for you or an iron in some situations, the hybrid gives you the club that can do both jobs. With larger face areas, you can have the power and distance for your game.

It took the professional golfer awhile to embrace the new technology in golfing, but now more than 80% of the golfers on tour have at least one hybrid if not all hybrid clubs in their bags. The cost on some clubs can be more than $400 per club, but there are also companies offering the same golfing technology and a discounted price.
