Hybrid Golf clubs: See If They Are they Right For You

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.

On the other hand, if you are facing the same shot with a hybrid golf club, the story is much different. Even with a poor swing, most shots will still end up better than if you had used a long iron. Now consider hitting the same shot out of the rough or a bad lie. In this situation the advantage given by hybrid golf clubs is even greater.

So, why how is it that the same shot using a hybrid golf club ends up better than a long iron? There are a few reasons for this. As most golfers know, there is a much greater chance of hitting a poor shot when using long irons. If you hit the ground before you hit the ball, you will not get much distance and you may also end up hitting the ball right or left, bringing any trouble on the hole into play. On the other hand, if you hit the ball thin you are also likely to slice or hook the ball, bringing trouble right or left into play even though your distance might not have been too bad. In the same situation, if you put the same swing on the ball while using a hybrid golf club, you have a good chance of your ball ending up in decent shape. The hybrid will still give you loft and generally keep the ball going straight, so chances are your ball will still be in play without taking a penalty shot.

It is a given that hybrid golf clubs are easier and more forgiving than long irons. Anyone undecided about whether they should use hybrids should join the growing hybrid crown right away. With the same golf swing you use with your long irons, you can make an immediate impact on your golf score by switching to hybrids. You will almost certainly lower your golf score right away due to the hybrid's forgiving design. There is nothing else you can do that will impact your golf score so quickly, and that is the single best reason for you to change to hybrid golf clubs today.
